That Skee-lo track "I Wish" is a classic imo, that song was one of the best one hit wonder rap tracks ever  ;D I'd like to hear more from him. And as for Ahmad, what is he upto these days, his debut album is pretty good, I know everyone likes the track "Back In The Day" but I picked up the album recently and it's got alot of other great tracks, like "You Gotta Be" and "We Want The Funk". As for Volume 10, I haven't heard too much from him but the last I heard was that track on the Blade 2 soundtrack.

There is tons of LA Underground music that is slept on.  One of my fav trax is off of Volume 10's second album (actually an EP) and features Kokane.  V-10 and Kokane both have a crazy style which surprisingly works well together.  Nice flashback!

You've just stolen my words Axel...

L.A has alot of cool underground cats that went big, but stay underground at the moment. And they still have tons of dope underground rappers that still have to blow up. L.A is and always will be the capital gangster-rap.

I've been busy with school the last 2-3 weeks. I'll write one more test tomorrow. I hope to find the time to work on it in the next few days and weeks.
