Although the term had been used to refer to the East Coast for several years previously (as a response to the claim that "the West Coast is the best coast"), since 2012 "Beast Coast" has emerged as a way to refer to the new wave of fresh, young, often experimental, underground hip-hop artists gaining prominence in New York.
Some of the most notable "Beast Coast" artists are the Pro Era collective (which includes Joey Bada$$), the Underachievers and Flatbush Zombies.

It's true, the east coast is pretty beast. Awesome cities, NYC, Boston, Philly, ATL, Miami etc. Great food, Italian, Chinese, Cuban, French, etc. The west coast only has one good state, California is cool, but Oregon and Washington? Pretty lame. Plus east coast is the original America. We strech from Maine to Florida, we beastttt at everything including sports. NY Giants Superbowl champions 0'8. NY Yankees pretty beast, and ATL Braves are awesome too. So you can have your one good state while we have like 13
West Coaster: West coast is like the best coast =!
Me: Might as well call it the California Coast, no body gives a fuck about Oregon or Washington, the only thing that california has that we don't is good weather year round, so yea EAST COAST IS THE BEAST COAST
