Hopefully this week has satisfied your West Coast taste buds. Even with Kevin out of town, the team has still managed to assemble some massive sample sets, controversial top ten lists, top notch reviews, attitude introspective, and even a little surprising news regarding the Roc fam sprinkled in the mix. Was this week a success? Of course. Will it be the last? Hopefully not, because the response has been massive.
This is where you guys come in. Jot down any ideas, suggestions, favourites, dislikes, etc, and we’ll work on it for the next West Coast Week further down the road. The beauty of this site lies in its originality, a trait that the owner of the site brought with him when introducing the idea of sample sets; however, it is up to us, the KevinNottingham.com fam, to continue striving for more success; the readers are a huge part of this success.
For me, there is really nothing left to say. As for the rest of the team, we need to thank our guest contributors for delivering some heat heavily on par with our expectations. We’d like to thank anyone who spread the word about the site and hopefully you guys continue to do so. Personally, I’d like to thank my team, specifically Thomas and Fred. Thomas, who was head honcho while the big boss was out, and Fred, who is not only a resident of Cali, but a true student of the West Coast hip hop school. Of course, can’t forget Kev, who still put plenty of posts together and had a big part to play on the development of this (he allowed it, that was a big enough deal!). Be on the lookout for a possible South devoted week!
