Why is the north side never included?

Question

Like in rap songs, usually the east side, south side, and west side is included. Why is there never the north side?

For example: the song by Young Jeezy ft. Kanye West - PUT ON doesn't included the north side.

Answer 1

The north means snow people who don't appreciate jungle music.

Answer 2

North to Alaska - not a rap song, but the only north song I know.

Answer 3

Not too many rappers from Helena or St. Paul.

And what are you talking about North Side of L.A.

East side is east coast, same with west side, and its usually just the south not south side. When south side is referenced in songs it generally is the geographic region of a city, usually South Side Queens or Chicago.

Answer 4

Because the north side of major cities tends to be where the richer neighborhoods are. Rich neighborhoods don't produce the people who make rap.

Answer 5

The north side is usually the good part of town.

Answer 6

Doesn't have a ring to it, I'm afraid : (

Also, I believe those shout outs originated in LA, where the north side of town is by and large fairly affluent, and therefore not as hip, nor "gangster".
