@John Dough I'm from Baltimore and I recall when Rickey Smiley morning show premiered and they had to stop saying it because the kids in my city was going crazy in school with the phrase deez nuts 🙃 😅 😳 🤪
As you did Wu Forever last week it might be interesting to hear this version of Lil Ghetto Boys, because both songs use the same voice sample on the hook. Both songs sounds completely different from one another but so dope anyway
Whatever you do DO NOT look to the Straight Outta Compton movie for accurate NWA history.. Dr. Dre made himself out to look like a super hero and Eazy like a chump..instead read the book Original Gangstas by Ben Westhoff. Also check out Eazy-E “real muthaphukkin Gz”.. that track alone got a narrow minded metal head like my 14 year old self into the world of hip hop back in ‘94🤘🏼
Hey Frodo, great reaction! You are right about the lyrics on this album (and most of the West Coast albums, not all of course), they are more straight forward and often easier to understand, because most MC's from the west don't use many metaphors and don't have such a big vocabulary. But the flows are really special and unique.
The chronic is one of my all time favourite albums. When it dropped it became an instant classic. It was on repeat in my bedroom..in my then girlfriends car..in my friends house.. I took the shit everywhere lol.
True, until Snoop's doggy style came out. I remember it being delayed, so for 6 months, every sigle day i was annoying the record store guy, asking when it would finally drop.
charli baltimore ft ghostface-stand up (ghost and a sick female rapper pure banter) Deadly Venoms - venow everywhere it's a female wutang group. Also people are saying westcoadt is layed back in lyrics, which is'nt exactly true. This is g-funk a subgenre of westcoat hiphop and there are lyrical g funk artist. Aside from that westcoat hiphop has lyrical groups.
Hey Frodo, i dont know who requested you to skip the origin of nwa albums and ice cube albums to straight to the chronic album, I guess they don't care about origins, because they did same thing to wu tang too , they wanted you to skip all the solo albums to go straight to supreme clientele , it like skipping the whole marvel solo movies and go straight to endgame, see you got to listen to NWA first album then the second album( that their first diss to ice cube) ice cube diss nwa on his second album Death Certificate, after that then the Chronic came out , and eazy e came out with a diss album toward Dr Dre and them, I just don't want you to miss a thing
That’s his boy ‘Wu Tang-Batman’ giving him all these suggestions. But I agree with you that he should progress properly with these albums and sub-genres of Hip Hop.
I do intend to do them all. I get one album a week. Im sure I can get NWA and others in. Kinda put it all together. Just gives me more fuel for the fire. I look forward to doing all these albums. Even if out of order. I will get them in
@@John__Dough So you think that ALL the songs and albums that Frodo reacts to are MY suggestions? Have I made suggestions and recommendations?..sure, as have many others in the community. But to say that I'm giving frodo "ALL" the suggestions!! Not accurate at all. Of course it would make sense to do things a certain way..for example (west coast) Ice t..Too short...nwa..dre..snoop etc. And same for east coast. I recommended frodo do old school like..grandmaster flash..melle mel..slick rick..Rakim..run dmc..krs one (again as did many others) to see where things started. It makes total sense to do things chronologically...but it's not my channel, and frodo is going to do things how he wants to do them.. Period. All the reactions frodo does are the communities suggestions.. some of them are mine yes. But 100% not all
Another bonus b-side from this album is the lyrical posse cut "Puffin' on Blunts and Drankin' Tanqueray" featuring Lady of Rage, Daz & Kurupt of Tha Dogg Pound
I really enjoy this channel. I get to re listen to some of my favorite albums of all time an get a fresh perspective on them an you are a really likeable cool dude.
8:55 NWA’s manager wasn’t giving Ice Cube his share of royalties so he left. Dr. Dre left for the same reason. Jerry Heller was keeping royalties from them while he and Easy E reaped the benefits of the work of the group. With some help from Suge Knight Dre was able to force his way out of his record deal with NWA and would go on to form Death Row, but Easy made it to where he and later his estate still got a cut of Dre’s royalties for all his work up until the late 90s. He would then go on to record Dre Day and the rest is history.
I think Frodo should do a diss day once a week, should start with benzino song dissing Eminem , next week he react to Eminem diss track to benzino, and so on, then next he'll do ll cool j vs canibus , krs one vs mc Shan or jay z vs nas....yeah somebody tell Frodo that
Frodo if you want to hear real lyrical West Coast Hip Hop you need to react to albums from The Souls of Mischief: 93 Till Infinity Del The Funky Homosapien: No Need For Alarm Tha Alkaholiks: 21 And Over, and Coast II Coast, The Pharcyde: Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde Ras Kass: Soul On Ice, and Rassassination Murs: Murs 3:16 The 9th Edition, Murray's Revenge The Coup: Kill My Landlord, Genocide & Juice, Steal This Album
Can't wait for the maiden reaction. Can actually experience you reacting to YOUR favourite band, which will be awesome to witness 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Understandably, you didn't feel the song "The Day Niggas Took Over." It is nonetheless relevant to the times of more recent days. Some of us lived through and come from such background. However, I believe that song resonates with people worldwide. Not to all.
Before I finish the video I wanted to say that, this album is a T10 rap album of all time for me. The album was HUGE with its hits. Also, you have to remember this was Dre's first album after leaving NWA or if you will, NWA breaking up. The sound production some people are still trying to catch up to. Also, with some of the videos they really got lowriders out to the masses where across the country people wanted to get those 64 Impalas sitting on wires and hydraulics LOL.
Snoop Doggy Dogg "Doggystyle" should follow this. That album is far more lyrical than this album. What made this album a classic is the sonics and sounds that made it, at that time, one of a kind, as stated so by Interscope/Death Row founder Jimmy Iovine in a recent documentary about Dr Dre/NWA
