G.Black got his foot in the door (without any help) and Game kicked it open (With 50's help). The time is now, we need to get behind our Young artists and push them to the forefront, as opposed to 34 year old dudes who won't be rappin' in another 3 years.

you forgot about e40
not gonna happen because DPG can still drop tracks better then anyone in the west
the radio thing is not about having a backbone.. its about who pays the bills and who makes the playlists.... which is often a company called Clear Channel. the company has a dual interest as they also deal with advertising.. outside specialist slots often used for local news programming the stations get little choice in the actual playlists. you guys need to know the facts about how radio works before you blanket diss them.all these problems go a lot higher up.
no!!.. its not about that at all. its about looking at the problem and actually looking at a REAL solution.blaming people who cant make the change isnt the issue..
this thread isnt blamming older rappers, its making a real good point.look at the eastcoast: do you still see Slick Rick, Public Enemy, Biz Markie, Doug E. Fresh, etc hogging the spotlight? NO.but if you look at the big names on the West Coast from 10 years ago - same people: Snoop, Dre, Nate Dogg, Ice Cube, etc. its sad we still got old rappers like Daz, Mc Eiht, DJ Quik, and so on still tryna blow up (no offense to those artist)I love they music but its obvious none of them are making music as good as they used to. so if they're gonna stay in the rap game, why not do something to help out our coast? help Sly Boogie, Crooked I, Spit Fiya, 40 Glocc, and all the other new cats come up.
