What I'd like to see out of the West... real shit

[BiggBoogaBiff]

No more "So Sharp" hooks and beats.  Mack that shit was wack.  You've dropped better newer shit than that.


Add Nevada, Oregon, Washington, and Arizona to The West Coast.  Cali can't hold the whole Coast down on it's back.  It's already been proven a losing game plan - look at y'all now and how long it took to even get this far again. 


a  Wu Tang Clan.  Pac Division is cool but where the grimey niggas at that that just be on that shit.  3 MC's (one Drake type nigga that can do hooks too), a Singer (female), and 3 Producers as just one super group would be classic.


A TalkBox/Ringer-Mod (DJ Quik/BlaQout) on a track every now and then (and i say that neutrally)


Conceptual MC's.  I like Ras Kass and Sly Boogie and them but it'd be nice to find that 1 nigga or group that be on that Playaz Circle shit.  No Biters Allowed though.


Better weed songs.  You figure y'all would have that shit on lock when it comes to music in general but alotta that shit is wack or mediocre, just bein' honest.   What happened to the beats that made u feel high like "Roll It Up, Light It Up, Smoke It Up"?  They have a "420-Weed" Soundbank, 2 volumes - get it crankin


Songs with better Bass.  The Bass in the West Coast Style of Hip Hop is lacking.  Nothing that blew ur mind like back when they were dubbing funk tapes.  I need somethin that bangs again, somethin a lil new- my man Nipsey's got them beats tho.


Put niggas like Terrace Martin, Problem, Nipsey, and some1 fresh from out The Bay as the main attraction in Cali.  some1 we've never heard that's just unique but a not too different unique.  Some1 with Mass Appeal that could "take" in a sense the crown from Pac some say without sounding like or always having him compared to Pac.


When are we gonna get the Guitar Totin' AND Playing Gangsta Lyfe Jennings MC version in a Convertible Lincoln ass nigga.  WildWildWest, u think cowboy/guitar (not just bandannas and guns lol)


Some homage paying groups/rappers.  It's trend thing for marketing hip hop.  We've all seen niggas like "The Retro Kidz" and that one youngin' who was rappin about her shoes (i think) a little while back (redbone, blonde hair, cheap "flashy" video).  A 2010 Domino or 2010 Spice 1 is definitely needed.


Lets get a Cali/Chicago/Nevada/Indiana thing goin' on.  A west and mid west "slaughterhouse".  Find 4 niggas that's fresh out of jail and that's serious on the mic and put em on some good beats and some good/proper buzz and you can make 100,000,000.


A good rapper that just blends in.  Like alotta Westcoast artist are just kinda different (it's kinda hard to explain).  The west needs some1 to blend in to the scene and stay in normal rotation with the rick ross' and the fabolous', and not some1 who gets on the mic and screen and every other song  is west-west and caliyadayadayada.  we all already know about the West, what about you nigga-  like the ACTUAL future (no early days of Crooked I ass nigga either).  all that talk and no album


Better cars.  There's some cars out here that'll shit on 60-somethin' Imp.  Step up y'all game.


And last, with all of those clubs out there you'd figure y'all have some of the best club music out nowadays.  Three 6 Mafia's "Shake My..." is the best variation of a hardcore pop record i've heard since we can think.  Glasses Malone and TPain is the best y'all can do lol Grow Up is supposed to encourage me.  Get on TV first nigga and not YouTube.



I think 2010 will be better tho.  Not just for the West but Hip Hop in general.

Some artists "need" to get on youtube for 1) It's FREE promotion, and 2) Not every artist coming into the game walks into a multi million promotional deal

Who gives a shyt about artists having "nice" cars. Only b!tches like that materalistic type of thing so they can drop their panties while they cruise past

& no one is going to make in 2009 $100Million out of MC's lol

I can see the enthusiasm, and eagerness for the strengths in variety, but in reality it's just not going to happen. From the just of that, I'd say you like hard G-Funk, but even though it aint on the mainstream front, a lot of indy artists still make it

No offense but those states have always been WEST. For whatever reason unknown to me people do not think it is, like it is the south or something. But most people that think that way live in another country lol.

lets not make this thread about me.  That hard G Funk shit is where it's at tho lol but it doesn't necessarily have to be gangsta funk.  Just come with somethin' hard again and this time not just talk about Cali, I wanna hear about and hear from the rest of the West.  In then end it'll just work out better that way.

What about the Game - he talks about... EVERYBODY lol. I think G-Funk in the mainstream is dead and buried. For the West to regain some muscle in the industry again, they need the seniors like Dre, Snoop etc. to put out West acts with full energy behind them. Look at the Documentary. Multi-Platinum, young West artists need more of the seniors assistance, but it's far easier to just work alongside other big names financially

fuck big names that's not true anymore.  it ain't like niggas is still average 100,000 units sold.  The labels need to sign a nigga and promote em like a "normal" artist and wah-lah u got it.  I think Nipsey is perfect for the rap game but the West needs some1 else NEW that's just as hot as Nipsey or better.  And I mean that by saying they have to have the Full Package.  Doesn't have to be cliche' either.
