@@fruitpac It's about the delivery, Lady Of Rage was lyrically maybe better, but in terms of delivery, evoking emotions, etc. no one can match/touch Pac. Pac conjures an atmosphere in tracks that can't be imitated 🎲🎭🎱
I've said it BEFORE and I'll say it again! If the Dogg Food album had "What Would U Do?", "Got My Mind Made Up" and "For All My Bitches and Niggas" on it, then it would truly be regarded as the ALL-TIME CLASSIC that it should be, and not the criminally underrated album that it is when those conversations are brought up. Dogg Pound made some dope azz music fo' real!!
Facts but sadly they never seemed to have that same chemistry or magic of that first album when they had tried after that. Frankly, what had happened to daz's beat making and Kurupts rhyming since then?
oh my God i was soo addited to them tracks u mentioned every ,block in Lagos , Nigeria wherre blasting it back then. 90s, Kurupt was my fav at the time bar wise.
Bro she has one song two verses. 😳 legend for what? She was on death row around some of the greatest and biggest Rap stars, musicians, artists and producers and She fumbled the pack. Seems like she folded from the pressure. She was on Dr Dre time and pace. And Dre take forever!!! If it weren't for Daz & Kurrupt's quick pace and work ethic, Snoop wouldn't have come out. So you see you have workers and you have wanters..Rage was a wanter.
Damn, got some clarity on Rage album situation. Dogg Food should've had at least 2 more singles. Smooth, Dogg Day Afternoon, So Much Style, Do What I Feel and of course Reality could've been singles. Not to mention my favorite song, I Don't Like To Dream About Getting Paid
@@corysmith4293 yeah I was very impress with how the album turned out and you can play it from start to finish without skipping it and every record had a good concept and I liked the beats that daz made and his production kept on getting better and better with time since he did co produce some songs on the chronic as well as doggstyle

@@j2323j don't tell me why I liked Death Row. It was still gangsta cause all them were on Death Row at one point. Probably a young ni66a cause your comment sounds stupid. What gangsta got to do with music production. Death Row falling apart and PAC dying was cause ni66az wanted to be gangsta.
Daz produced the lion share of the Death Row LPs that came later. Both The Chronic and Doggystyle were done by Dre exclusively. To be honest, with him and Pooh mixing the tracks to Dogg Food. It would've never sounded not nearly as good. Daz will always gets his props as a beatmaker, but DR slowly crumbled after Dre left. I would've definitely kept Sneed around because he was thing to what Suge had in Dre.

@@Styliesinceninedeuce yup exactly bro. All I kept hearing back then was Eargasm was coming out,Eargasm was coming out. Thats the album I kept waiting for.
@@vexotimmer2675 sometimes when people work that fast is cuz they got rhymes in their rhyme bag already so just finding beats and choping rhymes and tweaking if need to be current etc...
Pac was LEGENDARY for his work ethic in the studio! Was focused in the studio and hated wasting time! After he finished a song he was on to the next! Just a beast when it came to pumping out songs! The other dudes on Death Row Snoop included were forced to step up their game because of Pac!
Rage is a beast on the mic, still kick Afro puffs today. Shout out to the homie kurupt. True pioneer in the game, still holdin it down damn near 30 years later!
Lady of Rage and Kurupt have the most East Coast style of rapping out of everyone else that was signed to Death Row in the 90’s. Sucks that she couldn’t wrap up her project before Pac got home. And this was pre Lil Kim and Foxy and the East/West Coast Beef era so who knows how her album would’ve been received.
@@nobleman_81 Nice crew but Warren G was never signed to Death Row. He was cool with all those dudes of course Dre being his brother and Snoop and them but he wasn't signed to Death Row
It should’ve been The Chronic 1992 Doggystyle 1993 Above The RIM 1994 Lady Of Rage 1994 Murder Was The Case 1995 Dogg Food 1995 All Eyez On Me 1996 Nate Dogg 1996 Makaveli 1996
1995 would've too late to drop Murder Was The Case movie & soundtrack. Murder Was The Case was one the biggest singles from Doggystyle, plus Snoop was actually going through legal trouble. You gotta strike while the iron is hot. They flipped Snoop's public controversy into more promo for the label. That was a genius move.
