Love this album!! Solid from beginning to end..from production to lyrics to the mixing and mastering of the album..one of my all time favorite albums!!
Back then, Dogg Pound was like the West Coast Mobb Deep to ME.
Accurate comparison 🔥🔥
Even a UGK. BunB a better rapper but Pimp C in beats. Like Daz in beats and Kurupt the lyricist
Yeah, Outkast was the Atlanta dogg pound
No, EPMD was the Long Island dogg pound
No, Pete Rock and CL Smooth was the Mt Vernon dogg pound
😂😂 let's just name all the duo's in hip-hop 😂
@@erniesydow959you think Bun is a better MC than Pimp C ? 😂😂
@@RasPsalm I loved Pimp C as far as voice and hooks and beats, I think Bun B is a better lyricist. They complimented each other
Fun fact: Daz and Kurupt originally planned to have "Got My Mind Made Up", "What Would U Do?" and "For All My Niggaz & Bitches" on this album as well... let's say they also included the main version of Big Pimpin' with them slick ass Daz and Snoop verses, and this could've been an UNSTOPPABLE classic!!! This album is still amazing as it is though! Dogg Pound 4 Life!
2Pac's "Can't C Me" was also supposed to be on this album! But once Tupac got out, Suge made a few artists give up their songs to Tupac for All Eyez on Me
If all those songs were on this album then that woulda made it better than doggystyle and the chronic
They would have merked that song.
Inspectah Deck & Lady of Rage was on the original version of Got my mind Made Up
This album had even more that could’ve been on. Not just the tracks mentioned but Just Doggin’ from Sunset Park soundtrack, Dogg Pound 4 Life and the original Big Pimpin they ended up putting on Above the Rim,Niggas Don’t Give Fuck they used for Poetic Justice soundtrack, Like Dis, Let’s Play House (Warren G feature) and Every Single Day that were unreleased until they were recently put on Doggy Bag album. Can’t imagine having those on this album. Really could’ve done a double album
I'm one of the guys that gets on you for not doing enough West Coast... appreciate you doing this album.
BTW the Westside Connection "Bow Down" album got 4 1/2 mics in the source and is a hip hop classic that really tells the west coast perspective of the East/West beef.
Finally! 😊 Been waiting for you to check this out since you did Snoop's "Doggystyle" album. This ranks right up there with that and "The Chronic" album.
Chronic for your peace of mind, Doggystyle for your pieces and Dogg Food for your Soul.
New York New York was meant as a tribute to NY. The video started as tribute to NY. Biggie heard Dogg Pound was in NY doing the video and came on a NY radio station encouraging NY to attack them and the Dogg Pound got their trailer shot up. After that they put in the video Snoop kicking over the buildings.
@erniesydow959 don't know where you heard that story from but in actuality in 95' a week after the famous Source Awards Daz n Kurupt was on the L.A. radio station Power 106 talking about that night after the awards at the after party there was about 50 rappers from New York freestyling and they all said Kurupt battled every single one of them and basically served all of them. On the plane ride home Daz said Kurupt wrote the song on the plane about that night and that's why at the end of that song you hear Kurupt saying "it was the night I served 2000 emcees" .... snoop came in later and added the hook. It was low key always a diss track to the ones who were involved that night at the Source awards in New York. The tension was already building between East n West then once Pac got out it just escalated even more. The rest is history. Facts
@@TheFourNineThree I heard the the radio station story many times from many sources,it's even on Wikipedia. I'm not going to say your story is wrong but can you provide a link.
