Are west coast hip-hop acts like Black Eyed Peas, Dilated Peoples, Jurassic 5, Pharcyde, Defari, Planet Asia & Blackalicious discriminated on this board just because they are not violent and not "gangsta"????
-
nah, Black Eyed Peas are discriminated against cos they are wack as fuck...the rest are dope tho, too many people are sleeping on some good music...
-
I strongly disagree, check the BEP new joint, Like That.

I strongly disagree, check BEP's joint, ''Shut Up''.

No they treated any different arent over here, neither are non-west coast acts.. the outbound section is thriving. However they aren't talked about as often because the 'gangsta' acts tend to generate more publicity..
btw add Self Scientific to the list..
-
how the hell u gonna forget Hieroglyphics??
and the reason why peeps on here ain't talkin about em is cuz they only listen to "gangsta rap", i guess they like wack lyrics

^

-

-
thanks for letting us know :D
-
Instead of complaining, why don't you post about them then? I'm sure there are some people that would appreciate some news if you have something to offer. That's much more productive then complaining.
-
no it ain't i've created many threads about groups like these and it gets 1 reply max.
-

no they are discriminated against coz they made it big without us all supporting them since they were underground and coz they dont fit our idea of what hiphop should sound like....im sure most of the people that say bep are wack havent even heard one album
peace
-
BEP are pop music.
-
pop is short for popular...pop can be hiphop
why do yall have to label an artist pop/commercial/underground....just stfu and listen
peace

Do you know how many topics I make about Underground artists? Don't give me this fuckin' bullshit. First they say "Well give us more info." I give more info and they say "Well give us some tracks to check out." I give them tracks to check out and get little to no feed back.

They only know BEP from "Where Is The Love?" and on. They may know "Joints And Jams" but thats about it.
Me personally, I never liked the dudes. They're a local act for me. They're from the S.G.V. but I dont know, I just never dug their music. I can't knock their hustle though. They stayed true to Hip Hop for years and it finally paid off for them. How many West Coast acts get to Open for the Rolling Stones? How many West Coast acts work with Juanes or Carlos Santana? Very few.
-
I just a hater plain and simple when it comes to the Black Eyed Peas. Fuck Em.
Will.I.Am just pisses me off ;D
-
i first heard BEP on 5150 Home For The Sick and i thought they sucked back then and they still suck to this day.
-
BEP are wack as fuck.
agreed. that new song.. fuck wit my heart or w/e is gay
-
Black Eyed Peas are a sellout in every sense. They dropped a tite first album, which I enjoyed. They continuted to put out original music for a while. Then they go, get a hot girl in the group JUST FOR COMMERCIAL APPEAL, and make a POP album. If you can call that last CD they had out a West Coast Rap CD, then fuck you. As for the other people, I don't really like Jurrasic 5 because I'm not feelin their sound. I've never heard Dilated Peoples before, but I should, I'll give them a listen later.
-
Defari is one of my favorites, I like all the others too..
Black Eyed Peas are fuckin shit, if you like that shit then you are a faggot
thank god no one talks about them, if they do they should be banned

Artist: Kurupt f/ Natina Reed (Blaque)
Album: Space Boogie: Smoke Oddessey
Song: It's Over
Typed by: ANTRA/Artemis Records, UpToWNKiLLa181@aol.com
[Little Girl]
Yeah, I saw you up in the club, uh huh
You think you was bad cause you had a Jag
[Chorus 2X: Natina]
It's over, it's over now
Move over, it's my turn now
It's over, the game's shut down - sorry
[Little Girl over Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, my daddy's a big time baller (??)
[Kurupt]
I went from canopies to boards, fans to no repoirs
(sorry) You ain't got the Bentley with four doors
K-U, R-U, P-T, any, you just, bring my, bottle, of Remy
Recognize a real hit when you hear one
Postin up at the Playboy Mansion
I stomp like gortex, poetical vortex
Bouncin to Jigga in California
[Chorus]
[Natina]
Wha-wha, wha-what? C'mon, yo (what up in here?) yo, yo, yo
It's the N-A, T-I, aww, you know the rest (uh-huh)
Silly how frequently they contest (uh-huh)
I done toured across the seas and been across the world
I done it for all y'all, my cats and my dawgs (haha, haha)
It's over, cause I'm bad to the bone (haha, haha)
Leave a real diva to her own, alone
I drive in Jaguars, so many different cars
Life as a pop star, shouldn't be this hard, c'mon!
[Chorus]
[Kurupt]
Suckas..
This is how life should be (uh-huh) my girl and my peeps
Don't make me remind you (uh-huh) I stays V.I.P.
(move over) For all my dime piece, all of my G's
Hustlers and pimps, with shiny wrists, making money
cause my turn to shine and my turn to floss (bling bling)
Like you play the game I stomps the Billboard
One thing for sure, G's hit the door
Tone and Poke know Natina does not play
When she get on the mic she say what she gotta say
(say) And Dr. Dre and Snoop, know Kurupt is ill (ill)
From East coast to West the unforgettable skills
Bust from head to head (c'mon) sippin on Remy Red
Runnin from club to club, nickels and dimes and dubs
Ready to rock spots, fours and drop tops
Kurupt and gangsta rap, Natina be runnin pop
[Chorus to fade w/ adlibs]

It's as gay, if not "gayer" than "Shut Up" or virtually any Black Eyed Peas song these homos here think is gay. LOL.

yes it is. I have no clue what song shut up is, but I think BEP is very gay music, and so is kurupt wack ass its over song. but kurupt has many great songs, can't say the same about bep.
-
ive heard more than enough of the Black Eyed Peas for me to be able to say whether they are wack or not...and imo they are...Joints and Jams, BEP Empire and a few other tracks were tight, but i havent heard anything else, especially in the last few years, that has made me want to listen any more...
-
I first heard black eyed pease on Joints and Jams, and didn't really like em. I thought the songs they did with Esthro and Macy Gray were good. I'm not really a fan of theirs, but I know that they try to remain true to hip hop with all the success they've had. Props to them for makin money.

