West Coast Wednesday

Today’s edition of West Coast Wednesday is double. I heard this song on my ipod when I was heading to school and thought it was fitting.

After Ice Cube left NWA he went solo and did quite well. Below are two videos for some of Cube’s biggest hits, “It Was A Good Day” and “Check Yo Self.” Unknown to me until now, it looks like the videos for tracks play together like a mini movie. Dope. Enjoy.

Although Cube is on and doing other things, like movies. Both of this songs are West Coast anthems.

Below Videos for Ice Cube’s “It Was A Good Day” and “Check Yo Self”:

West Coast Wednesday

Today’s West Coast Wednesday jam is by a rapper who fell too soon, 2Pac. Personally, I am not a big fan of Pac or LA. In fact I hate nearly everything Los Angeles, but for some strange reason I am attracted to this song.

Yes, more Lil Wayne news to share. It seems like this guy is everywhere. Totally unavoidable. Anyway, over the weekend Lil Wayne released his No Ceilings mixtape to the world.

I downloaded the leaked version and have also downloaded the real version. It seems to me that Wayne was buffing because the mixtapes are extremely similar. Just a few different tracks.
