Title: With Game no longer on the map, the west has been set back 10 years
Post by: Detox Iz Not Active on October 30, 2010, 07:04:58 PM
Snoop and Dre, that's it.  Unless your those two, no one outside cali gives a fuck about a west rapper.  Game was the exception.  With the RED Album pushed back into oblivion the west is basically irrelevant besides Snoop and Dre.  Cube's album was............wack, it flopped sales wise, and it deservedly flopped, sad to say.


All these "new west" niggas, ghost, none of these dudes ever going to blow unless Dre exec producing the album



Cali in a sad state right now

From a mainstream and recognition standpoint I cant argue that. There are still good albums to be had out here but hey if it aint from the people you mentioned, most aint checking for it. Decent year album wise from the west though, but quiet. We need more releases.

Exactly. It was what it was. Game got on and the 90's rappers got a few meals off of it but it wasn't like there was a long-term revival of all things West. Game came up in the Dre-Snoop camp like Xzibit did before him.

Actually Snoop's the only rapper from the west anyone would give a fuck about. People only check out Dre if he's producing for someone (which is usually Eminem).

As I see it there are 2 problems:
First: These westcoast rappers care too much about sales & popularity, they just need to start releasing albums.
Jay Rock seems to be the first to see the light seeing how he just signed to an indie, seriously fuck a major label.

Secondly the west is still basically relying on the same producers it did 20 years ago.
They just need more producers with a name,

This applies to the westcoast gangster rap, soul assassin fam is still releasing classics.

2 other big problems -

1 - Record labels won't take risks, they need a big hit first in this climate.

Because records sales are so down now, anyone signed to a big label has very little chance to come out... some were signed back when you could put something out and it would sell a certain amount, but now they don't want to put something out unless there is a sure fire hit on it and guaranteed sales. So you get dudes just releasing all types of wackness trying to find a hit. Then they do get a hit, but the rest of the album doesn't get put together fast enough to capitalize on it and then the buzz is lost. Or the record label wants another hit to build on the first one, lol



2 - The West as a whole now doesn't have a new signature sound, and individual artists don't have their own really stand-out signature sounds either.

In the past, the East coast had its main signature sound of hard sampled beats and complex rhymes, then the West became big with their signature sound of replayed p-funk riffs and talking about gangs with West coast flows. Then the South comes out with it's signature of club hits, simple lyrics and lots of personality.
But now the West either tries to make more of the old style, which is considered out of fashion, or they try to copy the south, but they don't do that style as well as the south (apart from a few times, E-40, etc). Game managed to get on by being part of the self-contained Dre/Eminem/50 Cent thing coming out, but has just made poorer copies of his debut since he debuted, and now is doing the copy the south style thing or trying to get a Neptunes hit (who haven't had a proper hit or revamped their style in years).
If you're not a part of the big signature style of your coast or area, then you really need your own sound, and no one really does at the moment, at least not a distinct enough sound to make them stand out.

1 - the fans on dubcc make the westcoast look like a buncha stuck in tha past clownz when the rest of tha world just doesn't really give a fuck where ur from honestly (just make a good/enjoyable record)... cali swag district, tyga, neyo, nipsey, game, e40, Murs, and the list goes on.  even Waka had the West goin hard on his album.


2 - there isn't really a problem and it just gets OVER exxaggerated by people on dubcc mainly.  it all boils down 2 talent and not what coast your from (y'all still actin' like it's still tha 90's out here)


3 - how many people are actually on some "the west is dead" shit in 2010?  besides this shit it's virtually a non existant topic, everybody else I see talkin about the "westcoast" is usually saying how tha nigga (the subject at the moment) is either hot or garbage and not how Cali as a whole is off tha map (which is so far from true, y'all just need BETTER RAPPERS representin').  The rest of the world can't help that a lotta Cali niggaz aren't that entertaining as rappers and can't break the shackles.  


