Priority Records' West Side compilation series was essential documentation of LA's hip-hop underground, and this 1996 sequel captures a specific moment in regional rap culture. This double album pulls together artists and deep cuts that showcase the breadth beyond mainstream charts. You'll find production ranging from G-funk influenced tracks to harder-edged, sample-based beats. The energy is raw and unpolished, featuring regional artists working at the grassroots level with serious production behind them. Each release in the series became a valuable document of regional hip-hop identity. Two records of genuine underground West Coast sound from an era when that distinction still meant something significant.
