I was thinking the same thing. I bumped Dove Shack "This Is The Shack" from beginning to end the other night, and the skits on that album are just awful. The music is good, but the skits are the worst I've ever heard on an album. It certainly diminishes the quality and integrity of the album as a whole. I'm surprised Warren G allowed them to fuck it up like that.Youre both right that album had some fucked up skits. Used correctly though skits can really tie an album together thematically. Death Certificate had a load of skits that only served to enhance the album as a wholeBut if you have to many it just interrupts the albums flow. for an album with let's say 14 songs then 2 or 3 is okay. Longer albums 4 maybe 5 but thats it. Of course it all depends on how long the skits are also. One reason i don't bump dogg food is becuase of all the skits thats tied in with the songs. because of that, I can't unmark them in Itunes. It's fucking annoying!! Some rappers just don't have a clue to put the skits in the right place.

The blood gang embraces Tupac as a member even if YOU dont.
I always thought Big Pun "Pakinamack" skit was funny, not the best skt ever but it still makes me laugh
warren g wasn't involved in the creation of this is the shack... he just produced the title track for his own album and they re-used it.but yeah skits can be dope and funny, and i'm amazed how usually some lowbrow/dumb rappers have sometimes hilarious skits. i prefer the skits on separate tracks, too. i hate tracks that have long intros like big's sky's the limit.

I thought the Dove Shack were signed to a deal with him the same way the Twinz were for their Conversation album. No?
