Title: Is MLK a classic joint?
Post by: Detox Iz Not Active on September 22, 2008, 09:46:20 AM
Beat is smooth, warren and snoop came correct, and Nate dropped another classic hook.  Everything just blended perfectly

if you consider it to be a classic, then it's your choice.

Some people's classics are not mine. This one is, tho.

"Taking a ride on the East Side
 Made a right on MLK
 What a beautiful day, what a day, what a day
 Ridin' high on the East Side
 Looking for a hoodrat today
 Don't you wanna come out and play
 Come and play, come and play...."


 What a great song, Nate just took it to that certified classic level....Rip Nate

Yes. And yeah this album was totally mis-recieved when it came out. People trashed the fuck out of it, but i think the production on the album was way ahead of it's time!

hell MLK...been a classic..I bought the 213 album...the day it dropped!!!
Title: Re: Is MLK a classic joint?

agree for the classic status.
question : what does MLK refer to ?
Title: Re: Is MLK a classic joint?
Post by: LAZY on March 17, 2011, 10:20:49 AM
I agree, classic song. Battlecat dropped a dope ass beat! The chorus was filthy too.. i always thought that Snoop & Warren could have put more energy in their verses though, besides that though I havnt put this track away since it dropped. 1 of my favs from that 213 album

Daddy V made a song over this beat too.. back in the day i tried to bled the songs but lost time to finish it, heres a clip of what it sounded like

It falls into that category where people expect something and judge the album based on that. In the case of this album, the fans wanted Warren G production on it and didn't get it. Now, I was actually someone who had reservations based on that but truthfully, I love the album. Doesn't matter who produced what or who is featured, it's just a dope album. No, it's not throwback G-Funk but it doesn't have to be.

People hated the album because no warren g production, but listening to the album now there are a lot of dope beats on it.  It was for the best warren stay of beats because of how wack he is, Snoop made a good call
Title: Re: Is MLK a classic joint?
Post by: Sccit on March 28, 2011, 03:12:37 AM
yea...the 213 album was very underrated, mostly cuz warren didn't produce. aint guna lie, it pissed me off too, but the album had some classics, no doubt.
Title: Re: Is MLK a classic joint?
Post by: dnjp4life on March 28, 2011, 04:02:58 AM
It's not a classic but I still enjoy it.  If anything, 'Run On Up' or 'Gotta Find A Way' are two songs that could possibly be considered classics from the 213 album.

that always happens with wrong expectations. same with the "in the mid nite hour" album by Warren G ... it didn't sound g-funky like his previous albums, so people hated it. the album is pretty awesome though. unlike his latest "the g-files" release which followed the same "not like the others" direction but it simply was not up to par.

I always thought of MLK like a Lets Go 2... Anyone else ?