Am from Nigeria and I've loved dogg pound since 93,94 and so forth..you guys are the bomb ..Daz , kurupt , rage , Nate dog, warren g..u guys are the bomb grew up with your records
@@TosereOjeme snoop was cool until he switched sides and told stories of Tupac and bla bla lolz..don't mind me ..snoop is very cool ..he's the dogg father ..we all mimed snoops shitz nitz and gin n juice
at that time I was living in Africa too. Sénégal in 94 and moved to Mali in 95. when 2pac California love came out, he stopped the game. I was coming from France and I was surprised that nobody heard about Dr Dre, Snoop doggy Dogg or Warren G. I didn't know about DPG at that time. because I didn't speak English so I didn't understand the lyrics, the names, anything and not every album single was known overseas (at least outside the English speaking countries) since we depended of the radios and Tv... but 2pac... cali love remix version was everywhere.
art of dialogue you gotta invite Kurupt again. you asked good questions, and he gave good detailed answers. 4 this one he really gave us a picture of the atmosphere at death row. and even more precisions when he said that RBX and Rage were is favorites after Snoop.
2pac was only on Death Row for 11 months and in those 11 months. He recorded nearly 120-130 songs or more, that resulted in: All Eyez On Me, Makaveli, Still I Rise, Until The End Of Time, Better Dayz albums. That's 5 albums that was released on Death Row record label. 2pac didn't come to play (music wise) he did 2-3 songs a day. And that's why I tell people. He was the best Death Row artist. I know Dr. Dre and Snoop laid the blueprint. But 2pac still put in the work. It didn't take him a month to finish All Eyez On Me. He complete that in two weeks. And don't sleep on Until The End Of Time and Better Dayz albums. Both two solid albums. With tons of hits on them
It breaks my heart that Death Row fail in the end..... But low key I never expected Rage to drop before the Dogg Pound... Man I miss these times so much... These were the debates we were having back then... Who was coming out next or who's album was going to be the dopest. Great times....
One By One is the most underrated song on there. As a kid, I wrote out Kurupt's verses for that song, NY NY and Doggz Day Afternoon, so that I could practice rapping along. Good times back then 👍👍👍
I always felt bad for her rage because she was dope AF, she was actually on the chronic so she was on every death row album that came out in the early days of death row, but her album didn’t come out till 1997 or 1998 and by the time it came out, death row was pretty much over. I didn’t even know, her album came out back then until years later. There was no promo for that album at all. I never once a music video for it on MTV or BET or anything.
I played the paint off that dog food cassette I got for my birthday in December 1995. I'm from New York and I love the New York New York track, I didn't even know they were dissing NY until months later.
Thats because they weren't dissing. The diss didn't come until the video the visuals were the diss not the song. The song was a ode to the mecca. Which is why Kurupt is the only one rapping (with him being the best lyricist of the 3).
1995 was a unbelievable year in the Rap game, Dogg pound- dogg food, Bone thugs and Harmony-Est1999, Gangsta Pat-Deadly verses, 2pac - Me against the world and Eight ball &Mjg - Space age primping all classic albums. Lord knows that will never happen again.
It's still on streaming? To me, that tells me how wack it was. Snoop took down all the classic Death Row albums and soundtracks, except the 2Pac stuff he doesn't own. Snoop likely forgot about that Rage album lol.
This clears things up more. Doing great work asking these questions. Dogg Food is my favorite album from that roster but Rage had plenty of potential for a classic album. If things didn't fall apart like they did I'm sure she would have came through.
Rage spoke about Pac actually looking to recruit her and assist her at one point. She was a little more picky than people think. Whatever it was that she was looking for probably wouldn’t have worked after “All Eyes On Me”, cause that album changed the climate and led Deathrow in another direction.
@@MrHowse-rt5bo yeah All eyez on me set the tone for late 90s rap. It had some G funk elements but for the most part it took sound in a different direction than what we were used to in the early 90s
*Eastside Low Bottoms sh*t !* _Tappin' in from South Central LA_ I recently went back and listened to that Dogg Food CD. Maaaan I forgot how hard that album is ! I was bumpin' that in my lowrider for three weeks straight ! 🤜🏾💥🤛🏾
I loved that "Afro Puffs" song. I even sampled it myself. I think DJ Premier did too. I wish Rage would've dropped that album back then. She eventually did drop an album in like '97 but Death Row had already fallen off by then
Yeah they played Lady of Rage she was the coldest in the game lyrically back then she went Bar for Bar with everybody on that label, a Dr Dre produced Album she would've been on top of the world.....
