imo Dre must've. Daz hasn't made beats like that since.
Everybody at DeathRow was working together from 93-96. It was probably just like they said in the credits with Dre (Maybe/probably) adding a few touches here n there (which is part of the job of a Engineer/Mixer btw). People stop imagining shit and stop talking about albums 15 years old for jesus sakes. It was credited in the Re-Mastered version and OG Version, leave it at that. Yeah some of the tracks sound Dr. Dre-like but what WestCoast music since 2004 hasn't sounded like a Dr. Dre beat? Everybody from Nipsey Hussle to Mac Shawn has used a Dre-inspired sounding beat which is most likely what Daz & Soopa and all of them did (including Dre, if u get what i'm saying). Dr. Dre would've taken credit or cash under tha table (and we'll never hear of it) if it was like that. No need to carry on. Next topic.... *bettr than anything on DoggFood. This whole album is slightly above DoggFood.

The argument about beats sounding more polished, layered and complex could be said about every producer who worked on records for Death Row back from 92-97. Back then they had mulit-million dollar studios to work in (for free), a plethora of studio hands, junior producers, recording engineers, mixing engineers and musicians to assist them (for free), some of the most creative and talented producers in the game stumbling into their studio sessions to co-produce or otherwise contribute to their ideas etc, etc. In addition to all that they had the immense pressure of creating music for a label that was dominating the West Coast market at the time. Now a'days Daz makes music alone in his bedroom on his computer using Reason...a program that costs $300 bucks. So you can understand why the music sounds different. As far as Daz's production methods are concerned, Mike Dean said that on the Dillinger and Young Gotti album all the records Daz gave him to work on just had the drums and vocals, maybe a hook or two, and he had to create the play the synths and keys. Which is consistent with what we knew of people like Soopafly's role which was to pay the keys on all Daz's stuff. It's the same thing Dre did and still does today with people like Mike Elizondo, Mauricio Iragorri, Dawaun Parker, Scott Storch, JT. Rotem et al. or whoever. I think on Dogg Food Daz conceptualized a lot of the records and through the help of people like Soopafly, Emanuel "Porkchop" Dean, Dave Swang, Overdose and all the musicians (see Ricardo Rouse, Carl "Butch" Small etc) and a half-dozen or so recording/mixing engineers... helped Daz REALIZE the records and made them what they were. But there is absolutely no doubt in my mind if you dropped the Daz of 2009 in a 3 million dollar recording studio with a dozen people in it to help produce, play keys, bass and mix just like Dre has, then he could bang out another RR&GB easily.

Talk about somethin' more new, DoggFood isn't all that great compared to more recenter records (post-2000)

Sticky Figaz debut album was definitely an overlooked near classic and the original version (which played out like a movie with 30+ tracks) was even better
