So When Will The West Deliver Finally Or What Artist Will Deliver

[D-Nice]

People are acting like club songs and one hit wonders on the radio is something new to rap LOL

True, for me it is not so much that. There are some dope club songs and one hit songs. Now everyone just wants to copy that one song or hit dance or autotune or whatever. Some of it is cool but it gets oversaturated at times.

[Jaydc555]

That's not the radios fault or tv.Its the artists.If all artists would have some fucking artistic integrity and make the music they want and didn't bend to the rules then media would have no choice but to take chances.But no instead we have people like snoop who is supposedly a legend and supposedly a leader going from no limit to working with pharrel to working wth lil jon to hoping on hyphy then hopping on auto tune.And people buy it!LOL.Then when good hip hop music comes along it completely bricks

PREACH

[Chamillitary Click]

^it's the kids.

Swag has caught on, people want to fit in, girls love Wayne & want to be "kissed through the phone", so guys have to act like Wayne and kiss girls through the phone to be "cool" lol.

at this park me & my dudes play ball at, mad young kids (no pedo lol) playin' handball, like 10-11 years old, rockin' skinny jeans with Dunks & shit.

kids out there truly believe they are a spinoff of Wayne, they know it, but they think it'll get them somewhere.

so the SHIT music of today is caused by retarded teenagers lol.

Yeah I have no problems finding and enjoying quality west coast albums. Would I like so see more have mainstream success? Sure. But at what price?

Price:Selling out, Hypocritical, major of tracks have to be club, toned down.   lol

like how Game's Red Album is shaping up to be lol.

but to what the home D said, if you just fuckin' look there is some dope shit. i don't understand why it has to sell for you guys to enjoy it more; it's the same songs on the record whether they sell 2 copies or 2 million.

if you haven't bumped, WC - "Guilty By Affiliation" you shouldn't even be in this thread complaining lol.

[Action!]

I don't think there's anything wrong with the genre opening up.  People always resist change but it doesn't mean it's negative.  What's really wrong with wearing skinny jeans?  It doesn't mean you're insecure.  It might not be what you grew up on but it doesn't mean it's bad.  Different?  Yeah, but not negative.

I listen to a lot of hip-hop.   For dope west coast hip-hop I'd say check out,

Bishop Lamont
PR1ME
Taje
The Game
Ya Boy
Nipsey Hussle

Even though I don't listen to most of those I listed.  I do bump Bishop Lamont the most.

I'm sticking to my argument that the radio is poorly presenting hip-hop to the masses.  It creates a vicious cycle that pressures artists to be a certain image that's easier to market while limiting the average listener to hearing material.  Hip-hop is old enough to have an oldies hour like rock has.  It's diverse enough to have a west coast hour and an east coast hour.  Radio is on some dumb shit. 

[Chamillitary Click]

i rock Skinny Jeans myself, but i couldn't believe little ass kids are dressing like Wayne though.

it's just that a majority of those kids are the ones who buy the music anyway, little kids coppin' Soulja Boy & the rest of the crap music out.

girls love that autotune shit, guys almost feel obligated to bump it just so they don't seem like fags lol.

but yeah, to add to my list of "if you haven't heard this, you shouldn't be complaining"; Bishop Lamont - "The Confessional".

[D-Nice]

I am bumping one album for sure that was dope from last year and is from the West right now

Murs- Murs For President

Still bump the shit out of Guilty By Affiliation

[Chamillitary Click]

HOW DID I FORGET MURRY?

Murs For President was a top album of 2008, it makes the "how haven't you bumped this yet?" list lol.

so are some of you can see, there is dope hip hop out the West, you just can't look to the radios for it.

[acgrundy]

listen to HopSin, you don't like that; just log off, you people make me sick.

hip hop isn't dead, people are just ignorant to other shit; shut your radios off fags.

People like you make me sick.  I don't listen to the radio except for talk radio.  I don't even know what the fuck is on the radio.  I have never listened to a 50 cent or lil wayne album.  The ONLY rap albums I listen to are westcoast rap w/ the exceptions of like scarface, nas, eightball & mjg, do or die, and some others.

And yes, I stick by my claim.  Rap music is dead and been dead.  The music fucking sucks nowadays.  LOL, this forum talked like Blaqkout was going to ressurect the west...haha that album was lame...boring.  These "new west" rappers suck...they are boring.  Welcome to reality.

