Eminem IS NOT a west coast rapper,so......why topics about him still here in the WEST COAST news/rumors section of the forum instead of "Outbound Connection"?

Maybe 'cause The Outbound Connection forum hasn't been there that long yet?

I think it's safe to have Em related threads still posted in here, I mean he is affiliated with Aftermath which is evidently a westcoast based label.

Yea, hes not from the West.. (I.E. Pac) but he's West in my eyes.  With him doin more work on his own and working with Shady Records hes moving into that pop zone, but as long as he keeps droppin tracks with Dre like that new JD diss.. hes West in my eyes.  That song has me soooooo open!  The illest shit Ive heard from Em since Forgot About Dre.

i agree, aftermath is not a westcoast label, it's more like a all coast label. Rakim is from the east (right?) and knocturnal is from the west. But its just that eminem is westcoast related. That's why it should be ok.

what the fuck...

1. you know that myrealname got banned

2. he wasn't a real fan but a switch

3. i don't see a link with snoop , because thats overseer who don't want people to post on artist out the west here, so i agree with him that now the eminem posts should be on the outbound section.
Title: Re: EMINEM IS NOT A WEST COAST RAPPER
Post by: =[Euthanasia]= on May 02, 2002, 10:02:30 AM
Put it this way, Dre is a hip-hop pioneer from the westcoast, when I think of Aftermath I think of Dre who is the figure head of the label, who is a westcoast rapper/producer hence the labels connection to the westcoast. Now take Tha Row for instance, it's renouned as a westcoast label, but not all the roster are from the west. N.I.N.A wasn't from the west but was still signed. Kurupt came from Philly, & 'Pac was from New York, both these 2 never really repped the West to the fullest until they hooked up with Death Row, but that never made Death Row any less of a westcoast label. The label can't exactly make the artist/s who are signed automatically claim that coast, i.e Rakim or Em, but they are related to what I consider a westcoast based label therefore they belong in this forum  ;D

so duz that mean that any busta threads are gonna be allowed here?

daz is gonna be workin with p. diddy, can threads about him be left here?

many more, like i sed in the 'outbound connection' forum...it's too difficult now to determine where shits gonna go...it just messes things up....
Title: Re: EMINEM IS NOT A WEST COAST RAPPER
Post by: 4 KiN L on May 02, 2002, 10:39:13 AM
put it this way...rappaz that be claimin westcoast, livin on tha west shud be ok...even if it aint where they from.

eminem is proud of where he is from and duzn't try to claim the west...so give him his place in the 'outbound connection'

i think we shud be rid of the outbound connection cos if sum cunt posts about a rappa they never heard of...how the fuck will a mod know wheather its westcoast or not?

and also all coasts seem to colaberate these days...so if like u say em is workin wit dre so he belongs here...there are a lot of east coast rappaz that be doin shit wit producers from the west. so just have shit how it was b4...

it wud be less difficult for us 2 cos now we have to look through 2 fuckin forums instead of just the 1...and this board (yesterday) was fuckin flooded with locked/moved threads.

It's only difficult if you don't know your westcoast artists from your eastcoast artists which most do here anyways. The way I see it, if a thread is directly related to a westcoast artist then yeah why not post it up in here, like most of the Em threads, D12 topics for instance could be posted in the 'Outbound' if it's just to talk about the group, but say it was related to some track Dre might of produced for them then it would be ideal to post it up in here. I dunno, thats how I see it, it's common sense really if you think about it  ;D

I think that Eminem should stay. Eminem is on a westcoast label, though Aftermath is all coastal, but this is a board that was based off Dre2001, so we should stay loyal to Dre and his Aftermath. And why isn't this said about Rakim. Really, it seems only Em haters are the ones that want Em off. Aftermath is head off by Dre, and this was from Dre2001, so Dre and his label should say, and hence Eminem should stay, case close. And I think Overseer seems to agree too.

704d read what the fuck i've put...i sed not every mod who has power to lock and move knows where every fuckin producer is from...so if sum1 east coast has a track produced by sum cunt from the west and it gets moved to the outbound connection, that aint fair coz all the eminem/rakim and shit will be left here just got they got production from dre...

whether u like to admit it or not...it makes more sense to just fuckin leave it as it was b4...

I'm Sure To Become Mod You Should Know Where Producers Come From, If Not, Then There Is Plenty Of Moderators That Do. I'm Sure It Would Be A Rare Case If Topics Got Moved To The Wrong Forums. The Easiest Way Round It Is Not To Be Really Strict On Threads That Are Posted In Wrong Forums - And If Your A Moderator And Aint Sure, Then Just Dont Touch It. Its Simple 4 Kin L, Your Just Trying To Complicate Things. Oh And One More Thing, I Dont Think It Really Matters Where The Hell Posts Are, Because The "Outbound Connection" Board Is Getting Some Major Posts On It.

yeah i do

"Discuss the latest news, rumours, and opinions on everything West Coast."

Everything 'west coast' includes Aftermath as its spearheaded by (IMO) the west coast's greatest... so anything on the 'math is west coast related.  
Same goes for anything Rakim does.

if jigga works with daz.. then its west coast
if jigga works with puffy.. then its not
if jigga gets dissed by nas - its not
if jigga gets dissed by suge - it is..

Hmm, Though I'm Only One Year Older Then You I'm Quite Happy That My Vocab. Has Gone Past Words Like Saying 'Cunt' In Every Sentence. For Your Benefit Only 4 Kin L I Will Repeat What I Said:

"If Your A Moderator And Aint Sure, Then Just Dont Touch It."

We Have Six (I Think) Of Very Knowledgable And Respected Cats As Moderators, And I Am 100% Sure That Atleast One Of Them Will Know Where A Producer Comes From. My Suggestion To You Would To Just Be Quite And Stop Making A Fool Out Of Yourself.

i dont give a fuck where y'all put the eminem topics, but i just wanted to say please dont say shit like Pac wasnt really west coast or Kurupt or Xzibit or whoever.

All those cats REPRESENT the west coast and stay there, regardless of whether they're born on crenshaw and slauson or in Bumfuck, Idaho.

eminem stays in detroit right? and ive never heard him claiming west coast, LA, Frisco, Sac, or anywhere except Detroit in his songs. so that would make him midwest.

but like i said, i dont mind the Em posts in here, there or anywhere.

rakim is east coast...

kurupt is from philly, right?...
the outlawz are from jersey...

tryin to make distictions between coasts and then stickin to the conclusions so strictly that people need to do a background check on artists just to figure out where to post is stupid...

if this is the west coast connection forum then thats cool... represent... but all other forms of hip hop should not be banned and/or moved to a separate "segragated" section.

it should all be included in one discussion board

How intelligent and mature is to beef about this topic? I agree with Overseer here. If Em is someway related to West Coast (beats produced by Dre, or he's down with Dre, or he disses some1 on the WC, etc..) then he deserves to be here. Personally i dont care about all this gossip and rumors about his album (it aint out yet, so..), but i dont care about posts about him.

The only things i hate is when some1 (no names) writes/wrote tons of topics about Ja Rule, DMX, Nas, Mary J Blige, etc.. That's what i hate, cause they are in no way related to Cali or WC.

Please stop beefing like kids. You all gotta use this board to learn more about music, not to be the boss, or to start net beefs. I dont fucking care about this shit.

The 'outbound connection' section gives people a chance to post as many non-westcoast related threads as they want, whereas if they did that here it would make this section look untidy & flood the board & would flush out the west related topics that this place was made for in the first place. I personally see the 'outbound connection' section as an advantage to this whole site, I love it & will use it just as much as this section, for the ones not feeling it so much give it a chance.
