Tray dee don’t get his flowers enough. This man was and still is a major force of west-coast music. Him, kurrupt snoop and Daz. Best group of all time!
I think his major debut was Droppin Bombz? The wordplay on that one is crazy. Vocabulary like someone who reads a lot. (2pac, Nas, Etc...) All the best lyricists are people who seem like they've read a ton of books.
Still my favorite cut on the album! Daz went bananas on the beat! And soon as I heard Snoop come with that “Hear ye, Hear ye” I knew it was finna be a classic! Tray Deee murdered that thang, “Niggaz coming realer than the real McCoy”. Tray Deee was official off rip.
That song is some of the hardest sh## from the '90s. CPO had the perfect menacing voice for that dark beat. Damn shame CPO never got to put out an album on Death Row.
Yoooo! Luv y’all for this! I was there…….late 94! Snoop was dat 🥷. From Deep Cover to The Chronic, to Doggystyle…..to this! What a legendary run that was! Murder Was The Case That They Gave Me! I’m innocent! I’m innocent!
I’m from Birmingham,Alabama & Respect & Love yall content DO NOT STOP TGIS SHIT IS BEAUTIFUL 💯💯…. & BY THE WAY “BACK ON THE STREETS STR8 BLUE & GRAY , CUZ I REPERSENT LIKE EVERYDAY”
Legends!! Deee and Crook are two artists that I get excited when I play anything new by them. They steal the show for me on everything they are on. I feel blessed that you are still out here doing your thing.
This discussion takes me back to being a kid, jammin my sister's Maxewell copy of Murder Was The Case, wearing my Raiders Starters jacket, eating 7-11 nachos, wit a Big Gulp talking a gang of shit wit my homies. DAMN I miss them days.......
I remember the day and place I bought this soundtrack. I was 13 years old in the 8th grade. That album was the soundtrack to the beginning of that school year and the ‘94 football and basketball season.
This one of my favorite podcasts. These are 3 people who were part of and deeply intertwined in West Coast Rap Royalty, and to hear them shining a light on the best records to ever come from The West is awesome. It's 3 insiders talking about it from an inside and outside perspective.DEEP. Please keep doing this forever.
This pick is much appreciated. I've only heard of this album mentioned one time ever, in a Day With Cali Boy video. I grew up on this album as in rotation. I listened to it all the time. It shaped so much of my style. You do sound like a vet on that song, Tray Deee. It's sad to hear about people being that poor, Crooked I. My mom has mentioned about being poor but I don't remember being hungry like that one time ever.
Slip told me he was only 14 when he did that track with CPO for Murder Was The Case and he sounded like a seasoned veteran . Gone way too soon! Slip was a beast on the mic. i feel blessed to have worked with him. We started a project we didn't get to finish called United Nationz as he wanted to bring Cali and UK rappers together as half of his family is from the UK. I
*Eastside Low Bottoms sh*t !* _Tappin' in from South Central LA_ That album is easily one of the hardest soundtracks on the planet. And in my section - and probably all over any East Side of LA - '21 Jump Street' was the muhhhhfuken ANTHEM ! I got 'The Eastside's Perfect' sewn in on the back of my hat. One of my old school potna's still has it tatted on his forearm.
I’m from the East Coast Jersey to be exact…… I love how y’all give insight and breakdown of the west coast culture and the music side as well as production
Yall definitely keep this podcast going we need some people that supa official on both sides from da streets and been deep and rose to big fame in the music industry!!!! to talk bout the west coast music roots💯💯💯💯 Not to down or carry nobody else podcast just keeping it a stack💯💯💯💯 I rock wit da Westside of da Country💯💯💯 Blessings and love from Richmond Va💯💯💯💯
Don't forget about "hot one" by o.f.t.b, a major banger! somebody correct me if I'm wrong but I think It wasn't included on the tape version but was added to the disc version or vice versa?
Murder was the Case was our Soundtrack growing up That and Lil Half Dead's first album Listening to Theo, Julio G, and Kevin Slo-Jamming James on 92.3 The Beat... You made us proud to be from Long Beach 👊🏻💥
I was in 6th grade when this soundtrack came out . I asked my moms for the movie on Valentine’s Day but she bought the soundtrack instead and I was so upset but when I listened to it I was happy as fuck !!! So coming from Southside Jamaica Queens west coast has always been my go to even till this day juuheard!!! This soundtrack changed me from kid to a young man instantly and it’s a staple in my life . So shout out to this podcast and the west is definitely hip hop
I was in 11th grade and instead of going to school i went to Tower Records and grabbed that tape went back to the turf grabbed 2 for 15 rolled up popped the tape in my walkman hit the play button and sparked that blunt and a hour later Murder was the case became my favorite soundtrack.
This ep was so good. Brought back alotta great memories. In '94, both the MWTC and Above The Rim soundtracks were played everywhere. Crook's breakdown of tge title track by Snoop was absolutely perfect. That's crazy that Tray Deee had that "U Betta Recognize" beat before Sam Sneed laid down his now classic song over the beat. So many people on this soundtrack have passed away now. Rest in peace to CPO, Jewel'le, Slip Capone, Nate Dogg, Ricky Harris and Big Wy. Nothibg better than classic '90s hip hop and r&b soundtracks.
