What the fuck that gotta do with anything? They rap its just pop rap, and yeah if you were talking about some rock shit I guess you could bring up green day. And pop rap aside, the "gangbagin same ol shit sayin" rappers that bay area cats say are reppin for LA still sell more. Cube went indepndent on this last joint and he still sold more than E-40.

why are you still making comments you dont know what you're talking about at all...cubes last album hasnt even went gold...EVERYONE knows game raps like an eastcoast MC he even admits this...and yeah he does outsell most bay artist, but if you want to bring him up bring up the fact that hes more interested in signing rappers from THE BAY and other regions of the US before signing a "gangbanging same ol shit saying rapper" to Blackwallstreet...
Nigga...you dont like sticking to what we talkin about do you? I dont give a fuck how a nigga rap and who he sign, thats not what we was talking about. And for yo info nigga, game said his only interest right now about his label is Juice, from PHX, AZ not no Bay niggas. E-40 aint went gold either nigga and he still sold less than cube on a major with constant play of his shit. Nigga better check the facts before you come up in here wit that bay pride shit. Respect me and I respect yours. ANd these ol dusty ass gangbagin socal niggas still sellin more.

wow cube is hella outselling e-40 like you said...i dont "need to check facts" its common sense cube has been rapping longer and is known in more places than e-40..cubes album should be going platinum thats almost a dissapointment compared to his previous albums sells...
whatever he said doesnt really matter he's already created a bigger buzz for Clyde Carson and Ya Boy...but anyway like i said 'PHX, AZ" aint LA...
Haha, nigga you like to jump around to diff. shit you didn 't even say dont you? E-40 been out hella long so that aint no thang. How come on a major he aint outselling cube who doin it independent wit bullshit promotion and so on? ANd where I say cube is "hella outselling" 40? I said cube outsellin that nigga period. Come on my nigga, you aint got no arguement with that shit you was pushin about LA. Better come with a better arguement that got some facts youj can back that shit up with.
im not gonna argue with you no more you dont know SHIT about hip hop...E-40 isnt on a major record lable he's signed to BME/TVT which are both independent record lables, you think because he has a video on MTV that makes him main stream, i bet you think Big Rich is a mainstream artist too because he has a video on MTV and that guy is signed to KOCH records lol...you dont know sh!t about hip hop or the business dont say sh!t to me about sales or anything no more because your just talking out of your ass...all you LA dudes need to get over the fact that no one is checking for your artist no more, dont hate on the bay...come up with something new besides "khakis and chucks"...DRE is the biggest west coast artist and he dont even fuck with rappers in LA...that should tell you something lol...
another big dumb dumbass that doesnt know what he's talking about...no one said LA wasnt doing the independent hustle before or after the bay...but its fact that NO one outside the bay had a hustle like the bay did, this is why Master P blew up No Limit, which he basically "copied" from JT, E-40, etc...their was no one putting out albums and promoting albums the way bay artist were doing it and yes whether you like it or not...LA, The South, and Eastcoast "jacked" the way bay area artist do business....

MASTER P IS A VERY BAD EXAMPLE FOR YOU, HE TOOK THE BAYS HUSTLE AND TALENT. BLEW UP INDEPENDENTLY THEN SHOOK THE BAY AND EVERY RAPPER FROM THE BAY.AND PUT ON THE SOUTH AND NEVER LOOKED BACK AGAIN. NO OTHER BAY ARTIST HAS EVER GOT TO THAT LEVEL ,BUT HE DID AND DIDNT REALLY GIVE NO LOVE BACK.BUT THEN AGAIN HE ONLY FRONTED LIKE HE WAS FROM RICHMOND TILL HE GOT HIS MONEY AND WENT BACK TO "NAW OHLENS".
RUTHLESS RECORDS WAS THE FIRST INDEPENDENT RECORD LABEL TO MAKE SHIT CRACK ON THAT LEVEL. EVEN WHITE BOYS THAT SURF AND SKATED WAS BUMPING THAT SHIT, EVEN GETTING A REVIEW IN THRASHER MAGAZINE IN THE LATE 80'S. TOO SHORT DID HIS THING BACK THEN BUT HE DIDNT GET NO LOVE ON A NATIONAL LEVEL TILL JIVE CAME INTO THE PICTURE.
"I USED TO BE LOCAL TILL I SIGNED WITH JIVE, TOO SHORT THEN WENT NATION WIDE"
I WILL GIVE THE BAY THIS. THEY SEEN THE POTENTIAL AND RAN WITH IT TAKING IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL. BUT YOU GOTTA GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE. WITHOUT ONE THERE WOULDNT BE ANOTHER.

lol fuck its sad that I KNOW more about LA rappers than you do...JT The bigga figga from THE BAY put the game on...JT got 50 CENTS attention..50 Got DRE's attention...before that he was on the shelf...if it wasnt for an NY and a BAY dude he would be another HITTMAN lol...
lol i dont give a damn if its a "bad example"...thats not the point the point is...the bay hustle has influenced 90% of the industry GAME even stole his "black wall street" name from JT the bigga figga...you LA muthafuckas dont know shit about the business...i aint gonna comment on the BME being a warner company...its still independent you asshole, so whats your point lol...
