She did somethin with Mel-Man a few years ago I think.. Cant remember exact time it dropped but there was also talks of an album?
Did it drop? Or whats goin on wit it?
Anybody know?
-
Delayed I guess.
Last news was about an album with DJ Premier dropping Summer 2011
http://www.djpremierblog.com/2011/04/03/lady-of-rage-upcoming-album-is-95-fixed-by-dj-premier/
Album is long overdue, and Rage still got it.

she just did a song with Crooked I recently that was cut off the Psalm cd

never dropped (yet?), she still supposed to be on Primo's label as far as I know & project's (officially) is not shelved so maybe one day we'll have the pleasure to listen to it?

Intersting 2 Hear Lady Of Rage And Crooked I On Tha Same Track, Who Laced Tha Beat?
-
It's criminal Rage didn't blow up after Necessary Roughness. Death Row fully slept on her potential and should've got an album out in 94/95 after Afro Puffs.
Necessary Roughness = Doggystyle = Dogg Food but 'typical' West Coast fans wouldn't agree.
Most slept on artist in the camp.

They slept on Nate Dogg's solo & Daz's solo too. & Later on with Tha Row "2nd Dynasty" they slept on EVERYONE but Kurupt (that is Crooked I & Eastwood)
-
True dat!! I might bump Nates solo today to compare
-
You're going to be waiting a long time for this album. Primo still hasn't finished an album that he started in 2007.

Doggystyle would be streets ahead if it wasn't so limited lyrically. A few tracks in you know you've heard Snoops repertoire.
-
what you hear & listen to first & foremost in the MUSIC, the beats, the productions. & in that field, you know how to rate them albums, as #1, #2 & #3.

The wEst (with a few noticeable exceptions) is not best known for his lyricism, but for its music, the vocals are important of course, but they more seen as another instrument to complement the music, while on the East, (all of them aren't lyrical geniuses eirther) they can rap over the most simplistic beat which would be "unacceptable" (fr lack of better word) for the West, or un-sophisticated if you prefer... the West has always been more musical & that's what made it stand out & successful to begin with.

This relates exactly to my original comment - for this reason Rage has been criminally slept on.

I DO agree on that, just not on the albums being equals though.
-
Doggystyle is a top 5 rap album ever
Rage's cd isn't a top 100 rap album ever
-
Doggystyle is a top 5 rap album ever
Saying Doggystyle is top 5 rap albums ever, doesn't say a lot for the genre.

lol, fuck outta here, u know as much about RAP music not related to DPG/aftermaht/DeathRow, as u do about fresh air outside of ur window -
meaning, nothing
-
saying Doggystyle isn't one of the top 5 CDs ever is like saying the Yankees aren't the best baseball team ever or like saying Crooked I isn't the best lyricist from the LBC 8)
-
Rage can rap her ass off but Necessary Roughness suffered from lack of production/ direction. Premo beats aren't going to cut it. They should have had the second string produce on that, like Sooperfly or something. Microphone Pon Coc was dope.

Rage can rap her ass off and that was the main strength of the album. Having said that Big Bad Lady (Rock On) and No Shorts are some of Death Rows finest.

but the fact you compared it to DOGGYSTYLE is a laugh and a half

True stories. Rage is the best spitter in the camp (rivalled only by Kurupts best verses). Doggystyle is party records and funk and radio friendly shit. Dogg Chit is tight rappin and str8 G-shit. Necessary Roughness is a different class of rappin altogether, but i guess doesnt fit the 'West Coast' formular for people. All have their qualities.

Agreed from a lyrical standpoint. From a musical standpoint though, her album comes after those. It's a shame because if she should have dropped after Doggystyle we would not be even having this discussion. Easily in my top 10 DOA MCs

There are thousands of CDs that are lyrically better than "doggystyle"... As far as production value goes, it's not even close. Rages album was a disappointment. While its not a bad album, it's nowhere near classic. I'd say it's good, but if it came out when it was supposed to, it woulda been much better from a production standpoint.
-
yeah Rage's album was full of WACK beats with a few dope songs sprinkled in (microphone pon cock, big bad lady etc)
that Snoop/Daz song was wack because we heard the sample used MUCH better that same year by Notorious BIG on Long Kiss

Doggystyle being a classic record doesn't automatically make it a masterpiece.

your analogy is weak.
u basicaly try to evaluate Rage's album as classic/"better than Doggysytle" objectively or soemthing (because the lyrics were dope),
even tho ur just using ur own subjectivity as a blueprint (which isnt relevant).
ur stupid

Is Dogg Food considered a classic anywhere other than amongst genre fans? Not all great albums fall under the spotlight.
Rage = slept on. Thats my point.

