Sorry, but this is wrong. Your source is absolutely incorrect. Sao Paulo is far more of an Economic Hub for South America, which is far bigger than just Mexico and Central America.
How am I wrong, because you said so? Post something to substantiate your claim.

Yes, these are MSA, my stat is CSA. Combined Statistical Area. Both come from the Bureau of Economic Analysis.
CSA is what combines DC and Baltimore, SF and San Jose etc. In that CSA Ranking, DC actually tops Chicago and The Bay Area is only 15 Billion dollars behind Chicago, A CSA with over 2 Million more people.

Tupac did Not rep the bay all the time. I listen to plenty of his music. He hardly repped the bay at all. And those terms did not come from the bay.
Hella, oaklandish, hyphy, grimey, and bruh, are terms that come from the bay. Foshizzle is straight long beach buddy, were you even a teen ager in the 90's?
If you want to know about 2Pac's connection with the Bay, rent/check out the DVD "Thug Angel." It's the best Pac DVD I've seen, and I've owned it since it was brand new. He makes it clear how integral Oakland was in who he became as a man, and his whole career as a rapper had its roots in Marin City and Oakland. Aside from that, he always repped California as a whole more than he repped anywhere else. He never sold out on the Bay, he just grew to love and become a part of LA towards his demise.
As for "foshizzle," I always knew that to originate from E-40, but to be popularized by Snoop. I was a teenager in the 90s, just fyi.
Wiki is not a credible source. Its people's opinion and often times conflict.
See what I mean...
Are you dense? South America is a continent, Latin America is a super-region composed of South America, Central America, Mexico, and the Caribbean, as well as parts of the United States.

You still haven't provided any links that prove I'm wrong.

Actually the only dense I see is Chicago boosters who cant stand whenever any other city is named second to NY.
Ever.
As far as Latin America, Wikipedia says:

São Paulo remains the business hub of Latin America.

But Ive definitely proven that despite being much larger, Chicago's aggregate income and total GDP is actually in the same range as DC and the Bay Area.
