I agree 100%, but what is funny you will get rappers come on the threads saying we have to evolve, we gotta rap different, even when fans continually say they miss that style....can you go double platinum off it? probably not but there is a market. Remember that demographic of fan was the ones who actually purchased music, and helped the West Coast shine. Why cater to the young fans who may not be lifetime rap fans and are more likely to download your shit? Build a loyal fan base who will support all your music, when you switch up you may end up losing that loyalty cause that fan will move on and find somebody whose gonna give it to em how they want it.
I AGREE WITH THAT ALL WAY THE PIMP.

^^^^ this is what I am talking about, why switch up?, why rap gangsta, why rap militant, why rap comedy, why rap at all its all been done in one way or another, and more then once. Rap how you wanna rap...if its crunk, hyphy, lyrical gangsta..if the shoe fits wear it. Conforming to an industry is the best way to make it, but those chances are getting slimmer anyways, and this just contributes to the below average music which will only make shit worse.....i have no idea how someone needs to rap, or network to get a deal, or make a town blow, and obviously no one else does either, or we would see more sucess. Whats funny is people keep saying dago is just gangsta rap....I think there are more hip hop style rappers, and club song rappers in dago..its pretty spread out as far as that goes....mitchy really hit the nail on the head..it takes money, and a steady flow of it..not going in your pockets but out of em to push it big, my advice is do what you do..do it well and build a fan base 1 at a time...

West coast rappers need to start doing more music together. I just saw this dvd with a bunch of L.A. heads on there like Snoop, Jay Rock, Glasses, Bishop and bunch of others on there. Its great that they talk about uniting and have videos of them BBQing it up, where the music? Where's the Snoop feat. Glasses? Where's the Game feat. Mitchy Slick? Bishop feat. Crooked I etc.?

The south always do shit together. They're damm near 10 states deep though. Alot more people can relate to there shit. WestCoast is just Cali. how many people count Nevada, Washington, Arizona and Oregon a part of the coast? Its gonna be hard to beat the south. Too many states, too many people. Best thing to do is blend in. Steal some fame, then do some west coast shit, if "bringin it back" is ur mission.
