the youth.... who for some reason like hearing people rap about grills and rims constantly
West Coast Rap is on life support cuz the West Coast fans are unable to let go. They fantasize about spending $30 on an album that's 10 years old and that they probably will never get, instead of supporting maybe a Glasses Malone or a Jay Rock (since so many West Coast fans DEMAND "Gangsta" shit). They could look for some Terrace Martin beats instead of always hoping and praying for a Battle Cat beat. West Coast fans are just stuck in the past. If they could still wear Compton hats and have Gheri Curls they would. Shit is ridiculous. They hate to see a MAN grow up. They want grown ass men to be talking about the same shit they talked 10 years ago. Snoop has a son that's a teen. Dre is damn near 40. Same with Cube. 40's son is already rapping, think how old that makes him. W.C., Mack 10 etc. etc. have all been out for over 10 years, how can you expect them to NOT have grown? They're all in the mid to late 30s, it's time to let them go. If you wanna see the West Coast come back, try supporting some new shit, instead of looking for a new Daz album or a new Young MC album. It's 2008, we don't have time for one hit wonders, has-beens or never-was' on the West Coast.
how many of these threads have we had?

People have just Outgrown "Gangsta Rap" (IMO)I Speak for me personaly having grown up thru the entire evolution of Rap from The "SSH, GMF & The F-5" Ect... (Start of this..)Until Now, The decline has been showing since the start.and it's not because of lack of artists or any certain group of Rapper's, it's because the fan base just simply outgrows the movement.Honestly having been thru the REAL era of Gangsta Rap, I Just don't feel like hearing any new rapper spit the exact same shit I heard before from a Rapper who did it already and spit it 100X better than the new Cat.If I wanna hear Some Gangsta Shit I'll Break out my Lp's & cassete Tapes, And My later Half of the collection as Cd's and bump those..Honestly I Feel That part of Hip-hop should just be laid to rest. Unless it's them spitting! (The OG's)It's real hard for me to get Hyped about any New stuff be it East/West, again it's not because of Lack of Music, but quality. (IMO)There is just Nothing out there that makes me wanna spend any money on. I'd rather just Bump my Archive instead.Sometimes not even the Og's get me hyped anymore, Like I'm like whatever when it comes to this new Snoop album..And it has never been like that before...HHW & Dubcc/DubCnn one of the only reasons I even Check for Hip-Hop anymore. & maybe because it's a personal thing with Crookcause dude's been owing us an album for a while now.. (Since Virgin crook danm!!!, lol)IMO, The Real reason Hip Hop is falling off, Is because those WHo made it what it was are all grown up now.(Old school Hip-Hop heads don't like change, We fucken hate it, Well I do)

3. Major guys putting people on. People point the finger at Snoop and Dre but i cant help feel that Game is one of the worst culprits of this. When his 1st LP came out he shoulda looked to do a group album or release albums from Juice, Ya Boy etc. 50 pulled it off excellently and if he'd got a few Dre tracks he coulda done fine. But to this date BWS is a mixtape label that has little buzz.

Who do ppl think of when they think of WC rappers outside of the ppl on the coast itself? Game & Snoop, that means that in the recent years they have put in the most work. Game been droppin mixtapes, albums, doin shows like powerhouse, feutured on J Rock, O Cruz etc etc what more do u expect? Just cuz the other rappers aint as succesful or the whole coast isn't as popular as before doesnt mean that they aint the KINGS OF THE WEST.
