To All People Who Sleep On Anything That's Not...

[Doggystylin]

The Homie SGV is right.  I listen to things out side of DPG and Aftermath. some real GEMS come from out side those camps.  but there is one thing I am guilty of. and that is not listening to anything out side of Cali.  besides Red and Meth, East Coast can take a shit in it's hat for all I care.  it's not that I hate on them.  it's just that West and East are SOOOOOOOO different in style, I find it hard to jump from coast to coast like that.  I mean, I am a BEAT kind of guy.  true the east has some very talented emcee's.  but there beats are just wack.  hope none of all hate me for this. lol.  and I do give props to peeps like Nas and Big(RIP). but I just don't feel that style.  so I don't waste my time even lookin at it. so yeah.  guilty as charged

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
damn the east coast beats are wack
sure their producers rely on heavy sampling but damn some of the beats are dope, honesty I can never be like you, I feel the east coast sometimes more than the west depending on what releases get out
guys like Talib Kweli, Pharaohe Monch,Freddie Foxxx,Masta Ace etc.... make some dope ass music
then again when it comes to latino rappers I cant stand them one bit, I dont even own a cd by a latino rapper and probably never will but then again everybody has their likes and dislikes

[Don Jacob]

what i'm tripping on is why people ONLY choose to listen to rap, it's like FUCK , everyone here is basically craving for the next doggstyle and chronic or whatever........but wont give other genres a chance, when truth be told there's 10,000 albums out there that are just as good as doggystyle and probably more that are even better, it's like damn no one's going to  put you in jail for listening to something new


but then again you just got to let people be what they want, if that's their compfort zone, let it be

[caTASHtrophe]

Hahah if anything i DON'T listen to alot of Aftermath and DPG stuff.

I haven't liked ANYTHING that dropped from Aftermath other than "King Ts-Thy Kingdom Come". I haven't listened to Dre 2001 in about a year and a half.

As for DPG alot of its hit and miss for me, some is great others are average.

I think you guys miss the point of these type of threads.  I don't think SGV was gettin all mad at yall for not checkin out artists.  I think he is doin u guys a favor by lettin yall know about other artists out there that u might not know about and mite not check cause ya ain't heard shit by them.  Oh well, SGV ain't the one missing out.  My attitude now is fuck em, if they don't wanna hear some dope shit, then whatever, it ain't my loss.

thank u....im just tryin to let u all see the light(along with grundy, nima, the funk foos, tnp and others) of other shit outyside of snoop...outside of dre...not commercial music...just those two...cuz theres plent of commercial music here that gets shut out too...im just tryin to enlighten yall on new shit...but if u choose to sleep...thats u...at least give it a chance tho damn...aint like itll kill u to bump something different...

[Don Seer]

naww u aint getting it.

you now sayng 'fuck em' for not checking something out... not everyone has the time to check this shit out righ when its posted up. if someone posts up a obscure album with the cover and says "track 5 is the shit" i aint peepin that shit.. i got no means to check it and i aint gonna go buy shit on someones say so. I know some of you are bootleggin these artist anyways and aint ever buy shit i aint naming names but certain people have proclaimed they aint bought shit for years...

talk about it sure.. but dont insult people if they dont wanna check out every thing you put up... dont wander into a dre thread or whatever saying "fuck dre he commercial, check out this shit" you come across looking ignorant. i know it aint all of ya'll.. but some of ya do

anyways lets flip to the positive side of this.

i dont know what the answer is.  i thought funkdaddy's idea of hooking the information up maybe via a site is a good one.
coz sometimes i aint got time right when people post shit up. often i'm at work and can't listen to audio if there is any.
 
if u wanna get the information you guys are learning during ya explorations out to more people find a conduit for getting it there.

i've listened to a bit here and there... but i dont know what steps from the points i've been at lead to more similar things.. off the top of the head i've been bumpin fo clipse, self scientific, people under the stairs... maybe grouping this stuff on a site or however will help people branch to similar things.

