This thread is interesting coz it shows many aspects of the Rap world now in effect: heads STILL wanna differentiate between East and West and/or create ANOTHER section on this forum. I take this shit personally even though I "understand" it, coz I'm one very outspoken East Coast head on a West Coast forum, but guess what: I CANNOT stand most of those other forums. I signed on sohh.com but I scarcely go there (even though most cats rip East Coast and shit over there). I see it like this: I own many more East Coast CDs than West Coast; yet, not too many gangsta rap fans love Pac, Dre, Cube, Snoop and others the way I do. My favorite CDs EVER (besides my 2Pac collection) are "Chronic", "Doggystyle" and "2001". Still, I have MUCH MORE knowledge of New York's underground AND mainstream Rap scene coz I live in NY and love my rugged, Mobb Deep, Gangstarr shit. In other words, I don't see the need to bring even more separation when ONE forum out of many on the net, can have heads argue about Jay-Z and Nas OR compare Last Meal to Top Dogg, especially when Rap artists show us the proper way to do things (Dre collaborates with Eve, Busta and Bilal while Dilated Peoples features Alchemist and Primo on their joint). The truth of the matter is Hip Hop is ONE BIG family nowadays, or tries hard to be anyway. More separatism couldn't even bring one REAL topic to be discussed coz how would straight West Coast fans on this forum talk about, let's say, a Rakim/Dre collabo? In clear, in what kind of forum would such a collabo belong? The answer is, it should belong to ANY interesting rap forum like WCC, willing and able to expand beyond its original intended borders (hopefully). That's real...
I love all kinds of music and I don't give a shit where it's from if it's good.
I don't know y'all, lets just keep this str8 west coast, hence the fuckin title. I don't mind some shit here and there, but we've gotten like 20 Nas posts in 3 days. I just ignore that shit, PEACE.
Have You Even Read Through This Thread. Your Nearly The Only Person Who Wants The Board To Be Strictly West Coast. And All The Posts About Nas Are Because Of His New Album.
Incognito, we ain't gettin' nowhere if u're thinkin' like dat... And u know what I'm talkin' about... I like Gangsta Rap but I rep NY, man... And I luv NAS... U GOTTA RESPECT THAT or else...
although this is a westcoast forum, alot of the threads are about east/south artists like nas, ludacris, busta rhymes , jayz etc... i personally dont listen to east coast besides wu tang or some busta rhymes but i aint got anything against it... i wanted to know how come so many of yall who prefer eastcoast come to this forum.peace
