also it takes time to transform regional success to the nation. look at the south for example. geto boyz had a huge hit with minds playin tricks on me, then outkast dropped they first album.master p came out with no limit and that really opened the door, but only to no limit at that time. then cash money came out in 99 and took the game by storm, but still no south recognition yet. three-6 mafia was doin they thing. but when lil jon dropped, it was game over, the sout had that shit. cuz lil jon had hit after hit after hit. then it just spread to texas when mike jones dropped.
so you see, it takes time. and the key here is that the bay needs to have HUGE hits to establish a foundation and a trust of the majors, so they can invest they promo dollars

fab needs to get off this hyphy shit and start making universal music if he plans on stayin in the majors
really though, "son of a pimp" is one of my favorite albums of all time... and there is only like two or three hyphy tracks... and on that sampling thing, sampling is the foundation of hip-hop.... u cant stop doin that...

Oakland rapper Mistah F.A.B.'s "Ghost Ride It" video has been banned from all media outlets because of the video's use of the Ghostbusters car and logo in the video for the controversial single. Mistah F.A.B.'s "Ghost Ride It" singles touches upon the phenomenon of "ghost riding," which is when the driver stands on the hood of a moving vehicle. According to reps for Mistah F.A.B., who appeared on Fox's Hanity & Colmes show over the subject, the video for the single had already been edited 52 times to meet MTV and BET's guidelines. The video was being aired on MTV2's Unleashed MTV Jams, MTVU and MTV's Sucker Free Countdown when Columbia Pictures threatened legal action over the usage of the Ghostbuster's logo and likeness in the video. In Dec. 2006, the song came under scrutiny when an 18-year-old man and a 36-year-old man died in separate "ghost riding" incidents.

It has nothing to do with the song, just the stuff from the Ghostbusters Movie, the logo and car. Columbia Pictures doesnt want that stuff associated with ghostriding

That song is garbage, stop with the retarded bus riding. That makes no sense, who in the hell wants to ride on the top of their car unless you are a complete moron. Its a bad influence.
wow you sound like a retard when you talk! its a bad influence to ghost ride but you want the mob shit back where they talk about kids killing kids? and selling drugs carring fullies, robberies? i would rather see kids ghost riding than shooting. and the majority of the bay wants to ride on top of their cars so dont get your hood stomped out!
