With so many classics coming out of the ATL in the last couple decades there's no shortage of material to pull from. You can bet this includes locations from lyrics by Southern staples like Outkast, Bubba Sparxxx, Killer Mike & Ludacris. ### "To quote Andre 3000, The South got somethin' to say, and that's all I got to say." *- Jay Shells* Describing the experience, Shells says "Atlanta has such a rich and vibrant [hip hop](https://sensimedia.net/radio/stations/hiphop) culture, it was a must to get down there as soon as I could and the fine folks from the [A3C festival](http://www.a3cfestival.com/) helped to get us down there and showed us a great time." ### "It was an honor and pleasure to work with Jay Shells and we hope to run it back in October for round 2!!!" *- Mike Walbert/A3C* ![The Success & Relevance of Jay Shells' Rap Quotes Project](https://sensimedia.net/./images/stories/jayshells-rapquotes.sq.jpg)The Rap Quotes project began in 2013 in [New York](http://www.jayshells.com/#/therapquotes/) and has continued cataloging all site-specific rap lyrics by posting them as street signs in the exact locations mentioned. The project now includes over 75 signs in both [New York](http://www.jayshells.com/#/therapquotes/) and [Los Angeles](http://www.jayshells.com/#/therapquotes/) with another 22 in Philadelphia. Originally Shells didn't mind and almost encouraged people to take the signs but he's since had a change of heart. He'd now prefer people leave them, saying "I hope these signs last. In the past, I've given my thumbs up for people to steal them but...I hope that they stay, it's fun for people to find them in the wild. Although I can't control that."
