getting "new blood" into the team? but at some point havinf too many people counting on the others to do the work just do do it.
a small group of truly dedicated individuals is always better than a larer group of half-serious folks if you ask me.

Of curse if you only consider worth talking about tours the caliber of the 'Up in Smoke" Tour or even "How the West Was One", & the only events worth mentioning the release of new albums from Dre, Snoop, Cube or Quik (not that I don't like them), then yes, ain't much going on in the West right now...

Oh, except the Coachella shows I guess?

Frankly, I won't say things happen every DAY, but every WEEK is the least basis on which to report I would say.

and they still haven't unbanned BloodMoney's IP address... bunch of lames indeed :/

I think it has more to do with this site's visitors unwillingness to check out the newer acts and expecting the revival of the '90s rappers. Newer artists that have gained a buzz on other blogs don't get the same recognition here because most of the members here aren't checking out for people that aren't affiliated with older acts.

Stuff is happening on the West Coast. Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul and ScHoolboy Q releasing new music and hitting the road, for example.

& They only the TOP of the iceberg! But there are many others out there who are just as talented as the Glasses & Nipseys were say 2 years ago!

Props to the staff for supporting Tha Hustle Boyz, But Donte & Lucci aren't the ONLY young gunz doing their thang! I understand the peeps at the staff can't always know about everybody coming out, but I'm only talking about artists with one or several mixtapes out & doing gigs too, meaning they already have proved they earned a following, a fan-base right there in Cali! Even when you do take the time to write them suggesting artists with a new mixtape & video to get on the main page, you get no answer (or maybe that you didn't address the proper staff member, happened to me once, NOT for myself, I ain't no musician & no rapper either). That I think is kinda sad.

i dont get it, its not like its HARD to get interviews with west coast rappers....all of them are STARVING for attention with maybe 5 exceptions.

there are so many independent and semi-independent musicians that the scope for fresh content on a focused music site is pretty damn huge. they are just waiting to be approached and more than happy to have a well read/trafficked outlet to spread the word.

that's my 2cents anyway.

I'd say you definitely right! You wouldn't IMAGINE how many artists, not only unsigned & independant, but signed too, even the so-called OG's, sent me their personal phone-numbers to set up an encounter for an interview! & I have to tell them it don't happen simply cause I ain't onsite. & I am only myself to do what LITTLE I do. So I'd tend to imagine what would be possible with a dedicated set of a dozen or so individuals working together!
No wonder the forum is always more worthy of giving it a look even with the lousy few shitheads doing nothing but systematic hate & disregard no matter what is done or shared.

and not even just independant artists, as you mention. due to decreasing marketing budgets and general decline of the music industry as we know it, any signed rapper worth his weight is gonna want to talk to music websites, as long as they aren't really small or anything. the internet is by far the primary tool for awareness on a lot of issues and definitely as far as music goes. and there's no geographic boundaries to collaborations and reaching out to people either.