@@TheFourNineThree BTW as a huge fan of west coast rap I'd love to believe your version
@erniesydow959 I remember it was a Friday morning in 95' and i was getting ready and Power106 had Daz on the phone and he was telling what happened that night and like I said. How can I possibly have that or find it? Lol I doubt Wikipedia would even have that. I was listening from a little radio i had no cassete to record it or anything. There was no live streaming or phones back then to record anything. Who knows. But I know what I heard
Hell yeah been waiting for this
You see how well this album has aged. That shows you the undeniable skill set and talent these dude have
Thanks Ahmad! You brought back so much nostalgia for me with this 1⃣. This is prime Death Row. They were putting out the most elite 🎶 in the game. ABSOLUTE CLASSIC! BTW checkout original Big Pimpin' from the 'Above the Rim' Soundtrack you will not be disappointed
Young Man, you're taking me way back when I was up to No Good, I'm glad you've discovered this album, I still have this CD 🤣
Nice one. Still so much classic west coast up for reviewing! I would love DJ Quik - Safe + Sound
@@vredeling man Ahmad sleeps on Quik. One of the greatest producer/mcs ever💯
Facts
This album perfectly shows why Kurupt is in my top 5 and his recent verse on Who Da Hardest shows he’s still got it.
LA here. I hung out with Kurupt a couple years ago, and I'm happy to say he's a really legit and cool person. Pure quality and warmth. I was so happy, because I've been a huge fan since the early 90s.
For context, MC Eiht, Xzibit, and Sen Dog were there too. Incredible night. Kurupt stood out as being a max classy and solid dude. This whole album is phenomenal. West Coast classic for sure. I also recommend Album Ten Gettin It by Too Short. Another CA classic.
This One Of My Favorite CDs I Bought In 95
One of my favorite albums of ALL TIME. I listened to this jawn on the el train everyday on my Walkman in high school. 😂 This a west coast album, but don’t forget Kurrupt from Philly.
My favorite track on this album is "I Don't Like to Dream About Gettin' Paid" hands down. You can ride to it ALL DAY baby! The sample on that track is from "Love Will Find a Way" by Lionel Richie.
My top 10 hip hop albums, One by one stuck out to me with Kurupt and these beatz gotta be some of the best ever made in Hip Hop. Every time I hear let’s play house I think of Pac dancing to it at club 662, you gotta do Canibus Can-i-bus album.
"Fuck around and you'll get chipped off like the Sphinx." - Rage
Bro, you have no idea you literally just made my entire day fam! 🙏🏾
If you can, you got to review the Murder was the case soundtrack and Above the rim soundtrack classics.
Both of them bang
Daz produced alot of this with little collaboration
Crazy that Dazz dillinger produce most of this west coast classic that's still in rotation on my play list.
Daz with the production kurupt wit the folw classic
You already know that makes a classic album there's no skips on this album No Lie
Made my day youngsta. Peep Westside Connections "Bow Down". Another west coast classic
@@grubbyD Hell yeah 👍
This might be the best Death Row release . These guys help write The Chronic and featured on Doggy Style . Top 10 best album of the 90’s . This album was produced by Daz and mixed by Dr Dre .
So it was mixed by Dre, the production on this album is the big mystery, credits just say Produced by Daz, but it has come out in several interviews that it was DJ Pooh, Daz, Soopafly, and Warren G all chipping in on producing this album. And I tend to believe it, because Daz released a ton of albums since and none of them come close to this sonically.
@@abdelmessiht DJ Quik says also he worked on this 📼 but I never found out which records he did.
@@jamesduckery DJ Quik probably help mix some records on this album also because he mixed a lot of 2Pac’s All Eyes on Me that came out right after Dogg Food dropped .
Agreed!
The song in the background when the first WBallz radio skit is playing is a song called “Hit Rocks/Bussn Rocks” by Snoop. It was actually on the CD Dead Man Walking that Death Row put out after Snoop left. Unfortunately that album isn’t on Spotify
Might want to put Murder Was The Case soundtrack on the list. 2 of their best songs are on the Above The Rim soundtrack Big Pimpin (w/Nate Dogg) 🔥 and Dogg Pound 4 Life. And many might not know, but they produced a MC Hammer track Sleepin' on a Master Plan that is cold.