4 - the fact that 10 years later this is still a topic being created by delusional fans and marketers is proof enough that y'all are still in good shape.  If a new rapper wanna stay in Cali only then that's on him/her but if you're a smart business man then you would go out and turn over some rocks.  My man Hootie from Bompton is all over Waka's albums, I garantee son's fanbase just grew a bit stronger off of that move alone.  So if y'all are only paying to attention to niggaz that's local then yeah sure it's dead (i can definitely say the same for D.C.) but if you look past your backyard then tha game really ain't that bad all things considered.

bullshit, Game's whole stick when he was on tha come up was "Dr. Dre's Lost Little Brother Rapper from Kompton".  You couldn't say or talk about Game's musik without mentioning Dr. Dre (wtf are you talking about), I see how soon we forget.  Y'all, especially you L.B. waz 1 of tha main people goin' on Game for always mentioning Dr. Dre. 



bottom line is these topics are mad old and mad played.  get out the house or click on a different website if u still on that shit.  The WestCoast/California has been gettin' mad crazy love in 2o1o (KRAZY LOVE EVERYWHERE), you're buggin' if u haven't noticed that this year.

One rapper doesn't make an entire coast of rappers relevant.

this. but most rap artists are too stupid (in a business sense) to figure out what to do in a static environment (ie sign a decent contract) so the chances of them being able to adapt in a completely changing market is minimal. a new breed of artist will emerge in the end.

How is one rapper gonna represent the whole coast?? And how are you gonna say that no one outside of the Cali is looking at west coast artist if your ain't going to every state and every country and asking every person?

There are plenty of artist who are not signed to majors who have gained popularity. Kendrick Lamar has surpassed Jay Rock on the scene. Yeah, Rock is still the face of TDE but Kendrick has gained a strong following by doing what Rock hasn't been doing, dropping consistent songs and EP's. Terrace Martin is growing and gained some attention with his last drop. Even without an album, Crooked I is still the talk of the town. You can not deny E-40, that's a fact. That's just to name a few. There's more to the game than the commercial mainstream

Cause Game is really the only rapper aside from Snoop that has had any kind of mainstream success recently. Personally I don't really care about how popular Westcoast music is, but Game falling off hurts the coast from a mainstream standpoint.

Yes, but that's easier said than done. Signing a decent contract only works if someone is willing to offer you one. The contract is always going to favor the person who has the money. Even if you're doing indepedent, you're still dealing with a lot of the same problems. Music is just a tough business right now. The type of loyal fanbase who will pay for your product when it's freely available to download is hard to build from the ground up.

One rapper falling off doesn't hurt a coast. It hurts Game.

And fyi, Black Eyed Peas are from Los Angeles.

How does one rapper falling off set the west back 10 years?

Cause Game is really the only rapper aside from Snoop that has had any kind of mainstream success recently. Personally I don't really care about how popular Westcoast music is, but Game falling off hurts the coast from a mainstream standpoint.

One rapper falling off doesn't hurt a coast. It hurts Game.

And fyi, Black Eyed Peas are from Los Angeles.

Good point, but you don't see the Black Eyed Peas representing the Westcoast to the extent that Game does (or at all for that matter). Like I said, I prefer underground hip hop to mainstream regardless, but I think it's hard to ignore the significance of a commercially successful rapper like Game falling off, especially on a coast that currently has very little successful mainstream artists. Even though Game didn't promote his artists as much as he should have, he was still a guy from the Cali gangsta rap scene that was selling as much as anyone.

How does one artist make a coast relevant? My point is that the west coast rap scene hasn't been relevant in years, whether Game was mainstream or not.

I can't say I agree with him on the whole of the argument since I ain't heard a lot of the albums he listed. However since you're admitting to not hearing them in their entirety, it's a pointless debate. That's not even an opinion. That's being dismissive for dismissive sake.

Bingo. I wouldn't be surprised if the only west coast rap albums he's listened to since DA are from death row related artists.

1 - the fans on dubcc make the westcoast look like a buncha stuck in tha past clownz when the rest of tha world just doesn't really give a fuck where ur from honestly (just make a good/enjoyable record)... cali swag district, tyga, neyo, nipsey, game, e40, Murs, and the list goes on.  even Waka had the West goin hard on his album.


