WHY THE WEST COAST FELL OFF.

D-Locc60 · Mar 11, 2003

PAC....PAC....PAC.....PAC......PAC.....PAC.....PAC

THATS ALL YOU EVER HERE FROM ARTIST WHEN SHIT AINT GOING RIGHT FOR THEM(MAINLY WEST COAST ARTIST).

THAT COULD BE ONE OF THE REASONS YALL EST. ARTIST AINT SELLIN ALBUMS.....YOU TOO FOCUS ON WHAT PAC COULD HAVE DONE FOR YOU AND IF PAC WAS HERE THINGS WOULD BE DIFFERENT ETC. BLA BLA BLA
ALL THATS BULLSHIT TO ME.

ALSO...TAKE NOTE:
IF YOU AINT SELLIN ALBUMS, YOU MAYBE NOT BE AS TIGHT AS YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE.
FOLKZ JUST MAY NOT LIKE YO SHIT....PERIOD.
THERE MAYNOT BE A MARKET NATIONWIDE FOR YOUR MUSICC.

DONT GET ME WRONG THOUGH, I DO UNDERSTAND HOW RADIO, MAJORS AND DISTRIBUTORS CAN SET UP ROAD BLOCKS FOR AN ARTIST, BUT THAT JUST MEANS YOU GOTA DIGG DEEP IN YOSELF AND PUT YOUR GRIND IN FULL PRESS......
WHEN THE TOUGH GETS GOING, YOU SHOULDNT BE CRYING ABOUT PAC THIS AND THAT.

BE YOUR OWN MANN IS WHAT IM SAYING.

Sic Wid It & Young Moe, the word hater & opinon is different. Sic Wid It is a hater. You can have your opinoin, but this cat always bad mouthing the Bay! I'm not trying to bring any type bullshit drama, I'm just telling it how I see. If you got a cyber problem or a personal problem with it, let it be known!!!

U.N.I.T.Y. is what is lacking in these Fillmoe (Bay Area Streets) streets. Young Moe do you know how many Bay Area Cd's I play on my radio station every week that is weak? A lot homie, but I support these muthafuckaz and I tell em why I don't like their shit and they love me for being a straight shootin muthafucka. Some of em will come back with something nice after I told them the real. That's what I'm talking about, tell a cat how it really is so he can come back with some better shit. I bet a lot you cats ain't tell nobody their shit was so so. Man up to that shit if you care about Bay music.

Sic Wid It, Jt is my folx, but he did fuck the game up for some of these Bay Area artist with that recycle shit. When you hear some bullshit music, tell these cats so the will know the real.

Young Moe, Sic Wid It is probaly your potna that why he digs yo shit. Send me a copy like I said and I will play yo shit too and tell you how I really feel about yo shit. There is no hard feelings so I will be honest about your music and anyone else music.

MEDIA: There is more than the kmel and wyld that will play Bay Area shit if the artist really take the time out and do some home work.

BE THE SOLUTION AND NOT THE PROBLEM!!!

I'm not sayin' cats ain't getting done foul. The music business is dirty and skanless as a mutha fucka. I'm saying that if we're gonna talk about this problem then let's cover the full 360 degrees and make sure everyone is being held accountable for what they are or are not doing. (quote from Sic Wid It)

I agree wit you about that.

My thoughts exactly. The problem with bay music nowadays is that it LACKS CREATIVITY. With music, you gotta change with the times. So why is it that damn near every new bay album that drops is still stuck in 94? And why is it that every bay area cd I own from the mid 90s is collecting dust right now, while Im currently bumpin east coast shit mostly? Cuz I dont wanna hear that simplistic ass gangsta shit anymore...theres a new breed of rap now, and its about lyrics and substance. The east coast is way ahead of the bay lyrically. Until the bay artists figure that out and quit spittin the same, simple ass shit they were spittin ten years ago, its gonna keep goin downhill.

@C. Parker

You keep trying to label me as a "hater" but then you turn around and either agree or hold similar opinions to mine. That shit doesn't make any sense at all. I'm straight up and I don't spare feelings. If I'm going to speak on something then I'm going to call it exactly how I see it. You tell people to "BE THE SOLUTION AND NOT THE PROBLEM" but then you turn your cheek when we start criticizing the garbage that people are putting out.

We can keep this real simple. I'm not interested in what rappers think they deserve. I'm not going to buy a cd just because someone somehow managed to put one out. I will support ONLY the people who I feel have EARNED my support. I respect those who respect the music, the game and me as a consumer. Big record labels, radio and MTV doesn't get to decide whether or not I support 'you'. YOU do.

Now.. C. Parker, why don't you quote something I've said that you disagree with and think is 'haterism' or 'bad mouthing'. Then explain it for everyone here because the points I'm making are pretty much the same ones everyone else seems to be making too.

About not trying to start drama.... There's no reason for any drama over this. We all have the same enemies.

