The Game & Travis Barker Rock AOL Music - November 30, 2006 By : Rud
 In what will be the first AOL Music Session of its kind, multi-platinum recording artists The Game and Travis Barker are joining forces for a unique recording event that will air December 1st on AOL Music.
Single-handedly (literally, as sole instrumentalist performing with one arm in a sling due to a recent fracture) Travis Barker will provide a musical backdrop for The Game, as the two southern California natives reinterpret selections from The Game's sophomore album, "Doctor’s Advocate," which was released on November 14th debuting at #1 [Billboard], having sold 358,278 copies.
Barker’s newest venture, the band (+44), also had an album drop the same day; "When Your Heart Stops Beating" bowed at #10 on the Billboard chart.
Travis Barker broke his right arm while shooting (+44)’s first music video, but the injury has not slowed him down. The band, which also includes Barker’s former Blink-182 band mate Mark Hoppus, Craig Fairbaugh of The Transplants and Shane Gallagher of The Nervous Return, is now in the middle of a nationwide tour.
In addition to The Game's chart success, his new line of Hurricane sneakers in stores and his performance for MTV’s $2 Bill Concert which aired over the Thanksgiving holiday, the man who calls himself the face of Los Angeles is now preparing to trek across Europe. He will touch down on December 4th in Manchester (U.K.) and hit some of the continent’s largest cities and music halls throughout the month.
A preview of this amazing AOL performance is available at ComptonGame.com/AOL before it’s December 1st premiere on AOL. In addition, the audio recording from this special performance will be available exclusively on iTunes from December 28th. The fusion of Mr. Barker and The Game, two of music’s biggest personalities and brightest talents, will make for an AOL Music first that offers something for both rock and rap fans alike.Discuss This Topic

 An almost forgotten talent on the West Coast is 24 year old Westside Way, who was formerly known as Conway.

Cashis & Rikanatti Make Their Major Debut - November 25, 2006 By : Lil Jay
 Going from dropping local mixtapes to signing to Shady Records, Orange County natives Cashis and Rikanatti are on the way to get their big break in the rap game. You don't have to be an industry insider to be able to tell that Cashis is one of the next MC's that is one step away from blowing up. The West Coast rapper took his chance and it's not too far away from being showcased to the public.
In the summer of 2005, Dubcnn put the spotlight on Cashis and his producer Rikanatti, known under the collective The Renegadez. Cashis wasn't lying when he told us in our exclusive interview that "Two of the biggest labels out are scouting us pretty hard right now. So hopefully we can land a major deal and release a couple more mixtapes and release a full length album."
What happened next was the major deal with Shady Records, which resulted in the duo being placed on the upcoming Shady Records compilation "The Re-Up" presented by Eminem. Even Slim Shady recognized his talent, as he gave Cash a spot on the album. We're not talking a single spot, but 6 tracks including 2 solo songs by Cashis (both produced by Rikanatti) as well as the lead single "You Don't Know" featuring Eminem, 50 Cent, and Lloyd Banks.
Dubcnn has one of the songs available for free download:

D.O.E. & Timbaland "Just Might Lose It" - November 15, 2006 By : Rud
 Hip-Hop & R&B's current IT man of production and guest appearences is currently gearing up for his first solo album release in December.
That's right Timbaland, the man who may lay claim to beat of the year for Justin Timbalake's "My Love" record, is currently finalising his debut solo and the single "Give It To Me" featuring recent collaborators Nelly Furtado and the aforementioned Justin Timbalake is already creating a buzz on our forum section, Outbound Connection.
With all that going on you would forgive Timbaland for solely concentrating on that release however his renaissance this year has led to him managing to also ready his other artists, one of which is the New York born D.O.E. who some may remember from last year with his track "Rollin'" which features Timbaland and Lil Jon. Since then they have been working on his debut LP which will hit stores in 2007. A street track surfaced just a few weeks ago entitled "Peace" which features and is produced by Timbaland - a track you can download below.
D.O.E. - Peace (Feat. Timbaland) (Produced By Timbaland)
Another cut, again just a street track [Editors Note; if they are leaving off heat like this they must have some incredible new music for the album!] is the infections "Just Might Lose It", which we are proud to premiere today. The track features both Candance and Timbaland (who also produced the track).
D.O.E. - Just Might Lose It (Feat. Candance & Timbaland) (Produced By Timbaland)
Soak up this new material and tell everyone where you heard it first. For those fiending for more new D.O.E. and Timbo stay tuned to dubcnn and look out for Timbaland's debut album in December which he is said to feature on.

