No way you can compare Snoop going to No Limit with Mack 10 going to Cash Money. ...you did make a good point about "Hate In Your Eyes" being produced by Dre and him having a lot of West Coast shit on there. That's good. But after hearing he signed to Cash Money and seeing that trash video, I never gave the rest of the album a chance.

Gangsta rap was sort of like a modern day version of tribalism. Back Ancient Africa and the Middle East, members of a tribe would have different titles and job duties. For example you would have your warrior wing of the tribe, you would have your hunter gatherers, and so on. One vital segment of the tribe were the poets. The poets would glorify the virtues of the tribe. The were the voice of the tribe and they communicated their aspirations to the outside world. Gangsta rappers were the same way. They were great poets and artists reppin where they were from and their virtues in heroism, courage, and valor. Anyone who knows Snoop knows that Snoop has a good heart. Snoop is a righteous man. 2pac is a righteous man. The gangsta rap I was listening to growing up was mostly Death Row and it's affiliates. The weren't perfect, but for the most part it was positive.LMFAO... ur either the biggest delusional nerdy wigger ive ever seen or the biggest troll

regardless, Mack 10 has always been a wackass rapper tho i agree, the weak link in WSC
Cash Money has done everything to destroy and ruin hip-hop and no label has done more to kill hip_hop than Cash Money has.
I don't know what you're talking about. Dude's never dropped one wack album and fillers are hard to find on his projects. Mack 10 might be the most consistent rapper on the West Coast.
I agree, i haven't heard the album with Glasses Malone though.

They fill their minds and bodies with trash and filth and never give it a moments thought. So I know it's hard for you to understand. But when you are listening to a Cash Money product you are ingesting a lot of auditory stimuli into your system. And I don't believe in what Cash Money Records stands for as a business and a record label. So I refuse to allow that garbage to enter my system.lmao at u dont want to let garbage enter your system yet your on a westcoast gangster rap music forum for 24 hours a day.. if u havent noticed 85 % of the subject matter in gangster rap is garbage..no matter what the label
