I agree it should be replaced with something shorter. What's there is probably better off at music history of New York City, with this article containing a lot more on music industry, education, festivals and parades, and such. Tuf-Kat 02:35, 28 November 2006 (UTC) reply

Is it just me or don't you think something about Frank Sinatra should be added in this article — Preceding unsigned comment added by C falco ( talk • contribs) 19:52, 10 February 2007 (UTC) reply

Joey Bada$$ is not from Bed Stuy but is from East Flatbush. I still think he’s worth being mentioned and I suggest talking about the “Beast Coast” movement of Flatbush-based acts like the rest of Pro Era, the Flatbush Zombies, and the Underachievers. Tmojeed ( talk) 16:47, 16 June 2018 (UTC) reply
