The Eastsiders is a group that Snoop Dogg promoted with the help of producers Wicho(Luis f.) and Yayo (edward). They brought out one record which was great. Since their public release they have done collaborations with Reekon and Cokes from the Wicho Production Company which were not great but have street credit since the artist from Wicho's camp are known blood gang members.Wicho made some beats for the late and great Tupac Shakur. Since Pac died Wicho has been laying low down in OC on Van Ness st making some beat for local acts. He hooked up with The Game in 2005, gave him some beat for the ghost unit mixtape.[citation needed]
