I've always felt that Sac-Town rap artists have had unique deliveries and flow patterns, as far as styles of rap are concerned. C-Bo, Lynch, myself. we didn't sound like anyone else's style and flavor. Before us, Bay Area rappers were writing about drug dealing (415, Richie Rich), pimpin' (Too Short, etc), dancing (Hammer), or smokin' pot (MC Pooh). No one was HARD CORE, relentless, gangster with the rhymes until after Psycho Active. Check the dates of releases. The Lunis, 3X Krazy, Spice 1, all of the guys makin' dark music in the Bay started doin' it after the Sac-Town boys came with the Garden Blocc Siccness. We never got credit for that because we were all considered "Bay Area artists," so it was considered a new "Bay sound."
Problem with that is, Sac-Town isn't in the Bay. It's in the valley. River City, cuzzin. If we were not lumped with Bay artists, our influence and impact on Bay artists' music would have been more visible and understood.
Shame.
