the west coast disc is actually great... not classic, but a buncha bangers on there from top 2 bottom the east coast disc is what dragged it down tbh streetz iz a mutha was his definitive classic tho, and that came out on the same label, so he was clearly capable even witout death row
the East Coast disc suffered because of weak guest spots and production...Buckshot and Nore were probably the 2 exceptions...I mean it was a high profile release and he could not even get a throwaway Primo or Pete Rock beat?Kurupt was actually spitting hard on there, Its A Set Up and Game are vintage Kurupt
HIS SOLO DEBUT SHOULDA BEEN FULLA SONGS LIKE UP DOWN N AROUND
He had that nice joint at the time with Pete Rock. The one where they are riding race cars in the music video. Too bad, him and Pete Rock couldn't have shared that song for both of their albums. That was desperately needed for the East Coast disc.I don't remember Buckshot coming nice, and "It's A Set Up" had a video didn't it? But I never remember seeing it on. I have to go back and check it. "Game" I remember having a nice beat and concept but Kurupt coming weak on.. I'll go back and listen to all those maybe I missed something
I like both discs, but you could definitely turn it into just one disc and maybe add "Story To Tell" with Snoop (that was supposed to be on the album) as a bonus on there.
