History Of Bay Area Rap Compilations

  • No other genre of music has utilized the compilation format more than hip-hop, and no other region has produced as many compilations as the Bay Area. Starting in the early 90s, independent record labels, producers, and artists found the compilation format to be a lucrative source of revenue by combining the talent of multiple artists as opposed to a traditional album by a solo artist or group. This format exploded, leading to the creation of perhaps thousands of compilations, which is a testament to the hungry Northern California fanbase where millions of fans could never seem to get enough music to satisfy their demand.

    GLP "Straight Out The Labb" is a compilation moreso than a group album and its right up in there with Herm and West Coast Bad Boyz as the trifecta during that time.
    oh and don't forget Dangerous Crew compilation!

    I worked for a record label, my family friends label in the city in the early early 2000 and we put out a bunch of Bay Area hip-hop. Keak, 3x K, even an album by Das efx.

    Also Mom & Pop record stores throughout the bay. If it wasn't for them you wouldn't even know what was up cause underground rap got no radio play. Tower records wouldn't sell any local bay shit. So shot out to Mom & Pop shops. Rock Bottom records in Pittsburg/Antioch was where I went.
