cause warren doesnt have much guest producers. i think thats how a warren g album should be.

Post by: budsmokeronly on June 02, 2003, 02:24:00 PM: I like this album, and I thought it was really dope when I d/l the advance, and I was bumping it on my computer constantly, especially the song Streets of LBC. Then the album dropped and I bought it and really didn't listen to it much. Guests are tight, production is good, I always like to hear warren rapping, but there is just something missing. I am not sure what it is, but is is just missing some flair, but it is still a good album.

Post by: _That_Cracka_J on June 02, 2003, 05:42:24 PM: IMO, the beats are pretty bland and boring.
Title: Re:How can people hate on Return Of The Regulator??
Post by: Jome on June 02, 2003, 06:29:30 PM: Yeah, I always loved this album..

The only thing I dislike, is how a lot of the beats sound too similar..
And even if the production is dope, I think Dre could have improved it easily, because Dre's bass hits a bit harder than Warrens does.

Another thing that could be said, is that Warren G isn't exactly a dope lyricist, but his tales of G'ing in the streets is kinda coo..
A solid 4.25 mic album, or maybe 4.5

Post by: pappy on June 02, 2003, 06:41:30 PM: very average album. He wasnt sayin anything new on the mic. Jus the same ol boring subject matter that has plagued rap for the past few years with the exceptions of a few songs. 3/5 average album nothing more nothing less

Post by: Suga Foot on June 02, 2003, 07:41:32 PM: When I put on a Warren G cd, I'm not lookin for dope lyricism, I'm not lookin for different styled beats, I'm lookin for straight G-Funk. And he always brings it. I was JUST listening to "Return of the Regulator" in my car, and the shit bumps. I had heads turnin, people dancin in the streets, old ladies waving at me, bitches askin for my number, lol, but for real, I can put that cd on at a party, and it'll play right through. 10 outta 10 album.

Post by: Bomb-A® on June 02, 2003, 09:35:08 PM: i love this cd
a 3 min. intro! probably the best beat on the entire album

peace

damn u read my mind, the intro beat is the best beat on the album, too bad it was kinda wasted even though it does go on for like 3 minutes, the production is aight but just does not measure up to his first 2 albums, however I like this album way better than "I want it all", but seriously this album is dope but at times average
Title: Re:How can people hate on Return Of The Regulator??
Post by: Jamal420 on June 02, 2003, 11:23:43 PM: The album is not as bad as people made it seem to be, but then again, it wasn't good either. Just an average album. I think people just expected something better because of the "Regulate...", and had very high expectations.
Title: Re:How can people hate on Return Of The Regulator??
Post by: KVB on June 02, 2003, 11:38:54 PM: I never liked this album. My problem with it was, the beats were far too bland and repetitive for my taste, and Warren's performances on the mic were just miserable. He has simply no charisma as a rapper, and should just stick to producing, IMO. I enjoyed the album for good week or so - then never bothered with it again. The only song I really liked was "Yo' Sassy Ways" (f/ Snoop & Nate), which to Warren's credit was incredible and arguably a classic. Overall I would give it 3 mics - it was a huge disappointment. Hopefully Warren will improve on his next album.

Post by: Suga Foot on June 02, 2003, 11:41:36 PM: I think people need to take another listen to "Lookin at you", that's a classic song right there. Warren was AMAZING on the mic.
