This album here is an example of what I worry about for the next few years with the West coast.....personally, there were a few songs on Warren's album that definitely attempted to be "Top 40" such as Do what it do, and Yessir, but those songs are decent to me at least. Aside from that, this album sounds similar to his last two in some spots, and there is nothing really watered down or overly-commercial about it. But it seems like many west coast fans only like west coast albums when they have that old school feel...and when albums do have that feel, most people outside the west don't get into it. It's hard as hell to bridge that gap and make music that west coast fans appreciate but that still has an effect on other coasts. Many people complained about 213 not havin Warren G production, but I'm sure that most of them would prefer the 213 production over the production on this Warren G album even though they wouldn't admit it. Thing is, people like Warren are damn near stuck in their options...because if he dropped an album that sounded like it was straight from the G-Funk 94 era, people might like the beats but say "it was nothing at all groundbreaking, and it sounds like shit we've heard a million times so I couldn't get into it much" or "it sounds outdated as hell". But if he tries to make his music sound more modern, he'll still receive hate, especially if his modern music isn't groundbreaking or doper than most hot producers who are out now.
Yeah, he needs to like.. go away . His album was like listening to elevator music...Especially the Nate Dogg tack..It sounded like a 213 leftover.
it's because its a piece of junk... only had like 3 or 4 good songs on it... nothing special at all.
If yall want to call Warren a legend when he released one great record, I'm not going to stop you. In my eyes, he's not a legend. He had 1 classic record more than 10 years ago.

People call biggie the greatest rapper of all time and he only made one great record.Personally I think Warren was cool in his time, but this record aint worth my money. Its cool, got a nice laid back feel to it and i'm sure a lot of yall will like it but it aint gonna get my 15 and change.
Can't stop supporting the nigga that gave me 4 classics (yes, sgv, classics) in a row.
i told yall this album iz better than trauma... nothing to corny on it aside from a few r and b hooks.... the wholoe album has sweet sweet bass to satisfy my subs (asside from "make do what it do"track 3, i guess they forgot to throw bass on this 1)... no weird sound effects going off, embarising me at stop lights... good album (not classic though, but buy it 4 ur car, and play it till it melts)...