Oh, and just rewatched the Doggystyle review again the other night in anticipation of Dogg Food.👌🏿
New York New York wasn't a diss to NY, Snoop kicking over the buildings didn't happen until after Dogg Pound trailer was shot at during the New York Neq York video shoot (side note- Biggie went on a NY radio station and instigated the shooting)
The original Big Pimpin slapped hard too💯
OMG, hell yeah!
Hell yeah Nate dogg killed that joint.
💯 🎯 @KingAhmadTV you gotta checkout the original. Hip-hop classic!
Yup on that Above the Rim soundtrack
@gibranmcdonald9853 nowadays people hear the song title Big Pimpin and they think Jay-Z. They don't even know about the original
Finally!!!! Damn, now I gotta go back and watch the whole replay review from the beginning
Yeah!! I missed this somehow?!?! Gotta turn on those notifications 😅
This album is so dope. I played this out back in high school. Not many ofy friends had it and they always wanted to hear it out loud. They both shine on this. I think you're right in saying this is Doggy style II. Westside!!!!! W! 1995 classic year.
Dre only produced one song (Let's Play House), but Daz and DJ Pooh carried on the established production vibes Dre brought music wise from Chronic and Doggystyle.
Before watching: I'm here. Present.
After watching: And you're right about that West Coast/DeathRow/Dre/Daz production. It's uniquely fire and hypnotic. Some of these joints you can listen to without the bars. The bars make it better but yeah, back then i used to tell my friends that East Coast made beats but them dudes made music. And I've always had Kurupt in my top 10. Maybe 6th. At one point he was number 3 to me and im from NYC.
But yeah, thanks for the review. What a time it was to be alive. Ive destroyed many Walkmans and CD players with these joints.
This is one of the greatest debut albums that was ever made for a hip-hop group on any coast! Track for track and so mfn underrated When it comes to ranking greatest albums!
This is the shit. Tha Dogg Pound is what the west coast is all about.
The song big pimpin was the movie above the rim soundtrack
Dope reaction. This one took me down memory lane. Youre right about albums from that era basically taking you on a journey. I'm born and raised in LA, but even still, in '95, this album was the soundtrack to damn near everything happening in the streets.
I lived in a Blood neighborhood back then (Baldwin Village aka The Jungles), and even they were slapping this album despite Tha Dogg Pound obviously being Crips. That's how undeniable this album was.
Sonically, this is still one of the best albums from the '90s. You don't see the names in the credits, but Dr. Dre, Soopafly and Dj Quik all contributed some ghost production on here, with Dre mixing the majority of it.
Lotta controversy around this album, too. Time Warner, which Interscope was a subsidiary of, delayed this album for months because of the political backlash against gangsta rap at the time. Suge, Dre & Jimmy Iovine ended up putying this album out through Priority Records, not Interscope, to placate Time Warner's shareholders, who weren't too happy with the controversy.
My 5 fave songs off this:
I Don't Like To Dream...
Let's Play House
Cyco-Lic-No
Doggz Day Afternoon
Respect
Peace King. Peace to the Family. Love the fact you came dress for the occasion. Love this album. Classic West Coast Shit💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love this album! this is one of the first cds my mom took away from me haha! I was 11 listneing to this at a time when internet didnt really exist so magazines and cds were our only real window into the hip hop culture, good music lives forever! DPG!
Kurupt is mad underrated!
Reminiscing when I had 2 15s in my truck of my Supra bumping this album. Underrated album.
GETO BOYS - TILL DEATH DO US PART. It has my favorite and greatest Crew song in BRING IT ON as the last track and they all Spazzed out on that one..
Hell yeah. This album is underrated. Bro id love to see you do Onyx, All We Got Iz Us album.
Love that record
DPG is a whole style, like wu tang is a whole style. thats why doggystyle is so similar style wise, u can say snoop is a DPG afiliated just like Nate dogg and warren g
This album ain't just a west coast album , it's a hip hop classic, a masterpiece, no skip album this lp went platinum, def in my top 10 albums OAT. Back when no one could touch a g-funk.
