Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[Maximus Meridius]

The west was ice cold from like 00-12 or some **** like that. Game had good albums and good music but he said it himself he was alone. No one else was popping for mad long.

Not just Game either. Other Westcoast rappers used to say **** like "We need to put on the younger generation" "The west been quite".


Snoop been a superstar since the early 90's so he don't really count. That jerkin **** was looked at as a joke. Game was pretty much alone til Nipsey, the TDE movement and YG.

Well, Slim Thug actually had decent radio play and features at one point

 

[Hahahaha]

Yeah, y’all buggin. West coast rap was dead for a decade. Those Snoop albums weren’t real west coast music like Snoops old work. He was working with everyone. It was Game and one hit wonders. The west was getting killed for years.

By mainstream standards, sure if you wanna. Quality music in general, nah. There was a lot going on that y'all probably ain't hear. There was plenty going on. From the Bay to LA.

That's cool. I don't really care for him all that much now tbh. Toot it and Boot it was the one tho.

You would have thought he would have been the most successful from that Houston run.

 

[illphillip]

Who was?

 

[addict4sneakers]

I hated the neptunes and slim thug. I’m glad he didn’t stay

 

[rbk93]

Who was?

I would say Chamillionaire. Mike Jones was probably the "face" of it.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Mini slim thug appreciation

 

[tay1]

Whoops

 

[illphillip]

Flip?

 

[rbk93]

Flip?

Wasn't a part of the "run", but had consistency.

 

[$tacy]

Like a bawse

 

[Peep Game]

They don’t have that run without him though

 

[illphillip]

What happened to Kirko?

 

[rbk93]

Why is that?
