Someone posted a comment on my blog asking about the origin of the Kansas City-Bay Area connection and the earliest collaboration I could think of was JT The Bigga Figga putting on Rich The Factor for his debut in 1995. Was this the earliest association between the two scenes or does it go further back than that?

I remember reading on here about a DJ either coming from here or KC, staying in the Bay for a while and going back/to KC and spinning our local music at parties and it took off from there. I could be tripping but that's how I vaguely remember it.

There had to be a reason rich the factor went to jt, anyone know? Did they know each other. He could have went to some other big producer. I feel like it is weird to just head out to california from kc and find jt for some beats

Deco-D is from Fillmoe, but went to KC in 94' when his Grandma died, while he was there he got signed by Jackpot Records & recorded "The Soul Taker" EP, when Rich came back from Cali he was introduced to Deco by a mutual friend & they collaborated on 2 tracks for the Pole Position album, Deco was also introduced to Snug Brim, funny back in like 2005, we went to see a Tech N9ne show in Santa Cruz & after the show we met Tech & gave him Deco's Prime Example CD & even Tech was like "I know this nigga!..." he has also collaborated with Miss G, Bohn & Young Bereta of Hood Series Ent.
