How did Dogg Food do in sales?

Does anyone else remember their review in the source?  I think the source only gave them 2 mics and said the album suffered cause Dre was only the executive producer.  Kurupt mentioned it on one of the songs on Doggfather.

Only 2 mics It's at least a 4 mic album. I guess they took NY, NY to heart

i'm all about droppin' bombs
and possessing the deadliest rhymes that the mind can design
so let's let bygone's be bygones, aim and shoot
and mash with your boys if your down for making loot
cuz if not, when the heat gets hot, you get scorched
you're caught up like being in court fighting divorce
now i'm forced, to take a sneak peek through the source
of course is not revealin', we sold two million
willingly we survive, willingly we strive
we all multiply, dogg pound til' i die

kurupt was so raw back in the day.  that was '97 or so, and the lyrics were fire.

Personally, I remember not really feeling that record much when it came out - to me, Daz wasn't nearly as good a producer as Dre, and Kurupt wasn't that good a lyricist.  It wasn't until many years later that I finally listened to "Dogg Food" again and appreciated it more.  It's still overrated, IMO...it's not really what I'd call a "classic".

dogg food was really the first death row album that got away from that g-funk sound.  alot of people wanted more g-funk at the time.  this was at a point where the east coast had started to dominate; then dogg food dropped.  i always thought it had a cross over sound to it.

i don't even feel like death row was 100% behind it because right after dogg food dropped; it was like two months and then pac got out and was working on his album and that was where all the hype and attention was.  dogg pounds attention and hype were immediately stolen by pac.

and rage and kurupt were the dopest two lyricists on tha row.  kurupt just rips it.  i feel like kurupt doesn't have the charisma that a snoop or a pac had, because he flows too well and just flowed.  but kurupt was dope.
