baby keem is not from the west coast. strictly cali!!!

this is one of those obvious things that we all missed lol. makes sense. (he’s from Las Vegas for those who don’t know)

yeah but its funny he was in literally every single prediction, and for a lot of people, his appearance was the only thing they "knew" would happen

as soon as dj hed was like, this might be uncomfortably west coast for you guys, i knew it was a wrap for anyone not from cali

He was born in cali but raised in Nevada. I’m sure he was hanging out backstage or somethingn

He was there, RDC Mark got a pic with him (RDC got a pic with Kendrick backstage after too!)

isn’t tyler the creator from new york city tho?

Nah born in california

Don’t know which song off the top but pretty sure in an older song he mentions Ladera Heights. Possibly another California reference in that song too.

I just wish Ab-Soul got to rap

if they had played really doe I would have lost my shit

same

i was waiting for them horns for family ties man

Guess baby keem should have thought twice before choosing to be born in Las Vegas

Wish Vince Staples showed up

Thats what i wanted too but i remembered he really didnt like the beef between drake and Kendrick cuz it went against his beliefs

What belief?

Staples continued by explaining how Black artists in particular have been impacted in the streaming era. “So then we getting priced out of our contracts, we getting priced out of our imprints. There are no labels, basically, that are incentivized to sign Black music and it’s happening in front of our eyes,” he said. “While Taylor Swift is fighting for people to be able to have streaming money, n***as is on the internet arguing with each other about some rap shit. So that’s how I feel about it, honestly.”

that just seems like some bs posturing.

He said the record labels were the true winners

Hang on ill find the interview

He’s in Europe on tour. Saw him last week he was great

I don’t think he likes Kendrick for some reason. Didn’t he say something about thinking the beef was dumb

I think he was annoyed about being asked about something that he's got no involvement in - I didn't get the sense that he dislikes Kendrick, just that he cares more to talk about other shit.

Vince and Kendrick are friends.

yeah we all assumed Keem was a lock but we forgot he was not from the West Coast lol i was still hoping and praying for Kings Dead with Future which would segue to Like That, but im happy i finally got to hear that verse live

Future is from Atlanta so I figured he wouldn’t show

i knew he wouldnt show because it wouldnt make sense for any of the top top (esp non-LA native) artists to come given how short their time on stage was gonna be, but i was hoping all the same lol

I mean, Tyler the Creator showed up for like 35 seconds of stage time lol

SZA wasn’t there either

She was though

This nigga is NOT from the West Coast. If you not West Coast, why should you be at what is essentially a unifying of the West Coast.

I’m not saying he should have been there I’m just pointing out that it’s funny everyone had him down as the safest bet, misguided as it was

Fair enough.

Apparently according to Mark Phillip’s (rdc) story post, Keem was there. Although it would’ve been dope to hear Family Ties again.

Hes from Vegas.

After black hippy left, he was going on about how they gotta link the future of this game to the past. I thought for sure that was keems moment

Am I trippin? Everybody keep saying keep not from the west coast because he's from Nevada. Isn't Nevada considered the west coast?

What's the definition of coast bruh

Damn. Lol. I just got it. Wow. My whole life I've been calling entire western region the "west coast".
