Title: Why do most people not recognize WEST COAST talent outside of California?
Post by: D-Nice on May 08, 2009, 09:49:33 PM
Like Cali is it's own entity in west coast music or something. I have heard people say outlandish shit like ohh the state does not border a ocean. What is this now a Geography class? It is music lol. Big ups to all the people and sites that support hip hop from wherever, not just if it borders a ocean or not.

BECAUSE THE OREGON/WASHINGTON/CANADA RAP SCENE SUCKS EVEN MORE THAN THE MAINE RAP SCENE

There is some good talent out there but it seems like no platform is out there other than going to Cali to get music heard

Yeah hopefully with Willy Northpole putting his album out it will give more recognition to AZ. Vegas is still building but we got some MCs out here. Quite a few dope MCs in New Mexico also.

Why do Rappers have to dumb their styles down to be successful, and rappers with lyircal skill don't sell,weather they can actually make hot 'songs' or not?

Just plain ol BS. Plus NY scene are ignorant and biased.

its just like most people ignore see the east coast as mostly NY and possiblt Philly and New Jersey. People tend to ignore WC, VA etc. Mid-west has the same problem. Usually its because the city/state hasn't come with its own style or had enough successful rappers repping it hard. Just think if Timbo and Neptunes made a huge thing outta being from VA it would be on the map just as much as ATL.

People do but people wanna hear the people with names.  Most people wanna hear MC's/Rappers/Producers from they area, not on the other side of the country.  The south is dominate everywhere bcuz they just have that sound and commercially it's just better and melodically it's just more catchy (regaurdless of people's feelings on here, it's just a forum not a country).  If New Mexico was a big state like Texas is, trust me you wooda been herd more