This whole album is just it sonically lol, also Doggystyle to me you can tell Dre produced them back to back because to me they have the same kinda unique sound.
Can u do EPMD album they got Strictly Business, Business as usual, Business never personal, Back to business and a couple others with the business name in it
🇬🇺grew up w Maiden since Paul Diono. That said I could never dig anything after Aces High. Just me Thats wen I gravitated to rap. So I know every Maiden song up to aces high and Chronic, Doggy Style,Diggable Planets, Pharcyde,36 Chambers , Ready to Die. ect. I can appreciate wat aeach diff genre of music offers. So You nI are from the same cloth. So excited to watch ur genuine journey. Hold on tight its ginna be a bad -ass ride. Especially w The Chronic. Perfect intro👏🏽👏🏽🇺🇸🇬🇺🏝
WOW, ONE OF MY SUGGESTIONS IS GETTING REACTED TO. SALUTE TO U Frodo_ Tbaggins_ GREAT IDEA FOR REACTING TO ALL THE ALBUMS THAT WERE VOTED ON, KEEP ROCKIN'!🤘🏾
Don’t think you noticed, but “Little Ghetto boy” is using the same sample as Wu-tangs “the Ghetto” on Wu-tang forever. Hope you’re doing Bobby Digital in stereo 1997 or Immortal technique revolution part 2 next!
The Defiant Ones documentary is a good place to hear what happened. It's been a while since I've seen it... Dr. Dre side of how it went down. Pretty sure Ice Cube also in it. When The Chronic came out, nobody was talking to anybody and everyone was shit talking.
Lady of rage is the first lady and original death row inmate also part of the DPGC (Dogg Pound gangsta Crips) which consists of snoops crew (Daz ,kurupt,rbx,Nate Dogg, eastsidaz and a bunch more) Kurupt is considered one of the greatest lyricists from the west coast. Kurupt and Daz are "That Dogg Pound"
Frodo, it kind of depends on the set up with groups vs. individual artists. In NWA's case the only solo members album at the time they were NWA was Easy E but everyone appears on the albums amongst the group. When they broke up there were some guest appearances on each's own solo albums but it wasn't like a Wu Tang Clan kind of thing. There have been a lot of duos though Chuck D and Flavor Flav as part of Public Enemy; Ad Rock, Mike D, and MCA as parts of the Beastie Boys; Andre 3000 and Big Boi of Outkast; MC Serch and Pete Nice of 3rd Bass; Eric and Parish from EPMD. Someone can correct me cause I am iffy on all the details but what classification would Slaughterhouse be with Eminem and his Detroit buddies? Or Nelly and his St. Lunatics?
Lil Ghetto Boy my fav track on this!🔥🔥🔥🔥 Reminds me of growin up in tha hoodz of Cali back in the early 90's! You should react to CMW(Compton's Most Wanted) album, "Music to Driveby". Ablum straight FIRE!
My top 5: 1. Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang 2. Deeez Nuuuts 3. Lil' Ghetto Boy 4. Lyrical Gangbang 5. Let Me Ride You need the P-Funk. You needs to get funked up.
Someone probably already explained, but Eazy E set up NWA with Jerry Heller, but it seems they took most of the money for themselves, so Ice Cube left, and NWA (Eazy E, Dr Dre, Mc Ren and Yella) called him a 'Benedict Arnold', so Cube responded with the diss track "No Vaseline", which you should DEFINITELY add to your reaction list. It was a hard diss, causing a mad media reaction and lawsuits because Cube mentioned Jerry's Jewish heritage a few times. Anyway, eventually Dre also left, set up Death Row and dissed Eazy E with "Fuck Wit Dre Day", to which Eazy E responded with "Real Muthaphuckkin G's". Both Eazy and Dre also made peace with Cube, and Dre and Cube done a track together in Death Row's heyday with "Natural Born Killaz". In the NWA film, it showed Dre and Eazy making peace, and Eazy seeing through Jerry's scandalous ways, but this is disputed. When Eazy fell into a coma just before he died of AIDS, however, Dre did visit him in the hospital, and after his death Dre, Cube, NWA members and Snoop has honoured Eazy E's name and legacy.
Please do your next video on 2pac’s classic album me against the world 1995 because his most accomplished and important by capturing just how suffocated he felt at every level of American life he created a damning indictment of the country that hated him back but it was when he found the sound and voice that we remember him for when he transformed gangsta rap into a vehicle of the blues, and when he ascended to culture omnipresent.
Now you have to hear mutha fuckin g's from eazy e. That is where eazy put this beef to bed. Make sure to do the uncensored video. There are visuals in there you will need for full effect.
Lol you had it good with 10 channels as basic, we only had 4 in the UK, didn't get 5 channels until the mid-90s 🤣🤣🤣 You had to pay for Sky TV or cable. We didn't get more free channels until they rolled out freeview digital TV. Big up my bro, I'm still watching the reaction, up to Lyrical Gangbang.
Snoop was banned from Miami for this song suge was shot in Miami by a woman cause of dre day song... snoop ended up after 2000 on a Khaled song and video abs had to were a number 1 Miami hurricane jersey
Great reaction Frodo, loved it! And yeah, most rappers have used that style where they split a word in two so that it still rhymes with the previous line, and then the rest of the word starts the next line. I don't think it has a specific name though. If I can have a request though, might it be a classic House of Pain song? Who's the man - th-cam.com/video/4DNTgSqdwPU/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=TommyBoy Or maybe some classic Cypress Hill - I aint going out like that - th-cam.com/video/q7p-ihYOG5s/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=CypressHillVEVO Both classic bassline heavy songs that i think you'd love. The videos are actually worth watching too, not all butchered up versions.
when west coast rap, dre and snoop particulary, came out, a lot of hip hop fans in NYC didnt really like it.. sounded good. but lyrically it was kinda simple.. the rest of the USA loved it though, but here in NYC not really that much..
YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THE DISS VIDEOS BETWEEN DR. DRE AND EAZY-E. React to Dr. Day first then react to Eazy-E Real Compton City G's. You will understand the dissing better when looking at these music videos.
lol you said it doesnt seem like rap.. they are rapping.. but especially snoop, he kinda incorporated a more singy flowy style of rapping.. its cool.. but for those of us that prefer heavy lyrical content, we go elswhere.. still a dope album though. but again, i prefer wu tang, boot camp, nas, big Pun etc etc..

