although this is a westcoast forum, alot of the threads are about east/south artists like nas, ludacris, busta rhymes , jayz etc... i personally dont listen to east coast besides wu tang or some busta rhymes but i aint got anything against it... i wanted to know how come so many of yall who prefer eastcoast come to this forum.
peace

I feel you man. This IS a West Coast forum, and it has been gettin clogged up with a lot of East cast topics. I don't mind if it's related to the West, but I don't care for that stuff here. That's why I post here, for West coast shit. I think we should stop with this non West coast news. I personally don't have many East coast albums..."The W" - which is burned, and it sucks. "Scorpion" cause of the 2 Dre songs, they are the only ones I listen to. Shouldn't the non West coast topics go under, 'Anything Goes'?

ludacris
Luda isnt eastcoast kid, he's from ATL, which just happens to be in the Dirty South...but anyway people on the east forums still like West Coast and Dirty South...I like all three about equal...and nothin that great has been poppin' in the West, (unless some underground shit i've never heard of...) so i aint gonna just like west, esspecially if nuthin great has been goin on lately, (granted i live in Detroit so maybe y'all Cali cats know a lil suh'in i dont...) so I like east and south too...
-
I like Westcoast better, but i like everything man. I remember i REALLY got into hiphop with Dre and Snoop around the Chronic, and Doggystyle. But when i first heard Nas Illmatic, i was awestruck cuz it was so different. Then i got Wu 36 Chambers, and it was on. There were a few years where Eat coast was much better than the West, for real, and if you were listening to hip hop in those years (When Dre dropped Aftermath presents, and then Snoop with his No lImit shit), you would felt this too.
Ya, this is an West board, but some of ya'll might disocver there is more out there than just Snoop, Dre, and them. Cuz there was a time when i didn't think so either, but that changed when i opened up my mind.
Incognito, "Scorpion" and "The W" do suck, so i can see why you don't like East coast. Try getting some good shit, listening to it, and then forming an opinion. PEACE

Word...Dont form an opinion on a WHOLE coast just cuz of 2 whack CD's....
-
i dont say east sucks but i say that this is a west board... anyway i said in my post east/south artists...
-
I like seein topics about tha east cuz i wanna be informed about all aspects of tha east, two of my favorite albums come from tha east, Nas-illmatic an mobb deep- tha infamous, i like tha west a lot more than a lot of tha east but there is stuff on tha east i like as much as dre an snoop, like nas an mobb deep

Shouldn't the non West coast topics go under, 'Anything Goes'?
So You Think The Likes Of Nas, Big L, KRS One, Notorious B.I.G, Big Pun, Common, Gang Starr And Wu Tang Clan Deserve To Be In The Anything Goes Forum. If You Do Then Your Pretty Close Minded. Most Of The People Here Do Care That Theres East Coast Topics On A So Called West Coast Board. Why Make A Big Deal Out Of It......
-
I don't mind East Coast topics because it's better to discuss all aspects of Hip Hop rather than just being one-sided like all those East Coast cockmunchers or geek Back Packers on the other boards who only listen to one type of Hip Hop therefore making their opinions stupid and ignorant. I love this site because the members of WCC are the most tolerable Hip Hop fans on the internet.
And yeah I love East Coast Hip Hop but I love West Coast even more because I live out there so don't go there!

U GOTTA ADMIT THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST ONE-SIDED VIEWS EVER!
YEA THIS IS A WESTCOAST BOARD BUT SHIT SAYIN
"WE R GETTIN CLOGGED UP WITH EASTCOAST THREADS"
IS BULLSHIT!
THERE ARE LOADS OF PREDOMINANTLY 'SNOOP & DRE' THREADS AT THE MOMENT PLUS OTHA WESTCOAST NEWS AND OF COURSE A SPRINKLING OF EASTCOAST
I AINT GONNA LIE - I DONT CARE TOO MUCH FOR THE EAST EITHER - BUT THIS IS A PLACE TO EXCHANGE VIEWS AND OPINIONS ON IN MY OPINION - ANYTHING GOIN ON IN HIP-HOP
JUST MY OPINION
peace

i love the east just like i love the west, but i don't like the south, its cool to talk about other sides on this board i mean its all rap/hip-hop just dont' talk about nelly or puffy
-

