Do yourself a favor and check out sum bay area rap. Its much better than that snoop dogg bullshit.Luniz - Operation StakolaDubee - AKA SugawolfCheck em out and learn about it!Well believe it because I haven't heard of him. Since you want me to check it out so bad, do you want to send me a CD with a grip of MP3s, or anything like that? Please don't confuse me for one of the closeminded ignorant cats who doesn't want to hear bay area music. Ironic as it is, before I dropped this post, I was drivin to work and when I parked and cut my car off, I was bumpin this song, and I got on here and saw that there was a topic about it, so even tho I didn't kno exactly who was rappin I was feelin it, and I was playin it for my other L.A. homeboys before that.
My name let's you know where I'm from.626 area, San Gabriel Valley, East Los Angeles County.I'm right between the 10 and the 210 freeways.And, yes I go to the Bay. But, that don't mean nothin'. I don't go to the South, yet I know about artists who are rather local. You got the net homie, all this music is sittin' right there for you to listen to. All you gotta do is download something. If you like buying stuff go to Tower Records, they got PLENTY of records from Bay artists. Same with Wherehouse. Plenty spots in L.A. carry Bay, San Diego, Sacramento and Northwest CDs.Yea, I do knock closeminded heads, especially L.A. cats. L.A. is supposed to be a mecca of Hip Hop, yet it's scene relies on old ass rappers who are already played. Why? Because fans, not saying you, just don't have will to check anything new.
Nuthin wrong with liking LA rap at all. I luv LA rap. What is wrong tho, is to BE from california, and claim to be a WESTCOAST rap fan, and not even know who rick rock, knumbskull, khayree, or killatay is.Thats pretty much like me being from the bay, claiming to be a westcoast rap fan, and not knowing who Battlecat, MC Eiht, and Bad Azz are.

I just haven't heard of Khayree and don't know killy tay like that and if I asked most of my homeboys they wouldn't know either. If somebody from the bay didn't know battlecat, I wouldn't exactly be shocked, but mc eiht has been in movies and bad azz has been on a grip of videos and all. But what's bad on me is that I am a producer, and I am not expectin to blow up or anything but if I ever got some kind of name, people like you and SGV would say shit like "how the hell is he gonna talk about he a west coast producer but he hasn't heard of killa tay and khayree? He don't know shit about the west coast" then that will turn into "He don't know shit about the west coast, he don't even know who Luniz is" then it'll turn into "he said he grew up in L.A. but he never even heard I got five on it" and it goes on and on. So I really do keep my ears open and all, but if I am not exposed to somebody, I just don't go on the net or whatever to ask people who is who. I have probably heard of a lot of lesser known bay area rappers than khayree and killa tay, and they reaaaally don't know shit about them in L.A. so I don't really see the prob.
hey man, you don't have to explain shit to me. I could care less to gossip about you if you became big. bottom line is you don't know who these dope well known cats from the bay are, and I was just helping you out. if you don't wanna learn about them, then fine, just be like the other 90% of this forum.
I don't think people fuck with this site to hear about the latest Bay artist. They come here to dickride Aftermath and Snoop. Go to the Siccness, they got a section just for the Bay(which is more poppin' than the section for L.A.), they got sections for Sacramento, Northwest Hip Hop, Midwest and South shit. If you want to learn about new artists, that's where to go. Pretty much I trip out. If you're an artist yourself, you should know about the artists who came before you. I mean, not saying you don't have any, but where's the respect for the people who laid blueprints before you? Khayree was a big producer out the Bay and produced for a gang of people. Killa Tay is featured on C-Bo's albums all the time, he was on the Thug Lordz album, he's worked with Mitchy Slick, Outlawz, Luni Coleone, JT The Bigga Figga, Brotha Lynch, Spice-1, Bad Azz, King Tee and Mac Mall. That's just naming a few. I doubt you'll find anybody in the Bay who don't know Battlecat.
Don't blame record stores. Tower and the Wherehouse ALWAYS carry Bay shit. Don't blame the net, there's PLENTY of Bay websites. Possibly blame radio or yourself.
