Nio Tha Gift


The Bay Area was big in the early 2000's with the Thizzle movement headed by Mac Dre.  Then he died in '04, and bay music lost momentum.  In '06, Tell Me When To Go by E-40 and Keak brought the bay into the mainstream again with the hyphy movement.  Then the bay stalled again, until about 2009 with the MOB movement headed by J Stalin, the Jacka, and Husalah.  Besides Roach Gigz, nobody from the bay is really getting any radio time, and even people in the bay are stickin with the main mob guys.   Its a shame, because Nio Tha Gift is better than most of the guys getting all the respect. Nio's the truth! Best rapper out of the bay area in years.
