what part of the east coast? Philly?
East Coast Lost It's Footing In the Early-Mid '90s Because Of The Lack Of Entertainment Value
- Thread starter Wacky D
- Start date
east coast was actually better off in the 2000s.
it may seem that way because the east coast had the media in its back-pocket in the '90s.
now, if youre talking 2010s, then that's some other chit. but this decade doesn't hold any weight anyway.
Because white kids were the primary consumers/buyers of their music during that time too... but you wont mention that tho..
.. that's what I thought.....I knew that right off top.. 
you sound like a Philly dude...most of these rappers aren't high on the entertainment scale, and im a fan of some and/or think some have classic works.
the ones that actually do rank high on the entertainment level, are layovers from the '80s. none of the actual early-mid '90s products that you listed, make the cut.
extra FACTS....How many time yall gonna make the same thread.
whats that supposed to mean??
philly was almost as biased as new York.
only thing that made new York even worse is that new York would be biased against other east coast cities as well.
I expect you to say that, since your entire city had NO market at that time. The only ones that made the cut were Cool C and Steady B- that didn't work out so well huh?
and right on time: you prove the point of my previous post.
and clearly, im not in here waving a flag for philly either.
altho, I will say that philly always had more style, flavor & swag than new York and it always showed in the music. but you took it there, not me. we can save this for another spinoff thread.
It means what I said... you sound like a dude from Philly; which is how my initial guess was right, that you're from Philly. Yall just have a way of coming off, like yall have a complex.whats that supposed to mean??
philly was almost as biased as new York.
only thing that made new York even worse is that new York would be biased against other east coast cities as well.
bless your lil heartnew Yorkers are the ones with the complex.
case in point, im talking about the entire east coast, but for some reason, you think im criticizing just new York.
If we talking National scale...
90 BBD, Fresh Prince Of Bel Air, Kid N Play in movies and cartoons
91 OPP, LLs Mama saying to knock Moe Dee out, Heavy Ds existence, The movie New Jack City.
92 Das Efx had everyone in that iggidy shyt to the point Ice Cube was on the tip. You had Wrecks N Effex on some rumpshaker shyt. They Reminisce Over You. The movie Juice. Those white boys had that song Jump Around.
93 Nuaghty By Nature had the anthem of the year with Hip Hop Hooray, Onyx slammin',, Redman was in his own lane, Lords Of The Underground had hits.
94 DJ Clue is starting to make noise in the DJ world.
Also...It was Puffy who groomed Jodeci.
HOW???!! LMAOFFFFF.... That inferiority complex runs deep with yall huh?? What flavor, yall have no style (I'll give Jersey and Baltimore more swag and style that I would ever give Philly).... what swag... ??!! yall cant keep up with New York.. wtf.. Hold that delusion. what music are you basing that on - The Roots?? what eras were you prevalent in? and you HAVE to say East Coast because nothing was popping off in Philly as a city for hip hop.
