California Vacation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
« on: October 30, 2006, 05:53:44 PM »
Wow, best westcoast song in a long ass time.  Has that true classic westcoast feel, even if its not produced by a westcoast producer.  Xzibit sounds incredible, Snoop kills it, the beat is RIDICULOUS (is that g-funk whistle the same one used in Black Superman?), the hook is TIGHT, in fact the worst part  of the song is the Game!!!  However, you gots to give him credit, he puts together dope songs, picks dope beats. 

Cali Vacation BY FAR my favourite of  the album.................well, besides title track.  What ya'll think of this Cali Vacation song?

I just started listening now.  This could be a new anthem for California.  A video would be cool.  And the funky worm synth never gets old no matter how many times I hear it.

Yeah that track goes hard. I was surprised to see Xzibit on the album, but I'm glad that those 2 are working together. DPG is on the album too. Game really held the West down on this album.

Damn, I can't wait to get there. I love that classic west coast sound (and everyone talkin' like dis is 1 of dem). The last "cali anthem" I would say was Knoc-turn'al's What We Do with X, Warren G & Nate Dogg. That 1 was dope as fuck. I'm on track #8 now. Can't wait man.

Tight ass song - real west coast feel to it. I said it in the other thread...this sounds like the 2006 update to G-Funk. Snoop and X came tight. It's especially interesting since Snoop, X, and Game are all west coast cats that were backed by Dre during different eras.

Wish I liked it as much as you guys do. Snoop and X come off good, beat is average, Game is below average (as expected).

I feel like California Vacation is gettin 2 much hype. I was expecting alot more (based on how people talked). Beat is average, Game is average, and Snoop & X kill it. Eveyr1 talking bout this bein a westcoast anthem. I honestly think "Bang" is better (which also Feat. Game rapping along 2 westcoast rappers). Beat is dope as fuck on that 1.

LOL, ain't no whistle, it's a high-pitch synthesizer.  But yeah, it's the same sample on both songs - "Funky Worm" by the Ohio Players.

I like this one, too.

If you're gonna choose a Knoc song, at least make it "L.A. Night & Day" or whatever that shit was called.

this song could blow up the same way "New York" did for Ja Rule.  Except this song >>>>>>>>>>> "new york"

Doubt it. Here's why:

Kiss was fresh off the hype of "Why." Fat Joe was fresh off the hype of "Lean Back."

Snoop is riding a lukewarm first single in "Vato." Xzibit is finding no success with his current album. They're not really the names that are grabbing people right now.

To release "California Vacation" as a national single, we'd have to see the next Game single blow up in a major way. Otherwise, nobody outside of Los Angeles would want to hear that shit.

best beat of the album...i dont know how much west coast sounding it could get, maybe if dre produced it?   :P

but if the hook was a little more appealing to more conservative listners, this would have dominated radio.  flows were nothing special, the beat makes this song, imo.


Pick up 2 gats like Riley with a full 16 clip, on some sick shit like Lynch, while rippin a bitch's clit with beyonce's mouth on the tip of my dick.
