Tuhia he tomokanga mo tenei whitianga - Ko te East Coast<unk>West Coast hip hop whakataetae he riri i waenga i nga kaitoi me nga kaiwhaiwhai o te East Coast hip hop me te West Coast hip hop whakaaturanga i te United States, ina koa mai i te waenganui o te 1990s. Ko nga waahi nui o te riri ko te kaiwaiata East Coast The Notorious B.I.G. me tana tapanga New York, Bad Boy Records, me te kaiwaiata West Coast Tupac Shakur me tana tapanga LA-based Death Row Records. I patua rāua e rua i roto i ngā pupuhi taraiwa. Ko Orlando Anderson, e mōhiotia ana ko Ko Baby Lane, kua whakawakia mo te kohuru
o Shakur, engari i patua ia i te puna o 1998. Ko te tangata e whai mana ana ki te kohuru o The Notorious B.I.G. e noho ana hei tangata kore.
