@ COUPE-GORGE It's plenty of eastcoast folks that got love for the bay and the whole westcoast. Don't judge on what you hear on the radio. Them dj's is controlled by the stations.

all that QB shit, Mobb deep are NY finest, Cormega is one of the tighest, he need some better prod, littles is coming hard, representin the next generation, I have some love for krumsnatcha, rep the BeanTown to the fullest. DITC crew is composed of too many gifted rappers and producers, from the late BIG L to OC, diamond D, AG to named a few. Back in the days, Organzed Konfusion come with some real new concepts, the BCC wa tigh as fuck, heltat skeltat first. Used to listen ONYX with that harcore shit, first Wu releases were nice too, "only built 4 cuban linx" is a classic to me, Shyheim was ill too. Brownsville BK MOP and teflon or blahzay blazhay provide some raw tracks and I can't forget that broken language niggaz smoothe da hustler and trigger tha gamblerm two of the dopest of the the east who've remained underated.
