I've seen yall say the Jacka's beats and his flow are too "East Coast" same thing said about The Team and Yukmouth. So what does that mean exactly? Does that mean the beats and flo are better than normal? Because most bay beats are ass but Rob Lo puts it down. I'd much rather hear sampled beats than some bullshit Triton annoying Synth bass shit. So what does, "Sounding too east coast" mean exactly?

explosive mode 2 sounds like they jacked those beats from camron/dipset , so weak and lame eastcoastish
Dipset has some of the illest beats around. What exactly is "Lame" about it? You know their bay following is huge right? They have more fans than anybody from the Bay.

dipset is not good not even ok . there horrid
Your opinion doesnt mean anything. You're also not giving any reason as to why they are "Horrid". I'm talking about their beats not their rapping. Who do you listen to? Where the fuck is menasha wisconsin? LMBAO

Basically, it comes from the beats and lyrical content that the "East Coast has". I personally, think it's yellow bus. I mean, everytime I hear somebody say.."oh, they sound like they from NY" I just shake my head in embarrassment. Since there is no MC's in the Bay who sample beats, have lyrical metaphoric rhymes, and seperate themselves from the hyphy scene, cats assume that they must be on some NY shit. BUT IT'S STUPID!!! The people who say things like that are the same cats I was tryin' to get at on my official "YaBoy is Overrated Thread". (Yea, the ignint' ones) It's like this:Just because it aint hyphy, don't mean it aint Bay Area. People forget that shit, and they think New York is the capital of essential hip hop. Niggaz goin' dumb to a tenth degree......it's amazing.


AND IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW, NOW YOU KNOW.

i really dont know why people say that i guess if its different it aint bay to them or something.. yukmouth or the team dont really sound like Ny rappers to me at all.. alot of niggaz in the bay hardly even listen to anything thats not from the bay thats why they so quik to call niggaz great cuz they dont have nothing to compare them with..

The Last Word, did you get me on that? It may sound misleading, but maybe I should've said only existing place.......so people won't get confused. New York is where it started, but it's far from what it used to be.
