Although the West keeps it tighter than any other region when it comes to unity and collaborations, I’ma go ahead and lay down a rival division line and proclaim: this joint > “I Wanna Rock” (Interstate Trafficking Remix).

Sometimes collaboration efforts are more than just showing up and laying guest vocals for the sake of contributing (eh Quincy?) You have to be in sync with the track’s intended design to possible prevent the song from rotting in some bottomless folder of MP3′s on the desktop. And when it comes to the Bay Area rappers, their style is their lifestyle. You hear it the flows, voices and cadences. From Mistah F.A.B. to Rocky Rivera, Messy Marv to E-40–they all display a form of uniqueness while still remaining alike in format.

The homie Balance is no different (or not). Assembling a congruent bunch to revamp the lead hit for his We All In project, expect him deliver a couple more curveballs in the near future to slide his way into your playlist.
