Aight, richie rich a bay cat, down with luniz and all of them.. he got 3 -4 albums and his tight.
top dogg was DR's new snoop version lol.. he was supposed to have an album out but i neva happened.. he had the "cindafella" single which was jacked of snoops track on top dogg.
mac shawn is tight IMO but alot of people hate him coz of his voice/lyrics.. he was on a couple daz collabos and got 2 albums out . both nice but again, IMO.
E-40 is an OG bay cat who got loads of quality albums out. hes part of "the click". hes off the hook cant believe you never heard of him.
The Realest sounds juss like 2Pac, he got some skills tho.. but i dont really feel him. he was supposed to have an album on DR too but again it neva happened... hes from the south
Swoop G was with DR way back when the pound was there too.. he had beef with snoop dunno if its squashed or not, he got some dope trax like "20$" and some more, he got two albums out. worth checking
You wanna tell me you never heard of soopafly?? SLAP YOURSELF REAL HARD ACROSS THE FaCE, I WANT IT TO HURT!! lol seriously tho!!! hes been with the DPG since way bay 94 hes been everywhere with snoop and is one of the most talented producers in the game and is now one of the main producers for dogghouse records. Again he had an album ready on DR and had a single with video out but it never was released. DPG Recordz released that album later on, in 2001. CHECK HIS SHIT MAN!!!
Lil C Style has been with the pound for a long time too, he got a dope voice, he was on several albums and had alot of appearances but not a full album, his album is supposed to be released on dpg reocrdz / dogghouse sooon. He had beef with snoop at a time. Dope rapper.
Ant Banks, now he is one of my fav producers ever, he prodcued all the shit for too short etc and the Dangerous Crew, he got 3 albums out and is one of the most underrated producers in the game. BAY AREA!!!

sorry cant help ya with Captain Save M...

hope i helped
peace

Ok thanks homies, I love these artists, but Realist is to much of a Pac rip off, same with Top Dogg like Snoop, shame though cos they two good rappers,

This album is dope as fucc

The only real new talent that came of that cd was VK. Some say she sounds like Rage but her style is more storytelling while Rages was more metaphors. But this is just my opinion.
