How Many Mics Did Dogg Food & Doggystyle Get?!?

[Mr_Loc]

remember when Made Men's cd was supposed to get 3.5 and the editor added another mic on cuz they payed him or sumthin?

oh yea, The Source's recent crimes against the west:
Dj Quik - Balance & Options - 3 mics
Chico & Coolwadda - Wild N Tha West - 3.5
DPG - Dillinger & Gotti - 3.5
X-Raided - Unforgiven - 2.5

fuck the source!

[Hittman]

quik should have got 5.5/5

[Don Jacob]

is the source still for sale...cuz ice t could easily buy that magazine and make it GANGSTA in more ways than one

[Pimplegionär]

quik got 4 1/2 mics for balance & options.
on the front of my cd there is a sticker that says 4 1/2 from the source, "...quik impresses with funkalistic vibes..."
or something like that.

[Mr_Loc]

i have the issue right here dog, it got 3. rhythmalism got 4.

[Hittman]

that shit should have got 5

[jrfloyd76]

i have both mags

doggystyle- 4 mics
doggfood- 3 1/2 mics
i feel doggystye should have gotten 5 mics and doggfood should have gotten 4 1/2 mics.

[techniec]

but fuck the source, they gave beenie and black rob 4.5 and those two albums, cant even be in the same neighbourhood as doggystyle

[lil_song]

Mr. Loc, the editor of the source manages the made men and put the extra mic there. I heard this move caused writers for the source to quit because no one agreed that they deserved 4.5 mics.

Rolling Stone (5/13/99, p.73) - Included in Rolling Stone's "Essential Recordings of the 90's."
Rolling Stone (1/27/94, p.51) - 4 Stars - Excellent - "...DOGGYSTYLE is filled with verbal and vocal feats that meet its three-mile-high expectations....DOGGYSTYLE speeds through 55 minutes of constant talk as if on a suicide hot line...."

Musician (2/94, p.69) - "...[DOGGYSTYLE] succeeds on its own terms ...[Snoop's] the gangsta Marvin Gaye of Dr. Dre's Motown. It's the clever interplay of `hard' and `soft' which keeps some of these tracks alive; sweet harmonies blossom in the middle of brutal rhythm tracks...a funky, multifaceted album...."

Vibe (2/94, p.103) - "...Snoop is good, no doubt about it. His cool, lazy drawl is unique, evocative, rhythmically complex--the perfect foil for Dre's thick, tense beats...The big story on THE CHRONIC was Snoop stealing Dre's thunder; on DOGGYSTYLE, Dre snatches it back...."

The Source (2/94, p.67) - "...[Snoop] emerges as an MC who lives up to all of his advance hype...."

Q Magazine (2/94, p.95) - 3 Stars - Good - "...when this funky/sleazy trick works, it is the very best that modern pop has to offer..."

New Musical Express (12/4/93, p.26) - "...Masterminded by Dr. Dre's faultless production, DOGGYSTYLE is both a wonderfully comic splurge of Parliament funking and barely suppressed violence..."

Melody Maker (12/11/93, p.28) - "...The music is sumptuous, soulful and genuinely menacing....Snoop Dogg is the real McCoy...."

Entertainment Weekly (12/10/93, pp.74-75) - "...[DOGGYSTYLE] is the most limber, low-rider gangsta album to date...it's easy to be impressed one moment and appalled the next..." - Rating: B-

i have both mags

doggystyle- 4 mics
doggfood- 3 1/2 mics
i feel doggystye should have gotten 5 mics and doggfood should have gotten 4 1/2 mics.

well if doggystyle got 4 ,, then all the snoop album are classic in a way..except for da game who got 3.5.. well seem like topp dogg and tha last meal ( doggfather hmmmmmmm) are classic n i think so i still have that feeling u know when u just bought it...yeahhhhhh

[Top-Dogg2001]

Beanie's first album was pretty good. It was a very strong debut. However, I KNOW that his new album shouldn't have gotten 4 mics. That is straighht bullshit. I've heard a bunch of other albums that they gave 3 and a half mics to, and those are better then this. It's really rediculous giving him 4 mics considering talib kweli aand hitek's cd was ages better then this shit and it got only 4 mics.

doggz , we don't judge an album by critics cause if we do so , well none will be classics,, the only one album i saw that had a classic mark 5/5 was outkast the album b4 skantonia i think, don't remeber the name , sorry,well to judge an album we got to say so,, the album had to or change the game or have a big impact or sell a lot ....naw mean .. critic is bullshit pleezbaleevit.. the source /vibe/xxl/ every fuckin dawm mag
