Man this cut right here is the shit. That was a great 1st single for the Eastsidaz. Their second album was dope too but it did not get the push this one did. I noticed it looks like Kobe's wife Vanessa is in this video. She is the one in the convertible.

Tray-muthafukkin'-Deee!

Yeah, this song is sooooo goooood....never get tired of it.....one of my personal favorites 8)
-
yeah eastsidaz were heavy, I've got to get there first two albums again you know, free tre dee
-
ya Battlecat had that bounce in that one
nice Tray Deee verse as well... they all came good
-
When I first listened to the album it had alot of guests on there, but they kept it all west coast on there. Kind of like what Xzibit is doing with his new one. That and everyone on there meshed well within the song. A few bricks here and there but a bangin album all around. The 2nd was a little more mainstream but the production on the 2nd was sick. Tray Dee was in a zone on both albums.

I think it's better than the first overall
the first has some nice tracks here and there tho

Yeah the second is better. They sounded more like a group on there and Snoop allowed Goldie and Tray Dee to shine more on the 2nd one. But the production was crazy on there. Snoop has always had some great producers to choose from. Fred, Battlecat, the list goes on and on.
-
Man, Gang Bang For Real and Welcome To The House off the second one.2 dope cuts. I am going to pull that one out and bump it too.

one of my favorites of all time

I gotta say I like the first one best, but both records are GREAT!
What still wonders me from time to time is this...how the HELL could Duces N Trays sell A MILLION (!!!) copies, being the near-classic west coast record that it is, when now, only a few years after, west coast rapper are struggling just to make it past the 5,000 bar!! ??
My point is, if a record like Duces could sell a million records there is still hope for the west.... 8)

I think back then it was the approach of record labels. Back then labels did not mind putting out dope shit like a G'D UP or I Luv It (TVT in the case for the Eastsidaz). But once there was a shift into this Mr. Suess shit we have to endure on the radio, every else did not matter because it is not selling as well. Now everyone is looking for another "It's Going Down" or "Chain Hang Low". Nobody wants to be diverse anymore. You get a couple albums that slip through and are really different or good that sell, but in the end you have a bunch of artists compromising their sound to sell.
-
Deuces N Trays was more polished than the first. The beats were better, the rhymes were tighter. The first one gangsta and raw, but it sounded more like they just did a bunch of songs together. They sounded more offical on the second. I luv both of them though. Man, Snoop was really on to something when he started Dogghouse. They were all doing good number out the gate, then it all fell apart.

(sings) If It Ain't A Chevy Don't Raise It Up ;D Yeah I was thinkin the same thing, it is kinda like Tha Streetz. Like I said I bang the hell out of both of them still to this day.
-

Oh, your cool, I was unsure at first if that was her. I just wanted somebody to confirm it for me. It's just crazy to see her in a video like that.

Yeah, it's hard for me to decide if I like this better than "I luv it" because I Luv it was my favorite song of the year...prolly my all time favorite beat. And both albums sold a whole lot....the second debuted at #4 on the overall Billboard charts.
-
CLassic Track..Classic album... I wish the DoggHouse Production Team was still around
-
G'd is so fuckin hard it's ridiculous. Damn Battlecat was on one at that time. Damn the whole west coast was on one at that time.
-
Track's just awesome!

one of my favorites
