bitchez dont buy it then. you the ones missing out.you panty-sniffers bitch about east and south LAUGHING at west and then you wont even support the legends
In my opinion, all you have to do is look at the title "In the Mid-Nite Hour" to see what the vibe of the album is going to be. With a title like that, you know a lot of it is going to be laid back love ballads... but in all honesty... good record... and well rounded.He has tracks on that thing that are going to appeal to mainstream radio fans ("Make It Do What It Do" and "Yessir")... he has tracks that sound like they'd fit right in to Return of the Regulator ("Walk these Streets", "Guerilla Pimpin'"), he has laid back, west coast flavored tracks that fit into the famous west coast mold ("Weed Song", "PYT," "In The Mid-Nite Hour,") and he has more reflective tracks about dealing with real shit ("I Need A Light," "Get You Down,") etc. This isn't to mention a good array of guests from Snoop, Ice Cube, B-Real, Mike Jones, Nate Dogg, Bishop Lamonte, etc.I can understand people having a problem with this record... it sounds like Warren's a little caught between styles here... there are times when it seems like Snoop is rubbing off on him... other times where he's trying to put out that laid back shit that he used to... and still other times where's he's trying to go the route of Dr. Dre...There's so many different styles here that you're either going to love it or hate it... that I understand... he doesn't really stick to any formula like he has in the past... and yes, there are a handful too many love songs on here... but as long as the production's nice I don't mind.It's not a classic... but shit... I'd still give it 4 out of 5... better than Mack 10, Kurupt, and right on par with DJ Quik.I just bought the cd today, by the way.
I hope Warren or his lawyers read this. Maybe they'll stop and realize they just lost a whole shitload of sales because now the people who haven't heard it have to rely on people who have but may or may not have the same taste in music. I'm not even gonna download it from mIRC to preview it. Warren doesn't deserve my money.

Warren doesn't deserve my money.That's fuck'd up....as I said in another topic, artists and companies would never understand or believe that bootlegging could help them in any ways, and the only reason that I know it can help it in a FEW small ways is because I use the internet. Nobody wants their shot bootlegged, it never sounds like a good thing, and nobody would EVER say "yeah dubcc, let people download my shit for free so that 10,000 people can get it free". So don't knock him for that, I'd be the same way if I didn't know how the internet worked at that level

Sly Boogy told DubCC not to let anyone bootleg his album, and although I didn't really like that, I still bought the album. He didn't need to bring lawyers into it, just the trust that his album wouldn't be bootlegged. I completely understand most artists don't want their music out there for the taking. The guy I work with is exactly like that, so when I get copies of his work, I don't give it to people unless I get his okay. It's just the fact that Warren had to get all bitch about the situation.