[S.G.V.]

all im sayin is...if u the type that bitches that the west is not gettin love and all this other bullshit...but yet ur not peepin anythin else but snoop n dre...thats the type of shit im talkin about...plus peeps go time to talk about tupacs nuts...how could they not have time to chop game about some other less-spoken-of artist?

[P Nelson]

The Reason why I dont read these threads is because most of the people having love for underground artists gots hate for commercial music... I think its a kind of frustration, because their favorite artist didnt sell... Im like the average WCC member, I love Aftermath, DPG... BUT I still listen to Kurupt & Crooked I and I dont scream Fuck Death Row.. I didnt like Snoop's last album but I want it to sell because I respect the fact that hes trying to make something different .. not only that "93-94" G-Funk... (West Coast Fans are 10 years late, thats why an artist is considered fake in the West if hes changin his sound).. Nate Dogg, my FAVORITE artist... I heard 2 songs from his new album and I DONT like it, because this shit is nothin new.. That G Funk is gettin played out, it can be good if the beat and the hook are originals, but when it's not, it makes u feel like an unreleased song from 1992.

My point is that if u want people to respect ur opinion and read ur post, u have to respect other people's opinion.. If I go to every thread and say "Ha HA I bet e-40's fans are gonna hate it, I Luuuv it hihi" , Im sure all the E-40's fans wont give a shit bout what I post cuz they will think im simply ignorant

*it feels good to get it out of my chest*

[Trauma-san]

Yeah, what he said.  I don't understand some people.  Why do people got hate Dre/Em/Whatever just because they're not as talented as their favorite artist? What, It's all or nothing? You only like 1 obscure ass rapper nobody's ever heard of, and since Snoop can't flow that fast, yall are all "F*CK SNOOP! You really need to hear ........ (insert obscure name I ain't got the time to download)"  I got an idea, LOL Why don't you like your obscure artists, AND like Snoop? lol why do you have to hate one to like the other? I like about anything on the damn radio, there's really not much I won't listen to.  People come up to me all the time talking about musicians, and i'm like "Yeah! I love that stuff!" I don't have to pick just one little set of people I like, and then diss everybody I feel is inferior to them.  I don't think Nas is as tight as people say, but I think he's tight; so I don't go around saying "SCREW NAS! GET @ YA BOY!@!!!!"

naw that isn't what I mean.  I don't mean fuck em like I don't like you cause you ain't gonna check out some underground shit.  I mean fuck em, like oh well it ain't my fault they ain't checkin it, I am not gonna spend my time and energy trying to convince someone to check out a new artist.  And also I rarely will post a new topic or reply to certain topics about underground because basically it seems worthless.  I mean there can be over 30 fuckin reply's to a thread stating who is the worst westcoast rapper, yet a thread about someone not as popular as say snoop or eminem, gets maybe 10 reply's.  And then a lot of u say that there is no good westcoast artists out there.  I made a thread about if the wc will ever see the sucess of the past.  Like a quarter of the people replied by sayin that the wc doesn't have any good artists right now.  And then I bet you at least half this board checked out truth hurts album-just because it is aftermath affiliated, but won't check out a lot of other artists who dropped much tighter albums IMO.  Oh well.

[D.R.E.-Dogg]

on the one hand.. fuck listening to only one kinda music and not even giving other shit a chance.. that's true

on the other hand.. fuck bitching about other people's oppinion even if 'too' many love one artist or affiliated.. ,bitching won't help

betta do something against it by informing people about other shit

As much as I love Dre's music and much of his affiliates as much am I open minded to any kinda hiphop and I also do listen to alot of underground and east or whatever plus I also listen to Dre haters/enemys like Dresta n Knocc Out etc

I would even listen to Tha Row if they were any good although they always bitching about that old ass beef

so ur sayin cuz i predict exactly whats gonna happen when i talk about a murder inc diss to 50 cent or that i say im lovin the dissin that im dissin someones opinion?...lmao...if u say so...if i said everysingle 50 cent fan is a huge faggot that doesnt know shit about hip hop...thatd be dissin their opinion...just cuz im on the other side people always swear im dissin their opinion...but fuck it if u foos catch feelings cuz i dont support 50 cent...then thats yall...
