... the West Coast/California in the last 2 years as a collective both mainstream and independent have put out the best quality studio albums across the USA?
And impressively they don't try to ape the sound of other regions/coasts; their music is still primarily inspired by Funk
Snoop
TDE/Black Hippy
E-40
MadLIB
Georgia Anne Muldrow
Warren G
J*Davey
The Game
DJ Quik
Problem
Fashawn
TY Dolla $ign
Vince Staples
Adrian Younge
and of course Dr. Dre
I've listened to music released by the listed artistes between 2015-16...
Just got through YG's Still Brazy album... concise and dope

Also you forgot Terrace Martin. The sound has been influenced by Dilla as well of late with that dusty jazz work mixed in with the funk... -

Cooked up a classic for Kendrick with TPAB... I knew I was omitting names. Powerful roster in that state. -
That garbage ass circus music ?

Don't forget Dom Kennedy and Nip Hussle and Casey Veggies, I've felt the same way too though, West Coast had the game on smash for a minute now, staying true to their sound too.
-
I agree....great music coming out of the West the past couple of years.

Definitely. West coast rappers still carry their own sound in hip hop.

Except for those couple of years after Pac died when the Westcoast was quiet as a church mouse. -
Lol I stand corrected
-
I think it's because the 1st time I heard of him was on that song with Common.I forgot he was a west coast dude. -
