A complex city, Memphis is the richest for musical heritage yet has the number one crime rate. Memphis is the only city in America where one can be in a movie without owning a SAG card. Memphis is the bluff city and it rocks the socks off any other in the mid-south. The government is run by a crook. The highlights are amazing. It is the only city that voted democratic in the past elections in the state of Tennessee. Memphis is schizophrenic with the good and the bad.

Yes, we do have the highest crime rate in the U.S. and we do have the cheapest hookers across the nation too. But that doesn't mean everyone here is shit. Memphis is the shit, Houston and Atlanta ain't nothing compared to Memphis. Here you're gonna find the realest niggas around. We also got the best music - Memphis is the home to Hip Hop, RnB, Blues, and so many other genres. Plus, Three 6 Mafia, the first black music group to win an Academy Award for Best Song and the first Hip-Hop artists ever to perform there, are from Memphis. By the way, did you know that Memphis Bleek isn't from Memphis? That's right, he's from New York. After he spent some time in Memphis, he chose his name to be Memphis Bleek. Now what does that tell you about Memphis?
Oh, and did I mention that the term "crunk" is from Memphis?
