Bay Area Rap Roster

Been meaning to post this one for some time now. With the hyphy explosion showing no sign of slowing down, it's a good moment to get acquainted with some of the major players in the Bay Area scene. Check out this article in XXL Magazine that rattles off quick bios (with audio) of some of the hottest rappers in the yay, even checking a couple of djs and producers at the end of their list. It's by no means exhaustive, but a good place to start if you're curious who's who. Up above is a photo of Keak Da Sneak, and if you're going to talk about hyphy, you've got to know Keak because after all, that's his word (and check out his song Super Hyphy using XXL Magazine's built-in Flash player).
