Dre aint Dre no more, RZA aint RZA no more, which producer has held their power from the 90s?
Sounds dope, I like it!
Pete rock. Dj premier still do bangers. Heard some easy mo bee stuff on hes ig that went hard aswell.Quote:

I kinda like the fact that it's short and the songs don't drag on for too long. Too many MC's turn dope albums in to mediocre albums by padding them out with sub-par joints. I'd much rather have a Tical than a T2000... 13 tracks at 45 mins, or 28 tracks at 73 mins.
This Snoop album was waaaay better than I expected on first listen. Some good beats there, the tracks don't hang around long enough to get boring, and Snoop sounds good on this.
90's producers that still got it... there ain't many - I'd put Q-Tip, Premo and Muggs up there as three of the best that can still make that dope shit like they used to. Q-Tip's production on that LL album earlier this year is some of the best shit I heard all year!
Peace!
I agree that songs shouldnt be to long cause alot of people cant keep focus for a long time.Quote:

For me Muggs lost it long time ago aswell. Q tips production on LL cool Js album was a bit hit and miss.
The whole album was better then I expected but worse then the contract ep he released a couple of years ago.
The production on there was way better.
OUATIS got multiple songs hitting 7 min. Yikes!
I do agree with that... there was one or two tracks on this Snoop album where I thought they could have let the beat ride for a little longer, or drop another verse.Quote:

I really enjoyed the Q-Tip/LL album, one or two skip tracks but it was solid and I keep returning to it. I haven't checked out the EP you mentioned... I've never really been much of an LL fan so there's a lot of his stuff I've never checked.
Peace!
I need more listens of the album as a whole, but after a couple plays I enjoyed it. And this song in particular is good. Meth and Snoop has always been a light, fun, laidback vibe.
Side note; both these gentlemen(no disrespect to Smitty) are featured on Masta Killa’s first single “Pleased To Meet Ya” off his Balance album coming 1st quarter 2025 according to M80. Looks like he’s involved in Darkman’s release around that time as well.
As for Ringz question, I liked that Diamond D project recently. Think it was a three part EP series. Song with Deck and Shy was ill.
Meth went bananas on this one, damn! The album ain't bad! It really has some dope tracks
DJ Muggs. Best producer from 90s. Havoc probably still has it too but just haven’t heard much from him lately. Peace
This is a weird release from fan perspective. People shittin on it without even listening. Songs fine. I dont expect 50+ yr old men to drop atomics like they were 20-30 forever. Just getting a few songs outta these guys over some top production is a win at this point for anyone
i like it. Dont love it yet but its been a day.
Who is shitting on it? All I see its everyone likes it or atleast says its ok.Quote:

Method Man violated this track!
some big media is beung nice but rap forums are destroying it since the first single. Ok for snoop and dre is basically people saying na. The echo of dissapointment selling so low and people saying its over. I did not expect it to be 2001 level but seems some people really were disappointed. People been saying dre done done since compton came out and this was the most lukewarm ive ever seen people react to him. I dont agree but im surprised to see it for a dr dre record. Ive seen positive ones as well but on average, not the reaction i expected at all.Quote:

Ppl on YouTube think their opinion is so funding important...man stfu. There's a million ppl who think because they talk in front of a camera at home on their computer they Supposed to have stripes to speak on the quality of a project and tell ppl how to think....Dr Dre and snoop been doing this 30 years. These ppl ain't shit
Plus no one takes time with an album anymore. To listen a few times, soak it in. Everything is either “trash” or “gold” based off one listen. We’re in the swipe era, short attention spans.
Ok. When I listened to the album it was just released 6 hours before I woke up. Had some listens now even the instrumentals.Quote:

The issue with dr dre is that he is as good as the producers he has around him. And for me this was not it. On rhe album he uses some kind of filters aswell that didnt help the sound either. It sounds artificial and glossy.
Then I heard Snoop didnt write most of the album himself either.

Was surprised by this too, he only has credits on four of the songs. That is really low in my opinion for an album like this.Quote:

Other than that, I don't check for Pete Rock or Q-Tip. Even Dre was sometimes weak in the last decade if you checked for the single track by him on some album. Always thought Compton was overhyped, and dropped of the face of the earth after everybody posted about it. Never check for Havoc. The last I checked from Premier it was meh with that Gangstar album.Quote:
