School Me on Bay Area HipHop Options

[fameONE]

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.

School me.

Well, he covered a little bit of the hyphy movement and a few of the mainstream bayslappers.

( Which is what we call our music. Slaps. Bayslaps. Cos the beat slaps, yadadadameaaan ? )

The term Yadadamean has been changed and alternated and now you'd most likely hear Yadadadig my nig or yadadabooboo or Yadadadadigmajig etc. etc. It basically means You know what i mean. You know what im saying tho.

Bayslang, might need a whoooole `nother forum so I'll get to that later, but I will attempt to explain "Giggin"
Giggin is our dance. Usually used in the same sentence as thizzin, which is when you're on E. Or as Shahin said, the look on your face when you smell some piss. Giggin and thizzin go hand in hand but a lot of times, giggin is just the essence of all baydancing. Gettin stupid dumb and hyphy. Doin` the dummy retarded and ridin the yellow bus. I cant explain it. But Ill update later with videos of my friends giggin.

One good underground Bayrapper is Andre Nickatina. He's a slapper.
Turf Talk - Most known for "Supa sick wid it" and "Turf talk is Back" ft. E-40. Hes got good giggin` beats. But it dont slap too hard.
The Jacka- Not well known, but hes okay. Not great IMO.
Messy Marv - He was big for a while, mostly for Get on my hype and Thats W'sup.
Celly Cell - Not that popular. His bayslaps are lightweight aight tho.

Mac Dre - What can I say. He's a bay classic.

Some songs that were huge were
Keak Da Sneak - Super hyphy
Mac Dre - Thizzle Dance
Mac Dre- Feelin` myself
Mac Dre - S.T.U.P.I.D
E-40 - Tell me wenna go
Federation - Go Dumb
Keak da Sneak ft' Turf talk - Scrapin
Turf Talk - Supa sick wid it
Turf talk ft. Keak da Sneak - Turf talk is back
The Federation - Hyphy
Hoodstarz - Grown Man on

I'll update later with some bayslang.