Just because some of you are 16 year old kids and got into rap with Eminem, doesn't mean you have an valid opinion.  You don't know what it was like when there was good rap music.  You kids are too young.

lol wow, so your saying that since that kids that are 16 all listen to the same shit basically? I am 16 and i was never into any of that shit your stating like Eminem, truthfully i think that fool is fuckin wack. I grew up on westcoast music from my dad and uncle, fuck, my dad told me on the way from the hospital straight outta compton was bumpin out of the ride. so i think i have an opinion on what good hip hop is, especially on the west coast.

LOL! what more can i tell you? i am apparently some "retarded 16 year old who knows nothing", but recommended an album in WC's - GBA which maybe 30% of this board has heard lol.

find a new genre if you're going to cry about Eminem who has albums better than anybody you could be crying about that we don't know, if you hate on Eminem's rapping, in his prime, you're just too selective a listener for rap lol.

i bet you never heard a song by HopSin & you're going to go & say nobody is left.

you hate on Jay Rock? Bishop Lamont? Crooked I too?

go listen to the Slaughterhouse album & tell me hip hop is dead.

& most importantly LMFAO @ you saying "you don't have a valid opinon" & go on to say that you ONLY listen to West Coast rap, with the exception of a few!

Maybe you should try bumping music from other regions and take back that dumb shit you said in bold. Seriously man you're missing out on some really dope shit because you stick to 1 coast.

Just because some of you older cats got into rap in the late 80's/early 90's and ONLY listen to music from 1 coast doesn't mean you have a valid opinion, i'd trust a ''retarded 16 year old kid'' who listens to Eminem and other newer shit from all coasts more than I would a cat who only bumps West Coast shit.

Where did I say anything about Eminem being a bad rapper?  See, that is one of the main problems with you stupid fucking kids...you make dumb assumptions...it shows your stupidity.

Yes, as far as rap goes I only listen to westcoast...I mean I listen to wu tang, redman, biggie, bone thugs, and the other shit I named, but my point was, I don't listen to the garbage on the radio.

Yes, rap is dead.  You are a lil kid.  You wouldn't know what good music is.  See, I been listening to the Chronic probably before you were even born.  How the fuck you gonna claim some shit about rap not being dead and point out Slaughterhouse?  Again, points out your complete ignorance and stupidity.  What, did that album leak today, and its already an acclaimed timeless classic?  Hahaha get real fool.  There is plenty of albums from the 90's that I have heard hundreds of times, and they still sound great.  These new albums...I can't even make it through one listen.  And the ones that I do think are good, end up getting pretty boring after 10 spins max.

Bishop Lamont - as boring as you can get.

Crooked I - I used to be a huge fan, but I lost interest.  He takes too long to drop an album.

Jay Rock - Nope haven't checked him.  I have given up on checking out new music for the most part.  It is a waste of my time.

See, again, you are way too fucking young to have a valid opinion.  You named 3 rappers that don't even have an album out (well maybe Jay rock does, I don't know).  You grew up in the era of mixtapes and songs dropping on the internet.  I grew up in the era where classic albums dropped.  Albums you could listen to the entire way through.  LMAO...now its considered a good album if just half the tracks are good.  You can't even get an album where all the songs are good.

Rap is dead you idiot.  Look at album sales.  That is the indicator of where the music industry is going.  Rap doesn't sell for shit.  Why the fuck do you think there is like 1000 rappers calling themselves "The New West" for like the past 5+ years, and damn near none of them have dropped an album?  Its cause they can't get a fucking album deal because they don't matter.  They are a bad investment.  No label will back them.  How long do you think mutha fuckers are going to be rapping for free?  How many disco or heavy metal albums come out now a days?  

Now, not to say that album sales = good music, because I don't agree with that at all.  But album sales do indicate the future of a genre.  So you fags can sit here all you want dreaming about who is going to bring the westcoast back, but you are just in denial.  It is dead and its gone.  Like I said, feel fortunate that you got that golden era of the 90's.  And hell, there is still a lot of those artists that make music...only 10-20% of it is any good, but hey I guess it is better than nothing.

I was trying to make a point of I don't listen to what is on the radio.  I listen to shit like scarface, nas, outkast, biggie, jay z, wu tang, redman, styles P, gangstar...I just don't want to list everything I listen to.

I could give a fuck less whether or not you want to trust my opinion...my opinion is that you can go fuck yourself...there how's that?

The point was that in the 90's I listened to EVERYBODY on the westcoast, and they all made good music.  You guys continue to say to listen to this new stuff.  I have done it, and I don't like it.

Again, you kids will never understand.  It is a different era.  You are not old enough to listen to music for that long.  Claiming an album that is 1 year old as a great or classic album is just stupid.  Now if you have listened to an album hundreds of times for over a decade and you can still pop it in and it is fresh and not boring...that is a different story.
