I need help from all you Bay kids to drop some knowledge on your region. Since I grew up on the east coast and now live in the south, I'm accustomed to hearing rap/hiphop from both areas. But the problem is, I like West coast hiphop, I just don't know much about it past its uprising in the early 90s.

So I just watched the movie Collateral, it was really dope. The ending was sort of wack however, very anti-climatic but still sort of sad. It was one of those movies where you sit there and just watch the credits like damn, it's over? Same with the movie "Gallipoli". Was it a good thing that they made a likable and thought provoking villian in Vincent (Tom Cruise)? I'm not sure. Jamie Foxx was dope as usual, but Tom Cruise definately outshined him. But this was definately one of the top thrillers of 2004, it is a shame the movie was not more recognized.
Bay Area rap music is sort of wack. Sort of. I'm not a HUGE fan, but some of it is alright. My favorite artists include Frontline, Balance, Zion I, and Mistah FAB. It's not really "lyrical", similar to Houston in that it gets a bit repetitive. It's a Kobe Bryant commercial thing, and I mean it's love or hate. I'm not really the most knowledgable or the biggest fan, Bella could probably tell you more. However, I do think that the bay area has really fallen off since 5 to 10 years ago. Collateral > Bay Area Rap peace. |
