Everybody is talkin bout how west coast gangsta rap is soft and has fallen off and aint nobody comin tight. In your eyes what artist or cd that is suppose to drop this year is capible of putting west coast gangsta rap back on the map?

Off the top I'd say: X-raided's next solo, LBI, Yukmouth, Luni's next solo, i'd say killa tay but i haven't heard about any solo's he has comin soon, honestly, c-lim could do it, thats all i can think of right now.

I was going to rag on you because you spell like an imbecile...but this is a worthwhile subject.

I'm in a hurry but I'll have to summarize. For a west coast artist to rise to the top of the game he needs to do the following in chronological order:

1) Create an up-tempo (most songs 92-105 bpm) CLASSIC CD. Every song has to be catchy and meaningful (you're not going to blow up rapping about bitch ass cars, how many guns you have, and how much money you spend). There can't be more than 1 wack song.
1b) Oh yeah you have to be able to flow so people can understand you and have a cool voice.
2) Promote the shit out of it until ALL of CA is bumping it. Play every bar, every club from LA to Sactown.
3) Start slangin your CDs and DOCUMENT it - sell at least 100,000 copies on your own and have it in written proof notarized.
4) The radio and labels will come to YOU - at this point, you have to tour nationwide and paper all major cities by yourself. The companies won't assist you at all. Put up posters on every corner of every town nationwide. Play every bar and club you can. This may take a year or two.
5) Once you're a name the majors will come to you.

No west coast artist wants to promote. The playing field is not fair and they will ignore you until you make them notice. You must get out there.

There are no west coast artists willing to "PUt it back on the map" again, nobody's willing to put in work. Nobody's willing to leave their hometown, much less the state.

You can follow plan B

1) Suck Dre's dick and he'll maybe let you guest on Eminem's album - you might sell 10,000 copies off of that.
