the Battlecat productions are tight. the hyped producers made a goog job (Kanye West, Hi-Tek). some good ol' funk ("Gotta Find a Way", "Joysticc"). Some good surprises ("Absolutely", "Appreciation"). I would say a few bad tracks ("213 tha Gangsta Clicc", "Mary Jane") a bad choice for a 1st single ("Groupie Luv"). But above all, a lack of West Coast feeling : a real Fred Wreck production. How come Warren didn't even make one track ?!? and just one Dre production for a classic song. "Still got love for the streets, repping 213 (fo life)" Still D.R.E.

I didn't think it was THAT bad, it was just 10 years too late. Warren's passed his prime. Snoop is nearing his time to bow out. Nate Dogg needs to ONLY do hooks.

I think its a pretty good cd. Its a good album to listen to while driving around town;granted there are skipable tracks but overall its solid. My favourites would have to be MLK,213 the gangsta clic,Absolutely and She wasnt feelin me.

Dont get me wrong,if they had some more westcoast production (fredwreck,warren g,dj quik,supafly and dre) then it would've been insane. Still good for a listen though

The best thing Nate EVER did was his G-Funk Classics records, which was both singing and rapping.....

i woz disappointed wit the album waited for so long and for it to be garbage
Hittman is not a real person. He was a computer program generated by Dr. Dre and Mel Man back in the mid 90's. When Dre started treating Mel-Man like shit, Mel infiltrated the computer and put a virus in the hittman program

I think the album was fuckin dope, and they should've been releasin "213 Tha Gangsta Clicc" or "MLK" as theit 1st single...

There wasn't much 'single' potential on the album IMO, but if they had to go with one I would have chosen ''Twist Ya Body''. Good party track, simplistic sing-song chorus, and a decnet beat from Hi-Tek, whose name is becoming well known among rap fans. Its the kind of commercial song I could have seen blowing up had they given it the chance. Other than that, I only realised how dope ''Dolla Dolla Bill'' was after they removed it as first single and took it off the CD completely. That would have been an okay choice.
