Realest & Top Dogg were both on 'Gang Related' -- people talked about them and knew who they were who were heavy fans and readers of The Source.
The Row website had a lot of traffic, the interviews were hyped, the "Witness Tha Realest" "Every Dogg Has Its Day" albums were hyped as the new Death Row
They had compilation albums (Chronic 2000, TGFR, Dysfunktional Family OST, etc.)
People paid attention to the leaks of "Can't Mobb Deep" "Hotel Talk [Everything is Everything]", "Cindafella", "Goin Back to Cali," "All About U" video appearance had a lot of people talking about the 'new Death Row' and people were hyping Suge coming out of jail.
-- I always heard Crooked recorded for the self-titled "Young Doobie" album

I’m calling bullshit on this one. For starters, they weren’t even recording as “Realest” and “Top Dogg” yet. They were Tenkamenin and YGD. And YGD wasn’t even on most versions. Your Source story is as bullshit as a lot of the other things you claimed to have read, seen, and heard on these forums. One of the first mentions of Realest in The Source was as a gunshot victim in the coverage of the shooting that killed Kurupt’s bodyguard in 1999. They mistakenly called him “Realness” as did a lot of other media outlets who reported on the story.

I don’t ever recall them mentioning an official name for a Top Dogg album. There was one interview with Realest that came out after TG4R where he briefly mentioned an album but there was never serious hype. They also interviewed Swoop G and a couple other people.Quote from: love33 on April 10, 2017, 01:40:45 AMThey had compilation albums (Chronic 2000, TGFR, Dysfunktional Family OST, etc.) Nope. Try again. Top Dogg was only on Chronic 2000. Realest was moved to an “artist in development” shortly after TGFR flopped. Neither one of them was on Dysfunktional Family OST.

By people, you mean you and a handful of other hardcore fans. Far from the majority. Quote from: love33 on April 10, 2017, 01:40:45 AM-- I always heard Crooked recorded for the self-titled "Young Doobie" album Yeah, just like you “heard” Daz recorded his own version of Caught Up in the Game while at Death Row. You didn’t hear anything. You’re making it up to try and build credibility for another fake rumor you’re trying to start.

This looks like this was a show booked by the club or an entertainment group representing it. This isn’t the same as an artist actually doing his own show. He’s essentially being paid by a promoter to do the gig.
I have the CD where they are both in the credits -- they are in the insert -- I'm surprised you don't know this and would call me out.
I never talked about their monkiers, I said they were on the album, which I am 100% Correct
This was Obvious to ANY fan that Top Dogg's diss track was buzzing -- it was even talked about as "Notorious BIG is gone and Death Row is pushing a diss track" convo.
On a lesser note, The Chocolate Bandit has a track called "Whatz Da Deal" that's also on the album and it's in the credits!
Daz was the LEAD PRODUCER when Doobie recorded that track they were both at Death Row together, and being the Lead Producer, like Cold187um said when he had the role, he said he knew every artist, their style, and every track that was flowing through that studio.
I have tons of Top Dogg tracks, and he was supposed to be the main act (Suge put him on Dr. Dre tracks/beats, 2Pac videos on MTV, Suge put him against Snoop with Cindafella, etc.) -- He recorded for TGFR but it didn't make the album ("Hatin U" is a great track for you to lookup),
Yes, that happened, and The Source and MTV published it and then the feds raided the building on Wilshire Blvd, and Kurupt's bodyguard was shot.
This was around the time Death Row was trying to sign DMX
Tha Realest is one of the main artists on Chronic 2000, he's on 7 tracks!
Realest recorded tracks with Daz where Daz talks about "Dat Nigga Daz & Tha Realest comin way too RAW, you ain't known? Dat Nigga Daz & Tha Realestt...WE just way too Real -- We right here -- You want some of this? Dat Nigga Daz & Tha Realest!! Beeeyatch!"
Daz helped Realest with his porn video "Because of U Girl" (you prob saw it on Death Row Uncut with all the whores in the video)
Every time I read your posts, it's starting to sound like I'm watching 'Fake News CNN'!
Your diss to Doobie & Tha Realest: they were on the Death Row Records together, arguably the greatest most well known Gangsta Rap label of all time -- they were on the MTV commercial for Chronic 2000
And there are several videos/songs/interviews where Tupac is shouting out Dre and Snoop like they are all one big happy family and then come to find out, at the time, most of these were filmed, they didn’t even like each other. Music business is image. Suge wanted to portray his label as being like a family. Quote from: love33 on April 14, 2017, 12:04:08 AMDaz helped Realest with his porn video "Because of U Girl" (you prob saw it on Death Row Uncut with all the whores in the video)Other way around. “Because Of You Girl” is a Dogg Pound song FEATURING Tha Realest.
Did you ever think they WERE cool with each other, but got pissed off at each other internally like how brother's fight?
Suge would disagree and say EVERYTHING that came out of his label is 100% Authentic -- he would say that today (as Death Row was known for calling other labels out for being fakes) -- Death Row was known as being an AUTHENTIC Gangsta Rap label
There were definitely a lot of serious dudes over at Death Row, including Suge, but “100% authentic gangsta rap” is something he is pushing to sell to naïve cats like you who aren’t bright enough to read between the lines.
If you believe that everything that came out of that label was 100% authentic because Suge said so, how do you account for Suge saying that the guy they put out as their first artist was never a gangster, never from Compton, and didn’t do anything of the things he said on his records.
Snoop was pretending to be a Blood and was called “Snoop Dooper”? Kurupt was part of a group with two girls?
and spending your free time convinced that everybody on this label sends each other Christmas cards and hangs out all the time.
Can we put this in the West Coast Classics forum at this point? It's turned into some weird fantasy about the 90's.
You people actually think that Snoop wanted to claim Blood before "The Chronic" came out just because Suge Knight and some of his homeboys said that?
Quote from: Okka on April 25, 2017, 07:24:11 AMYou people actually think that Snoop wanted to claim Blood before "The Chronic" came out just because Suge Knight and some of his homeboys said that? Precisely. Suge said a lot of bullshit but our boy, love33, tends to eat it up. Said Snoop was claiming Blood, Dre told him he wanted to be white, Dre admitted to being gay in a Death Row meeting, Pac had a version of "Hit Em Up" dissing Snoop, and many other wild stories.
