major labels are so dumb when it comes to bay artists. It's like they sign a group just to shut everybody up and basically sabotage thier career with no promotion. It happens time and time again. Look at Gurilla Black. he on virgin. he tight and on MTV and BET n shit. That's cool but why not do the same for the federation. what's really?

Wit Ric Roc beats man you can loose. They are treating the federation like some "locals". They don't get played outside of the Bay...I was in L.A. and 1. Hyphee didn't come on the radio AT ALL and 2. The dj's in the club didn't even know what Hyphee was...radio plays tricks on people and, yes the Bay is on the Federation and the country is feelin Ric Roc's production, but the combo isn't fairing to well...Remember 40 don't even get spins outside of the Bay...and he is our "house hold name" artist.

When I say "anywhere else" I mean with in the 5 major radio markets in the United States where a bulk of sales and spins are made...In other words 15 spins a week in LA, NY, CH, ATL or the Bay are worth more then 45 spins a week in Mudfuck North Dakota or some shit...the stations in the major markets set the playlist for the entire country...that's all I'm sayin.

Federation is *supposed to* drop. I hope it does because I've been wanting to hear that album for a while. Did they get signed because Virgin thinks they're hot and gonna make them some money or did they get signed to help their relationship with Rick Rock?

to answer dudes question i dont really think the federation is getting the exposure nation wide like they are in the bay... they are making some moves though they just got up in the source and and ric rock is talkin bout them on bet and shit but i dunno it dosent seem like radio outside cali play their shit that much so i don tthink the rest of the country really know who they are.
