San Diego Rap Goin Down??

[Supa SAV'D OUTT]

In My opinion i think alot of SD rappers lost that edge they shit aint pumpin like it was 2 yrs ago, what happened?? 4real im from tha bay and my nigga put me on alot of shit and i been fuckin wit daygo shit since 02'. and i thought niggaz out here were gonna be more out there now, now its real slow, couple of years ago u had the new west 2 comp, lil c.s ghetto classics, hound foundation, handgunners all of em was bangin, cricet beats and cds were bangin and ecay uno had probably one of the tighest albums i EVER heard Period! what happen the only one i hear is mitch right now and a few others like bigg june, what do yall think am i wrong or what ya'll think put me on to whats new cuz i dont see right now

 

[Raider Rick]

i think SD rap is on the come up.

 

[Gas One]

4real im from tha bay

imo that might be your downfall

but uhhhhhhhhhh

theres alot of good music you might not have heard it tho, and i aint bout to name a buncha shit ill let someone else do it

start with cee wees mixtape, if you dont like that you probably smoke rocks

and big junes mixtape was good.
just to name two.

maybe the fact your not originally from diego you aint really up on shit out here...or maybe you dont know everything that has dropped...

and to put a bug in your ear....keep in mind music is dated often...so alot of the shit you hear coming out right now might have been made in the time frame you considered san diego "on the come up"...

san diego is the only rap scene where people act like 40 rappers have to drop simotaneously or right after another to make it a city noticed for rap...fools have jobs, children, lives...some people are gonna take hiatus's some people will keep pushin...i say be happy with the fact SD has spitters and cop it when it DOES drop.

fools are on that old hip hop clock..you know...3-5 years before every album..

yeah i dont think the other dude really understood what u were tryin to say

 

[Gas One]

nah i understood what dude was trying to say, but theres alot of shit that dropped this year.

more so than last year.

 

[jaY_eF_eS 1904]

im hoping the " slow down " is because cats makin' sure what they push is good Quality ... but yea... for awhile it seemed flooded with new shit .. but it's all g . Dago got e'body waitin'...

 

[Gas One]

instead of the new west 2 compilation you had southeast streets, instead of lil cs ghetto classics you had the mob kingz album, instead of handgunner you had urban survival syndrome...

on top of ecay dropping shit, lc janet dropping two mixtapes, cee wee dropping, googie monsta dropping, bayloc dropping, cuthroat dropping an album, the real brothers album, bossman hogg, gangsta gold, blue sticc, big june bieng back in the game, young sau, even battle loco dago banging in 2006... i could go on forever..wheres this supposed slump? i think even steve vicious had a e40 track this year, correct me if im wrong.....2006 was a really enterprising year for san diego rappers. even got a few san diego rappers outta jail in 2006. we also got some real shine...

was there a grimmie show on TV 3-4 years ago?
was rap or die around in your heyday?

i lived here all my life, so i can speak on the change our city has had, musically. outsiders not so much.

only thing really missing is jayo, orko, and cricet.
but overall, i think 2006 has had quite a few really good albums, and its comparable to a few years ago.

that said, id rather have good albums far apart then a bunch of shitty mixtape material in a short period..


on top of all that, the chargers are fucking up the NFL this year.

 

[Lordbyron]

only thing really missing is jayo, orko,

Don't know where Bullet Loco's been... I'm waiting on his new shit my damn self... but Orko's been putting out those NMS album's... he dropped 'Imperial Letters of Protection' earlier this year... he's always hustling... always...

 

[HEAVYMETALGANGSTER]

[Gas One]

Don't know where Bullet Loco's been... I'm waiting on his new shit my damn self... but Orko's been putting out those NMS album's... he dropped 'Imperial Letters of Protection' earlier this year... he's always hustling... always...

First off homey, I don't think you meant Ghetto Classics, because that came out in '99, and Dollars & Sins in '01, Ghetto World Sdtrk 03, Ghetto World dvd '04, Mob Kingz '05. Do you have the Mob Kingz cd "The Hardest Shit Out". If not, that's the one you need to grab. I only have 38 cd's left. It's one of the hardest cd's to come out the city imo. If you want to hear some of the songs go to myspace at www.myspace.com/csgrind . I only have one Mob Kingz song up now, but if you hit me on the email, and you want to hear more songs, I'll put some up.

But I do agree with you about SD music slowing down a little bit. It's some new cd's out right now though. I think one of the reasons it has slowed down is because people see how hard it is. A lot of people before they put out their cd, think they're going to blow up when "their" cd comes out, and everybody before them wasn't doin' what "they" are going to do. So I think a lot of people put out their cd's, don't hustle, and don't even sell 1000 cd's, because believe it or not 1000 cd's isn't easy to sell. A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE TOOK LOSSES, and didn't make any profit, so therefore they might release one maybe two cd's, and that's it. That's how you can tell who's really makin' money, based how many releases they have. We have 5 releases (4 cd's and a dvd) to our credit. But that's the bottom line, I think everybody see's how hard it is in this game, and ain't nobody payin' their bills with this rap shit. Mostly everybody rappin' ain't makin' money at it. Very few people are, and I'm talkin' about industry wide. And like homey said, niggaz have bills, kids, families, responsibilites, jobs etc. But we're still tryin' homey, so don't give up on us. Niggaz might fall back a little bit, but we haven't quit. Thanks for the support though homey.

It was never up! We don't have one gold or platinum artist. But what he was sayin', was that at one point we had a lot of albums comin' out, and now it has slowed down. We know we've never been "up".

[ElcajonblvdBoss]

rap music as a hole seems to be going down

 

[Gas One]

why the fuck does platinum records matter?

niggas aint thinkin out of the scope...if 5-10 rappers can affect close to as many people as a platinum rapper, what the fuck is platinum?

were talking about noticability and not records sold...
fuck who makes money, its about the city..
and i feel like san diego is finally becoming noticed in the game.

thats new for 2006, to me.

you might not make shit off your album.... but if 80,000 people download it off the internet and hear you reppin hard for SD....you doin' good in my book.

 

[Its Premo]

dago has much heat

NO OFFENSE TO DAYGO, BUT WHEN WAS IT UP? IS MITCHY SLICK FROM SAN DIEGO?

Dago may not have been "up" as far as platinum sellin artists, but they damn sure got the hardest,tightest shit comin outta Cali. All I've purchased in the past 3 years as far as rap is Daygo artists. Cricet,Ecay Uno,Lil CS,Sick Beav,Damu, Mitchy Slick and so on.