@@brand_Q and west coast is more melodic.
You the mvp
thank you so much for doing this
That is snoop style, smooth silky flow and that's what makes him special and one of a kind
Daz Dillinger is snoops cousin and 1 half of "Tha Dogg Pound" which is a legendary West coast rap group
Everyone is snoops cousin
It’s funny how Frodo thought his friends invented the ‘Deez Nuts’ game. Then a couple seconds later realized it was created from this album. Lol.
He didn't say he invented it
@John Dough I'm from Baltimore and I recall when Rickey Smiley morning show premiered and they had to stop saying it because the kids in my city was going crazy in school with the phrase deez nuts 🙃 😅 😳 🤪
My guy! This is the peak of west coast gangsta rap! Deep bass, hard funk samples, aggressive violent lyrics, and dope synth. This is the one
As you did Wu Forever last week it might be interesting to hear this version of Lil Ghetto Boys, because both songs use the same voice sample on the hook. Both songs sounds completely different from one another but so dope anyway
I was thinking that listening to the Wu version last week
As a metal head you would LOVE Public Enemy's "It takes a nation of millions to hold us back" album.
Pretty much anything by Public Enemy is worth a listen. Chuck D gave me my early political education.
channel zero - angel of death sample
AAALLLL public enemy albums not just one
Like from Slayer? I know the did Anthrax crossover. I did that one. But if they have a Slayer sample I might have to look into that.
Fear of a Black Planet Album would be dope too!
Dre is first a producer as opposed to a rhymer. His beats are top notch and smooth! His music is made for cruisin'!
This is a Dr. Dre masterpiece, but I think Doggy Style is even better!
💯
@Smooth Operator it’s definitely the only Snoop album that I like. Snoop was at his best with Dre for sure.
@Ish Mel The Incel The last meal is great too
Watch "straight outta compton". It'll give the cliff notes of what happened.
That is a work of fiction
Wack ass movie
Whatever you do DO NOT look to the Straight Outta Compton movie for accurate NWA history.. Dr. Dre made himself out to look like a super hero and Eazy like a chump..instead read the book Original Gangstas by Ben Westhoff.
Also check out Eazy-E “real muthaphukkin Gz”.. that track alone got a narrow minded metal head like my 14 year old self into the world of hip hop back in ‘94🤘🏼
We weren't there, so we can't judge on the movie
It Takes A Nation To Hold Us Back and Fear Of A Black Planet, both by Public Enemy, are classics and must reactions.
Hey Frodo, great reaction!
You are right about the lyrics on this album (and most of the West Coast albums, not all of course), they are more straight forward and often easier to understand, because most MC's from the west don't use many metaphors and don't have such a big vocabulary.

