Title: Kokane is overrated
Post by: TheMan329 on April 22, 2001, 02:15:49 PM
Yo, i dont know why all of you like Kokane so much. I think his voice gets so annoying. I only like him in Henn n' Budd, but thats it. I think its cool that he is original but i still dont understand what dre and snoop see in him?

Yo i totally agree with you. In my eyes Kokane ruins The Last Meal... his annoying voice just gets to me after a while.

Peace

I admit on Tha Last Meal he was getting annoying. I only liked him on Hen N Buddha and Y'all Gonna Miss Me.

But I'm high on Kane. I'm lovin' his style. He is very similar to G. Clinton.

DAMN !!! KOKANE IS DA MAN !!!!

Yeah men, My man Kokane is really one of the dopest rapper/singer down on the Wesside....He was doin' his shit while 2Pac & Snoop were still doin' nuthin'......
So get back in '91 and listen to his first LP 'Who am I? Addictive Hip-Hop Muzick' one of the dopest westcoast LP......
And he neva ruin (as all u say) The Last Meal but give it really somethin' fresh. (almost save the album)

Pe@ce !

Outta his Doggystyle work, he was the best on "Pleezbaleevit!".  Every song he was on was bangin.  "Tha Last Meal" got a lil annoying though.

Lets just say he puts that 70's in me, i need that funk!!
Title: Re: Kokane is overrated
Post by: DPGC2001 on April 22, 2001, 10:26:01 PM
He was definitely overused on Last Meal.  But he's tight as fuck on a few songs though.

I think he is bitin George Clinton. Someone said he was original earlier, and I don't agree with that. He just jacked Clintons style.
Title: Re: Kokane is overrated
Post by: Sikotic™ on April 22, 2001, 10:55:04 PM
Who cares if he copies G. Clinton. I want to hear George Clinton on more songs so Kokane is the next best thing.

And its not that he can sing good he just makes a song much better. Plus he is a great rapper.
Title: Re: Kokane is overrated
Post by: Smooth on April 22, 2001, 10:58:26 PM
His rapping is decent but his singing is just terrible... it makes me feel sick
Title: Re: Kokane is overrated
Post by: Cliftone_Santiago_909 on April 23, 2001, 05:20:34 AM
 I'm Diggin' Kokane'z style too... He gets down on a grip of songz like...
 "Hennesy N Buddah"  Snoop's Last Meal CD
 "Brake Fluid" Snoop's Last Meal CD
 "Bring It On" Snoop's Last Meal CD
 "Ghetto Life" Tha Eastsidaz
 "Dollaz Drank & Dank" Short Khop's CD
 "Kalifornia" Above The Law's "Uncle Sam's Curse" CD
 "Everything Will Be Alright" Above The Law's "Uncle Sam's Curse" Cd
 "So Ignorant" Yukmouth's last CD
 "On The Grind" on Kokane's Own CD......
 
  Yeah, well all those songs are tight and he's on all of them, actually makes them sound a lil better.... but then again he's on alot of song's he fucks up like....
  "Wrong Idea" on Tha Last Meal and "Es Mi Casa" Frum Mr Short Khop's CD....
   Someone said something about him not hangin with Nate Dogg.... he probably dont sing as good as him but on "Ghetto Life" and "So Ignorant".... they're together and I think they actually make a good combonation.... I give Kokane props for actually soundin like a crackhead rappin' on Platinum CD's

There's Only A Few Songs Of Kokane's I Don't Like... Like "Stacey Adams", But I Don't Really Like That WHOLE Song, Except For The Beat.

"Pump Yo Brakes!" Is Classic.. I Mean A TRUE Classic Song.  Henn And Buddah Is Classic, Miss Me Is Classic, "Wrong Idea" He's Good On, He Was Great On Pleezbalievit, I Think.

I'm Into Kokane! I Think It's Good To Have A Funky Singer On A Song.  All He's Doing Is Songs That Nate Don't Wanna Do, Nate's Got So Much Going On, ANd Kokane's Got A Better Work Ethic.

IMO, "Es Mi Cassa" was mostly good cuz of Mr Kane....

Yeah Kanes verse on "Es Mi Casa" was funny and good. His singing was superb.

I agree Snoop uses him 2 much
Title: Re: Kokane is overrated
Post by: Sikotic™ on April 25, 2001, 09:28:08 PM
He shoulda let Butch Cassidy or Nate do some of the hooks. Then it wouldn't be so bad.
Title: Re: Kokane is overrated
Post by: Mr_Loc on April 25, 2001, 09:51:22 PM
man I love Kokane's style, i think he is just west coast funk personified. I'm real glad to see he is getting his due cuz he's been in the game for over a decade putting it down.

His work with ATL on Uncle Sams Curse was the first time I really heard him, and since then I've always been checkin for him.

However I can feel you if your not a Kokane fan, i guess his shit isnt for everyone and he is on everything these days so I can see how he might become annoying for some, but for me he's just DOPE!

oh yea, u Kane fans should peep those SI Riders albums, he's on a grip of tracks on both, he was signed to that label b4 coming to doggystyle. his last solo album (They Call Me Mr. Kane) was the ish too.
Title: Re: Kokane is overrated
Post by: Sikotic™ on April 25, 2001, 10:41:20 PM
Yeah that one song called 1999 or Major Papers was a great song off "They Call Me Mr. Kane).

Post by: LAZY on April 28, 2002, 12:01:00 PM
I think the reason why Snoop had Kokane on the Last meal so much iz becuz Snoop iz tryin ta bring the funk back...... and i think he did. to me Kokane iznt annoying but interesting... i hated him at first no i cant stop listening 2 him... hes addictive.... and also the reason why people (including me) say Kokane iz orignal iz becuz hes the only 1 in the rap game ta bring that sound
Title: Re: Kokane is overrated
Post by: That_Cracka_J on May 01, 2002, 06:59:15 AM
I don't see how anyone could NOT like Kokane.  I loved the fact that Snoop used him so much on Tha Last Meal.  To me, that's what made Tha Last Meal such a tight album-Kokane on the hooks.  If Kokane had only been on a couple of songs, I wouldn't have liked the album as much.  I couldn't imagine anyone but him singing those hooks.