^okay, :)
good for u, now kill ur incohesive rambling & "Seven samurai"-comparisons, n go make a thread bout how much u think the new Rick Ross-album is lyrical.
ur hiphop-related opinions & attempts at "knowin-what-ur-talkin-about" are as meaningful/retarded as MekkanRefugee's

she just did a song with Crooked I recently that was cut off the Psalm cd

not really...lyrics aint shit without production value. so as much as u value lyrics, someone could write a lyrical masterpiece, but it would come out as shit without a proper production team producing/mixing/mastering your lyrics... it's not that i'm saying "doggystyle" and "dogg food" are better than "necessary roughness". theyr'e simply on another level. furthermore, "dogg food" had it's share of dope lyricism, as well. any way u slice it up, "necessary roughness" doesnt measure up to "doggystyle" and "dogg food". and i'm pretty sure rage will tell u this herself, as well as every1 who worked on those albums.

Yeah Doggystyle sounds great, full of memorable tunes, catchy, funny, entertaining, radio friendly, great features.
Weak point is Snoop.

there is no better representation of west coast hip-hop from that time period...it was perfectly produced, and the lyrics are what they are. simple, but effective. it is the perfect album and they got exactly what they were going for. it's a staple and one of the most influential albums in west coast hip-hop and is definitely a 5/5 (or 10/10, whatever u wanna call it). u should know this by now. comparing it to "necessary roughness" is just weird.

Necessary Roughness = Doggystyle = Dogg Food
wtf? LMAO
True stories. Rage is the best spitter in the camp (rivalled only by Kurupts best verses). Doggystyle is party records and funk and radio friendly shit. Dogg Chit is tight rappin and str8 G-shit. Necessary Roughness is a different class of rappin altogether, but i guess doesnt fit the 'West Coast' formular for people. All have their qualities.
There are thousands of CDs that are lyrically better than "doggystyle"... As far as production value goes, it's not even close. Rages album was a disappointment. While its not a bad album, it's nowhere near classic. I'd say it's good, but if it came out when it was supposed to, it woulda been much better from a production standpoint.
Doggystyle being a classic record doesn't automatically make it a masterpiece.

lol...i dunno what ur doing on this forum if u dont realize the importance of "doggystyle" to west coast hip-hop.
I never said Doggystyle wasn't a classic.
Is Dogg Food considered a classic anywhere other than amongst genre fans? Not all great albums fall under the spotlight.
Rage = slept on. Thats my point.
at the end of the day, "doggystyle" and "dogg food" are on another level than "necessary roughness"
If you value production over lyrics IMO
not really...lyrics aint shit without production value. so as much as u value lyrics, someone could write a lyrical masterpiece, but it would come out as shit without a proper production team producing/mixing/mastering your lyrics...
And similarly a production masterpiece like Doggystyle comes out only as good as a great sounding record, with fairly average lyrics.
The logic works both ways.
not true...production value is what makes an album like "doggystyle". if "doggystyle" was recorded on a pc mic with the same exact lyrics, it would be complete shit.
Yeah Doggystyle sounds great, full of memorable tunes, catchy, funny, entertaining, radio friendly, great features.

And what happens if you rate The Chronic higher? You give it a 6/5?

^lol, what do u mean? so i cant say that any otehr albums are 10/10, if "Doggsytle" is a 10/10 (which it is)?
ur self-proclamied hiphop-"connoisseur" act is just retarded & ridiculous.

Do you know what the word better means Mykhailo?
if your scale only goes to 10, you can't give another album more.

to me, they are both on the same level. u could give one 9.9/10 and the other a 10/10....but rage isnt even in the equation. that album would be lucky 2 get an 8/10.

yo mike, you are my e-friend and all that jazz but for fucks sake please don't hijack this thread lol
we have a good discussion going on here without it turning into Mike vs Will again
i do agree that it is mega retarded for someone to say Rage's cd is equal to Snoop's in any way shape or form besides multi syllabic rhymes

Its ok, English is Mikes 3rd language.
His strengths are MS-DOS programming and not getting the point.
I honestly thought at least numbers were universal in our languages though. When asked how much he liked Terrace Martins latest EP 'Oral Sax' he replied 137%
