Damn E-40 is garbage

Heiroglyphics are all from Oakland yes. There’s so many artists from the bay to say You don’t like Bay Area hiphop. We literally have all styles of hiphop here from boom bap, local shit to trap shit. The Whoridaz were the clipse before the clipse .

 
I don't know why as a a East coaster I appreciated the bay rappers so much

I think the source and Video Music Box showing love really helped that

I thought Dru Down Suga Free and dem were incredible

Yeah man, that BASS, the game spitting, and smooth, playa shit was what resonated with me.
Plus up in western canada at the time It was easier to get the "Rap pages" magazine than the source and they profiled a bit more west coast artists than East Coast

Yo rap pages!!!!

They need to digitize all those for historical content
 
I think the biggest take away I got from 40 was I remember being a child and seeing him on TV and shit. I remember "Sprinkle Me"back in the 90's...and its 2020 and he still making music and making hits. Hate him or love him...he and Short Dogg have stood the test of time far better than other guys who y'all flock to.

Too short moved to ATL before it got popular
he put lil jon on nationally
had songs with biggie and tupac
and if you need 16 from him now he can provide it on whatever you need.
 
I loved that Bay Area sound man. In the scheme of things it never really got its credit like LA/Compton/Long Beach did.

It won't ever get it lol
Everyone borrows from the bay.
Drake
the L.A. sound right now is just ant banks.
for the most part all of DJ mustard is updated rick rock
it is what it is.
 
I fucks wit every album he done put out, except for the d boy diaries. Haven't dissected that joint yet. Nigga got mo albums than most rappers.

Its hard for me to pick a favorite, cause he got so many but this shit here...

Hold on......Too Short put on Lil Jon?I don't remember that. I thought it was the other way around. :lol: "Blow Your Whistle" is one of Too Short's biggest hits.

Yeah and that's all I'm saying. I Think they just need one to come trough there. One of these young guys that's marketable. A little shocked it hasn't happened lately since it seems like anyone is getting a chance to shine. I never thought a rapper like Lil Baby would be one of the biggest artists in the game........in the 90's he's everything a label wouldn't want.

Come on now the other way around with too short?
Too short had 6 platinum albums before you even heard an underground song from lil Jon and the Eastside boys lmaooo

As far as the lack of national is because they truly don't care about going National.
Not at all

Well you said he put Jon on and I disagree. Blow Your Whistle came out years after Yeah. Dave Chappell and Usher can make that claim. I don’t know about Short Dogg but shit you can give him credit for Based God. :lol:

Too short brought Lil John to the Universal and they called him wack and passed on him. Short did several songs with him and Labels heard what he could do and started fighting over him. Too short was like damn I introduced Lil John and these labels didn’t give me any respect for the intro. Short is responsible for how big he got.

So you think he's responsible for Lil Jon going nationwide because of Too Short took him to Universal? Jon had some earlier work with Too Short for sure. Chase The Cat or one of them albums. He came through for him but he didn't make him nationwide. Lil Jon didn't do that until "Yeah" and them Chappelle skits.

Man I been on Lil Jon long before Short came around. We been rocking with Lil Jon back in his So So Def Days...hell I have anyway I can't speak for anyone. Who you think was responsible for them So So Def Bass All Star albums in the 90's? Jermaine Dupri? :lol:

You are pushing the goal post. You initially said Too Short helped him go nationwide and then you bring up records like Bia Bia and Let My Nuts Go. Let My Nuts Go wasn't even no hit and Bia Bia didn't just feature Too Short lol.
