Is it just me or...
« on: August 21, 2005, 05:17:49 AM »
Does West Coast Hip-Hop sound better when the weather's good?
I remember reading a VIBE article a few years ago and the writer also said that West Coast Hip-Hop is created "under the sunshine and therefore can be appreciated at its best when listening to it under the sunshine" (or something like that).

I've noticed that when I bump an album like Conversation (The Twinz) on a rainy day, it doesn't leave the same impression on me whereas I would play it on a hot summer day.

Anyone else who feels like this?

Hittman is not a real person. He was a computer program generated by Dr. Dre and Mel Man back in the mid 90's. When Dre started treating Mel-Man like shit, Mel infiltrated the computer and put a virus in the hittman program

I always say that I can't expect anybody who isn't from LA, or hasn't drove or rode around LA on a sunny day playin west coast music to ever like west coast music as much as we do. To me, it doesn't exactly have to be sunny, and even if it's nighttime, long as the weather is coo or I'm goin to a club then it sounds great.

Lol, same here. When it's winter I tend to play more East Coast Hip-Hop & Soul music. Don't know, I guess it has indeed something to do with my mood. As soon as the sun's out during the winter, I'll bump a West Coast artist. On dark/grimey/rainy days, I usually bump East Coast artists...
