Take a look around bro. Bay rap is alive and kicking. It may be evolving, but to say it is dead is completely fallacious. If it was dead, you think any threads would be up here? You think Jacka would be selling out venues around the Bay? You think Ya Boy would be buzzing around the country? You think Keak would be featuring Prodigy of Mobb Deep and The Alkemist on his new CD? What about Mistah F.A.B.? Dude was #3 on 106 and Park yesterday and still climbing. If Bay rap was dead would he be freestylin' with a legend like Supernatural at a huge convention in Chicago? Bay rap is alive and kicking. All you gotta do is open your eyes to see, and perk up your ears to hear it slapping all around the country. Is Bay rap as acknowledged or respected as I would like? No. But it is certainly doing it's best to mature and become a mainstay region in the game. Bay Rap needs the support of those in the area to lift it up to become even greater. Haters like you are ignorant and detrimental to the area's well being. When the Bay eventually gets what it deserves I can't wait to here you repping that shit.

No disrespect, but shut the fuck up with that shit, you obviously ain't looking in the right places for good music or even trying, stop fucking listening to the radio, buy a CD, pop it in the stereo and listen to the whole album all the way through not just the singles. You need some good mixtapes, they got hella blogs and sites out there to update you on them, ain't no excuse at all for not enjoying bay rap at any time, same with any area's music.

On some real shit the Bay Rap scene ain't dead....it's just floooooooded with hella dudes jumpin on a gimmick. Dudes ain't really being themselves.....everybody on the same blueprint. Back in the day dudes was doing themselves.....Waaay different styles......you could tell the difference between an artist by the music behind the lyrics a mac dre beat sounded hella differnet from a too short, 11/5, rbl posse, E40, luniz, celly cel, spice 1, IMP, messy marv, san quinn, ray luv, mac mall, seagram, delinquents, etccc...beat.....All these new artists are not evolving and seperating themselves with there own distinct style.....producers. Got to admit that there are a few here and there doing the damn thing. step up^^^^^
