Well I have not got it yet because I live in the UK but from what I've heard the best tracks are caught up, the genie , that funk interlude, Doggystyle and Fallin' Asleep On Death Row.
Also is The Root Of All Evil a full song or just a small outro??

I'm listening to my copy of the album right now (went through the storm of the century here in sacramento to get it lmfao) but I can't remeber the exact time but when I skimmed it copying the song names onto my itunes, the Root of All Evil was longer than 4 minutes so it probably is a song.

Already posted this in the other thread, but might as well consolodate things:

I bought this...it's pretty good.  You can tell a lot of the songs are just demos and premixes and stuff, but it's still neat to have them.   Some of the songs appear to be cut from Doggystyle, like "The Root Of All Evil" Outro, Eat a Dicc, and Doggystyle, so it's neat to hear those.  Doggystyle doesn't sound real crisp, but maybe that's the best they had to work with.  The liner said it was mixed by Justin "Coyote" Burdick  and mastered by Brian Gardner for whatever that's worth, so it doesn't appear to be the same guy that did the Chronic Relit ones. 

Got it at Best Buy for 9.99.  The 3 bonus tracks are "Quite Obvious" which sounds good and is produced by Soopafly.  The chorus is very similar to the song "Pop Lockin" which he ended up releasing on No Limit.  "Once Again" (also produced by Soopafly) is the same one that's been floating around the internet for years, but sounds a little better, there's a crisper snare drum in there or something.  "Got To Do Wrong" (produced by LT Hutton) is the same lyrics as the one that's been floating around the net and was on Smokefest, but the instrumental is different.  Snoop recycles quite a few verses on this release, but there are still some gems like "The Genie", "Keep It Real Dogg", "Caught Up" and of course "Doggystyle".  His "2pac dedication" is pretty weak, just reciting 2pac's song "Life's So Hard" with KCi and JoJo singing the chorus, who sounded pretty off key.  Kind of dissapointed in that song.

It's worth the 9.99.  The mixing isn't the best, but these songs span 5 years and were recorded at all different studios and who knows how well they were stored, etc.  So I think they made the best of what they had to work with.  A few of the songs say "producer unknown", so they must not have been stored/cataloged very well.  A few of the songs have the instrumentals louder than Snoop's voice and it's kind of hard to make out the lyrics, so that was kind of annoying.  But it is still neat to listen to these songs, brought me back to 95 all over again listening to that Death Row sound.  I'd rather have them to listen to in 'not the best' quality than to never hear them at all.  The CD inlay has a picture of the original reels of a bunch of old snoops songs, which is cool to see.

I don't even know why you post here man. All your text is unreadable because you choose to post it in red and you choose to post crap. There is only one person who can read your posts.
