Title: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Jay_ay_Beee (Guest) on May 26, 2001, 08:53:22 AM
Hot!
I love this album!
I've listened to it 4 times thru - it's hard
In California and O.G. are amazing songs
Was O.G. Snoop's final released recording for Tha Row?
How much did this sell?

PS. Tray Dee is UNBELIEVABLE on this album He is AMAZING

Kurupt was VERY DISSAPPOINTING tho

Ital Joe was AWESOME

Snoop and Nate were BRILLIANT

Who's Ran Dogg? He produced Baby Mamas Drama - also is Big C Style the singer on thaT????

Who's J - Money and Ty Cuzz?

The Gang is Bad Azz, Soopafly and Tray Dee. When did they start and when did they end?

Dope album

 Yeah, I know!

 I hear alot of people talk down on this cd but personally I thought it was THA SHIT!

 I've had that shit since I saw tha "In California" video and that was yearz ago and I still play it.... My favorite songs were always...
 
 "Oh No" Feat. Tray Dee
 "Retaliation Revenge & Get Back"
 "Ridin' High" Feat. WC
 "In California"
 "Ultimate Come Up" feat. Bad Azz & MC Eiht
 
 And those were just MY favorites.... I know there's a grip of other tight songs on that cd!

Post by: Cliftone_Santiago_909 on May 26, 2001, 09:14:38 AM
 Yeah that's what I'm saying!
 
  I alwayz hear people say it was "Dissapointing" coming from daz and I'm like "What tha fuck?? Did you hear tha same cd i did" cuz I think it was Dat Nigga Daz at his best... well I dont know, he was tight on Dogg Food too.
 
  But then what I dont get is when people say RAW is better than Retaliation Revenge & Getback.... actually I was dissapointed when I heard RAW, I've had Retaliation Revenge & Getback for years and only had RAW for a couple months and still bump Retaliation wayyy more.

Did you buy the re-released version?  Or did they not remaster it?
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Cliftone_Santiago_909 on May 26, 2001, 12:14:59 PM
 ??? is there any BIG difference between tha original and the remastered one ???

I have been waiting to hear this album for a while. I have to cop it.

It entered the charts at the #6 position, and dropped fast selling gold.  I thought the "In California" video would blow up, but I only saw it twice on BET.


It was my favorite album of 98, although that isn't saying much cause that was the darkest year for rap, with Master P and Puffy running things, but still a very dope album.  And far better than anything Daz has done since.

Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Don Seer on May 26, 2001, 03:13:53 PM

Post by: Jay_ay_Beee (Guest) on May 26, 2001, 03:16:40 PM
What was that?
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Don Seer on May 26, 2001, 03:20:00 PM
it was a label daz tried to start at one point (it was the first time he left death row.. he then ran back) they dropped one compilation

Who can tell me what is special about the cover on this album?
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Don Jacob on May 26, 2001, 03:32:28 PM
i really don't like this album the production is lack luster and the only one who comes off nice on here is Tray Dee , Pac, Too Short and Snoop

1998 was not a dark year for hip hop. In 98 hip hop was begining to blow up. The beef between the east and west was finally ending and we had people finally focusing on music. However the west had fallin off so I guess you could say 98 was the darkest year for West Coast hip hop. We had some good records in 98 such as gangstarr's moment of truth.  Xzibit's 40 days 40 nightz. Dmx's first cd  It's dark and hell is hot. (don't sleep, his first album was the shit) Big Pun's Capital Punishment. We had the canibus and ll beef. Hmm... tupac's greatest hits. We had Mop's second album. 1998 was the year that Outkast dropped their classic Aquemini album.

I gotta disagree
How you could leave out Nate I don't know

Overseer - Everything is opposite - good side and bad side

Or is that too obvious?
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Don Seer on May 26, 2001, 03:45:58 PM
that is there.. but its not the answer i'm looking for, there is something special about that cover.
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Jay_ay_Beee (Guest) on May 26, 2001, 03:49:56 PM
Is it something you'll know of from looking at it?
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Cliftone_Santiago_909 on May 26, 2001, 04:06:19 PM
 Hold up.... is it something that YOU think is special? Cuz if it is.... how are we supposed to know what you consider to be special?
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Don Seer on May 26, 2001, 04:08:32 PM
there is something of note that not many people know about that cover.
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Jay_ay_Beee (Guest) on May 26, 2001, 04:12:55 PM
But can we look at it and see it or would we need other information?
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Don Seer on May 26, 2001, 04:22:16 PM

jay Ay Bee...Why did you jock narrator?
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Tanjential on May 27, 2001, 08:32:04 PM
I disagree with it being better than RAW and better than anything he's done since, both are bangin but i think R.A.W. is better and Daz is very consistent in my eyes so i wouldn't say he just got worse after this, peace-Tanjint

Post by: Don Jacob on May 28, 2001, 03:03:06 AM

Hmmm, I think I'll make a new thread.
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 28, 2001, 11:48:30 PM
On that album was Daz's production influenced by Marvin Gaye?
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Don Seer on May 30, 2001, 01:37:11 PM
dunno  ;D

but Daz definitely gives him props.. i'm sure i was he's mentioned him and an influence in interviews.
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Sikotic™ on May 30, 2001, 08:41:27 PM
Oh aiight. Thanks.

Marvin Gaye was amazing though. Alot of people were influenced by him.
Title: Re: I just bought Retaliation Revenge and Get Back
Post by: Now_Im_Not_Banned on May 30, 2001, 09:40:30 PM
I laugh when I hear that name...(No disrespect to Gaye. LOL...)...But Marvine was tight though, he's a true legend...
