West Coast Vaccine is the powerful follow up to Turf Talk The Street Novelist and Turf Talk Brings The Hood Colabilation. Turf Talk is unique with his California connections representing all areas from the gangsta life of Los Angeles all the way to the Bay Area hip hop scene.

In his late teens, Turf Talk reconnected with his roots moving back to his hometown of Vallejo. He has taken his experiences and created a style to appeal to all of California and beyond. Turf Talks cousin and mentor E-40, The Ambassador of The Bay Area, is a Vallejo hip hop pioneer who has spent more than a decade perfecting his own idiosyncratic version of California Gangsta Rap. E-40 is signed with Lil Jon and BME Recordings, and has taken his Platinum status to the next level over the last year. He still owns and runs his independent label Sick Wid It Records and 2007 will be the biggest year yet releasing albums from Turf Talk, Droop-E, Bay Bridges, The Mossie, The D.B.’Z, Nump and many more. Turf Talks ‘West Coast Vaccine (The Cure)’ features appearances by hip hop and rap pioneers and notables such as E-40, Too $hort, Yukmouth, Freeway, B-Legit & newcomers Killer Kees and Young Phenom ‘the gangsta God’.
