By not letting G-Funk die, you're holding the West back. Thanks asshole. Can we please elevate our game out here? Can we not try something new? Fuck a G-Funk record in 2005.

I think G Funk still has it's place in the west.  But it has to be done right, and it hasn't since 1996.  For too long, people have tried to bring it back, but couldn't.  It's time to let go.

G-Funk is a rap style that was born in West Coast, this style made people understand that the music is very important as much as lyrics in a rap song, Let G-Funk make the world go around, It's Still Bangin with Quik and Warren... Nowadays i want to hear some new G-Funk songs from west, so i can say "yes this is west and i love west"....

Nowadays i want to hear some new G-Funk songs from west, so i can say "yes this is west and i love west"....

? what you mean by its a rap style?
basically its the beats - its those g'd up beats with a touch of funk... and some fitting laid back rap flow... thats g-funk
you probably ment sound with "rap style"?!?

well... nowadays warren g brought g-funk to another level!
most definately he wont produce any new shit the way he did back in the day...
but when i listen to his new shit it's STILL g-funk to me! maybe it should be called newschool g-funk... and back in the day it was oldschool g-funk.... i dont know

and i think the westcoast can roll with this newschool g-funk..., but bringing the oldschool g-funk back probably wouldn't be a good idea - i think that chapter is closed

quik? g-funk? hmmm, mr quik himself calls it p-funk... its way more musically then g-funk and mostly doesnt sample... to me g- and p-funk have a lotta similarities but at the same time are two different genres....
and when i look at quik's late work it aint even p-funk anymore
so the game is definately changing....

summary:
im looking forward to quik's and warren g's new album - and i hope it will fix/set the sound of the new west coast era!
warren did it before... so why not again?

what could stop that process?
no mainstream success for both of them, but ppl are pretty hyped about the westcoast right now,
so hopefully ppl will recognize their talent between all this pop shit and their music will gain commercial success (quik and warren g beeing played in MTV over and over again... try to imagine 8))

so there STILL IS and WILL be g-funk alive... (at least as long as i keep producing  ;D)
you can tell that a lotta westcoast music put out is HEAVILY influenced by that early g-funk sound, and theyre NOT trying to copy the sound

i dont get why some of you are sayin g-funk is dead. just people stoped with it or tryed it and fucked up but i love g-funk its what makes the west coast music the shit i kno i want to see tha shit come back

rap beats suck nowadays for the most part.  there really isn't anything incredible anymore with a few exceptions.  quik still drops heat, so does battlecat.  rap will never ever come close to being as good as it was in the 90's.

huh? one hot album?
what about twinz??? you cant deny its a classic!

i could count more... way more... but those 2 (g funk era and twinz) cant be denied  - so how come you can count only one???
somethings wrong there

you may listen to a lotta shit here and there, but the way you want to make ppl accept and believe your way of thinking tells us: not open minded

try to accept and understand other opinions than yours - you will see the world trough different eyes =)

guess you need a definition of open minded...you listen to that music because you like it, but as soon as someone with a different taste than you posts up, you try and knock them down...

Na... I just like to point out inconsistencies and/or people livin' in the past. If you like G-Funk, good, more power to you. Just know, you're the reason the West never changes.

Dudes in NY ain't still up on some Boom Bap shit. Dudes in the South still ain't on some Bass music shit (Though Crunk is just a harder version). They've all grown up and changed their sound. It's time for the West to do the same.

Simple as that.

Simple as that.

so youre saying it yourself! south changed from "some bass music shit" to crunk, which "is just a harder version"... so they developed their style on their roots...
and i think hope so will the west.... changing from the oldschool g-funk to some new g-funk, but to me (and almost everyone except you) its still g-funk!
just in case im wrong... give me some example of the new sound of the west YOU wanna hear... interpret and title plz

to be fair, i will give a few ones about what im talking: relativez - ride with me (this is even more the oldschool sound to me... - but still GREAT music)
the 2 remixes by warren g of groupie love (this is the NEW sound im talking about, this is noway the old one, but still g-funk, isnt it?)
or what about the SCC? last 2 albums, there are a few g-funk joints on there, and theyre tyte as fuck (if you dont know that shit check out: "so many words")
... just what came to my mind

if this new g-funk makes it to the mainstream: thats another question :-\
but by liking and supporting this shit we're not blocking any other movement, youre talking about

be more specific and give examples. i still cant figure what youre talking about

The Team, thats the new West sound.

That new Crooked I single, thats the new West sound.

DJ Khalil IS the new West.

Sly Boogy shit is the new West sound.

If the West Coast could improve G-Funk into something NEW sounding, then coo. But, NOBODY has even come close. If I wanted to hear some 1995/6 shit, I'd pop in B.G. Knocc Out and Dre'Sta CD. In 2005, that shit is tired and old. The South improved the Bass music into Crunk and re-invented their sound.

