Question: Inspired by Snickerz, Let's compare the East Coast and West Coast artists!?

Answers:
All is fair in love and hip hop!.!.!.and to be honest with you the Dre/Slick Rick comparison didn't work for me as Slick Rick hasn't produced and Dre isn't really an emcee!.!.!.Kool G!. Rap would murk Warren G in the way of rhyming but wouldn't know what to do on the boards and Coolio is no match for Biggie!.!.!.what you done was't clear or correct IMO!.!.!.
Edit: but to answer your question!.!.!. KRS would tear Pac a new one (and don't get me wrong I dig Pac but he's no GOd emcee)
50 would kill Eazy as (I guess people forget this well know fact) Eazy didn't and couldn't write ryhmes!.!.!.
Slick would weave words around Dre for tha same reason (he's a PRODUCER people! when are we gonna learn that)
Nas is a better emcee that Cube
Kool G would redrum Warren G
Jay -Z would do the same to the X man
AZ would end The Game
Big L and Short Dawg = no contest!.!.!.for short that is
Ice over Puff every day
Big over Coolio!.!.!.everyday
Pun over Snoop
and I would consider it a draw between N!.W!.A and De La so to do the tally for you!.!.!.Can I get a drum roll please!.!.!.!.

Even though I'm East Coast all the way, you kinda cheated with how you set these up so that you could systematically knock out certain west coasters to make the east coast's superior skills be obvious!. That said, East Coast is way better!.!.!.hahaha and if your this east coast biased check out Tim Dog he has a song called F*** Compton thats a diss on NWA thats hilarious!.!.!.actually go for the video its even better he has a high top fadeWww@Enter-QA@Com
And how did you come up with this "logical" way to pair up these artists with each other!? In Hip Hop, it's not about which region is better or not!. It's about the INDIVIDUAL ARTIST!. Each region has their good artists and sh*tty artists!.
I'm a Left-Coaster that enjoys Nas, Cool Breeze, Paul Wall, Common, Mac Dre and any other artist that sounds good to my ears!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I honestly think Justice & Snicker should join the Illuminatti!. You two would make them extremely proud with this B!.S!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
I don't know why people get caught up comparing everything all the time!.
West Coast hip-hop and East Coast hip-hop have different styles and that's why you shouldn't compare them!.!.They are basically different genres to me, that's why you can have an album like The Chronic up there with Ready to Die!.!.they are extremely different albums but it's about their reception by their respective audiences at the end of the day!.
It's unfair to say "That West Coast album has sh*tty lyrics, that's not worthy of the lyricism the East Coast has"!.!. because the styles are different!.!.
EDIT: No, I'm just wondering why people compare music from these two places where styles are very different!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Ok You want to compare artists but why group them as you do maybe you need to rearrange them a bit:
KRS-One vs Tupac Maybe it should be Pac Vs!. Nas or Pac Vs!. Jay) Eitherway Pac is one of the greatest ever while KRS-One is a pioneer he is not as appealing to the same broad audience as Pac!. Pac could legitimatley take down Jay or Nas!.
50 Cent vs Eazy-E (This is a good pairing but Eazy is better then 50!. His songs were about real issues and contained interesting wordplay!. While he didn't write them we all know 50 doesn't write all of his lyrics either!. Eazy also put the West Coast on the map and founded one of the most influential hip hop groups in history with NWA and launched the careers of Dr!. Dre, Ice Cube and others!. These guys launched the careers of: The game, Eminem, Xzibit, Snoop, Tha Dogg Pound, Nate Dogg, Lynch Mobb, W!.C!. and Mack 10 among others!.
Slick Rick vs Snoop Dogg, is a better pairing since they are similar!. I'd say it's a wash but Snoop has outsold Rick and continues to be a influential force in hip-hop!.
Nas vs Ice Cube!. Is this one fair!? Are Nas and Cube similar!? Why pair them!? Cube is great but not on the same level as Nas!.
Kool G Rap vs Warren G Why bring Warren G into this!? He made one album that was worth listening to!. He was not a Pioneer!. If we are shuffling Dre crushes Kool G!. Xzibit is at least similar!.
Jay-Z vs Xzibit!. Not at all fair!. Maybe Jay goes up against Snoop or Dre!. Jay probably wins though!.
AZ vs The Game!. Why does AZ win!? The Game is new and fresh and bringing the West Back!. did AZ break any ground do anything worth talking about 10 years later!? NOPE!.
Big L vs Too Short!. NO RAPPER COMPARES TO TOO SHORT!. The guy has made records like you make dinner!. Always grinding and being relevant!. the guy fouded the Bay Area and was influential to Spice One, Tupac, Digital Underground, E-40 and so many others!. Big L is famous for what!? dying!? Short wins!.
Puff Daddy vs Ice-T !?!?!?!? Diddy Vs!. Dre is about the same comparision of Diddy Vs Eazy!. Diddy built a powerful East Coast label launched the careers of many artists similarly to Dre and even Eazy!. Diddy musically doesn't turn the knobs or write his own S**T so he's an executive type!. Ice-T at least wrote his own lyrics for that he wins!. Diddy Vs!. Dre is a wash!.
Biggie vs Coolio !?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? How does MF Coolio compare to Big!? Big is the best and beats nearly everyone!. To the East he is as Pac is to the West!.
Big Pun vs Snoop Dogg!. Possibly an interesting face off!. Snoop howeveron the West is bigger then Pun!. Maybe we should send E-40 after Pun!. Maybe Xzibit or Warren G or Mack 10 or who cares!.
De La Soul vs N!.W!.A !?!? NWA is far more important to hip hop then De La Soul!. Wu Tang Vs!. NWA makes more sense and is much more similar!. De La Soul is maybe our version of West Side Connection or Digital Underground!.
I'll say this overall there are far more acts coming out of NY then the West Coast!. That's fine the majority of music comes out of the east!. The West is a unique place where not everything translates out to the east coast!. Heck our projects are flat, have palm trees and it never rains or snows!. Where would you rather live!?Www@Enter-QA@Com