2 - there isn't really a problem and it just gets OVER exxaggerated by people on dubcc mainly.  it all boils down 2 talent and not what coast your from (y'all still actin' like it's still tha 90's out here)


3 - how many people are actually on some "the west is dead" shit in 2010?  besides this shit it's virtually a non existant topic, everybody else I see talkin about the "westcoast" is usually saying how tha nigga (the subject at the moment) is either hot or garbage and not how Cali as a whole is off tha map (which is so far from true, y'all just need BETTER RAPPERS representin').  The rest of the world can't help that a lotta Cali niggaz aren't that entertaining as rappers and can't break the shackles.  


4 - the fact that 10 years later this is still a topic being created by delusional fans and marketers is proof enough that y'all are still in good shape.  If a new rapper wanna stay in Cali only then that's on him/her but if you're a smart business man then you would go out and turn over some rocks.  My man Hootie from Bompton is all over Waka's albums, I garantee son's fanbase just grew a bit stronger off of that move alone.  So if y'all are only paying to attention to niggaz that's local then yeah sure it's dead (i can definitely say the same for D.C.) but if you look past your backyard then tha game really ain't that bad all things considered.


agree with this

I think game's going to come with some hard shit for RED when it drops. He may reach gold. Hate it or love it he has a solid following and he will get 100,000 people the first week to go and support the cd. His final numbers will be aroungd 500,000 though. Which is good for now a days

Thing was Game got a nice buzz going but it was more West Coast 90's nostalgia than any kind of real movement. Labels who already had established West Coast rappers were making some money but they weren't signing anyone new to some huge deal. I mean if the West was back in the spotlight heavy, things would have materialized everywhere. G-Unit would have pushed Spider Loc. Crooked I, Jayo Felony, Jay Rock, Glasses Malone, Eastwood, Bishop Lamont, all of these guys would have had albums already. If it were as big as some people say it was, some major would have given Game a label deal for Black Wallstreet and made a killing. The thing was G-Unit had a new artist and the West had a guy who made it cool to talk about low-riders and listening to N.W.A. and Snoop again. That's cool but you have a window on that and nobody really jumped when the time was good.

How are you not mentioning the weatherman LP?
I'm going to say it's almost classic.

EDIT: And like I said earlier, we need to differentiate between the different types westcoast music.
Nothing wrong with the extended soul assassin fam & Hieroglyphics.

People here are basically discussing the death row gangster rap.

because he was the first rapper in 10 years from the west not named Snoop/Dre that carried weight in this industry

Get fucked dude! The Game sucks! We should be glad his crap hes making with Pharrell is being pushed back. He sucks, he always sucked, and he wasn't really that popular anyways. Who gives a fuck if the Game sells 500,000 copies. NO ONE. Cry some more about bullshit that doesn't matter.

It doesn't MEAN ANYTHING that the Game is off the map. He's not helping westcoast music anyways. He's helping himself.

Saddest thing about Game is he has never really had his own style. He just copies his favorite rapper at the moment. You can ask the nigga himself and he'll tell ya.

And what else am I supposed to post? Its not like the west coast has any non-underground albums except for Snoop ones. Most of the albums I posted actually had quite a bit of buzz underground. Anyone who claims to be a fan of west coast rap post-2000 should at least have heard of most of my list.

lol, I always see him in every Bishop thread. I can't even keep up with rappers I do like, so how does he find enough time to follow the career of rappers he doesn't like? You would think at some point he would've stopped listening.

Everybody know he was a stripper in a club, he never knew E, he used to claim Santana Blocc, butterfly on his face, nigga's an embarrassment to the hub. You want that to represent the West Coast? This is why I can't even bother with this shit. West Coast = Studio gangsta.

When you say he can rap, what you mean?  His flow/delivery?  It can't be his lyrics cuz they garbage.  I'm not hatin but Game is not that good.  Out of all his albums, mix tapes and features, I like about 5 songs.  IMO Not Rich, Still Lyin from Fifty killed every diss song from Game and I am not sayin that as a 50 cent fan cuz I am not a fan of his.  As for dude's character, that don't matter as much as his shitty lyrics.

And its always gonna be a Hub and Dub thang! 8)

my opinion is that he will be dropped, just like Rock City (well, they left in fact) who had bigget mainstream appeal than Ya Boy