The West is still far behind, because it's fans refuse to let go! Fuck a S.C.C. and a Warren G in 2005. Thats word. Time to move on and let the new school finally shine.

hmm, the song i like most by sly is: summer time ... and to me thats g-funk too! rest of the music on his judgement day album is east coast influenced.. and i didnt like it that much... but well, game's album doesnt have that west coast sound neither..

khalil? hmm, hes dope...
but i dont think hes going to get THAT international success

LMMFAO!  ok dude.  go listen to some lil jon.

what in the hell is wrong with likeing music from the past?  I luv g-funk, its my fav era of music, simple as that.  I'm never going to stop liking it.  I don't yell at my parents for listening to led zeplin, when according to your logic, they should be listening to some crap like lincoln park.  New rap sucks imo.  I check out damn near everything that drops on the west coast, and basically it don't hold my attention.  people who like g funk are not the ones holding the west back, where in the fuck did you get that idea.  Rappers need to step their game up and make some quality records.  if anything its fans like me, that still keep some rap decent.  If not the whole rap game would be full of wack ass rappers like nelly, lil jon, bonecrusher, 50 cent, and all the other unbelievable horrible music that makes me wish I was born with no ears.  Game is new westcoast rap, it ain't g funk at all.  and it is completely fucking boring to me.  I listened to it one time, and never have had a desire to hear it again.  don't blame the west's problems on the fans with good taste in music, they are the least to blame.  I would say someone like you is way more to blame.  You praised the shit out of bosko's album.  that shit was fuckin wack.  way below his standards.  I luv bosko, but that shit was dissapointing as fuck.  and you praise the fuck out of it, like this is what westcoast rap needs to be.  If thats the case, don't call me a fan of rap anymore.

Ain't shit wrong with liking old music, hell I bump the shit outta some E.W.F. But, I know that its old music and need to move on, which is why I also bump John Legend, Lyfe, Akon, Anthony Hamilton.

I still bump my Geto Boys shit. My N.W.A. shit. But, I move on! It's old. Those times will never come back. I'm not sit here and hope for this music to come back, because it won't. You gotta let the past go and come in to current times. There hasn't been a hot G-Funk album in damn near 10 years. It's time to let it go.

Bosko's album wasn't even complete by the time you heard it. You were judging unfinished work. And either way, that shit was HOT. The difference is, you're this "Hardcore" gangsta rap fan, so anything that isn't "hardcore" gets the thumbs down from you, for the most part.

So, I'll bump my Lil Jon and live in 2005, you bump your 19th St. Compilations and live in 97.

ummmm crunk music has been around since about 1997 and it's been shitty music ever since... still has yelling choruses, still either the high school pep ralley beats or military marching beats... the most reinvention it's seen is yelling YEAAAAAH, OOOOOOOOH KAAAAAAAY over it

you misunderstood something btw...
g-funk /= ""hardcore" gangsta rap" !

id rather say the less remarkable part of it was violent and ""hardcore" gangsta" - most of this shit was peaceful and kept you thinking about the "good times"...

*SGV-ignorant-mode-on*
for my part ill stop argueing with you, b/c it seems like you dont even have a clue what "g-funk" is

maybe all the shit you said is right, if: your "g-funk" = NWA, eazy-e.... etc...
but you got something wrong there, cause thats most likely just "gangsta rap"

so do your homework and maybe one day we can talk again

*SGV-ignorant-mode-off*

ps: i was answering this way to let you know, how YOU talk to other ppl...
but the difference between this above and the things you wrote is:

im right!

your totally wrong.  yes I luv gangster rap, but just because it isn't gangster rap doesn't mean I won't like it.  I'm more of a funk fan than anything.  I luv oldschool music.  stuff by earth wind and fire, the whispers, rick james, parliament, funkadelic, etc.  I love singing.  to put it bluntly - I love good music.  from sublime, to micheal jackson, to social distortion, to marvin gaye, to spice 1 to wu tang clan.  Ain't nothin hardcore about dirty birdy, and I like him.  Ain't nothin hardcore about Summertime in the LBC, or Starin at the world thru my rearview, and those are 2 of my favorite songs ever.  Yeah, I would bump a 19th street comp over lil jon any day of the year.  I won't be living in the past tho.  I'm not a trendy person.  I don't listen to the music just because its popular and new and "everyone is doing it".  Most people who actually are avid music fans, and really enjoy music for music, usually listen to older music than what is out at the present time.  that is because they have been listening to music for years, and have an acquired ear for GOOD MUSIC.  I don't care what you say, rap music today is no where near as good as it used to be.  bosko's album is no where near the level of ANY sic wid it album from the 90's.  So why in the hell would I listen to bosko's half ass piece of garbage, when I could listen to a classic like In a Major Way, or Game Related, or The Hemp Museum?  The answer:  I wouldn't.

So if you hadn't had sex for 10 years, would you just give up and say, oh well its time to let go.  I'm never gonna have sex again.

Sure there haven't been many good g funk albums for awhile, it doesn't mean its not possible tho, or that people shouldn't want it to happen.  I sure as hell would rather snoop drop a g funk album, rather than the stuff he does drop.  I'd rather E-40 hook back up with mike mosely and sam bostik, then lil jon. 

why does it make sense for people to not want good things?

