Next West Coast Artist To Blow Up Is...
« on: January 14, 2004, 01:08:59 PM »
Not Knoc or Roscoe or shit...
Knoc had a big chance, but I really don't think he'll blow up anymore.
I think people are sick of people that hang around with Snoop and Dre.

My guess it's some dude no one here right now knows about.
And he'll probaly suck. :(

That's what I like to see: optimism. ;)

I have faith that Game will blow up. If Dre dares to put half the push behind him that he gave to 50, there's promise there.

N.U.N.E....he's got that radio feel to him and his lyrics are the type where its good enough to be on the radio without being too horrible that he should be kicked off the radio...i hope he's the next to blow cuz im really feelin' him

whoever gets pushed the most is gonna blow up.  we already saw what happened with knoc being pushed by elektra, they pretty much fucked up.  they are gonna have to give like 400% more effort on promoting knoc this time around.  shit anyone even know when his album is supposed to drop?  Is the way I am his first single?


Roscoe didn't blow up cause Priority hasn't really pushed a westcoast rapper in years.  Back in the day rappers signed to priority blew the fuck up, but nowadays Priority barely supports and pushes westcoast rappers.  Roscoe needs to get on a better label if he ever wants to blow up.  Shit especially with songs like Get Ready, Smooth Sailing, shakedown, Trouble.  He just didn't get promoted well.  His album is excellent, especially for the avg rap listener.  He's got radio songs, club songs, party songs, catchy hooks and nice choruses, not too gangsta, not much cussing, and they are good songs.  Ain't like the usual crap that is popular.  Its kinda like Roscoe and Nelly have a sort of similar type of album, except roscoe's is 100x better.  If Roscoe had the amount of support and promotion as Nelly I gaurantee he woulda gone multi-platinum.

the game - I think he is boring, but most people on here seem to really like him.  who knows tho, truth hurts flopped and so did the wash ost.  All depends how much money is put towards promoting him.

I personally have no idea who the next on the west will be to blow up.  But I hope its someone who actually drops a decent album, and not some garbage album that usually blows up.

why do people  asume that if the game or sly boogy blow up, they will revive the west?!

seriously, when 2001 got released by dre, nothing happened, most of yall disagree of course, but if dre did revive the west back then, why isnt on top now!?

look at how the west got on top back in the days

it was a whole fuckin crew, i have much more faith in strong arm steady than in sly boogy or the game, but seriously, even tho i have more faith in them, i dont think they will sell much

only sellers in the west are dre and snoop
snoop turned pop
and dre is controlled by jimmy iovone waay too much

we wont see a revival of the west any time soon

i really think that Knocturnal has a chance a blowin' up....he's good...he's been around for a while...and he's got that Dr. Dre type of style that everyone likes, but with a twist...

plus, his new cd is being dubbed "The Next Chronic" Album....aside from a DJ Quik or Dr. Dre release this year, i think this is going to be the Westcoast album of the year...

i dunno...it's just my opinion....

Knoc: Had his chance.

Roscoe: Needs a push. Has what it takes.

Sly Boogy: Gonna get his chance soon.

The Game: Best chance. Rides with Dre, been shot.

Moss Maja: No. Not even an explanation needed. He just won't.

San Quinn: See Roscoe.

Strong Arm Steady: See Sly Boogy.

Left & Locksmith: Maybe.

F.A.B.: See Roscoe.

Unfortunately I don't think anyone will blow up from the West anytime soon. I mean Knoc's been gettin' radio play and videos with Dre and Snoop in 'em and he still ain't doing anything big.

Knoc-Turn'al & The Game got the biggest chances to blow up.

Can never see Sly Boogy or Crooked I selling more than gold, at best, if they have a huge hit.
They're gonna go the Ras Kass route, they're too raw to cross over.

Roscoe doesn't have what it takes, he's just too anonymous.
