I'm trying to make a compilation of 90's west coast rap.
Here's what I have so far:

2Pac - California Love , -I Get Around
Dr. Dre - Nothing but a G'Thang, - The Next Episode
Ice Cube - It Was a Good Day
Luniz - I Got Five on It
TWDY - Player's Holiday
Shade Sheist - Where I Wanna Be
Bone Thugs N Harmony - Crossroads
Westside Connection - 3 Time Felons
Snoop Dogg - Ain't No Fun
TQ - Westside

et al.

Any other suggestions?
Thanks!

Del - Dr. Bombay
Any Digital Underground

oh, and upgrade from "I Got Five on It" to the remix version!


slight nitpicky corrections: Mix-a-lot is from Seattle (but he still qualifies ), Bone is from Cleveland, and MC Breed is from Michigan - although I suppose Breed's sound is that West Coast GFunk style

phatboy

boy, you needs some Biggie in dat mix, yo!

Dan G

The West Coast Rap All-Stars - "We're All In The Same Gang"

Mondo Kane

Yeah this tune's a Cali classic. You can still hear it played on stations in the wee hours of the morning.

Rypro 525

wasn't biggie an east coast rapper?

Tarantino

Yes...I half think he was joking.

= J

Hud

Although Easy E. gave Bone Thugs their start, they were from Cleveland.

How about Mac 10, WC & the Maad Circle, MC Ren, Dru Down, E-40, Coolio, Ice-T...

onewierdo

E-40 : Slurricane (not sure if west coast but worth entering)
Eleven Five : Garcia vegas
Del tha funkee homosapian : if you must - Mista dobolina
RBL Posse : Bammer Weed
Warren G : Regulate
Xzibit : Alkoholic
NWA : F the police - staight outta compton
Digital Underground : Same song - Freaks of the Industry

kurupt

The Dove Shack - Summertime In The LBC (If you can't find their cd, the track is also on The Show Soundtrack).

The Alkoholiks - Only When I'm Drunk, Last Call, Daaamn!, Let It Out

Above The Law - anything off their first album, Black Superman...

I second the upgrade from the album version of I've Got 5 On It to the remix

King Tee - Act A Fool

Anything off the Dogg Food album...

So many choices, so little space

Mondo Kane

So how many remixes was there to this? I remember being pissed off buying the album when the single hardly sounded nothing like the memorable cut that was always playing on the radio. And then there was that other remix that had Spice 1,DU,and Richie Rich.

Good call on Dove Shack. "Smoke Out" is another good track to check out.

Thanks everybody, awesome suggestions. I might have to make a couple cd's now.

Daryl

that's the one I was referring to. w/E40, Shock G, Dru Down, Richie Rich, Spice 1

I'm kicking myself for forgetting Above The Law and RBL Posse. "V.S.O.P." by ATL and "Sort of like a Psycho" by RBL are two of my all-time favorites

Dan G

Blackalicious - "Alphabet Aerobics"
Jurassic 5 - "Jayou"
Ugly Duckling - "Everybody C'mon"
Souls of Mischief - "93 'til Infinity"
Del - "Mistadobolina"
Aceyalone - "Annalillia?"
Latyrx - "Lady Don't Tek No"
