Yeah, of course. But it's not because your mom wore those shoes it doesn't symbolise West Coast rap, right?

Post by: Suffice on December 07, 2003, 11:24:18 PM: Javier, i'm gonna have to disagree with you on that 1. Most westcoast artists don't focus on depth, creativity, and wordplay. That is not to say that there aren't any artists that do, but it's not something that west coast is all about. i think 2 words could sum it all up though, what westcoast is:

Tha Shiznit!