There's been a lot of bullshit music dropping lately. People that support this crap music that is coming out these days (like SGV), are making it accepted. But if a dope cd drops today, i'll go cop it. I won't just buy it because it's a new artist, and that we need to support new artist blah blah, get out of here with that bullshit. I said it before and i'll say it again, i support good music, when it's released makes no diffence.

Shh... Be quiet Young Snoopie Groupie. Snoop hasn't been mentioned yet, don't get fired up.


you misunderstood something btw...
g-funk /= ""hardcore" gangsta rap" !

id rather say the less remarkable part of it was violent and ""hardcore" gangsta" - most of this shit was peaceful and kept you thinking about the "good times"...

*SGV-ignorant-mode-on*
for my part ill stop argueing with you, b/c it seems like you dont even have a clue what "g-funk" is

maybe all the shit you said is right, if: your "g-funk" = NWA, eazy-e.... etc...
but you got something wrong there, cause thats most likely just "gangsta rap"

so do your homework and maybe one day we can talk again

*SGV-ignorant-mode-off*

ps: i was answering this way to let you know, how YOU talk to other ppl...
but the difference between this above and the things you wrote is:

im right!

im out
pz
The G in G-Funk stands for what? Great Funk? Good Funk? Grand Funk? Garbage Funk? Gabacho Funk? OOOOOH! That's right, Gangsta Funk. You wrote all that for nothing... Woooooomp Woooooooooomp! Hardcore was in Quotes for a reason buddy.  :-X

You don't need to be trendy to listen to whats new or something with a more "Commercial" sound.

Game Related is one of my Top 3 albums, first off. But, I'm able to see that times have changed and so has the sound of music. A Genre can't make the same music for that long and expect to survive. Compare the Beatles to Slipknot. Whodini to Pharoahe Monch. Smokey Robinson to Akon. They've changed, drastically. And, as much as I love the classics, I wanna hear something new and improved. New sounds = expansion. New fans, new genres, new MUSIC! New possibilities.

Someone like Planet Asia. He made classic Underground records for YEARS. He began evolving and he put out Grand Opening, which turned out to be one of his best efforts. It sounded NOTHING like his old shit for the most part, but it was hot. THATS what Im talking about. THATS what I want to see. Because he could've kept making his little Underground cuts and not really touch another audience, but instead, he grew and tried something new.

If we're gonna use Sex as a comparison, then I'll say this. Maybe you, Grundy, like to hit the same pussy, day in and day out and NEVER change. That's fine and dandy. I, on the other hand, enjoy getting new pussy. So I guess you're more of the Soccer Dad With A Vasectomy type, Im more the Un-Married Until 35 Tastin' As Many Females As Possible type. Simple as that.

You and I both know that there won't be another good G-Funk record. You're hopin' for this magical album to drop. It won't. Get over it. Move on.

planet asia's record is cool, one of the better releases in the past few years.  he is an exception.  most rappers do not make records better nowadays than their old ones.  no way in hell is crooked I better now than he was when he first came out.  same goes for 95% of the industry.  If rappers wanna reach a wider audience, thats fine for them, that is what business is about.  I ain't makin a dime off it tho, so why the fuck do I care how big of an audience they reach?  I don't.  there is only one thing I care about - if I like their music or not.  and if rap continues the way it is going, I don't care.  I will stop checking out new rap all together.  I have plenty of great music that I will never get sick of.  and thats albums that I have heard hundreds of times.  these new albums I hear 1, 2, maybe 3, sometimes not even a whole listen, and I am already sick of it.  You say g funk is dead, rap is dead man.  rap has fallen into the gutter all thanks to the fuckin saturation in the industry.  Rap ain't about makin a dope record anymore, its all about sales.  just tryna get a buck.  if you are such a hardcore rap fan, then you should easily realize this.

Rap ain't dead, it's just not what it used to be. I know for a fact that I'll never hear another "Ironman," "Season Of Da Siccness," "Doggystyle," etc., I accept that and MOVE ON. While dudes like Frontline may not drop a masterpiece, they drop some hot shit. While Lil Wayne might not put out a "Ghetto D," he still drops hot shit.

2004 and 2005 were/are great times for Hip Hop. A lot of hot music is coming out right now, will there be a classic (And I mean pure classic like a Straight Outta Compton, Wu Tang Forever etc., not no Get Rich Or Die Trying Fad-Classic) album in the coming years? I'm sure of it. I look foward to it, as opposed to shutting it out.

I've never liked 50. Ever since 99. I like Young Buck. Banks' album was aight, I still think he's a boring emcee. That new Yayo single is hot, but like Banks, he's boring. Game CAN be dope, when he's not trying too hard. The new Snoop single is hot, but he's done.

You don't have to like what's trendy, it's more like, getting with the times. Otherwise, you'll end up like Uncle Rico.

By not letting G-Funk die, you're holding the West back. Thanks asshole. Can we please elevate our game out here? Can we not try something new? Fuck a G-Funk record in 2005.

gotta agree again, g-funk was an ERA. you dont see puffy still walkin around with shiney suits. why? cuz it was played out so he let it go. lets learn from that
