Fuck Hot 97
And the majority of there DJ's

as much as I dislike Hot 97 for not playing some west coast music, "Drop it like it's hot" is fuckin wack, so personally I'm glad it's not on their playlist.....but the thing is, how many of y'all are in the NY metro area? just because it's not on their playlist doesn't mean they aren't playin it at all
-
hmm....i even heard it on the radio here in bombay....and they rarely even play english songs. lmao

I was in NYC last weekend during the marathon... I was listening to the radio trying to hear any Westcoast artists... knowing Snoop had the #1 single... and i didn't hear it (I wasn't listening 24-7, but it being the #1 single... i shoulda at least heard it once). I was at this club on the lower WESTSIDE and the DJ spun "Drop it like it's hot" and the crowd went crazy, but that was it... no other westcoast play... and they were playing old school Mary J. Blige, Biggie, Puff, etc... but no westcoast love at all.
sent Hot 97 a big :psych:
I just sent them an email asking why snoop has the #1 single and is no where on their playlist.
hot97@hot97.com <------- drop them a quick line asking them to start spinning some Snoop and Xzibit... they got bangin' singles out and they aren't being heard!
-
^ fuckin' bitches! my email just bounced... said my message exceeded the allowed size... HOW?! I wrote one line of simple text.
Hot 97 :monkey_piss:

East Coast opression, the West Coast is livin' it,
West Coast opression, the East Coast is givin' it.

in philly they are playin this like crazy.. and at nights i hear a lot of west coast artists..like a month ago.. i heard Murs - bad man.. followed by games 9 min freestyle.. i was impressed
-
That some shit..

I actually have heard "drop it like it's hot" and Game's "how we do" out here in Boston. I heard "how we do" on a mix and the DJ even stopped the record and made it a point to say that Dre has been doing it for a long time and that Game was next to blow. I was impressed.
I can feel it... the west is about to shine again.
WESTUP! :banana_rock:
-
"Drop it Like its Hot" doesnt deserve to be #1 on any list. But if it is #1 everywhere except New York then thats fucked. that station need to get pulled, I remembe on the Beef dvd Mack 10 was talkin about how Westside Connection had the #1 record all over but in New York it had 0 spins.
-
he may not be gettin any radio play there... but i guarantee he can sell out a couple of shows in the nyc.. i wouldnt even pay that station much attention any..hell any station.. kuz i havent listen to the radio in like what?9 yrs...
thats life
-
HOT 97 :scarface: :monkey_piss: :psych:
-
Yeah...Im here in Tahiti and "Drop It Like Its Hot" gets played hourly. Ok, Im off to pick a coconut...ttyl. 8)
-
you guys fail to realize that its hot 97. they'd end their own radio show before they give a west coast song play on a regular basis and they've been like that for the past 6 years.
-
:bomb: Hot 97
-
i live in ny an ive heard drop it like its hot a few times. It was on angie martinez's four at 4. Im surprised to see people shocked tho that a good song like new york is more popular than a wack song like drop it. And why the fuck do you care so much if hot97 is playing snoop
-
alot of you are missing the point by saying "the song is wack, it doesn't deserve to be #1"
Thats not the point. Regardless if the song is wack or not,t snoop is #1 & he ain't getting played in the #1 rap station in the country Hot97.
If u look at the billboard list i posted, Hot97 is playing everybody in the billboard top 7 except snoop.
-
well i live in the ny tri state area an i have heard drop it like its hot a few times on the radio. If anything we should be happy that hot 97 is not playing wack shit like this.
-
Most every song on the radio is wack. So what if Snoop's song is wack, I know here in Cali, all the girls love to dance to that shit, and I like to dance with them. Besides, didn't Ja Rule have a chain of wack singles that were number one and Hot 97 played them hourly. We need a new Westside Connection, and not Ice Cube and company trying to relive glory, but a new group dedicated to putting the west back on top. Fuck all the critics in the NYC.
-
The song is horrible, so Hot 97 get props from me for not playing the song.
Based on the information in this thread:
Hot 97 > any other rap station
-
this a problem with the west... you care way too much what ny is playing an what ny thinks.
-
I see the problem. And I know how to fix it. We need to quit playin that wack new york shit out here in Cali too. We'll see who's pockets hurt the most. Fair Enuff. I agree, Im tired of hearin bullshit on the radio for the last 8 years. And most of the bullshit is east coast. I hate to say it, but its true. It definitly aint west, cuz we aint on the fuckin radio. Last time radio was cool, was damn, when the west was on the radio.
IE
"Fuck all the critics in the NYC, Tryna get an east coast hip hop monopoly"
-
they also don't play e-40, mc eiht, mitchy slick, jayo felony, cali agents, bosko, spice 1, etc but no one's has to make a special thread for it.
-
i live in the tristate area and hot97 is wack, but they are playing "drop it like it hot" every day...only dj who doesnt play it is flex, and hes basiclly on that r&b shit completely...
i mean hell play some comformative hip-hop but thats about it if that.......funny becuase about 10 years ago, you could turn on hot97 and hear "come clean", "I got 5 on it",
"1st of tha month" and "one more chance" back to back.......but apparantley california has fallen of the face of the earth now
-

thats wack

FUCC THE EAST COAST, they a buch of playing hating bitches. They know the west is about to blow again and they trying everything in thier power to stop that shit.
-
fuck hot 97! for hating on the westcoast! and fuck anybody hating the west! radio stations in kali support east coast shit...and the radio being dicks in the east ...so fuck em' if they aint supportin the west on the radio! they never really supported west coast artists anyway....
-
All the more reason why I'm going to get a Sirius or XM satellite radio when I'm plder and have lots of money.
-
this a problem with the west... you care way too much what ny is playing an what ny thinks.
When 90% of the record companys and execs live and operate in NY, it's hard to ignore something like that. I don't think the west wastes 2 seconds caring about what the east thinks, they just want a fair shake just like they are giving to the east on their radio stations, which is completely understandable. And just like a lot of people are saying, NY is the single largest market, and I'll add, in the world. The fans just say "fuck you" to the east, but the artists get paid to listen to everybody so they can make good songs. They have to care. And they care just like every other artist out there. So giving equal air time is only fair.
-
In Charlotte, they've been playing it frequently since it came out. It's #1 here too, has been for a long time. They've started playing more and more westcoast stuff, too lately, but mostly classic stuff like more Tupac and Doggystyle and Warren G, stuff like that. Hey, that's a start, though.
So anyways, if they're doing it here, Hot97 don't have any excuse, you know?
-
they also don't play e-40, mc eiht, mitchy slick, jayo felony, cali agents, bosko, spice 1, etc but no one's has to make a special thread for it.
nobody plays/gives a fuck about those artist and the chances of them getting played in New York are the chances of ODB coming back from the dead. its not gonna happen.
quit being stupid and open your eyes.
-
They are definitely hatin on Snoop.
-
They are not going to play artists that diss their radio station. On a few interviews earlier this year he said fuck hot 97 only westcoast shit they play is dre affilated. Why would a radio station play the artists shit when the artists isnt showing love back? Well look at it this way- the number one song on the playlist is from a singer from oakland keyisha
-
Well, everybody's always saying how Snoop doesn't support the West, but there he is dissing Hot97, because they only play him and Dre. That's a pretty healthy amount of unselfish support for the west from Snoop, if you ask me.
