they all bring something.. maybe some good for mtvness.. not sure

crisstyle.. ladies love him so thats the chicks covered.. lol, lots of indo smoke + party refs, happy vibes, but can come darker too..  also produces .. whiteboy gangsta eminem.. might work well for promo? "and up next.. the video from the group latest new gangsta rappers.. the iv life family.. and yeah thats right.. crisstyle is a -white boy- *gasp*" lol.. can just imagine it!

too cool... gangsta, hard as fuck, and lyrical if u listen some

young buc... pure fire spitter.. for the lyrical cats

j-dog is a charismatic blend of all, many compare him to mausberg. produces too..


kinda well rounded really? :) they aint all carbon copies, they aint all pretty..


work + affiliated with... eastsidaz / mac dre / bad azz / ju-l and many more... u might be suprised how that helps word get around.. i think getting people to listen to them is half the battle!

i'm sure they'll sell more than dysfunktional ;)


they must have a lot of money behind them.. consider how long they've been going.. they throw lots of shows.. about 3 so far this year at least!

How are the IV Life dudes a "new breed" ? IMO They're no different than the Steady Gang from the West, or even D12.

Answer: they have no head-man that's already famous. Strong Arm Steady has Xzibit as the main rapper. D 12 has Eminem.

IV Life is a new breed 'cause everyone are new rappers. (DJ Slip is a vet in the game though, that's true.)


That's true. My bad. I thought when you said "new breed" you meant lyrically or music wise.

no one can predict the future ecspecially in the muscic buisness. But can ANYONE doubt the talent of IV Life? to even compare them to D-12 or any other group is rediculous in my opinion.

^^^^ To bad talent has nothing to with it nowadays.  If I had enough promotion I could blow up today (and I almost sound as bad as Ja Rule)

lol

Its hard for a westcoast act to come up unless your down with shade shiest (get ya music on power) or if your a vet like WSC are.

Crooked I had a cool fan base from 97-2000 but he was still overlooked. Its only now Deathrow used power promotion on him like putting him on DPG and 2Pac cd's along with Ja Rule cd's that hes got so well known. Thats fake advertising but it works.

Lyrically they are not better than D12. Not even better than D10.

I don’t think anyone from the west could "sell" .. the west coast rap scene is like Germany after WWI.
My opinion, the only way the west could become powerful again is if the east and south were to start beefing or stop making collabs with one another. Right now the south and east make all the dope music and the west just sits in a corner crying.

As far as I'm concerned, Strong Arm Steady is not Xzibit's group. He's down with them, but he's not the leader. Chace Infinite, Khalil, Krondon, Phil Da Ag and Mitchy, that's the crew, IMO.

Anyway, IV Life is not on their level. Lyrically, Chace In would smash them all. IV Life is coo, I'm not that into them though. The game is getting boring with all that gangsta talk. That goes for every rapper out.

xzibit and planet asia are members too

xzibit made strong arm steady to give his underground homies som exposure

dont bring it down to "so and so's better than so and so"

west coast needs new blood. theres hardly any ties with the established west right now putting anything into the project.
