An up-and-coming ATL rapper is drawing a line in the sand about who can and who can’t claim her weed — and hypothetically…kinda shuns a lot of the big names that are her home.
Young MC is Amrita the Greatand she’s got a new single – “Sorry I’m Not Sorry” – that got people from the greater Atlanta metro area completely mad about who they actually were, and who wasn’t.
You should see what Omeretta considers “Atlanta” – she kinda turned it into a local geography lesson, to become very specific.
In the NOT ATLANTA list: Forest Park, Lindbergh, Roswell, Gwinnett, Clayton County, Lithonia, Decatur, and most northern and southern parts of the city (such as College Park and East Point, for example).
While it doesn’t say exactly where exactly its city limits lie, it appears that the OTG may rely on the designated areas that city officials use to draw a proper map of Atlanta.
If that’s true, there’s a good selection of legendary artists that I’ve divided into two camps – those with actual roots in ATL, and those without.
Based on what she says here, one would think that she might think that rappers and singers like her LudacrisAnd the OutKastAnd the MonicaAnd the Young GookAnd the 2 chains Others are not from Atlanta. They mostly grew up in the suburbs, south of the main city or elsewhere.
Along the same lines, Omeretta also seems to say Migos They are not from Atlanta, as they hail from Lawrenceville (part of the Gwinnett Company) – which is less controversial, as this is far from Atlanta itself.
Those who can be safely in Amrita’s eyes… future (Kirkwood), Lil Baby (Auckland city), TI (Bankhead) and Gucci mane (East Atlanta). Their trampled lands seemed to lie within Atlanta’s actual borders, as it were.
Now, as you might imagine… the response from “Atlanta Twitter” is fierce… with many already agreeing with Omeretta, and others saying she’s a long way from any weird reason. It should also be noted that she went and filmed this video in Truist Park – about 10 miles north of downtown – which was not lost on people… and it seemed to contradict her point of view.
None of the aforementioned icons seem to have responded to Omeretta’s club count in or out yet…but wouldn’t it be something if they did, and actually made a song about it???
All of these musicians are particularly proud of where they come from, and we wouldn’t be surprised if one or more of them had something to say about it. 👀
