| | West Coast hip hop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Early hardcore/gangsta rap performers included Too $hort, who put out three independent albums during the 1980s before his major-label debut "Born to Mack," which was released in 1988 and went gold. | | | West-Coast Gansta rap is still alive as well, although the sound and feel of the music has changed remarkably since the G-Funk era. | | | The Game is proving to be a force that can compete with many of his East Coast counterparts in the rap business with his debut album already multi-platinum successful. |

| | The terms rap and rap music are often used to describe hip hop music; the terms rap music and hip hop music are generally synonymous, although rap music is usually not used to describe hip hop songs without vocals. | | | Rapped lyrics were already a part of soca music, for example. | | | There are performers that combine either hip hop beats or rapping with rock and roll, heavy metal, punk rock, merengue, salsa, cumbia, funk, jazz, house, taarab, reggae, highlife, mbalax and soul. |

| | Accompanied by DJ Brian "Wino" Dobbs, Coolio recorded his debut album, It Takes a Thief, which was released in 1994. | | | Many critics and listeners welcomed his friendlier, gentler approach to the gangsta-dominated West Coast sound, in spite of the fact that some of his album cuts tackled hardcore themes in a similarly profane manner. | | | Snoop rapped on The Chronic as much as Dre, and his drawled vocals were as important to the record's success as its P-Funk bass grooves. |

| | dmusic.com - Forums: Music: West Coast Rap DEAD? South & East Coast Takeover? |
| | The west coast have their share of lyrically tight mc's with Xzibit and Rass Kass running things up there with The Gift of Gab from Blackalicious being my personal favorite and Crooked I perhaps being Suge's best chance at putting his label back into respectability. | | | i think that west coast rap is dead, because the few succesful rappers from the westside are dead, with the exception off snoop dogg and dr. dre, all other west coast music sucks, southern rap is off da chain, stuff like pastor troy, oomp camp, 3 6 mafia, outkast,ludacris... | | | I'm sure both coasts have their fair share of music that's good, crappy, and inbetween. |

| | Epinions.com - The big four of early-'90s West Coast rap |
| | No doubt inspired by the 1994 movie of the same name, this is some downright psychotic rap music. | | | It's fast-hitting, hard-edged P-Funk rap with extra vocals from Lady of Rage (her best verse, I'd say) and Warren G. And that segues to... | | | There are those of you who think early-'90s West Coast rap is worthless and interchangeable. |

| | AskMen.com - Eminem |
| | His lyrics are funny (albeit disturbing), but his freestyling is a refreshing change from the current style of East Coast or West Coast rap. | | | And anytime an artist can cause the ire of two opposing factions (the religious right and leftist gay movement), we have to give credit where credit is due. | | | We like Eminem because even he doesn't take himself seriously. |
