DAZ DILLINGER - RETALIATION, REVENGE & GETBACK 2 (Official Discussion)

Some of the verses were recorded ages ago, some recent. The MJ sample does sound kinda off, as well as the Prince Ital Joe song on the album, it sound off to me but will give it another listen.

The second Kurupt track is exactly why you want Dogg Food 2 on Death Row. What a terrible song. They need someone overseeing the project to ensure crap like that gets left on the cutting room floor where it belongs.

Yeah just compare the Kurupt we hear on the “N-Mates” track to the Kurupt we hear second time around.

Story of his post-Death Row career, he can sound like prime Rakim or like Silk-The-Shocker

so true

this goes all the way back to '98 with the "Kuruption!" album

Yeah that’s why I said post-Death Row — the Kuruption album was when he moved to Antra/A&M and started showing inconsistency

The album is mixed so bad, the bass is way to loud and some good songs are ruined by the mixing

thats why i aint understand how can anybody compare to king maker?

[dan9700]

beats are better but ruined by the mix, xzibits album is just boring and no reply value

[D-TalkX]

Was about to ask you this.. thanks for clarify.

I actually heard back from Rage on this years ago. She said everything was completely up to Daz and that he decides when/if it will come out or be completed. She just signs on when she's ready.

I can't recall if I'm imagining this, but I thought I heard they had 6 or 7 songs completed and were planning to finish the album at some point.

Kingmaker blows this out the water.

You think Snoop is going to quality control Dogg Food 2?  Snoop has so many garbage tracks on his own albums.  He needed Dre to do his quality control.  Whether Dogg Food 2 is on Death Row or Daz's label, the song selection isn't going to be any better. 

I actually don't mind to be honest.  We all have different tastes.  Let them release a 21 track album, and i'll pick my favorite 10 or 11 tracks and make a great album out of it and trash the rest.  I've been doing that for years with both Snoop and Daz's albums.  Works great.  I'd rather i pick out what songs i think are good than have Snoop or Daz only release 10 track LPs and have all the songs be terrible.  I made a classic one disc Dazamataz album taking the best songs from both discs.  I'm afraid if Daz would've narrowed it down to one disc, he wouldn't have picked the same tracks I would have, so this works great.

I get your point about Snoop quality control on his own albums but WAWG was a really good album and I can't help but feel that it would've been much worse if Daz was solely in charge.

I agree. WAWG is the best DPG album in a very long time. While snoop isn't good at quality control, I think him overseeing projects forces the other rappers/producers to try harder if that makes sense. They actually talked about it in interviews when promoting WAWG.

So you have to spend your money on an album then go back and basically executive produce it and/or a&r it after the fact? That's a lil too much.

Yup. Snoop also brought in a good team of mainstream'ish producers and features.

But then ruins it with poor mixing/mastering, songs clearly louder than others. Makes for a bad listen. It’s a shame because it had potential to be a dope ass album. Also, ever time Snoop is overseeing, it basically becomes a Snoop album with Daz and Kurupt vocals. Meaning, it would be songs and producers Snoop would have picked for his own albums. Keeps Daz off the production when the dynamics of Dogg Pound was Kurupt ripping the mic over Daz beats with Daz spittin alongside him. Same thing with the 213 project, how was that not produced by Warren G?