You Dont Like The South?? The Home Of Scarface, Goodie Mob, Devin That Dude And OutKast. Not To Mention The Best Ever Buisness Man In Hip Hop, Master P.
Oh And Erm, Theres No Rule On The Board (From What I Can See) That Says You Can't Discuss Nelly Or P. Diddy.
-
The fact that this board supplies eastcoast hip-hop related topics makes it an even better place to come IMO, it shows that we're open minded & open to all styles of hip-hop. This way we get to learn about ALL styles of Hip-Hop which is a bonus IMO.
I love hip-hop as a whole, but if I had to choose one particular style it'd b the west, but thats jus' my preference.
-
Puffy and P can suck on Deeez nutz for all i care. they ruined the game.
Peace (somehow that's a contradiction)

i never said there is a rule foo, its just that nelly and puffy is so damn whack that hardly anyone talks about them
the south i don't like, i mean people have different taste
-
i agree with 704D this board shows all aspects of hip hop. i like some east shit like BIGGie, JayZ, Red&Meth,Wu, Busta. im not really fellin nas but thats cuz i havent heard alot of his shit although illmatic was good. im feelin the dirty south more than the east tho. i like goodie, outkast, 36 mafia, devin, and scarface. i hate it when people diss master p, no limit and p. diddy when they know damn well they used to bump this shit when it was bigger. IMO
Peace ;D

yeah like you

now i see things better.. thanx for your post! i never said i got anything against those threads but alot of othere westcoast forums i know are strictly west so i just wondered... anyway
peace!

Yeah I Know What You Mean, It's Like Anyone Who Sets The Career Of One Of The Greatest Artists That Has Ever Lived Of Must Be Bad For The Game. ::)
Anyway The Way I See It Is Like This:
Someone Posts Up A Topic And The Title Is Lets Say "Puffys New Album", But You Don't Like Puffy Then Whats The Point In Going Into That Thread And Dissing The People There. Just Stay Out Of There And Let Them People Discuss The Artist. Personnaly I Ain't Really A Big Fan Of Ludacris But I Dont Go Into Threads People Make About Him And Say How Wack He Is.
-
I feel ya Logic......
Cuz yo, Puff brought Biggie into the game, along with Mase (hate if you want, his first album was DOPE).
And master p, he was on top for awhile, who cares, he is doing his thing and brought joy to a lot of people so good for him. Plus, he saved Snoop from Death Row and Suge, so i give props to P.
-
if noone were to talk about anything but west everything would be played out and their wouldn't be much to talk about altogether...i've always came here so i stay cause i like it, but i'm an eastcoast head...does it really matter though, peace.

I Ain't No Big Dirty South Head, But I Think I Know A Fair Bit, Or Atleast Anough To Get Me Along. And The Way I See It Is That Master P With No Limit Kinda Blew The South Into The Mainstream Rap.

true master p did have that influence but he still is one of the wackest RAPPER, he might be a good businessman but not a good entertainer (movies)

I know this is a West Coast Forum, and all but I see what you guys are saying about East Coast news on here, there should be a different section for East Coast,
I dont mind reading bout the East cos I'm still learning bout the hip hop game and its good to know your stuff, I like some East Coast artists but I just feel more for the West Coast shit old and new.
But the only guys I dont really feel are DMX, Ludacris, Nelly and P Diddy, some people may like them but me NOOOO WAY
-
it's like WCV said
if we only stuck to one aspect of hip hop i'd make us ignorant just like all those other geek back packer sites who think that hip hop should only sound like one thing.....it just makes us even better i think, and diminishes the west coast stereotype that all west coast peeps are just closed minded and listen to crap
-
i agree wit that shit, that thiz a westcoast forum. i mean, i got eastcoast cdz frum back in tha day. but u wont catch em in tha car nowhere, shiit. lol. therez only a couple eastcoast rappaz i can stand, method man, redman, biggie when he waz around.....thas about it. but thas cus i dont feel like they bitin nobodyz stylez like alotta rapperz frum NY but, even tho i dont care fah eastcoast rap...i dont mind if people wanna talk about it on here. shit, thas why u jus pick wha u wanna respond to. i mean, did anybody mention rap frum down south? are they allowed tah have they shit up on thiz forum? i think havin eastcoast viewz on hea, make fah good message boardz. cus tha difference in opinionz is whats makin sum of these topicz hot...if it waz ALL westcoast, we might jus be agreein wit eachotha tha whole time....that shit would be borin az hell LOL
-
Well this is a 'west coast connection' board, and the WEST is the BEST IMO, but it would be boring talkin bout it only and this is a HIP HOP board, ppl disscuss hip hop, west/east/south or wht ever, if sum one has a question bout eeast coasr artists, he posts it n gets replyes, this boarrd as almost 1000 members and we should not be only confined to WEST ...
And we get more knowledge this way anyway ...
Iz hip hop, which is not only west, but east and others as well, heck there r sum dope rappers from other sides too

thank you. this is one of the very view places where both east and west are accepted it should stay that way. Too many hip hop fans are ignorant to the opposite coast.

