    LA, LA was weak. The only reason people gassed the song up is because of the song title. ? didn't even call the Dogg pound out in the song nor did they say anything relating to the east-west beef. crazy thing about it is the fact that New york, New york wasn't even a east coast diss record. It was made to pay homage to New york and showcase Kurupt's skills, the only reason Snoop and nem crushed the buildings was because the video shoot got shot up.

    I hear ya bruh, but the ? was still weak in my opinion. Plus the fact that Noreaga even admitted that Prodigy basically had to be coerced to even do the record and respond to Pac and the west after him and Havoc bragged for years that they were the only NY cats that responded when Pac, Westside connection and others were killin the east.

    Nah the OG version of la la prodigy had a verse where he ripped pac apart n by name too but they erased the verse bc cnn was nervous with it being they first single if that verse came out prodigy would have crushed pacs legacy and biggie wasn't happy wit them making that. Puffy was trying to keep the beef off wax bc he knew he was lining up the hit

    The original version of LA, LA that was over the NY, NY beat was better than NY, NY. But the version that got released as a video and appeared on CNN's album wasn't as good.

    They tore that beat to shreds.

    Never heard that ? , But I'm glad that U admitted that the released version of LA, LA was ? . Yall can try to re-write history all y'all want, but Mobb deep and the east got ? on heavily during that period and yall know it.

    Emphatic Nosign!

    The mixtape scene in New York made the entire West Coast look like a hick town with one record label. Mixtape DJs in New York were putting out mix tapes so fast that by the time an album in New York was released the material was old.

    Doo ? Tapes alone >>> Death Row's entire discography.

    People on the West Coast were so slow they didn't even have mix tapes.

    Then when you factor in S&S, Mr Cee, DJ Clue, Kid Capri, Action Pac, Silva Surfa and all the other mixtape DJs, Death Row couldn't compete.

    But that goes back to my original point that I made earlier in this thread. Locally in New York yall probably heard a lotta ? that the rest of the country didn't hear. So of course in y'all minds thats gonna make yall feel like Mobb deep and the east wrecked ? in that battle. But to the rest of the country from what we heard and saw Pac and the west killed all them ? . It's almost like in World war I when Germany thought that they were killin ? only to sign the Treaty of Versailles and be proven otherwise. lol

    Death row was heavy in places that had no culture of its own, and diddy had the whole east coast plus more if death row was so major they would still be relevant somehow, wen u look back they were just another good label with a good run like g unit, Mmg, rocafella cash money, but the thing about them is some way some how they're still relevant, diddy still doing his thing, Suge in jail pac dead snoop n Dre left, so how was a war won?

    Puffy's relevant, Bad boy ain't been ? since Mase left and Puff threw Shyne under the bus after shooting up the club in '99. Death row had a way more dominant run than any of the labels u named including Bad boy.
