Other than 106th & Park I do not remember seeing Tell Me When To Go. Same goes for Ghost Ride It. Can we even vote for it on 106? But when U & Dat hit, it was everywhere. Whats going on BET?

You're trippin. Tell Me When To Go got hella play on MTV and BET both. It made the countdown on 106 &Park like 5-10times I remember seeing it at #6, and I used to see it on Rap City all the time too.

As far as Ghost Ride It, its not getting play any where, radio, mtv, bet, etc. So don't blame BET for it. It has no fucking buzz and the song sucks.

BET Rap City had a whole week dedicated to hyphy.That shits just fuckin wack and nobody outside the bay is intrested.

Yea, I forgot to mention that. They also had the Hype On Hyphy special which was basically kind of like "My Block The Bay Area" on MTV.

For some of you it may be hard to believe, but the Bay rap scene is NOT what it used to be. A lot of the shit coming out is pure garbage, open up your eyes and quit blaming everyone else.

B.E.T. IS BOOTSIE!! I remember when they had E-40 performing TELL ME WHEN TO GO and the girl introduced KEAK DA SNEAK as KEAK DA SHEEK!! Hahah I was rolling...

But yea you can't get mad at them for not playing it on their count down but you can get mad at them for not playing it at all. If you watch TV you're basically being fed what to watch same with the radio that's why I keep my ear to the street. Comcast ON DEMAND has some Bay videos in their music section, just an FYI

why would they just a bunch of dreads shaking and cars drivin around with their doors open doesn't make for interesting video. Not dissing but lets just keep it real... But the other reality other then the fact most of the music sucked and sucks is that we on the west need our own shit! our own T.V stations , radio love, magazines and the ones we have need our support in order to get bigger. The east has never showed the west love don't expect em 2 now.