With the og inmates, you could really see the family vibe they had. In the videos it seemed like they were all just having fun. But around the time 2pac arrived things looked more hectic
that wasn't the case 4 me. my favorite was "I don't like 2 dream about getting paid" because the instrumental is really varied. let's play house and NY NY were the 2 I liked less from the album. because the beat was too slow and simple. my opinion 🤷🏾♂️.
So basically it seems like he’s saying that Rage wasn’t working fast enough to get her project off the ground. She’s kind of in that Dr. Dre pace of being such a perfectionist that you basically time yourself out.
Haven’t watch your channel in a while. Good video man, ima get back into it! Also please take some time between the next Gene interview 😂 not tryna tell you how to do your job I just know myself and many other viewers can go without the guy for a while. His interviews are entertaining none the less!
He made a whole bunch of songs on death row and also did 3 movies and their soundtracks.woooow this man was a alien because it's harder to do a motion picture movie than a album,but he did all this in 9 months on death row wooow 😯🤯💥
Man O man!!!!! That DOGG FOOD album is Top 10 ALL TIME!!! I remember listening to that in College and THATS ALL WE LISTENED TO! LOL, those boys put it together! I was in Sac and that album played ALL OVER the West Coast! Shout out to the Pound!
Her lack of work ethic did death row dirty. They spent plenty money promoting her, and she dragged ass in the studio, would take forever to write songs, would rewrite songs and scrap concepts, change shit around, wanted to be in the studio alone racking up time and money. She wasted their time.
@@joepesci8930 "lack of work ethic"??? Dude what are you talking about...Either you are mentally-slow, or you didn't even listen to what the man said. Go back and ACTUALLY LISTEN to what he said instead of posting inaccurate GIBBERISH.
Kurupt, would be awesome if you went on some music service and made these playlists. It would be interesting to hear the original mixes of what was released. I’m like 90% sure it would be legal and would make for some awesome streams.
The Lady of Rage did release a CD, which I owned. I liked it, but it lacked the production that "The Chronic" and "Doggystyle" both had. She is still a legend though. Especially since she survived Death Row Records.
Dog Pound’s Dog Food is the first cd I played in my cd Walkman #rarerandom💿 Instant classic in Cali. “Now there’s no way for me to turn There’s no way for me to hide from reality As complex as the situation gets …..”. Top 5 dual of all time
Man let me tell or cosign something y'all might or I hope rather y'all already know Lady of Rage is 1 of the best lyricist male or female! I had the pleasure of meeting & getting to see her perform bc she's from where I'm from, it's sad it feels like her career was mishandled 👀
"Respect" was kind of a 1st single on Dogg Food (maybe a leak). I remember they played that shit on the intro, to a episode of "NY Undercover". I was like damn.
Tupac Was Just a big Superstar on Deathrow I think only Snoop was on the same level of status as far as mid 90s era but these other guys were dope lyrical MCs thoo

They talk about this stuff all the time behind the scenes is they glory years. If you ever in the studios they skate stories all the time

To me it's missing the Death Row sound
This clears things up more. Doing great work asking these questions. Dogg Food is my favorite album from that roster but Rage had plenty of potential for a classic album. If things didn't fall apart like they did I'm sure she would have came through.
Rage spoke about Pac actually looking to recruit her and assist her at one point. She was a little more picky than people think. Whatever it was that she was looking for probably wouldn’t have worked after “All Eyes On Me”, cause that album changed the climate and led Deathrow in another direction.
Yea that Dogg Food album was the shit classic classic album
@@MrHowse-rt5bo yeah All eyez on me set the tone for late 90s rap. It had some G funk elements but for the most part it took sound in a different direction than what we were used to in the early 90s
I believe Suge had no real interest in pushing a female artist too. I believe that's part of the reason her career suffered
@@jackjill8129 Based on what?
Rage is my favourite female MC. She hasn't lost her touch after all these decades... she had production from Dre, Mo Bee, Preemo, Daz...
Let's be real, Pain was by far the best song on the ATR soundtrack.
Dogg pound 4 Life 4 me!
Yeah man I played tf out that Dogg Food album.
Big pimpin
@@Gunta45 that was #2 4 me w Afro Puffs
@@davidcampbell215 you right. I was bugging
Damn that's why RBX on Em album. Always loved the record, the connection jus never made full sense to me. I'm bumping RBX today ! Thx Art
“DOGG FOOD” CLASSIC GANGSTA PLAYA ALBUM
Great interview with Kurupt. I will watch the full interview because at that time Death Row Records was legendary with the talent roster. Salute!
