it is inaccurate to say MGK lived in Cleveland

this is just plain wrong...he lived in Shaker Heights which is a middle- to upper-class suburb of cleveland. for rappers and other artists laying claim to understanding "urban" issues, it is crucial to get it right as to whether or not they truly lived an urban existence [think about the issues with Vanilla Ice and his phony bio...this is the same issue].

cleveland is the home of the 1968 Hough race riots, while shaker heights is, well, in their own words: "Shaker Heights is an exceptional place. Here you will discover a quality of life that is second to none. Historic architecture, magnificent tree-lined streets and parks, diverse and welcoming neighborhoods, and well-supported, top-notch schools are sources of tremendous community pride." [1]

it hurts the credibility of wikipedia that they publish this inaccuracy and won't allow a member of the public to edit/correct it [which is the very basis of their model and success].
