West Coast or East Coast rap artists? Which do you like better?  

I like 2 Pac best of all the rappers and Snoop Dogg, but I don't know that West Coast rappers are neccessarily better than the East Coast rappers, I think it's just a matter of style, and voice and timing, not location.

Background story of the fights:

Arguably the most famous rap feud of recent times, the rivalry between the East Coast's Bad Boy Records and the West Coast's Death Row Records consisted of shots from Death Row toward various acts and, more specifically, Bad Boy, although the media billed it as a "rap war" between two coasts. Fans of and from both scenes denounced each other's native artists, engulfing all of rap culture.
There's a rumor that West Coast is Bloods and East Coast is Crips, which adds to the fighting.

Marion "Suge" Knight & Tupac= West Coast
Puffy Combs (now P-Diddy) & Notorious B.I.G.= East Coast