It was on repeat in my bedroom..in my then girlfriends car..in my friends house..
I took the shit everywhere lol.
Facts!! On Cassette 📻
@@whacksta
You know it was on cassette 🤣
True, until Snoop's doggy style came out. I remember it being delayed, so for 6 months, every sigle day i was annoying the record store guy, asking when it would finally drop.
@@AgentLemmon
Both albums were game changers.
Went everywhere in my Walkman
charli baltimore ft ghostface-stand

Deadly Venoms - venow everywhere it's a female wutang group.
Also people are saying westcoadt is layed back in lyrics, which is'nt exactly true. This is g-funk a subgenre of westcoat hiphop and there are lyrical g funk artist. Aside from that westcoat hiphop has lyrical groups.
You gotta put ‘Snoop Dogg - Doggy Style’ on the poll Frodo!
Imo Let me Ride is one of the best rap tracks to ever be produced. The Beat is literally out of this world
You really should do Madvillainy, it's a collab between MF DOOM and Madlib, if you like the rhymes and wordplay I think you'd really like it
Hey Frodo, i dont know who requested you to skip the origin of nwa albums and ice cube albums to straight to the chronic album, I guess they don't care about origins, because they did same thing to wu tang too , they wanted you to skip all the solo albums to go straight to supreme clientele , it like skipping the whole marvel solo movies and go straight to endgame, see you got to listen to NWA first album then the second album( that their first diss to ice cube) ice cube diss nwa on his second album Death Certificate, after that then the Chronic came out , and eazy e came out with a diss album toward Dr Dre and them, I just don't want you to miss a thing

Not accurate at all.
Of course it would make sense to do things a certain way..for example (west coast)
Ice t..Too short...nwa..dre..snoop etc.
And same for east coast.
I recommended frodo do old school like..grandmaster flash..melle mel..slick rick..Rakim..run dmc..krs one (again as did many others) to see where things started.
It makes total sense to do things chronologically...but it's not my channel, and frodo is going to do things how he wants to do them.. Period.

Another bonus b-side from this album is the lyrical posse cut "Puffin' on Blunts and Drankin' Tanqueray" featuring Lady of Rage, Daz & Kurupt of Tha Dogg Pound
THIS SONG IS SO AMAZING
I really enjoy this channel. I get to re listen to some of my favorite albums of all time an get a fresh perspective on them an you are a really likeable cool dude.

