Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

You ain't answer the question
How somebody gon singlehandedly hold down the West in the EARLY 2000s when his first album came out in 2005??

2005 isn't considered early 2000s? My bad didn't know we were getting so technical with the years

If you look into my eeeeeeyyyyyeeeessss

People playing themselves if they’re trying to claim Snoop was holding it down for the West with those post-Blue Carpet Treatment albums his most notable song during that period was Sexual Seduction

Blue Carpet Treatment came out in 2006 so that's still the better part of the decade

Ain't nobody tryna discredit his pen or influence but to say but to say nobody was putting on for the West during the EARLY 2000s (he damn sure wasnt) is revisionist history

Before Game album dropped, everybody was c-walkin, and makin sure the flag was on the left side. Xzibit was dropping big albums too

Game got people outside of Cali to want to start ****ing with the Westcoast again. Snoop was washed at that point but stayed relevant because of his tenure in the game.
Game was the reason you heard of K. Dot, Jay Rock, Nipsey, and a ton of other west coast acts. He also helped west coast artists get record deals because of a few features he put them on.
Not even going to mention how his gang affiliation sparked some your favorite artists to put on a red rag and how you see a dominance of the red rag still in the game today. Game's antics may be cringe worthy but you can't deny that dude is a beast when he gets in the booth.

Game was taking all of them out on tours with him helping them build their buzz. He's almost like a West Gucci Mane how helped put dudes on.

Obviously the early 00's timeline is off cuz Game wasn't out til 05.


But he was the only new talent going strong out west from 05 til TDE/YG.

The point is Game was dropping QUALITY albums during that period, and as recent as his last album. Blue Carpet Treatment was dope, but please list your favorite songs from Neva Left, Ego Trippin, Coolaid, and Doggementary.......

.....you can’t.

Xzibit was also curtains by the time 05 came (musically) so I’m not sure why he’s being mentioned. Also, how could Game hold down the early 00s when he wasn’t even on radar in the early 00s? People are talking about West coast music from 2005 and on and nobody resonates more than Game, then later Kendrick Lamar.

Game is clearly in album roll out mode, Kanye complaining would benefit him greatly in the marketing department.

Game really tryna troll his way into an album rollout , for being a “West Coast Legend”, he don’t need to take this route

Kylie x Frosted Flakes is hot in the streets?

Mentioned them in my previous post

 

[TipsyMcStagga]

Early 2000s to me means '00-'05. That's why I said it. Didnt think I had to get specific with the year since it was obvious lol

Btw, that frosted flakes line is just a play on words because Kylie posted a pic of a bowl on IG one time saying "he loves to feed me frosted flakes" or something similar to that nature.
