Title: Can you give me some good message boards of East Coast rappers/groups?
Post by: CRAFTY on July 07, 2004, 10:48:19 AM

?
And if possible, boards where there's a lot of activity (meaning, not 3 active members or something).
Thanks in advance.

definitely Okayplayer,i go there a lot now.. on the contrary to this site, most of the members there are black people.. also their forum goes as at a much faster pace, if you make a post , expect it to drop like 10 spots within  an hour if you dont get replies.. there are a lot of members too, and most of them are older , like most of them are probably like 23+ at least..  a lot older than the members we have here.. so most of the time the discussion is actually legitimate, and not back n forth arguing.. and a lot of them are very well knowledged on hip hop (since they are older), and many have industry/friend connects to hiphop/rap and other artists.. another good thing is that ?uestlove posts there very frequently. multiple times a day, interacting with his fans, so i think thats a very big plus. but one downside, is that their forum thing is not as flashy as wcc's.. they dont have a lot of the functions, like you cant really upload pictures or anything.. and just a lot of stuff aesthetic appeal is missing from the forum.. but that shouldnt really matter, you still get your information regardless.. aand okayplayer also includes the greatest pictures with their updates.. oh, and they actually have a very large amount of females on that board too, that are very well knowledged on hip hop..but yeah, its east cosat like the roots, or talib, skillz, shit like that..
      
siccness.net is pretty good too. but its got like 50 sections in their forum, each region of the U.S. pretty much has its own section, so discussion is kinda dispersed..

Thanks for the links & info (Justin)...I'll check 'em out.
Is there a forum for artists such as Nas, Jay-Z, Jadakiss (D-Block), etc...?