If you're reacting to this album, please please react to Eazy E's Real Muthaphuckkin G's track where he slaughtered Dre and Snoop
Top 5 hardest diss tracks ever!
Yes with Ether, 2nd round KO, No Vaseline, The Bridge is Over
@@ZeeZeeFaa I'd say "hit em up", ether, dj quik "safe n sound", no vasoline.
@@ZeeZeeFaa id even throw some eminem diss songs up there actually... he's killed careers...lol

KING OF HOOKS NATE DOGG!! 👑
Frodo if you want to hear real lyrical West Coast Hip Hop you need to react to albums from
The Souls of Mischief: 93 Till Infinity
Del The Funky Homosapien: No Need For Alarm
Tha Alkaholiks: 21 And Over, and Coast II Coast,
The Pharcyde: Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde
Ras Kass: Soul On Ice, and Rassassination
Murs: Murs 3:16 The 9th Edition, Murray's Revenge
The Coup: Kill My Landlord, Genocide & Juice, Steal This Album
FINALLY someone else who actually knows westcoast hip hop beyond gangsta rap! I roll my eyes so hard when people say we dont have lyrics.
Don't forget The Psycho Realm! Soul Assassin Too!
Can't wait for the maiden reaction.
Can actually experience you reacting to YOUR favourite band, which will be awesome to witness
🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Ras kass "rassasination" album is a straight classic for sorta old school, lyrical west coast.
Soul on ice
Understandably, you didn't feel the song "The Day Niggas Took Over." It is nonetheless relevant to the times of more recent days.
Some of us lived through and come from such background.
However, I believe that song resonates with people worldwide.
Not to all.
That track is powerful
It didn't take too long because we were living it while they were speaking it. If we started on metal yes it would be the same as you're going thru
This is definitely not lyrical like the east coast was at the time in comparison. This was more attitude and beat-focused.
Sounds like you need the doctor to check yo azz
Before I finish the video I wanted to say that, this album is a T10 rap album of all time for me. The album was HUGE with its hits. Also, you have to remember this was Dre's first album after leaving NWA or if you will, NWA breaking up. The sound production some people are still trying to catch up to.

Might as well do Chronic 2000 next
Frodo you should do a "You know what really grinds my gears?" segment because you have the funniest rants on youtube
Lemme tell ya Aaron. I got so many things that piss me off when it comes to things like that. I might just do a segment to see how it does lol.
This whole album is just it sonically lol, also Doggystyle to me you can tell Dre produced them back to back because to me they have the same kinda unique sound.
Next reaction = killarmy silent weapons for quiet wars
Check out Rage song Afro Puffs
The Chronic isn't lyrical, Dre didn't even write his own rhymes. its just gangsta, it slaps and its memorable.
🤦♂️RBX, Lady Of Rage, Kurupt are as Lyrical as they come!💣💣💥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🤦♂️
I've been listening to rap/hip hop from the early 80s. But how many people will remember Just-Ice or Rappin' Duke?
Can u do EPMD album they got Strictly Business, Business as usual, Business never personal, Back to business and a couple others with the business name in it

Facts!!
Masterpiece of an album, was created a yr after I was born, I was born in 91
Lady of rage is the first lady and original death row inmate also part of the DPGC (Dogg Pound gangsta Crips) which consists of snoops crew (Daz ,kurupt,rbx,Nate Dogg, eastsidaz and a bunch more) Kurupt is considered one of the greatest lyricists from the west coast. Kurupt and Daz are "That Dogg Pound"
You have to do Doggystyle by Snoop
dre is onr of the best west coast produsers
All eyez on me and the chronic 92 are the best
FYI, rapper Spotem Gottem got his name from this album
Frodo, it kind of depends on the set up with groups vs. individual artists.

Awesome album. I bought this CD at the swap meet in Anaheim for $10 in '96. Still have it.
snoop doggs - doggy style is a west coast classic...from start to finish

