@JoseLuisGotcha on some positivity shyt you might fukk with The GreenOva camp and Main Attrakionz, they were the face of cloud rap back in the early 2010s but really though they make trill laid back psychedelic music that's unmistakably Bay Area. They're not spitters although Mondre has a few nice verses here and there.







They got literally 50+ projects so I'll save you some trouble lol, their best work imo:

808s & dark grapes II
808s & dark grapes III
Chandelier
Bossalinis & Fooliyones

Mondre's best solo albums:

They Say I Struggle Rap
Mondre x EPMDenny - From Da Underground Railroad
Mondre x Nem270 - Rhythm & Zone

I've always wondered why nobody from the Bay has REALLY blown up in the last decade or so.. HBK had potential but they've kind of fallen off

Kamiayah is dope though, I hope she goes far