thank u! n thas exactly whas hurtin westcoast record salez on tha eastcoast....
-
personally i prefer stuff that would probably be considered "underground"... artists like The Roots, Ras Kass, Chino XL, Heiroglyphics, Black Star, etc.... but I don't really think I like one coast more than the other... but i do prefer different styles... i'd be more inclined to listen to a release from a well-rounded artist from anywhere than a psuedo-gangsta-thug-playa-balla release from anyone....
i come to this board to check out what people are thinking in terms of west coast artists, and sometimes artists from elsewhere... this board is fairly even minded... unlike a horribly bad tupac/outlaws board i was at the other day ... it was hilarious and sad at the same time.. anyways this board is cool the way it is.
-
I love the west... but I'll listen to East a lot too.... but they really don't bring what I want... to me the East is all about Intellect and smarts... when the west is about fun, good times... and struggle... my opinion

I love all kinds of music and I don't give a shit where it's from if it's good. But I do understand the point about this being a westcoast forum. Then again it's really more of a "gangsta rap" forum because there are shitloads of westcoast rap artists whose names I never see up in here. If you want to learn about underground hip hop and east coast artists, the best place to go is sohh. If you want to talk g-funk or gangsta rap, this is the place.
-
I own more east coast albums. I think the east coast puts out better music. I think the east coast has more classic albums then the the west coast. However, I find myself listening to them both equally, and some of my fav albums EVER come from the west coast. All Eyez On Me, i.e., is one of my top 10 fav albums ever made.
-
This thread is interesting coz it shows many aspects of the Rap world now in effect: heads STILL wanna differentiate between East and West and/or create ANOTHER section on this forum. I take this shit personally even though I "understand" it, coz I'm one very outspoken East Coast head on a West Coast forum, but guess what: I CANNOT stand most of those other forums. I signed on sohh.com but I scarcely go there (even though most cats rip East Coast and shit over there).
I see it like this: I own many more East Coast CDs than West Coast; yet, not too many gangsta rap fans love Pac, Dre, Cube, Snoop and others the way I do. My favorite CDs EVER (besides my 2Pac collection) are "Chronic", "Doggystyle" and "2001". Still, I have MUCH MORE knowledge of New York's underground AND mainstream Rap scene coz I live in NY and love my rugged, Mobb Deep, Gangstarr shit. In other words, I don't see the need to bring even more separation when ONE forum out of many on the net, can have heads argue about Jay-Z and Nas OR compare Last Meal to Top Dogg, especially when Rap artists show us the proper way to do things (Dre collaborates with Eve, Busta and Bilal while Dilated Peoples features Alchemist and Primo on their joint).
The truth of the matter is Hip Hop is ONE BIG family nowadays, or tries hard to be anyway. More separatism couldn't even bring one REAL topic to be discussed coz how would straight West Coast fans on this forum talk about, let's say, a Rakim/Dre collabo? In clear, in what kind of forum would such a collabo belong???? The answer is, it should belong to ANY interesting rap forum like WCC, willing and able to expand beyond its original intended borders (hopefully). That's real...
PS: Y'all can check my reviews: I have Rage, Prodigy, LL, The Wash, Blueprint, AZ, Scarface, Pete Rock & CL Smooth on there and more to come. I'm INTERNATIONAL... Just like Hip Hop...

hell.... i listen to biggie and pete rock & cl as much, if not more than a lot of other west coast artists... why?.. coz its good shit. still i'm heavily biased towards checkin out new talent and releases from the west because thats where my heart is at.
we gotta throw a bit of everything in the mix (ok..but sometimes we get a little too much)
how can we honestly stand up and say "west is best" if we don't know what else is out there?
-
I love all kinds of music and I don't give a shit where it's from if it's good.
that's the truth right there. who cares where its from? if its good shit, ima bump it .. if not, fuck it.

I don't know y'all, lets just keep this str8 west coast, hence the fuckin title. I don't mind some shit here and there, but we've gotten like 20 Nas posts in 3 days. I just ignore that shit, PEACE.

Have You Even Read Through This Thread. Your Nearly The Only Person Who Wants The Board To Be Strictly West Coast. And All The Posts About Nas Are Because Of His New Album.
