Risky hip-hop post, making sloop the king of no reply threads on preludin. I don't know any of the names in the NorCal selection, I shall have to investigate. Which makes, like, clicking the play button sound a deeply philosophical thing to do.

Can't really vote for them scene by scene. I think The Pack and Too Short are the most interesting tracks, and that Digital Underground thing is one of the worst songs I've ever heard. From the SoCal side, Regulate & Straight Outta Compton are too ubiquitous, it's hard to judge them I've heard them that many times. Snoop sounds like a 14 year old bragging to his mates, "They're not leaving till SIX IN THE MORNING" "Woah, badass".

I think it must be a law that you have to know the words to Blow the Whistle. Here's Short Dog doing the song before a Golden State Warriors game where he doesn't even have to rap the words to the song because everyone knows them. I was going to put a Tupac song in there because he grew up in Marin City and was a member of Digital Underground. |

The SoCal selections are absolutely stellar, they'd win any geographical battle methinks.

SoCal for me. I used to hear this stuff on 1580 KDAY AM-the last great radio station and the last great radio era in Los Angeles. I like the NorCal tracks-the Humpty Dance is a particular favorite. Ya gotta love the Parliafunkadelicment Thang influence. But the SoCal tracks have an edge if only for the production/studio wizardry/ground breaking sounds of the first three tracks.

They're all Dr. Dre. I was going to put some other socal rappers who weren't produced by Dr. Dre, but they are hard to find and no one would've known them. |
