      He should've "sold out". West Coast music is very limiting and it's the reason it goes nowhere hardly. They're making music for other tough bums and they don't buy.

    This is kinda what happened to Rakim where he was about to release an album produced by Dr. Dre but Dre wanted him to rap more about gangster stuff. He disagreed and the album was dismantled.

      Thats half true. Bigs first album was party and bullsh!+. He was a conscious rapper speaking about positive things. He heard 2pac and other rappers rapping about drugs n thugs and switched too. So I disagree when you say he didn't want to. He saw 2pac had songs for the ladies so he did the same. Even snoop had songs for the ladies. He wasn't forced or made to do it.

    The industry was definitely changing around that time. The labels wanted to focus more on artists who still be street, but also make songs that they could push towards the radio, so when the album is released it will sell more. It makes sense, however this watered down hip hop because now artist who were dope lyricists, we’re now pressured to dumb down their lyrics, to reach a larger audience.

That was the Jiggy era. The west coast original sound was no longer selling like that anymore. And Cash Money Records and No Limit records also jumped on that Jiggy NY style with songs like Bling Bling and Tight Whips.

    Wow!!! This makes a lot of sense with how some of the music was changing then 🤨😠 and why it’s as HORRIBLE as it is now for the most part. These major labels and the industry as a whole is the absolute DEVIL smh. Now it’s many factors that come into the changes and why the music is bad now. But this interview says a lot. So happy MC Eiht kept it 100 and didn’t sell his soul!!!
