Freaking crying shame when the west had to win thru a pop record.

I think it's clear we need more pop artist out of the west. What say ye Crooked I?  

P.S. Also #1 Digital Song.

Fuck pop music

[Young Old Head]

uh, yeah... fuck rap music then *lol* pop(ular) music = rap music among others...

[Action!]

often people use pop to either refer to popular music or to describe very specific sound of music that's easily digestible, relatively simple, and not offensive. 

[Young Old Head]

yeah i dug what he meant but wanted to point that out anyway

[Action!]

[NewYork Pope]

lol snoop takin a free ride cuz he cant score a hit himself and muffuccaz ridin off a pop star's numbers

Fuck pop music

[Chamillitary Click]

why is everybody so caught up in numbers?

not many people in any region are selling relatively good, who "keep it real".

the West is just hundreds of people "keeping it real" & none of them are selling.

the East has Jay-Z, he sells; the Mid-West has Eminem & Kanye West, they sell; the South has Wayne & i guess T.I. counts.

other than that? who really sells records? they sell sellout, formula based singles, but not albums.

my problem with the West is you got every new rapping saying the same shit that they been saying since Pac, Snoop & NWA; just progressively getting worse.

all repping the coast, talking about weed & low riders; the West needs some new substance & a more radio-freindly sound if you guys want them to do numbers.

but that's the problem with rap because if they did that & made formula based music to sell, you guys would bitch & complain everybody on the West sold out; so it's a lose-lose.

[you gon always be my latin queen bitch]

cham numbers aint shit im sayin the west or fans of westcoast rap are tryna ride off a pop singers music in sayin the west is still here jus like wit the bep shit....if the bep werent sellin they are nobody
they are sellin so they are good and the west accepts em...otherwise how come they werent gettin this much acceptance years ago?
they were from the west then, so what happened? (they are sellin more records now and snoop isnt)
and sides.....that low rider shit and that gang bang etc....that sells jus not on the same level
people around the world want that...if you dont make what people want, then what will you sell period?
