Title: Question About WC & His Groups....
Post by: Lunatic on May 05, 2007, 06:37:44 PM
--The Low Profile was only WC & DJ Aladdin, correct?

--Tha Maad Circle's first album (Aint A Damn Thing Changed) was composed of members (minusing guests) WC, Coolio, Big G, DJ Crazy Toones, Sir Jinx?

--But there 2nd album (curb servin) was the same people, minus coolio?

--Also, from these 3 albums which songs were used as singles? Same question for Dub's solo "The Shadiest One"

thanks to whoever answers :)

The single for Low Profile was "Pay YA Dues". For Maad Circle's 1st album, I'm not sure about the singles. Their 2nd album had "West Up" as a single with Mack 10 & Ice Cube. For Shadiest One, I remember "Jus Clownin" & "Cheddar" as singles.

MC Zero was briefly? Low Profile was a only a group for a brief period of time, which brings me to my next question, does MC Zero appear as a group member on Low Profile's only album "we're in this together"

Coolio was on 1 track on the 2nd LP. So for the 1st LP, the group was WC, Toones, Coolio, and the 2nd album was just WC & Toones? then who's the 3rd guy on the cover of curb servin?

sorry for all the questions, but directed at "tha chemist" for the 2nd Maad Circle LP, not only did Coolio leave the group, but Sir Jinx & Big G as well? I'm taking that from your very 1st post in this thread

"Low Profile was originally a trio of two aspiring rappers and a DJ coming out of L.A. The groups membership consisted of WC, DJ Aladin, and MC Zero, who went on to pursue a career in visual art"

i'm pretty sure MC Zero wasnt around for the album

lol i dunno, i always been meaning to d/load Ain't A Damn Thing Changed, i'm like so into Curb Servin' i feel i don't need it haha

WC is dope. Alot of classics in his catalog, to bad he's slept on.

lol, fuck that brings up another question. Maybe i'm on crack, but i'm pretty sure Dub ain't the only rapper on this album. I ain't just talkin about 1 song either, most that is. Then if it ain't aladin, who is it?

"In addition to the former Ice-T affiliate WC, the talented group also included DJ Crazy Toones, longtime Ice Cube producer Sir Jinx, and future chart-topping pop-rapper Coolio. Because the latter two(Coolio & Sir Jinx) were so occupied with their own respective solo careers, the Maad Circle dissolved"

J-Dee dropped a verse in "You Don't Work, U Don't Eat."  Ice Cube introduced him, but I think it just served as a plug for Da Lench Mob.

Nah J-Dee was never in Maad Circle. It has always been Dub, Coolio, Toones, and Big G. I compared Big G to the 2 guys in the Lost Boyz that never rapped. He is a part of the group, just not rapping.  ;D

Sir Jinx to me was more of the in house producer, like Fred Wreck is to DPGC. He worked on Cube's stuff, WC's stuff and anything else the crew was putting together. Not like Toones who was more the official DJ for Maad Circle.

Didn't read all replies.  But I will sahy that Dub is THE REALEAST cat on the west, one of the very few that I check 4 these days.  He knows how to spit, Crzy Toones knows how to make beats and the rest is gravy.  Fuck the hype, yall motherfuckers open your ears and recodnize that dub, cube, and Crazy Toones are bringin the best shi out the west and it ain't even close.  CT Experience is album of the year, I hope Dub & Cube put out WEST COAST albums that don't try and hop on all the wack trends, yall be yourself an eberything will take vare of itself.  they create, everybody duplicate!!!!