Please do your next video on 2pac’s classic album me against the world 1995 because his most accomplished and important by capturing just how suffocated he felt at every level of American life he created a damning indictment of the country that hated him back but it was when he found the sound and voice that we remember him for when he transformed gangsta rap into a vehicle of the blues, and when he ascended to culture omnipresent.
Lil Ghetto Boy, RZA later used the same sample on Wu-Tang Forever
Now you have to hear mutha fuckin g's from eazy e. That is where eazy put this beef to bed. Make sure to do the uncensored video. There are visuals in there you will need for full effect.
Lol you had it good with 10 channels as basic, we only had 4 in the UK, didn't get 5 channels until the mid-90s 🤣🤣🤣 You had to pay for Sky TV or cable. We didn't get more free channels until they rolled out freeview digital TV. Big up my bro, I'm still watching the reaction, up to Lyrical Gangbang.
Luke and his team had death row running from Jack the rapper convention
The D.O.C,
"Gorilla Pimpin' "
🔥
Dogg Pound - Dogg Food is a nice one too
Snoop was banned from Miami for this song suge was shot in Miami by a woman cause of dre day song... snoop ended up after 2000 on a Khaled song and video abs had to were a number 1 Miami hurricane jersey
Great reaction Frodo, loved it!
And yeah, most rappers have used that style where they split a word in two so that it still rhymes with the previous line, and then the rest of the word starts the next line. I don't think it has a specific name though.
If I can have a request though, might it be a classic House of Pain song? Who's the man - th-cam.com/video/4DNTgSqdwPU/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=TommyBoy
Or maybe some classic Cypress Hill - I aint going out like that - th-cam.com/video/q7p-ihYOG5s/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=CypressHillVEVO
Both classic bassline heavy songs that i think you'd love. The videos are actually worth watching too, not all butchered up versions.
Did you notice the lil ghetto boys song, Wu tang used that in there Wu tang Forever album.
Album for the poll...
ODB "NIGGA PLEASE"
Will you listen here '2001'?
In the 90’s West Coast Hip Hop was a little less lyrical and more Bass/Funk heavy.
East Coast Hip Hop was more lyrical and more Drum/Jazz heavy.
Commercial west coast hip hop was that way. Tha Alkaholiks, and Hieroglyphics for example are very lyrical.
@@Labelwhore6040 Good point!
That really only applies to gangata rap, and even then some gangsta rap was lyrical too like Spice 1's 187 Proof.
His reaction to the doctor's office 😂😂😂😂😂
Female Rapper: Jean Grey from Talib Kweli's Black Smith Records!!
when west coast rap, dre and snoop particulary, came out, a lot of hip hop fans in NYC didnt really like it.. sounded good. but lyrically it was kinda simple.. the rest of the USA loved it though, but here in NYC not really that much..
Lyrical Gangbang, High Powered and Stranded on Deathrow are extreme bangers
React to Busta Rhymes- first album in 1996 it’s a classic
Plenty of west coast artists were lyrically, they just werent gangsta.
Del abd heiroglyphics, pharcyde, souls of mischief, grouch, eligh etc
Eligh and tha grouch deserve their flowers. Blue Scholars is from the NorthWest Coast that deserve their honorable mentions too!
Check out🔥🔥 The Psycho Realm! 💣💣🔥🔥🔥
Ice Cube, Kurupt and Xzibit were lyrical. Not to mention Tash from the Alkoholiks, Ras Kass etc
Also Wu Syndicate and Almighty Black Knights which are two Wu affiliated groups from the West Coast
West coast style is more lay back .
Warren G -Regulate Gfunk Era. Could you add this to your list of album reactz please homie Frodo.
pls do 2001 dr dre albummm full revieww
Old dirty bastard played this album over and over on the tour bus
YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THE DISS VIDEOS BETWEEN DR. DRE AND EAZY-E. React to Dr. Day first then react to Eazy-E Real Compton City G's. You will understand the dissing better when looking at these music videos.
Listen to lil ghetto boy... did you catch the similarity to the Wutang forever album?
Just got one thing to say ....... The chronic is the BEST Gfunk album
Killah Priest : Heavy Mental. Top 3 rap albums of all time
Oh yeah
Chronic 2001 next
if ude like to check out some more classic compton artists ..check out ....KING TEE or COMPTONS MOST WANTED .... or DJ QUIK
Excellent album. A little too gangster for my tastes, but still excellent nonetheless.
You got to see the DR DRE F* WITH DRE DAY MUSIC VIDEO its hilarious
Do the album Wu Tang Meets Indie Culture
lol you said it doesnt seem like rap.. they are rapping.. but especially snoop, he kinda incorporated a more singy flowy style of rapping.. its cool.. but for those of us that prefer heavy lyrical content, we go elswhere.. still a dope album though. but again, i prefer wu tang, boot camp, nas, big Pun etc etc..
Hey you got to listen to snoop dogg song "Eat a dick" and you got to listen to Dr Dre bonus track "puffin on blunts and drankin
