What new rappers from Frisco are doing anything? Ya Boy i guess if you consider him new. Oakland got the new rappers on lock....The old school shit is obviously up in the air, but I'd give the edge to the Town because nobody from Frisco can match what Too $hort & Hammer did. 6 platinum album in a row for $hort, the first rapper to ever do that. And Hammer was the first rapper to ever go Diamond.

I fukz wit Frisco tho San Quinn is my favorite Bay rapper, with Ya Boy coming up right behind him. I just think the Town overall is better.

If you want to talk about the 90's golden era Oakland artists made just as good music and sold considerably more records than San Francisco artists. What Oakland artists benefited from was expanding their fan base beyond the region. You had Tha Luniz, Dru Down, 3X, Heiro, Short, EA-Ski, Saafir etc either selling units on majors to an international fan base, doing films, and or collaborating with artists from other areas of the county.

Rappin 4 Tay truly stood as the lone cat from the city to go gold, get on a monster album like All Eyez On Me and truly have the potential to bring SF to the forefront. For whatever reason he didn't get his just due because he was an incredible artist. He had great visual representation, had the cut on the dangerous minds soundtrack etc... Tupac stated that the reason why he reached out to 4Tay other than him being a real cat who held him down and that he respected because Pac knew that 4Tay and 40 were exactly where he was before Strictly4MyNiggaz. They were gold artists in the Bay Area trying to reach a new plateau.

As far as comparing local legends every city in the bay area has local legends that is a mute point. You can't say that RBL's contributions are more/less significant than 415's or the conscious daughters because each of these groups/soloists brought something to the table that was invaluable. There are legends in every bay area city from Marin City to San Jose. I listen to Black Dynasty as well as Get Low Playaz they are all legends to me. Both cities have endless rosters filled with dope rappers.

I love artists from SF but they simply did and have not reached the level that Oakland artists continue to reach. In stead of trying to cause friction and divide a region that is in need of unity we need to support the following artists who have major or distribution deals to ensure that our region remains a factor in hiphop.

Oakland
Yukmouth-Smokealot/Asylum/Warner
Kafani- Koch Records
Clyde Carson-Moe Doe/BlackWallstreet/Capital
Mistah F.A.B-Thizz/Atlantic

San Francisco
Bailey- J Records
Big Rich- Koch Records

looking forward to listening to Scokland.... because what we need is to bring these two cities together.

off topic. it was good in that era, it was rare to pull up at an intersection and hear the radio lol nowadays I'll pull up on a vessell and see a car load of niggas trying to look tough slappin the fuck outta some love songs. feel sorry for anyone that missed the good old days. when cmc wasn't gay. a lot more muzik out back then. can we end this thread???? nobody wins. oakland sold more muzik, but frisco made way better muzik. just because no one knew doesn't mean someone is skrapin somebody else. I'll say in the 90's the Bay as a whole made better rap then any region. EM I LYIN?
