The production on 213 is actually quite solid, if you ask me...

I gotta disagree. It sounds like a Gotta Pay The Boss pt. 2.

late dis evening i went out to wal mart and bought it for like 15 99 (big rip off seeing how it was most likely cheaper at best buy) but im too far from a best buy so i bought it AND I LOVE IT...i dont know wat alll da bitching is about production being shitty....dis albums production is WAY better den paid the cost.....i love it but i woulda loved to see still fly NOT ON DA ALBUM....i didnt like it when i heard it a yr and half ago and still dont like it....dolla dolla bill shoulda replaced it....but oh well I LOVE DA ALBUM..dat wreck beat in the intro is INCREDIBLE....sounds like sum doggystyle smooth shyt....shoulda been a song str8 up....ps for sum reason the intro reminds me of 21 Jump Street from MWTC soundtrack

Mase is the Future:  man, some of the shit you say is ridiculous.  I like mase too man, but you are going a little overboard, its pathetic.  Again, mase' new album is dope, i am glad u feel it, but i got a feeiling you'd like it even if it was wack.  And the new 213 album is much better than mase's second lp, although that album had a few good cuts and is better than some think.

I dont mind the production on here, there are a couple standouts to say the least.  Hitek drops perhaps the hottest beat, that Appreciation is definitely some warren g type g funk,  So Fly is a tight beat despite missy having produced it (its not like she raps and ruins the song like the knoc song she was on),  Absolutely is a BANGER,  Run up on you or whatever its called is mad dope,  MLK is Battlecats best production in a while,   some of the other songs are alright, some are horrible (gangster click, lil girl)...................as for Snoop, he isnt rapping all slow and shit, he sounds pretty good, ive definitely heard him much worse, nate doesnt really shine like i thought he would, MAYBE ITS BECAUSE NATE IS OVEREXPOSED NOWADAYS AND I AM FINALLY GETTING A BIT SICK OF HIM.  I mean,  he is still incredible, but he never blows me away anymore.  AS for warren, he sounds pretty good, but i miss the old flow of his first two albums, not this jacked Dre-like flow he is using right now to try to become relevant in todays commercial rap market.   


As for dickriders, that is a term that is getting fucking played out.  VEry few of us so called snoop dickriders have said this album is great, most find it an enjoyable listen with obvious flaws.  Its the Snoop "haters" that sound pathetic, saying this album is as bad as Game is to be Sold, not told and shit like that.  Yeah, i am disappointed in this album, but albums nowadays are rarely complete and solid all the way through, and that is why albums like Kanye's and Masta Ace's are so appreciated in my mind.

nice post dawg, that's pretty much exactly how im feelin about the album... I laugh at some of the people on here that try to rip up the album, just hoping it may piss off a few of the fans.

anywayz, tight album, one of the top 5 this year easy...
