02/01/04 | Site Changes / New Section

       Our WC2K "Features" are now split in 2 sections. We focus mainly on new, upcoming & underrated West Coast Rappers. The first section is called "On The Rise", being the place featuring already established but still new artists that have made some noise & a name for themselves by appearing on projects & shows. We feel that the following artists in this section can make an impact in West Coast Rap with their skills. Click here to go to the section. In our second section called "Whatchu Know About..." we focus on new artists that are having a problem getting their music heard, but have yet to prove their skills. If you're serious and got skills feel free to contact us and we will work something out if we feel you. Your music MUST be related to Westcoast Rap, but we're not a record label looking for new artists so no bullshit please.
