We've heard "Manuscript", "Much Real", and now "How It Should Be Done". So far, this album is looking to be the best westcoast album since Dr. Dre's "2001". It's gonna have the same consistent flow throughout the album. Mainly because Ski and CMT produce the whole thing. I think Ski's done his part, he made a dope album, now it's just up to his record label (Columbia?) to promote the shit out of this album. His last album had really good promotion, so hopefully this one will too. But do y'all think the album will be accepted all over? It's very very westcoast, and I'm not sure If everyone is gonna dig that.
I don't even think that many of y'all will even check his album. Nima made a thread about the new song up at Dubcnn, and it got 0 replies. E-A-Ski is one of the dopest producers in hip hop today. And he's never fallen off, or changed his style. He's always made hard hitting Gangsta beats. Right from his early days with No Limit, then with Suave House, his beats have always been dope.

hell yeah E-A-Ski is hella dope. his album will be a banger for sure

west coast music has to stick together,i am only able to make it crack if yall let niggas know its cracking
i will have to put this record out independent,because these major labels are not showing west coast love, look at wc record sales
west coast radio is killing us cause they play all east and south, they dont think we can sale records in the west like we use too
i just got dropped, that whats going on intill we stick together and start selling records again, we are gonna be dead and gone.

ohh man... thats bad bad news :(
hope you can take the project somewhere else
-
for more news on the situation, check out www.dubcnn.com .

man that is fucked up ski. that sucks. I hope there ain't no delay in your release due to this.
-
uhh thats the whole point...
-
I read the article and ea ski is a dumbass for saying this:
"Now on to your new album. Are you happy with the deal at Columbia?
EA Ski : Columbia is treating me as good as any other label. As soon as I sell some records they will be sucking my dick, but until then, I'm just another nigga with a deal that they hope sticks. So ya'll gotta go get the album so we can shut niggas up. "
that was a dumb thing and a Columbia rep could of seen this
-
I mean.. I dont know what else to do. I bought WC.. I bought 2Pac.. I got Daz EP and DPG new album.. I got Gangtsa shit OG.. just picked up Quiks greatest OG.. got Snoops new shit and Welcome to the house..
anything and everything thats westcoast related I spend money on.
.. the people who love Westcoast shit like myself go out and buy it and I was looking way too forward to this release.
SKI's been dropped by the following.. I believe in this order:
No Limit / In A Minute
Priority
Relativity
Dreamworks
Ronland Ent
75Ark
And now Columbia
FUCK EM ALL!!!!!!
-
That's some fucked up shit, I hope you work it out somehow Ski. How about Koch or D3? They seem 2 be putting out a lot of westcoast releases....
What the fuck happened to the hip-hop game....Ski is one of the best producers/artist in the game and yet he may be forced to dropping his release the independent route...that's not what the west need. The West need leaders that help out other westcoast talent (2Pac RIP). Right now Snoop and Dre doesn't do a lot for the westcoast (Dre couldn't give a fuck as long as he makes $, and Snoop can't even put out a good album)....the rest of the westcoast rappers seem scattered and confused. There's no direction or any westcoast label that drop releases on a consistent level. Right now (like it or not) Suge Knight and Tha Row is probably the best hope for the West. Even though they are gonna ride off eastcoast names they are still using new young westcoast rappers and producers.

Tell me this aint one of the dopest, most rarest CDS's...
(http://axlefohley.freeservers.com/EASKIBLASTCOVER.jpg)
I dont even play this CDS its so rare. It would be impossible to replace if I scratched it.
Damn Ski.. sorry to hear that!!!
But for real.. fuck with D3 or Koch. They seem to totally be catering to artists who are focusing on selling to a smaller market. Im knowin your shit can go ghetto plat. 100,000 thousand is all it takes Ski..
Do it Indy. Fuck the majors. The shits still gotta get heard.. make it a double disk with Earthquake as a Bonus! :o :o :o
Ill buy 3.. 4.. copies

Axle is that just the single, or is that a whole album?

Hey Axle,
is that the same one as the Blast If I Have To cassette maxi single? (I loved those things). Does it have Blast If I Have To Radio and Street, and The Interview, When the Smoke Clears, West Coast Rebuttal, OPD and Same Ole Nigga? Because mine looks the same as yours but it says "Music From the Original Soundtrack Friday" down at the bottom. Just wondering.
*runs off to go put this on CD*
damn that sucks, I've been looking forward to your shit since that maxi single.
peace,

I hate it how nobody can realize the talent that this man has. I remember in an old source ad, there were a bunch of quotes from various people and one was something like, "Ski's the only one who can rival Dr. Dre on production". And in my opinion, that's the damn truth. I hate it how he always gets so overlooked. It's fuckin frustrating for me.
I only own one E-A-Ski cd, it's the "Showdown" single, I bought it when I was in Seattle in '98, cuz we didn't have any here in Vancvouver. I bumped the hell out of that CD. I do own a lot of Suave House cd's with ski's production on them tho, and they are all bangers!