R0YALTY · Mar 11, 2003

West dont need pac to save it. West needs some talent that actually appeals to middle america. every rapper on the west is a super thug rapper. Teenage white girls want to shake they ass to the music Carson daily plays. Not to some nigga talking bout the 30 rivals he killed in a 4 minute time period

40 is the closest cause he makes appealing music. His flow is just to unique for some they cant soak it in.

lol! The east is way ahead of the west lyrically? WTF???? Freeway, Jay-Z, Cam'ron, Beenie, and 50 cent are all weak. What are you talking about man? E-40, B-legit, Yuckmouth, C-BO, Killa-Tay are waayy tighter then them East coast boys. Oh yeah and from your post I know you're not bumbin' 50 cent because he sounds like a gangsta rapper that came out in the ealry 90's.

"You tell people to "BE THE SOLUTION AND NOT THE PROBLEM" but then you turn your cheek when we start criticizing the garbage that people are putting out". (quote by Sic Wid It)

Never turn the other cheek. Look, when cats want radio play from my station (KPOO) and they ask me how is their shit, I spare no feelings. If it's good or bad I tell them just how it is. So what I'm saying is let a muthafucka know if it's wack or tight. Too many times on this board or in life people do not tell their true feelings. Either we say it's cool or it's alright. We need to STOP, and tell them what's really. That to me is why we have a lot of bullshit that's out in these stores now. Be honest, and they gotta respect it.

(Sic Wid It) Some of our thoughts maybe the same, but I'm part of the solution. By me being the Asst. MD at KPOO or just being affiliate with this music biz, my opinion carry's a lil weight with these artist. Everybody on this board knows somebody who is rapping, but most of em don't have the guts to tell there folx to leave it alone. Now if you agree with that statement and you can tell a cat to leave it alone, we're on the same page.

(Sic Wid It) There is a huge market for Bay rap, agree or disagree? I believe there is still a huge market even in our own back yard, but it take strategic planning. You have part of the solution, I got part of the solution and so do a couple other cats, but how do we put it together when these cats are all about self? We can start right here on the siccness. I'm a factor in this game or at least I like to think so. If you're one then holla at me and I'll tell you what myself and a few other cats are organzing to help turn this Bay rap scene around. It's beneficial to all. Do something to be the solution!

I'm reaching out to you, since you seem so concern with the Bay.

Yes, you read correctly...THE EAST IS AHEAD OF THE WEST LYRICALLY. If you dont realize this, you obviously have no knowledge on the art of emcee'ing...and therefor shouldnt have even said shit on the subject.

First off, randomly picking out five rappers does not represent the entire east coast. I dont listen to Freeway, Camron, or Beenie...but Jay-Z weak? You just proved you dont even know what youre talking about. Jay-Z is one of the most talented lyricists in the game. If you cant comprehend why, you need to take Lyricism 101 until you understand what being a good lyricist means.

Here's a list of my favorite east coast artists: Nas, Big L, Jadakiss, Styles P, Cormega, Biggie, Jay-Z.

I challenge you to name one bay area rapper (besides A-Wax) who is on the lyrical level of any of these cats.

WAX FASE · Mar 11, 2003

TAY-IT`S HARD FOR MOST 2 UNDERSTAND WITHOUT THA EXPIERIENCE.I THINK THA SOLUTION IZ SACRIFISE...IF A FAULTY MAJOR CONTRACT CAN LEAD 2 RAP CITY ROTATION&A LIL PAYOLA.....WE BACK!(ASSUMING THA RAPPER REP THA WEST PROPERLY&SHARE SOME SHINE)WE NEED TO GET IN THEY EARZ AGAIN.MY OPINION.

Stop Puttin out BULLSHYT ALBUMS

the west fell off, infact let me say the bay fell off.. The days of tight rappers comin out the bay have past.. it use to be only the hardest and tightest cats got recognition... Dru down had hella radio play.. he from the bay... 40, Rich got air play... so all this radio bloamin and conspiracy theory shyt is bogus.. ya'll just cant face it huh... its too many wanna be rappers puttin out albums.. too many cats doin it just to say the do... too many rappers wit no real skills, fillin up they album wit big features just to sell a record... see I'm from the days where the delinquents was doin shows wit dru, and luniz was doin shows in the bay like wha... 3 times, Cydal, rich... those where the bay area underground hitters.. then came Guce, Mall, Mac Dre resurfaced, JT, San quinn... theez cats was doin shows when most of theez so called MC's was in the tot lot at school, but now they wanna be like Quinn, or Dru or Rich.. so they go ask mummy for money to play wit and drop and album... artist didnt always charge for features if they respected your shyt, it was all done out of respect, but now its so many BOOTSY ass rappers out there.. a cat could care less if you tight... he just wanna git paid.. when i was going to gavin and other seminars.. ya'll dont even do that no more.. you ride around the bay pushin CDs fulla bullshyt and falsifyin the BAY AREA RAP game... nobody can make you FLOODERS git out... but understand... some of you who talk about the industry hatin... are the reason the industry hates, why go to a region of the conutry where all the MC's got labels and sell out the trunk, but you cant trust anything comin out the trunk either cuz more than half the shyt is WACK.. so stop cryin about MTV and BET.. cuz I see some of the wackest shyt on BET's UNCUT late night.. videos done by cats wit camcorders... thing is.. they markets aint flooded... Ours is... to the cats thats been in this game for atleast 10 years you feel me... you know how the game use to be
