I'm talking commercially. Having the videos, reviews and pictures in magazines. I'm curious to what you the fans think!
-
I think Knoc will :)
-
Dre's production. 213 Apperances and old classic production from Quik on upcoming project. Good choice.
-
213 or Knoc-turn'al...I can see them bringing the West back...Someone's gotta do it...
-
N.U.N.E., Knoc, Dr. Stank, 213
-
I'd love it to be IV Life... but I think maybe their time will be a little further away... shade sheist/baby ree etc.. may be the best hope this year.
i'll vote iv life anyways since they arent a choice :)
-
Damizza & Snoop Dogg
-
Commercially.....nobody!!!!!
and the only people in your list with power are Snoop and THa Row......
-
Row power what? lol
-
Row power what? lol
more than ivlive or Quik....and that is not a diss to them
-
213 & Dogghouse, Baby Ree with NUNE, Shade, and Damizza's production, LA Confidential, Roscoe, the cats from the IE area like Stank... and Sly of course, with Sway & Tech he has two powerful cats behind his back even if he had zero promotion for the new album..thats about it, Id say these are the artists with the ability to make some noise for West Coast rap
-
213
-
All of them if they are together and make great music together
-
Rass Kass...
But...
Tha Row & Crooked I = Tha row had their chance when crooked I was hot. Disfunktional Album was Suges attempt at copying Murder Incs success, but failed. Crooked I is getting worse every song he does and everything row put out flops. Lets take it, 2Pac, Snoop and Dre made Deathrow, without them nobody gives a fuck about um.
Knoc-Turnal = Hell nah, he is just Dr Dre's left off. Not a bad MC but no way can he create a movement.
213 - Warren, Snoop Etc = MY CHOICE AND GOOD CHOISE! .... As long as its a WESTCOAST ALBUM and Snoop doesnt make a Paid the cost to be da boss PART2
IV Life Records = MY 2ND CHOICE, It all depends on their 1st major and how well it does. But with Dj Slip and Tray Dee 2 of the westcoasts VETs I would say these cats. they are real ass niggas too, respected in the streets.
Tha Realest & 2Real = Hell nada, he lost his man-hood with "Fuck Hollywood". He wont even bring himself back, let alone the whole Westcoast
DJ Quik & Amir = Quik maybe, if he stays doing Gangsta, Amir no...
-
Row power what? lol
more than ivlive life or Quik....and that is not a diss to them
Yea really!
-
The 213 album will hopefully bring some more exposure back to the west, but as for the future you have the whole Damizza, Shade Shiest crew who are coming with some dope shit, plus Damizza has connections throughout the industry which will help them get more exposure. IV Life are coming with some dope shit, but I can't really see them being that commerically successful. Knocturnal and LA Confidential have a chance at being big, but its all on whether they can release Knocturnal's album before most of the mainstream have forgotten about him.
-
213 8)
-
Out of that list, Id have to say 213 becuase its gona be be a major release not only for the westcoast, but for music in general. Im expecting nothing short of a classic from the 213 album and I know the group of Snoop, Warren and Nate Dogg will bring the west back and get major exposure more than anyone else on the list. I hope Knocturnal follows up with a dope album and keeps the west in the spotlight tho.
-
213 is the closest bet. Knoc is not really liked by most heads cause his flow is too unorthodox.
-
Naw I doubt 213 will put the west coast back on the map. Let's be truthful most of you say because Snoop will be involved? Do you guys remember Tha Eastisdaz? Snoop only helped them sale 2 million at most. I like Warren G but sadly most people that's not a real west coast head don't even know about Warren G anymore or even care which is a shame. Nate Dogg can't carry a solo album for some reason and only help others sale when he does a guest spot. Snoop can still sale around 1 million copies but if it wasn't for Pharell on that single I doubt he would have even gone platinum. I look at the South and the East and see them coming with fresh new talent like a 50 cent on the east or a Ludacris. 50 Cent isn't new he just new to the mainstream fans, but what has the West put out new and fresh? The last platinum west coast artist besides Snoop and Dre was Xzibit. But after that whole else has gone platinum? So to answer that the West needs anyone to step of that's a fresh face and coming with something a little diffrent then the same stuff and the same faces.

True but the average East Coast head will still say how much the West is dead and that we only have Snoop and Dre.
you just said it urself man ....Snoop.Dre.Xzibit will bring the west back and those 3 always bring something new

213 is in the best position right now, unless Snoop ruins it with wack cameos from pop-rappers.
Knoc-Turn'al can blow up at any given time. Destined for stardom.
Xzibit will continue to be one of the biggest on the West, behind Dre & Snoop..
Ice Cube will be real big, first with a solo, and then maybe WSC.
Eastsidaz will never go more than platinum, but still among the best music-wise..
Damizza have a great career in front of him, but only as producer.
IV Life - seems promising, but they're far from big yet. Can make it big if they stay buzzing.
Warren G & Ras Kass - As dope as both of them are, I think their time have passed. They might go gold, but bring the West back.. :-\
Roscoe - Will always be just Kurupts younger brother.. at least for the 2-4 next years.
-
I think the NEW talent will be the one to accomplish this. I'd say either Knoc or Amir.

Dre have tossed Ras 2-4 beats through his whole career.
He is not even close to be a main producer for Ras, and neither are they on the same label.
Your point ? (Besides hating on Dre for giving dope beats to Ras)
