What's up with cypress hill and their new music style ?They dont give a fuck about west coast no more, its sad!
my local hmvs had a few copies of nate and quik each time ive been in but they try and sell them at 20quid or so, so who's gonna buy them apart from diehard fans who would anyway...you're not going to go spend 20quid on nates album just cos u heard 1 track on mtv if ure into westlife and robbie williams. the distribution and promotion for these westcoast artists stinks here in the uk
The West got some talent fo sho..And the veterans should be doing it for some years.This is how I see it:Retiring:DJ Quik - He should be a good producer for some years still..Maybe he'll even improve when he doesn't have to think about rapping, and learns from DreVeteransDr.Dre - Can carry the West as producer for years to come. Detox will change the game, OMG too.Snoop Dogg - Should be good for another 2-3 albums.. Keyword: DogghouseEminem - Yea, he's midwest, but he got his roots planted in the West. Will be a headliner for years to come, both as rapper & producer.Xzibit - 4 albums deep, now considered a veteran. Will be among the 5 biggest names on the WestCoast for years.Nate Dogg - New solo album, new 213-album, and the hook-master in 100s of songs. Ain't no stopping his shine.Cypress Hill - Still doing their thing, but is it soon over?Ice Cube - With a album produced by Dr.Dre, he can't go wrong. Will come back with a bang.Warren G - Will gradually find his place as a producer for Dre & Snoop and the new cats, with limited mic-time. And will be a big part of..213 - New album, will be dope for sure.N.W.A - Dre, Ren, Cube & Snoop - Is it possible to go wrong?New talentRoscoe - New exciting talent, can be big. Will he be bigger than his bro though?Butch Cassidy - A sureshot. Can & will maybe be as big as Nate Dogg. Kills every cameo he's on. His solo career is unclear though, even if he will be a "hook-master".Knoc-Turn'al - Unique voice & flow, and dopeness on hooks.Lyrical gifted, but will he waste it on weed & hoes-tracks?Crooked I - Lyrical superkid, but will he make it big?A talent for sure.Slip Capone - Talented, and with a really dope flow.If Knoc makes it big, he got a even better chance..Time Bomb - Also a big talent, with a dope ass flow.L.A.C. got lotsa talents..Eastwood - Not sure about him, but he's pretty aight.E White - Talented for sure, + he got Snoop behind him.OutsidersRas Kass - He oughta blow up, he damn sure got the gift.Will "Goldyn Child" be the big break?Golden State Project - You really can't miss with Ras Kass, Xzibit & Saafir on the same team.. but saleswise :-/ Who knows..Liks - Knows how to make good music, but is the motivation still there? And will Xzibit help them to stardom now that Tash has dissed him? Daz - Will he hang the mic up soon? Will be a CEO & producer for a long time though..King Tee - What now?Soopafly - Seems fresher than ever, should be bigger..ProducersDr.DreWarren GMel-ManEminemDJ QuikFred WreckMeech WellsJelly RollBattlecatQuazeI'm sure I forgot somebody, but the West seems promising to me..
both due to label confidence
I gotta say that they bay area is the tightest on west as of now.