Just like my man just post. The Eulogy is a classic. Straight bars 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤. Murder was the case, Natural born killer, U better recognize, What would u do, 21 jump street
Does Yac do radio out west or anything? She has great energy, knows her stuff and has a solid voice. She and Tray Dee could easily do a show and speak with the people.
Loved this retrospective! Would’ve loved to hear your opinions on the cassette bonus OFTB joint Hot One. The Eulogy is what made me want to be a writer, just the in depth vision visuals of what Slip and CPO showed throughout the song. Made me want to write my own stories
21 Jumpstreet made me a fan of Trey Dee...a supreme lyricist who doesn't get enough credit. I've been coppin anything with him on it ever since. From the Eastsiderz to General's List, etc. 🔥
My favorite show I swear s/o the host big tray deee yac, and crook and I must say as a 91 baby I have much game on these topics, wasn’t this tray deee debute on 21 jump street?
This the episode I been waiting for!!! And Crook this soundtrack dropped in 94 not 95! I think around October. I had graduated high school in may 94 and bought this tape in the fall.
That album is classic straight up from top to bottom. Even the rnb joints from the Jodeci and Dogg Pound Come up to my room, Jewell's The Harvest and remake of Woman to Woman, Danny Boy's joint Come when I call and B Rezell's Horny. They just don't make music like that today.
Love this show! Review the first eastsidaz album,the last meal by snoop, dogg food by dogg pound and westside connection’s bow down. God bless from 🇮🇪 churchhhh!!! ( can we please get Latoya Williams back in the studio? Angelic voice)
Yup i hear the Rakim 💯 like i told others about Big Tray deee ...Like...Monster Kody (in his prime not later) mixed with a flow like Rakim 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Harder than Hard. My Favorite. Like both aspects in one.
I got my hands on that when I was 22 living in Baltimore I blew so much weed at that time you couldn't tell me I wasn't from the West Coast 😂😂😂 thanks yall ❤❤❤
Tray dee don’t get his flowers enough. This man was and still is a major force of west-coast music. Him, kurrupt snoop and Daz. Best group of all time!
🙏🏾💯
You right fam, Tray Dee is pure Lyricist. He was cold from the jump. He gets busy with the best of them. Salute to the homie
🫡 da General
I think his major debut was Droppin Bombz? The wordplay on that one is crazy. Vocabulary like someone who reads a lot. (2pac, Nas, Etc...) All the best lyricists are people who seem like they've read a ton of books.
Tray Dee spits that gangsta sht. 21 Jump Street is one of the best songs on that soundtrack. I've always been a fan
Dee, Yac & Crook........West Coast Royalty
Salute
This was the first time I heard of Big Tray Deee was on "21 Jumpstreet" and I've been a fan since
Still my favorite cut on the album! Daz went bananas on the beat! And soon as I heard Snoop come with that “Hear ye, Hear ye” I knew it was finna be a classic! Tray Deee murdered that thang, “Niggaz coming realer than the real McCoy”. Tray Deee was official off rip.
And then the fact they did that song in one night
OG Tray Dee the 1 Who eventually made me like DPG... hated he had to flip 📅 those decades. Salutes Bro
☝🏽
My first time hearing Big Tray Deee was Reality from the Dogg Food album then I later checked out his verse on 21 Jumpstreet
RIP to CPO and Slip Capone. The Eulogy is one of the best songs on the album. The flows and beat are super dope.
Man U hit it on the nose Eulogy is the shit it’s so sinister
Hell yeah that my shit!!!
That song is some of the hardest sh## from the '90s. CPO had the perfect menacing voice for that dark beat. Damn shame CPO never got to put out an album on Death Row.
Facts!!!!!!!!
Cpo made the track almost like movie they way he told the story and the beat moves like a scene I get the 90s nostalgia
Best homage paying intro ever! Sending Love to the podcast hosts & everyone!!!!
🙏🏾💯
MWTC Soundtrack was/is a classic. Dr. Dre, Daz, Soopafly, DJ Quik on the production, Dr. Dre as soundtrack supervisor, wow.
I was 14 years old when this came out. This was the first cassette I ever bought. Classic
Tray-deee in a happy space fam, that’s good to see
Yoooo! Luv y’all for this! I was there…….late 94! Snoop was dat 🥷. From Deep Cover to The Chronic, to Doggystyle…..to this! What a legendary run that was! Murder Was The Case That They Gave Me! I’m innocent! I’m innocent!
I could never have imagined it was Tray Deee's first time doing a major recording! He was cold asf straight out the gate
This is one episode I wish i could discuss with Tray Dee cause 21 Jumpstreet is literally one of my all time favorite songs EVER!
I’m from Birmingham,Alabama & Respect & Love yall content DO NOT STOP TGIS SHIT IS BEAUTIFUL 💯💯…. & BY THE WAY “BACK ON THE STREETS STR8 BLUE & GRAY , CUZ I REPERSENT LIKE EVERYDAY”
Love y’all. Hope you make it to 1 million subs by this time next year. WEST COAST!

