Why doesn't the west coast support their artists?

[Hambone (Guest)]

Well thats what they do on the otherside of the country. Play East coast music 24/7. I remember goin over there a couple years ago to N.Y. They only played Dre and sometimes Snoop.

Exactly....my ex girlfriend went to college in NY, and she said she only heard snoop or dre tracks over there...every blue moon...........

and thats are point, its not that we are not supporting them, the rest of the country does not have a outlet to hear them.  The only way a person can hear westcoast rap 24/7 is by loggin on to the  internet and listenin to a website.......thats sad......
give it time...in about 10-15 years...things will change.....at least that is what i am hoping for.....

BULLSHIT NIK. I get power and it's all fuckin jay-z and ja rule and shit, i guess we listen at different times. there's alot of reason but mainly cuz radio plays east coast shit. i don't see why peopl buy shit that sounds whack off the bat, it don't compute to us rational thinkaz. peace-Tanjint

I live in NY and the ONLY west coast shit they play here is Dre and Snoop, the rest is east and south.

At least we get all the world premiers, interviews, New West Coast shit, etc...

Here in philly they almost NEVER play west coast artist. Everything comes from the east and south. They rarely even play dre and snoop.The only time they played dre and snoop songs was when they came to philly for the up in smoke tour. Other than that it's all dmx, ja rule, little mo, nelly, ray j, little kim and shit.

Lil MO??, Ray J?? - Damn thats real messed up. They are startin to play that stuff over here.

On Power, the only east coast artist I hear right now is Jay Z. And it's only 2 songs. Oh yeah, and the Queen Bridge song, or whatever with Nas. I hardly ever hear Ja Rue, and DMX hasn't been play in since his last CD. It's been mainly Xzibit, Kurupt, and anything featuring Nate Dogg. "You make my hight come down, OOHH You make my high, come down"
