You all have got to check out the Southwest-Connection mixtape series. They are compiled by TRMNDUS featuring mainstream and underground rappers throughout the country. What he's basically done is filtered out a whole bunch of material and put out only the tightest shit. I was feeling about 3/4 of the tracks on pretty much all of them.
Right now he's got 6 West volumes, featuring the guys everybody's heard of like San Quinn, B-Legit, Keak Da Sneak, Richie Rich, Jacka (he's got "Get On Out There" on vol. 3) etc. but what really impressed me was a lot of the artists I ain't never heard of like Thug Lordz (the 50 Cent Diss was HOT), The Izrealz, Pervelous P Camp, Kay-9ine, Cellski etc. (you might laugh at me but I ain't from California so I didn't know about these guys). Dago, LA, the Bay, Sac you name it he's probably got somebody on there repping your spot.
My Cali and everywhere collection improved a lot with all these mixtapes, I would suggest everybody peep the track lists and maybe order one if they haven't heard a lot of the stuff, b/c odds on it will be very good. These are great b/c you're buying an album with more tight tracks for about 1/2 the price (they're $7). This is real talk. I've had nothin but the SW Connection mixtapes in my cd player, in my car, for about the past 3 weeks (when my shipment came in the mail).
