RR appeared on some remixes, Yuks Da Town, & Philthy Rich Feeln like Pac
-
Iam sure Rick Rock still around? cant think of a recent example though.
Celly Cell was on DPG's "100 wayz" album. last actually song i remember from him he was rapping and the beat kept changing, switching through old classic beats. I forget teh title or where it was from.
I only breifly flicked through that Richie Rich mix tape. Production sounded terrible. Didnt liosten proper though, also featured teh scrapped song he did with Snoop for "the blue carpet treatment.
Rich still features on albums, he been on Yukmouth albums and iam pretty sure he featured on Yukmouths upcoming album.
-
i guess cuz they old.but rick rock still around.wish celly cell was still doing it tho.that dude was oen of my favorite bay area rappers
-
sadly it seems like these bay area rappers have kinda simmered away....except maybe Spice 1....I still bump my 90's bay music like it aint ever gettin old!
-
Rick Rock had some cuts on E-40's Revenue Retrievin and hasnt he produced something on the new HoodStarz record?
-
Rick Rock - was just on multiple cuts from E-40's albums and was on 50's album last year amongst others
Ant Banks - went into real estate like Fab said
Celly Cel - other than his feature on DPG's album I think he does some behind the scenes work with Sic Wid It
Richie Rich - still drops verses here and there on others' albums
-
Alot of artists went to shit when ANT BANKS quit...
-
It will never be the same . Rick Rock had it on lock in '02 and '03 .
-
Rick Rock will always be around.
Richie Rich had amazing chemistry with 2Pac. His 2 features on All Eyez On Me are classics. "If you gun bleedin, and you needin, more than 10 stitches you behave like them bitches" lmao! Other than that I never really listened to him.
I never really listened to Celly Cel either other than "Its Going Down". My dad was a huge fan and I used to always hear that song playing at his house so it became a staple in my frequent playlist.
Whats the real story with Ant Banks? I've heard rumors and speculations but did he ever come out and say 'yeah I quit and I sell houses' or 'I got blackballed' or anything?

His last album he did was a couple years back was with some dude name "LD" or someting. He was supposed to drop an album called "Da Town Buisness" but it never came out. I doubt he retired just getting that real-estate cake in ATLANTA. He must be making a grip because he went there around the time it started to boom 96-97....
-
I hope Celly Cel comin' out with some new music soon. "Killa Kali" is one of my favorite Bay area albums, straight classic.
-
last i heard richie rich was signing with mack dime...
-
It's a shame...95% of the key players have all withered away ..Too much focus on Dre .
-
well you cant really blame richie rich, dude has been rapping since WAY back in the day. it sucks that banks is doing his own thing but hey you gotta make a living and maybe hes making better money. and as far as a i know celly cel is just taking steroids and fucking hoodrats all over the bay

Banks is on his way..... 8)

i really have to go hard and invest in some 90's bay shit but dudes gotta get back to being musical again like back in the days. you don't have to replicate the sound but evolve while keepin' a trademark. the west coast production besides a few great producers try to fit wit what's in when they really don't need to. no one cares about the craft no more it seems.
-
Celly and The Luniz were both top notch talents...RBL ofcourse had two classic albums . E-40 had his best years in the 90's . Keak was the last of the classic makers with " Copium ". Also, MC Breed seemed like he had major bay luv ...Good ol' days ....