You need to review some tracks by the HRSMN.. that's a supergroup consisting of Canibus, Kurupt, Killah Priest, Ras Kass & , Chino XL & Pharoahe Monch
What up King Ahmad..on a West Coast vibe u should review Murder Was The Case soundtrack next bro...all Death Row classics bruh
Also representing Westcoast is The Pharcyde LABCABINCALIFORNIA. Trust me on this bro
🔥🔥🔥
Great review, sadly this was the peak of Kurupt, he never sounded as sharp and focused as he did here again. The closest was maybe Streetz iz a Mutha in 1998 by even there he is not as sharp as he was here.
As for a West Coast Album to follow this up with, I would say Safe n' Sound by DJ Quik, that was released around the same time.
100%...I think his life issues caught up with him, including the circus atmosphere at DeathRow Records, the Foxxy Brown toxic relationship, and his challenges with alcoholism.
One of my favorite albums of all time can listen from beginning to end
Crazy album 🔥🔥
Yooo....this album molded me a tad when i was young. I use to play this tape on repeat. Still know every word. Classic being a teen with those bangers.
Dre mixed the whole album. Shit sounds clean as hell
The Chronic
Doggystyle
Murder Was The Case
Regulate...G Funk Era
Dogg Food
All Eyez On Me
where is 2001?
Rhythmalism
Hey thanks for a great reaction, if you want another west coast classic try Operation Stackola by the Luniz. That album has so much more to offer than I Got 5 on it..
@@michaelhamer6841 why u wanna… playa hate on maaaayyyy
Great feedback and perception of the album. Appreciate it and this has garnered me to hit the "Subscribe" button officially.
DJ Pooh, who played Red from Friday, produced this song, did all the W Balls skits and did all the voices himself. Pooh's main work is production, he did other songs for this album as well as work with all artist from the West.
Daz is a higly underrsted producer... never gets the praise he deserves.. the G funk sound was far more sophisticated, far ahead than their east coast contemporaries..
This album and All Eyes On Me my favorite Death Row albums
This is probably in my top 3 albums ever. This was my 7th grade year. This tape never left the boom box
Kurupt Streets is a Mutha Album
I like that album that's my favorite album No Lie I think that album in Chronic 2001 they go hand in hand both of them is classic albums I pick streets is a mother
Kurupt went apeshit on Streets iz a Mutha!
Ice Cube "Amerikkkas Most Wanted" album. Lots of dope storytelling
This was riding when it came out...I was in Cali when it came out and you could of made a meme of Ahmad reactin with my face on it..Death row was running it....
This is my favorite album from Death Row it's just a masterpiece best album no skip I just love everything about the album ever since it first came out that second track that might be my favorite song but it's hard to even pick because if I f*** it's something about that bass line oh that beat I love Daz put his foot on this production a masterpiece
The dogg pound is Kurupt, Daz, Snoop dogg, and Nate dogg
You got to do murder the case soundtrack song Jodeci come into my room Daz and Devante from Jodeci produced a record which is my favorite song on that album and kurupt is rapping on it🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
When it dropped when I was in my teen my reaction was the same. It’s a classic no doubt
Waited for this one! Salute
Peace King since you are westbound you gotta do an album reaction to DJ Quik- Safe & Sound. West coast classic 🔥🔥🔥
All DJ QUIK'S albums are dope but Quik is for personal use it ain't for everyone... I would have him do some background work on Quik before dealing with a full DJ QUIK album..
hell yeah!
Great album
Idk if anybody has said it yet but the sample for “i don’t like to dream about getting paid” is Lionel Richie’s “love will find a way” great song btw
Soooo glad you finally did this and now you see why we kept spamming you!!! 😂 it should be illegal to go through life without this experience cause that's exactly what it is bro, a full experience
1995 😂 the Dogg Pound Doggy Food CD dropped and 8 Ball and MJG on top of the world CD dropped 🤔 only CDs I played until I heard that nigga name Mr Mike you need to check him out too another lyrical beast
Check the track of Kurupt and Inspectah deck and Pete rock.