RESPECT. Tht soundtrack got me thru Basic and AIT around '95-'96...all of 'em bangers but "The Eulogy" serious.
And I can’t wait to see y’all do a review on the Above The Rim soundtrack too
That Soundtrack Is Amazing from Top to Bottom 1995 was a time to be alive and I was only 9 yrs old
This pick is much appreciated. I've only heard of this album mentioned one time ever, in a Day With Cali Boy video. I grew up on this album as in rotation. I listened to it all the time. It shaped so much of my style.

This is just what the World Been missing 🔥🔥🔥🔥 deep dive like this on all yall albums!
21 Jumpstreet is one of the best songs ever. Trey Dee killed that track, he was rapping like he was fresh out and hungry
Don't forget about "hot one" by o.f.t.b, a major banger! somebody correct me if I'm wrong but I think It wasn't included on the tape version but was added to the disc version or vice versa?
It was only on the cassette cus of the time constraints on the CD
All the videos for Murder Was The Case sdtrk was 🔥🔥🔥 Natural Born Killas video was ridiculous, plus the 2pac cameo 🤜🏾🤛🏾💯

"What Would You Do is hardcore G Funk!"

Damn bruh that touched my heart saying my hometown and my homie Nate on this podcast...Clarkvegas in the house.
Much love OGz..
Loved this retrospective!
Would’ve loved to hear your opinions on the cassette bonus OFTB joint Hot One.
The Eulogy is what made me want to be a writer, just the in depth vision visuals of what Slip and CPO showed throughout the song. Made me want to write my own stories
Just need Bullet Loco on to make this the hardest Podcast on The Pacific.

When I seen y'all (DPG)on the show movie when y'all was in the RV rapping to that joint,became my favorite song off that soundtrack
Y'all should put the name of each song on the screen so your viewers can follow what song you're referring to.
This a kool podcast.
This the episode I been waiting for!!! And Crook this soundtrack dropped in 94 not 95! I think around October. I had graduated high school in may 94 and bought this tape in the fall.

LBC crew was on fire 92-95!!! Fire I had totally forgot about the east during that time!!
So dope
Did yall do the Above The Rim soundtrack yet? 🤔
That album is classic straight up from top to bottom. Even the rnb joints from the Jodeci and Dogg Pound Come up to my room, Jewell's The Harvest and remake of Woman to Woman, Danny Boy's joint Come when I call and B Rezell's Horny. They just don't make music like that today.
Could you guys also comment Cheers by Obie Trice and The Documentary by The Game?
The orgins of Tray Deee's name. That's Gangsta!
... REQUEST: DOGGY'S ANGELS Pleezbaleevit, EASTSIDAZ albums FIRST one especially. Keep it Dogg Pound 🐾.
I was hoping they kicked lil C Style second verse off Who Got Some Gangsta. Like that scene from the movie ’The Show’. They was lit on the bus 😆
Love this show! Review the first eastsidaz album,the last meal by snoop, dogg food by dogg pound and westside connection’s bow down. God bless from 🇮🇪 churchhhh!!! ( can we please get Latoya Williams back in the studio? Angelic voice)
