Pretty sad list. Lot of no namers
-
Props on posting, but damn.. that's a low budget producer line-up.
If I was Warren, I would have killed the man in charge for this.. lol
-
Didn't know that half dead produced find a way, props for the credits man
-
Haven't seen a no namer line-up like that since I looked at the 04-05 Laker roster.
Sorry, I am a Knicks fan.
-
ah the cd isn't that bad...c'mon it isn't great but it's nice to throw on and hear the three together, peace.
-
But it coulda sorry SHOULDA been a classic it could have brought the West outta this slump & put it back on top.

-
Theres some nice beats, but its not classic, maybe 7/10
-
213 The Gangsta Clicc was produced by josef Leimberg ? Man that shit was tight ! One of the best songs on the album...
-
damn, not a single track produced by battlecat, soopafly, daz, warren g, dr dre or fred wreck (not including the intro).
it takes them all that time to finaly release a record and they half ass it
-
^^^^^^^
battlecat is on there.....people are saying he changed his name to B Sharp
-
oh...
i wonder why he'd change his name
-
the album is actually quite good .. b sharp sure doesn't sound like a "no namer" .. and if he is hes fuckin good.
"ups and downs" is hot.

seems like he's into producin now a lil bit..he did 2 cuts on lil bo peeps cd and what would you do daddy v f/ bad azz & lil hd
-
theres a really nice track on the advance called family reunion (w. bad azz, daz and soopafly). im not sure if it was recorded for this project but it would have been nice to see a similar track on the retail.
From what i head, albums pretty nice. I thought meech wells did mary jane?
-
Pretty sad list. Lot of no namers
i had to post on this, lookin in 07 now, i can see why they picked Nottz, Hi-Tek, Kanye West, Josef Leimberg, Terrace Martin, though i think some of them had a pretty tight buzz already back then...
but Tha Chill always been a dope producer though, on MC Eiht albums and stuff
-
this should have been mainly warren g produced. with some daz, dre, and soopafly, battlecat, fred wreck, meech, jelly roll, and that should have been that.
-T
-
nah, not imo, i think it is just good the way it is, maybe on hte end some songs be replaced by some warren produced ones, but i like it as a whole (no homo)
-
Missy Produced "So Fly"??
Dang..i Like That Track!
-
So Fly is just a straight sample. The DJ Pooh remix is so much better.

Oh For Real??
Do You Got the Mp3 version of Dj Pooh Version???
-

Dang..i Like That Track!
So Fly was a mixtape track over Monica's "So Gone" track, which was produced by Missy Elliot
-
funny now that someone said that this record was produced by a bunch of no namers when there was Terrace Martin, Kanye West, Notts,Fredwreck and Battlecat was all over it!!
-
^^^^
dont forget Hi-Tek....The Hard Way had alotta big name producers on it
-
THEY SOULDA CAME OUT WITH THIS PROJECT BACK IN THE DAYS, WHEN THEY WAS YOUNG & HUNGRY!!!
-
Well, this album is still great even though there's no Warren G beats. "The Hard Way" got way too much hate when it came out.
"MLK" & "Keep It Gangsta" are classic 213 records, the Warren G remix of "Groupie Love" is dope as fuck too.
