i would take R.A.W. over RR&GB
Quote from: D~Nice on October 04, 2007, 10:21:55 PMDecided to try my hand at giving my 2 cents on some artist's discographies. I will start with Daz, who has ALOT of albums but I am only going to focus on the solo ones. Feel free to drop comments. Daz Dillinger - Retaliation, Revenge And Getback: Does not get much better than this one. More of a compilation but Daz did appear on each track. Man too many favorites to name. Our Daily Bread- one of the dopest Dogg Pound cuts IMO. Kurupt was on this album. I like how Daz got so many west coast heavyweights on 1 album. The beats are insane on this, one of his best if not the best. Daz's beatmaking at it's finest solo wise.Daz Dillinger - R.A.W.: If RR&GB is not his best to most because of all the guests, this one solo wise is probably his finest. Really Daz at his best indie wise. The quality of the beats and the rhymes was really top notch. Street Gangs, One Nine 99, Who's Knockin At My Door, RAW, It'z All About The Money, My System. This album is PERFECT in a system. Lyrically Daz's flow is alot more forceful on this then the first one. Super Cuz was classic on here.Daz Dillinger - This is the Life I Lead: If you like the production on D&YG, you will probably be a fan of this one. Lyrically Daz slipped a bit from RAW, but the co production from Mike Dean is the real highlight. The title track, Keep It Gangsta, and a few other tracks were bangin.Daz Dillinger - DPGC: U Know What Im Throwin' Up: This album gets alot of heat for all the Snoop interludes, but I actually liked them. We only had to wait 4 or 5 years since the last time they worked together. This was the first album were Daz had no role in the production of the album beatwise. Soopafly did some of his best beats for this album along with Fred Wreck, Meech, Quaze and Shon Don. Lyrically Daz recycled lyrics WAY too much. That and the Kurupt disses wore on my nerves. Snoop absolutely MURDERED his guest appearances. But the highlight was definitely Soopa's beats. I'll Beatcho Ass, the remix, I Got That Fire, Nuthin But A Gangsta Party 2, Dat Gangsta Shit and a few more were bangers.Daz Dillinger - I got Love in these Streets: Just basically a collection of unreleased tracks. I really could not get into this oneDaz Dillinger - Tha Dogg Pound Gangsta LP: This album a always thought it was and still is slept on. Daz sounded like he took his time on this album, his flow was on point from start to finish. Beats were dope, I like the Clinton samples and the heavy g-funk influences. One of my personal favorites from him and NO guest rappers. My Mama Said he KILLED that song. Same with Tha Dogg Pound Gangsta.Daz Dillinger - Gangsta Crunk: Weak attempt by Daz to duplicate the Crunk sound. This album was a mess IMO.Daz Dillinger - So So Gangsta: I really feel like Daz is one of the dopest producers depending on the studio. This sound wise is probably the closest Daz came to the 1st one. The beats were knockin throughout this album. JD and Daz made a good team, and No I.D., Scott Storch also dropped gems. Money On My Mind gets CONSTANT play from me along with Strizap, Rat-A-Tat-Tat, Thang On My Hip, Weekend. The cuts that also did not make the album were nice also. If they were added, I would probably score it a little higher.So for me to rank them I would sayRR&GBRAWTDPGLPSSGDPGCYKWITUTITLILIGLITSGCDaz lyrically really suffers at times from recyling his lyrics. At times his rhymes just sound thrown together. That is probably due to him putting so much material out. But when he is focused he brings nothing but fire. It's good to see him producing more now on projects. Gangsta Party looks like it might be promising also. Overall not a bad catalog.Up next, Cypress Hill and XzibitWell,I agree with most of it. I donīt have Gangster crunk and have never heard it,not sure if I want to after your review.Iīm not a big Daz (solo) fan,but I do check for him. He can come with heat,so I ainīt writting him off.Thereīs only three Daz records I give a regular spin,the rest well......Daz Dillinger - Retaliation, Revenge And GetbackDaz Dillinger - R.A.WDaz Dillinger - DPGC: U Know What Im Throwin' UpSo whereīs Tanji? You and D-Nice is the convo tag team of Dubcc.