That Big Pimpin2 is so smooth!!
That 1st line in New York New York is probably way doper than you realize. Denise Williams, an r&b singer had an album called Niecy back in the day, the big song on the album was called Gonna Take a Miracle...now go back and relisten to that line👊🏾
New York, New York wasn’t a diss song it was actually a song giving them props. They shot up the video shoot so that’s when they changed the plot in the video and Snoop was kicking down the buildings.
It wasn't a dis towards New York. It was a redo ( kinda) of an old Grandmaster Flash song called New York New York
Kurupt brought his East Coast flow to the West Coast. He may rep the west but he is from Philly… GO BIRDS 🦅
DAZ DILLINGER - RETALIATION REVENGE & GET BACK.. His solo album is cool... Gang Meeting is a dope song.
This was my album
Man this stayed on repeat back in the day!!!
For me Kurupt will be my all time top 1 forever. Very underappreciated, one of the best lyricist
Dr. Dre mixed most of this album, beats came out sounding real crisp and clean
@@4thQtrTrane Dre didn't mix this it was all Daz just like Dre did nothing on tupac all eyes on ke it was mostly Daz
Respectfully
All Eyes On Me mixing was mostly quik tho. @@CavinWebster
@@CavinWebsteryou are wrong! Dr Dre is the one who mixed this album. Yes, he was not involved in the production of beats on this album, but he is the one who mixed this whole project. Kurupt also stated that Dr Dre is the one who volunteered to mix it, and if you on Google you'll find the same thing. DJ Pooh only made 2 beats there which are New York New York & Smooth, then Daz produced the rest of the beats, so there you have it. Next time, please justify with facts.
@@CavinWebsterDre mixed the album. Daz has said it.
I’m hyped for this reaction!
Classic...DPGC
I love this damn album. I was like 14 when it came out and Death Row was on 🔥🔥🔥🔥
The song was dedicated to the East coast pioneer at first but Biggie called the radio station and told the New Yorkers they was being disrespected by having Snoop and the dogg pound in their city. So while they were filming the video down in Manhattan , some goons went to the video set and shot up the video shoot. So after that they felt disrespected and then turned the video into a diss song 🎶
6:35
RESPECT
"I know you're bobbin' your head, 'cause I can see ya"
I used to blast this album when I was in my teens whilst playing True Crime: Streets of LA haha
One of my favorite West Coast albums ever you gotta check out Safe + Sound by Dj Quik bruh 🔥🔥
Daz gets talked about his beat making skills but he is so slept on as a MC!
His cali bounce flow, Timing on the beat, Word play turns the beats into a vibe and imo he is better than Kurupt.
@@QTmodzProjects better than kurupt 😂😂😂
The Twinz was a vibe the 5 footaz had a moment
This came out when I was in high school, and it had a hold of me. This was an instant classic on the W/C. Everything about this album was perfect. It's a shame Kurupt let the drinking and ect get in the way of his talent. Daz made some good solo projects as well as Kurupt. Check out Kurupts' first solo double album it's hard as F. He did an East Coast side and a West Coast side.
We need a Blu & Exile- Below the Heavens album reaction. Some West Coast bangers and no skipper for sure.
This album is so damn underrated
This album is a rare gem
Brutal álbum…reacción al nuevo álbum
FINALLLY
The Jamaica guy name is prince ital joe, he was on Hail Mary as well
My favorite album as a kid
Great album! As far as the people who claim you don’t show love to your region without checking out your channel, a lot of those people are biased and don’t actually care about hip-hop outside of their city. That’s clear because you’ve reacted to a lot of great hip-hop from the west coast, the south, and the Midwest. These are the same people who will say that nobody cares about Jay-Z, Nas, or any other legendary New York hip-hop artists outside of New York and their opinions on hip-hop are irrelevant.
