Post by: smerlus on September 24, 2002, 08:36:06 AM

if you heard the interview someone posted up the other day this wont happen. he says he has better to come, and didnt realise while making the album that he hadnt made a 'club' track.. and since he likes club he wants to make some.

he wont top it... its just like people wanting snoop to top Doggystyle

Word... I got their album.  They say they study Islam but they aren't practicing Muslims.  

Yo...... fuck movin forward, going backwards is what I'd like to see West Coast music do..... It made me feel so good to listen to King T's album finally..... The West Coast should just go back to those mid-90's bass heavy, synthed out, smoke somethin, drink somethin, pimp shit that was so popular back in the day.  Throw up a few W's and ride on the East Coast and some mark ass bitches.  Talk about how big there dicks are... and shit like that.  Or... if you want to elevate the game a bit then you can come with some Ice Cube "Death Certificate" or Xzibit "40 Dayz 40 Nightz" type shit.  That hardcore intelligent shit.

Really...... it doesn't matter what they talk about in West Coast hip-hop.  What has always set West Coast hip-hop apart is it's style.  It's production, and the artists charisma and style.  That's what I love about West Coast music and that's what they do best.

Another thing is that might be good is that label-love that was portrayed back on Deathrow when everyone was not only tight...but also representing each other. Remember that Deathrow vibe magazine cover...

i thought about this shit today.... all these people on the west with money...cube, dre, snoop, etc... they should buy a fucking radio station somewhere and just blaze westcoast rap the way east coast shit is played. they should come out with a REAL west coast label, the equivelant to DEF JAM and just try to run shit. but that shit would never happen because.......


the west is TOO DAMN GANGSTA...