Yup!
Track 6 off their new album:
6. Like That (Featuring Cee-Lo, John Legend, Talib Kweli & Q-Tip)
A track featuring Cee-Lo, Kweli and Q-Tip, that's Hip Hop if I've ever seen it. Yes, they make "Pop" songs, but so does Eminem. So has Kurupt. A lot of artists do it. And, at the end of the day, you can't say BEP are not Hip Hop. They lived Hip Hop for years. They stayed truer than true to Hip Hop. So while Eminem was battling boy bands and Kurupt was bouncing over kiddy tracks, they were still B-Boying.
They still B-Boy... Peep the "Hey Mama" video. Shit, Will.I.Am's show on MTV2 would end everytime with him Freestyling. They just happened to find success in have a female sing their hooks, their music is virtually the same. Yes, I think they're wack. Do I think they're gay? Nope. Only you faggots online are that insecure with your sexuality that you think that.
-
^^^ o man, just stop comparing Kurupt's one commercial track to the Black Eyed Peas
I can't believe you're blind enough to not see what a fuckin marketing tool Black Eyed Peas is
Just a bunch of faggots trying way too hard to be original and innovative, nothing more irritating than that
Please don't compare Kurupt to Black Eyed Peas
that stupid "It's Over" track is better than the whole damn Black Eyed Peas group itself
Kurupt pisses on that shit, this doesn't even have to do with Kurupt, it's embarrasing that you like Black Eyed Peas
i can only imagine how gay they are and the majority of their fans are to attempt to listen to that wannabe "creative" hip-hop sound
what a gimmick, an A&R's dream

:D
Read people, read....

Jurassic 5 is one of my favorite groups, I bump their shit all the time and put up their shit in the Hookup Spot sometimes, I just don't talk about them here because nobody really seems interested in them. Are they west coast?
Anyway, Black Eyed peas are fuckin idiots, I fuckin hate that girl and that whole damn sellout group.
EDIT: Oh yeah I like Dilated Peoples.
-
Dilated People,Jurrasic 5,Black Eyed Peas,The Hieroglyphics,Hobo Junction,The Pharcyde,Freestyle Fellowship,Living Legends, just to name a few, are true West Coast Artists themselves in their own right. It's just that they are not considered gangster rap like what West Coast Hip Hop is famous for.As for BEP, I liked their early work but lately they have been more commercialized with their music.
Adding Fergie as a singer to the group(I heard her sing live twice and she sucks) was a bad choice.She's not exactly Lauryn Hill like where she can sing and spit like the ex-Fugee can.BEP is what they are,take it or leave it.You don't have to buy and listen to their cd's.

You are an idiot.
Anyone who knows BEP knows that their steez was always B-Boying. You're just one of those Upper Middle Class idiots who lives vicariously through "Gangsta" rappers. You can bet if "Its Over" would've blown up, Kurupt would've made songs like that over and over. BEP found their cash cow, Fergie. Can't hate them for staying true to Hip Hop for so long. They gotta eat too.
You're an ignorant person. You don't know BEP and yet, you call them Gay? They'd probably whoop your ass if you said that to them, but you wouldn't... Know why? You're gay. You're the wannabe here. BEP = Hip Hop. You = Shit.
-
Enough about the Black Eyed Peas. I don't like em, so I don't listen to them. Simple as that.
But what ever happened to 4th Avenue Jones? I only have a couple tracks from them and they are pretty good.
-
nah, Black Eyed Peas are discriminated against cos they are wack as fuck
no they are discriminated against coz they made it big without us all supporting them since they were underground and coz they dont fit our idea of what hiphop should sound like....im sure most of the people that say bep are wack havent even heard one album
peace
now that's bullshit. some people supported them. i bought their first album, and have to say it's a dope fuckin album. they were real underground cats. real hip-hop dudes. then, for some reason, they picked up some really hot chick for their group and started doing coke commercials and nba commericials. they are the epitome of 'selling out'.

100%true!
-
So do you guys expect these rappers to put their heart and soul into their music and make little to no money off it? LOL. Fuck outta here man. They did their duty to Hip Hop by staying true for so long. Dudes are well into their 30s already, they need to make money. "Joints and Jams" type of tracks weren't keepin' their pockets fat... At the end of the day, they need to eat.
-
Black Eyed Peas have been grinding for a long time now.It's nice to see them make it "mainstream" nowadays.Call it what you want,
I just never liked the idea that they added a female singer to the group for eye candy because like i said,Fergie's not that great a singer.Most people forget BEP was signed by the late Eazy-E to Ruthless Records back in the day and they hail from East L.A.
