I don't know why some of you guys keep trying to lump all rap together. There are many different types of rappers that cover many different topics, with many different vibes and different types of crowds they attract.
There isnt just one "typical hip hop show"
The atmosphere at a Waka Flocka concert (video #1) isnt going to be anything like the atmosphere where a rapper like Common performs (video #2)

Down South....at several of the clubs those people are fighting because of the music scene, because there are several songs by the likes of people like Lil Jon, Waka Flocka, Three Six MAfia, Pastor Troy, etc. encouraging the crowd to fight. You have songs promoting guys to "throw it up" (put their side of town, gang, neighborhood in the air by way of hand gestures) and then a fight breaks out between rivals which can sometimes lead into parking lot shootings when the club lets out. I can imagine how rough it can get at some metal or hardcore punk shows, but I have to guess they dont erupt into murder scenes outside at the rate of down south "crunk" clubs, all stemming from a song played on the inside of the club. .....shame
Ain't no thug fighting because of a song. I've seen that crap and they will fight and shoot in-spite of the rappers lyrics.
Chicago wins this.Chicago emerging hip hop scene is filled with edgy music.The word "Opp" is used allot, which means opposition meaning enemy.Music is reflection of whats going on in the city.
I don't know. Ill Bill and necro are from new York. Check out some of there music. It actually makes you cringe on pain from how violent his music is. Also Philly has a lot of violent artists