I've been in New York working hard doing the Cali to New York connection. I've also been dippin' down South as well. I'm just trying to be universal so everybody can feel the sound.
Don't worry I am still doing "Yac" but some of the music is what some people won't expect for a typical West Coast rapper. I am still going to give y'all some of that Doggy's Angels.
I’m going to get it in, don't trip. I am just trying to be creative and different and see what comes from it. For you West Coast fans my mixtape is going to feature Crooked I, Mykestro, J Sparks, my girl Lady G.
As far as West Coast producers go, I got to get at my boy Jellyroll, and also Battlecat. I got a couple of beats from J.R. There are also some new producers on there. Make sure that y'all support it. I am not going to disappoint you. I just want to say Thank You to everybody that supported Doggy's Angels in the past. That group is in the past but at the end of the day I am still an Angel. I can't ever knock that. That group is what got me love in this game period and I respect that. Much love to Snoop for even giving me the opportunity to do what I do.
I can go to New York and get love from people that know me from Doggy's Angels, so without that, I wouldn't be able to get that kind of love."

Mr. Capone-E's fan base is primarily Latino and maintains a loyal stronghold throughout the West Coast, Southwest and Midwest.

Meech Wells & Dubcnn Present: "No Bacctraccin" - November 8, 2006 By : Rud
 Today we have the honor and the privelege of releasing a track that many people have not heard and those that have, from a radio rip off Power 106 many years ago, have been waiting to hear in good quality.
During the recording period for Snoop Dogg's last album on No Limit Records "The Last Meal" he recorded a host of material that did not make the cut. One of which was a track he premiered on Power 106 before the album was released, a track many expected to make the final CD.
When the CD hit stores many were shocked to see a track entitled "No Bacctraccin" featuring George Clinton missing from the tracklist. Over the years many have hoped the track would materialse alas it, until this point, has not been the case. Dubcnn have teamed up with Meech Wells on countless occasions recently and as such, he has offered to let the world hear it as it was meant to be heard - right here on dubcnn.
When asked about the track Meech Wells recalls; "Well me and Snoop did No Bacctraccin in 2000 when he was recording The Last Meal. George Clinton came to my house and laid the hook and Bootsy Collins played guitar, then Tha Brides Of Funkenstein did the backing vocals on the chorus and Dr. Dre mixed the record - but they didn't release it."
All in all a collection of legends had input in this track however it never made its proper release; until today. Today we can premiere the track that in the words of Meech Wells "not even Snoop Dogg has a copy of" for all fans and our readership to enjoy, no tags, just good music.
Snoop Dogg - No Bacctraccin (Feat. George Clinton)
Our thanks go out to Meech Wells for his continued support and his unique interaction with our readers and members of the forum; a trait many artists and producers could take heed of. Enjoy the music and support Meech Wells later this month as he releases the Young Joker "Tha Takeover" mixtape - stay tuned to dubcnn.Discuss This Topic

 After a seven-month bidding war, Hip-Hop artist Mistah F.A.B. (Fabby Davis Jr.) has opted to make Atlantic Records the home of his new label Faeva Afta/Thizz/Atlantic. A native of Oakland, CA and a member of the area’s legendary entertainment company, Thizz Nation, Mistah F.A.B. views his deal with Atlantic Records as the opportunity to help himself and others.

I now have a vehicle to distribute positive messages like the Yellow Bus (encouraging kids to go to school) and to help other artists get legit deals, build some wealth and put it back into our communities. It’s gonna be some hard work, but I’m ready and when I’m finished it will be a beautiful thing filled with bona fide head bangers. I thank God for the opportunity."
Getting 150 spins per week on over 30 radio stations for his current single "Ghost Ride It", the official Prince of the Hyphy Movement, will start production for his MTV video debut as early as next week.
