Who was the last West Coast artist to have a hit?
« on: September 12, 2003, 05:24:51 PM »
Serious question, I honestly can't think of an answer.

And I mean a somewhat independent artist, ie not put on by Dre or Snoop.

And by hit I mean a national hit song, on national radio, video on 1-0-Bitch & Dork countdown etc.

I guess either "Thugz Mansion" or "Still Ballin" could be considered hits...

Baby Beesh I heard out here in Minnesota. I was shocked... I never knew a Chicano artist could ever leave Cali. Maybe it's 'cause I made everyone I meet from Cali to Minn listen to Sugar Sugar.

Shit probably was Knoc, if not that, maaaaybe Tha Eastsidaz I luv it. Other than Snoop and Pac, NOBODY west has been on the top ten countdown.

WC The Streetz was all over radio but it wasn't really like a "hit" u kno, especially since the album flopped.

The west gets NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO love outside of Dre Snoop old Pac and sometimes Cube and the Eastsidaz