Dogg Food is a classic 💙
An rbx album produced by Dre would’ve been crazy at that time
It was all worthy. All eyes on me because a timeless classic
Dogg Food is my favorite Death Row album.
First time learning about that album.. I will search it and look it up
Lady of rage was definitely a beast on the mic she did deserve to be utilized more
Dogg Food still a classic.
Literally one of my personal top 10 favorite rap albums EVER!!!
All these songs are classics💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
If you have to say "is still", that mean it ain't.
@@AndrewQuiroz24 it is.
@@thecunninlynguist don’t say still then💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
This is the best Kurupt interview I’ve ever heard. You are asking the questions the real death row fans want answered
Rage DID drop an album in 1997 and it was dope. Very under appreciated album.
I always wonder why she never blew up. She was one of the best imo....
They should have dropped her album right after afro puffs. She was on 🔥. Still one of the greatest female MCs.
*Eastside Low Bottoms sh*t !*
_Tappin' in from South Central LA_
I recently went back and listened to that Dogg Food CD. Maaaan I forgot how hard that album is ! I was bumpin' that in my lowrider for three weeks straight !
🤜🏾💥🤛🏾
That new Kurupt & C-Mob collab album is fire 🔥. I would have never thought those Two would link up to do music together.
Yeah, I like C-Mob. He's featured on a lot of Strange Music (Tech N9ne's label) albums. I would love if he were able to sign to Strange Music.
I loved that "Afro Puffs" song. I even sampled it myself. I think DJ Premier did too. I wish Rage would've dropped that album back then. She eventually did drop an album in like '97 but Death Row had already fallen off by then
You're right Premier did. If memory serves me correct it was on Boom by Royce Da 5'9
That’s prolly how kurupt felt at the time but that Dogg food album is a #1 classic album the whole CD go up from start to finish
I'm glad he clarified everything. I've always wondered what happened with Rage
One of the best Kurupt interviews ever. A lot of golden era history!
Yeah they played Lady of Rage she was the coldest in the game lyrically back then she went Bar for Bar with everybody on that label, a Dr Dre produced Album she would've been on top of the world.....
Danny Boy somewhere punching the pillow listening to the lineup of who was supposed to drop. Lol
😂😂😂😂😂
"It Goes Reggie...Jay Z...2pac & Biggie....Andre From OutKast...Jada...Kurupt...Nas & Then Me" ~Eminem~
"I don't like to dream about getting paid"
"I've been dreaming too long, too long, too longgggg...."
THE REALITY SONG 🎧 FROM THE DOGG POUND WAS 🔥🔥🔥TRAY DEE’S VERSE WAS A MONSTER 👹!!!!
Without Kurupt and Daz, there would not of been that Deathrow magic. One of my fav mc and producers hands down
Real happy you got Kurupt for another interview
Rumor has it she still working on her album
I still can’t believe 2 pac was only with death row records for 7 mos. He did a lot in that time frame.
Just think he did 5 albums and 6 movies in a 5yr span thats insane 91-96
11 months
Thank you for bringing Kurupt on to drop so much game and history!
"For All My Niggaz and My Bitchez" was the f'n joint! 🔥🔥🔥
Lady of Rage did release an offering in '97. It was called "Necessary Roughness". I had the tape.
With the og inmates, you could really see the family vibe they had. In the videos it seemed like they were all just having fun. But around the time 2pac arrived things looked more hectic
That “Let’s Play House” record STAYS ON REPEAT!! 🔥🔥🔥
I keep Reality and so much style on repeat!
that wasn't the case 4 me. my favorite was "I don't like 2 dream about getting paid" because the instrumental is really varied. let's play house and NY NY were the 2 I liked less from the album. because the beat was too slow and simple. my opinion 🤷🏾♂️.
Facts
@@bigomar777 the production on "respect" is very underrated too
@@jackjill8129 I really love that one two. Respect his a great production with many different sound and the back voices from funkadelics
So basically it seems like he’s saying that Rage wasn’t working fast enough to get her project off the ground. She’s kind of in that Dr. Dre pace of being such a perfectionist that you basically time yourself out.
