The 213 album will hopefully bring some more exposure back to the west, but as for the future you have the whole Damizza, Shade Shiest crew who are coming with some dope shit, plus Damizza has connections throughout the industry which will help them get more exposure. IV Life are coming with some dope shit, but I can't really see them being that commerically successful. Knocturnal and LA Confidential have a chance at being big, but its all on whether they can release Knocturnal's album before most of the mainstream have forgotten about him.

Out of that list, Id have to say 213 becuase its gona be be a major release not only for the westcoast, but for music in general.  Im expecting nothing short of a classic from the 213 album and I know the group of Snoop, Warren and Nate Dogg will bring the west back and get major exposure more than anyone else on the list.  I hope Knocturnal follows up with a dope album and keeps the west in the spotlight tho.

213 is the closest bet. Knoc is not really liked by most heads cause his flow is too unorthodox.

Naw I doubt 213 will put the west coast back on the map. Let's be truthful most of you say because Snoop will be involved? Do you guys remember Tha Eastisdaz? Snoop only helped them sale 2 million at most. I like Warren G but sadly most people that's not a real west coast head don't even know about Warren G anymore or even care which is a shame. Nate Dogg can't carry a solo album for some reason and only help others sale when he does a guest spot. Snoop can still sale around 1 million copies but if it wasn't for Pharell on that single I doubt he would have even gone platinum. I look at the South and the East and see them coming with fresh new talent like a 50 cent on the east or a Ludacris. 50 Cent isn't new he just new to the mainstream fans, but what has the West put out new and fresh? The last platinum west coast artist besides Snoop and Dre was Xzibit. But after that whole else has gone platinum? So to answer that the West needs anyone to step of that's a fresh face and coming with something a little diffrent then the same stuff and the same faces.

True but the average East Coast head will still say how much the West is dead and that we only have Snoop and Dre.

213 is in the best position right now, unless Snoop ruins it with wack cameos from pop-rappers.
Knoc-Turn'al can blow up at any given time. Destined for stardom.
Xzibit will continue to be one of the biggest on the West, behind Dre & Snoop..
Ice Cube will be real big, first with a solo, and then maybe WSC.
Eastsidaz will never go more than platinum, but still among the best music-wise..
Damizza have a great career in front of him, but only as producer.
IV Life - seems promising, but they're far from big yet. Can make it big if they stay buzzing.

Warren G & Ras Kass - As dope as both of them are, I think their time have passed. They might go gold, but bring the West back..  :-\
Roscoe - Will always be just Kurupts younger brother.. at least for the 2-4 next years.

I think the NEW talent will be the one to accomplish this.  I'd say either Knoc or Amir.

Dre have tossed Ras 2-4 beats through his whole career.
He is not even close to be a main producer for Ras, and neither are they on the same label.
Your point ? (Besides hating on Dre for giving dope beats to Ras)
