maybe dom's music would mean me more if i was from the west. you are right. he has west coast sounding beats and he is a good rapper but i think he should be more picky about the beats. what i mean with i dont fuck with dom that much is i dont feel his beats. (from the westside vol 2 is really good by the way)

but im more talking about the production/sound/vibe part.

you already mention "new west". what is this new west vibe? is it just based on lyrics and local references? what about the music?

lets accept the fact that what made the west coast popular, universal and special was heavily the beat/production/instrumentation part of the music. 90s and early 00s era lost their popularity, i dont mean lets go back to that eras. but west coast need a new vibe which fed from its roots but also sounds valid for new generation.

for me only kendrick album sounds west coast is "to pimp a butterfly". when i first heard it i thought its a game changer and sounds really unique and belogs to west coast. but kendrick even didnt go with that vibe for his next albums. that was dissapointing for me.

i agree with the kendrick part

dom has west coast production tho .. that u cannot argue