She probably had writer's block
If she was smart she could have paid pac to write for her
Haven’t watch your channel in a while. Good video man, ima get back into it! Also please take some time between the next Gene interview 😂 not tryna tell you how to do your job I just know myself and many other viewers can go without the guy for a while. His interviews are entertaining none the less!
He made a whole bunch of songs on death row and also did 3 movies and their soundtracks.woooow this man was a alien because it's harder to do a motion picture movie than a album,but he did all this in 9 months on death row wooow 😯🤯💥
One of my favorite albums DPGC 4 LIFE
2pac Is The Greatest. 💯
Above The Rim came out before MWTC. Dogg Food had no skips, legendary album.
Dog Food would've been a bigger classic with those songs. That's crazy
Kurupt spoke nothing but facts
I remember getting that Dogg food album I stole it from a record store in the mall
Man O man!!!!! That DOGG FOOD album is Top 10 ALL TIME!!! I remember listening to that in College and THATS ALL WE LISTENED TO! LOL, those boys put it together! I was in Sac and that album played ALL OVER the West Coast! Shout out to the Pound!
Would love too hear more stories about the Dogg Food album. First CD I ever purchased.
Death Row did The Lady Of Rage dirty.
Her lack of work ethic did death row dirty. They spent plenty money promoting her, and she dragged ass in the studio, would take forever to write songs, would rewrite songs and scrap concepts, change shit around, wanted to be in the studio alone racking up time and money.
She wasted their time.
No, they didn't. They gave her a look.
I wouldn't say 'dirty' but she could have used the tutelage D.O.C. gave Snoop on songwriting
I disagree!
She took too long to complete her shit!
O well
@@joepesci8930 "lack of work ethic"??? Dude what are you talking about...Either you are mentally-slow, or you didn't even listen to what the man said. Go back and ACTUALLY LISTEN to what he said instead of posting inaccurate GIBBERISH.
I still want to hear the 90s Rage ❤
Unnecessary Roughness
@@fruitpac Vlad owns this channel too?
Kurupt, would be awesome if you went on some music service and made these playlists. It would be interesting to hear the original mixes of what was released. I’m like 90% sure it would be legal and would make for some awesome streams.
Kurupt's verse on Smooth 🤯🤯🤯
Dogg food album did 2million ..that was a classic
Nah more like 3.5 in 95,96
@@shawtyeatemup1352 even better ...I think kurupt got his timeline messed up ..that album was will established before pac came
@@snoopbell1 I bought it December 95!!! 2pac dropped February 96 I remember that album cost over $20 but I didn't complain
@@shawtyeatemup1352 💯💯same here..I miss them days
Dogg Food is definitely up there with The Chronic and Doggystyle
Shows you need to always have a sense of urgency with everything you do
The Lady of Rage did release a CD, which I owned. I liked it, but it lacked the production that "The Chronic" and "Doggystyle" both had. She is still a legend though. Especially since she survived Death Row Records.
Dog Pound’s Dog Food is the first cd I played in my cd Walkman #rarerandom💿 Instant classic in Cali. “Now there’s no way for me to turn There’s no way for me to hide from reality As complex as the situation gets …..”. Top 5 dual of all time
Dogg Food '95 that album was one of my favourite albums from DEATH ROW after Doggystyle and ALL EYEZ ON ME
Makaveli
@@melvinhhcp3615 of course "The Don Killuminati"
Man let me tell or cosign something y'all might or I hope rather y'all already know Lady of Rage is 1 of the best lyricist male or female! I had the pleasure of meeting & getting to see her perform bc she's from where I'm from, it's sad it feels like her career was mishandled 👀
Greatest era in the history of rap music.
Yes it was big time
Daaammmn straight!!!
Smh....disagree heavily but whatever, I'm from the beast coast and we have many great eras...🤔
Dogg Food , you can play that start to finish 🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏾
"Respect" was kind of a 1st single on Dogg Food (maybe a leak). I remember they played that shit on the intro, to a episode of "NY Undercover". I was like damn.
Tupac Was Just a big Superstar on Deathrow I think only Snoop was on the same level of status as far as mid 90s era but these other guys were dope lyrical MCs thoo
Tupac brought down the label with his studio gangster bs then snoop build it back up years later
@@taheemc tupac couldve focused on making the labels money but no he took the studio gangster route that gave suge a long sentence too
Just listened to Dogg Food entire album a few ago. Still 🔥🔥🔥.
I appreciate Kurupt bringing us behind the curtain
