they were not promoting the album... daz was furious at suge over the release.. and Kurupt was cool with it.but i think i saw a video where the pound performed the street is a mutha songs and daz was rockin a 2002 album jacket with a big ass death row logo my guess is it's an old song made around 98-99 when Daz & Soopafly were still on Tha Row and Fredwreck was down with them... Fred produced for Kurupt's Tha Streetz which was released when Daz was still on Death Row so it's very easy to imagine him producing material that ended up in suge's hands...
Kurupt wanted those songs to be released because that was when he was still dope lol

Dogg Pound "2002" was dope. Only Kurupt supported it because Daz was just kicked off the label as Lead Producer and Kurupt was resigned. It wasnt played a lot by radio stations because of the low-key label (Ron Winter's D3 Entertainment) (they played "Gangsta Rap" on west radio stations) and Suge made a genius move and gave Jay-Z rights to Pac's sample and he used it for "Bonny and Clyde" with Beyonce (it was "Me and My Girlfriend"), and in return he had Jay-Z, Beanie, Memphis record with Dogg Pound for DJ Clue and then Suge him the rights to the track and it became a solid track on the radio. Tracks 12-15 appeared on Daz's "Raw" (the "What It Iz" album that Daz stole the tracks and released indy). Also, "Crip Wit Us" and "Livin The Gangsta Life" were the real original tracks that Daz remade and it had a remix of "Roll Wit Us" and "Gangsta Rap." The album sold over 400,000. Not bad.

^ wait I don't get what you're saying. You're saying suge had daz and kurupt do the "change the game" remix? Impossible. They weren't suge's artist anymore at that time

Not bad.Wrong on a couple things:1) Kurupt wasn't resigned to the label until January 2002. He wanted the album to come out, but was not signed to the label2) Ron Winter handled the DR catelog over in the UK if I'm not mistaken. D3 and Ron Winter are two different entities3) Suge bought the rights to put "Change Da Game (Remix)" on there. Jay-Z and Suge's agreement about remaking "Me and my Girlfriend" was in exchange for putting a track on the Dysfunktional Family OST. Suge was dissing Jay-Z in 2001-2002 when he came out of jail (I remember an interview he did where Suge said he was robbed, tied up, bound and gagged in the trunk of someone's car).

I think they put all that beef bullshit aside when it came down to business and making money for both camps.
