Title: The D.O.C. - No One Can Do It Better
Post by: That_Cracka_J on June 24, 2002, 03:25:14 PM
The D.O.C. – No One can do It Better

1. It’s funky enough…Perfect production.  From 1989 but still sounds great.  D.O.C.’s flow is untouchable.  Catchy hook.  5/5
2. Mind blowin’…Dope beat matched with a dope flow.  Nice hook.  4/5
3. Lend me an ear…The beat is too busy and fast for me here.  His flow is still on point though.  3/5
4. Comm. Blues…skit
5. Let the bass go…Slow, laidback quality production.  D.O.C. burns the track up with a tight ass flow.  4/5
6. Beautiful but deadly…Production is a mix of rock and rap.  Hardcore beat sounds great with D.O.C.’s great lyrics.  4/5
7. The D.O.C. & the doctor…Simple beat, but tight as hell.  It’s laidback which goes well with the lyrics.  Chorus is a great touch.  4/5
8. No one can do it better…A+ production.  Tight gangsta beat.  D.O.C. flow is perfect.  5/5
9. Whirlwind pyramid…The beat is too fast for my taste.  Flow is still dope.  3/5
10.   Comm. 2…skit
11.   The formula…Remarkable production matched with an amazing flow and delivery.  Chorus sounds great.  Dre adds his two cents by saying “It’s the formula”, which sounds dope as hell.  5/5
12.   Portrait of a masterpiece…Another uptempo beat.  Decent flow, but I don’t like the production.  3/5
13.   The grand finale’…A+ production.  N.W.A. appears on the track and everybody lays down a perfect verse.  5/5

OVERALL…9.5/10

Nearly flawless album.  With the exception of the few “uptempo” tracks, the whole album is a true masterpiece.  The CD came out in 1989, but it still sounds great by today’s standards.  Dr. Dre’s production was totally amazing throughout the album and D.O.C.’s lyrics and delivery is purely untouchable here.  Classic.

Yeah, this record is a true gem. It's really a shame Dre doesn't produce whole albums anymore.

The D.O.C is my fav artist off the west.
His flow is amazing. And Dr.Dre beats make them even better.
Should've been a full N.W.A member, would've had waaay more sucess.

One of the top albums ever. Nothing can compare to the combo of Dre's best production (IMO) & The D.O.C's pure smoothness on the mic.

This album is a "must own" for any hip hop head. DOC was ahead of his time. He kind of reminds me of Lord Finesse, both should have blown up much bigger than they did considering their talent.

^^^That makes a lot of since. I liked the single or Lend Me an Ear as best track. I just heard this album a few weeks ago. A 5 Mic classic and is truly an amazing album as far as West Coast produced albums go. He's from TEXAS I almost forget but Dre did the album. Threadstarter congrats for doing a terrible rating, heh man said 9.5/10 when he has songs rated 3.5 and mostly 4s. Heh haha.

sorry for this old bump, but i see your point with the production.

but those uptempo beats are perfect for that D.O.C. flow imo 8)
