17. Laid Back Slap

I was looking forward to this one, but it turned out to be kinda weak. Out of the 17 tracks, 7 are under 3 minutes long. It sounds like there wasn't much effort in the lyrics. Some of the beats do knock though but I wouldn't waste my money on like 4 good songs. Track # 14 is the best...

Juice ft. Clyde Carson- All My Life

I'm feelin this one. Haven't heard much from Juice, but he's cool based on this track.

(Video) Guce- Hey Boppa/Champion



I think Guce is kinda weak...even though that Bullys Wit Fullys 3 is probably gonna go down as a SF classic.

Eddie K- Bananas


Gurp City is a collective of folks out of San Francisco consisting MC's, DJ's, artists and so on. MC's include Z-Man (One Block Radius/Hiero/Motel Crew), Conceit (2007 YouTube On The Rise Winner/Machette Vox), Luke Sick (Sacred Hoop/Brougham/Motel Crew), TopR (MC/Lords Crew *graffiti*), the legendary Bullet Proof Space Travelers (DJ Quest, DJ Cue, DJ Marz, and Eddie Def) and lastly and most relevant to this post, Eddie K.

Born in San Francisco, Eddie K started off as a B-Boy (he did backup for KMD when they came to town, and stole their beer...). He joined the Space Travelers as the lead MC for the DJ crew, and has gone on to release several projects throughout the years.

Eddie K- Bananas


"Bananas" is the first single off his upcoming album Future Spit, which is produced by Phillip Treezy, a young producer from Switzerland. It's a sick club track that has a slappin beat.

Clyde Carson ft. The Game- Cali State Of Mind




Clyde Carson ft. The Game- Cali State Of Mind

A snippet of this song was released a while back, but now we have the full version of Clyde Carson's newest single. I was feeling "Doin That" a lot more, but fans of southern Cali's gangster rap and fans of The Game should like this one. I prefer the sound he had as part of The Team, but maybe I'm just getting old??

Ya Boy- They Know Me (Produced By Dr. Dre?)



Ya Boy- They Know Me

Doesn't really sound like a Dr. Dre beat to me. Ya Boy is official played out (to me) but I'll still check for his official album to see how it turns out.

New Keak Da Sneak Interview From Baller Status

Here's the intro to the interview...

"Yeeeeee! From Davey D, to the Living Legends crew to Hieroglyphics to Too Short, there is no doubt that San Francisco's Bay Area had long made substantial contributions to hip-hop. Set to leave the next big mark is hyphy head honcho, Keak Da Sneak.

He of the raspiest rap has just released his first record in four years on Koch and is ready to bring his wacky, faded subculture to the forefront of the mainstream. But that's not to say that the movement hasn't already made a splash -- his single "Super Hyphy" has had unbelievable success and led to Keak's appearance on MTV's strawberry flavoured "My Super Sweet Sixteen" as a guest performer for some brat's birthday. Then came the retardedly big E-40 track (and Lil Jon-produced) "Tell Me When to Go," which brought Keak's mug onto screens across the country.

Currently promoting his new album Deified, Ballerstatus chatted with Keak from New York, who explains how he hooked it up with Prodigy and Alchemist, and why hyphy will never die."

Best Bay Area Songs Of 2008?

There hasn't been very much to post lately... and I don't like going too long without a new post... so I wanna hear some opinions.

What are your Bay Area songs that came out in 2008. A few that come to mind for me are Yukmouth's "Star In The Sky", Jacka & Berner's "Keep It Street" and "SF Anthem" (don't remember if that came out this year or last).

What are some other good ones? Leave comments and I'll try to post some of them up.
