best part of interview

YGD Top Dogg: I talk to Tha Realest and all that; I talk to a couple cats, Crooked I. But I'm not really involved with any of their projects. I don't know why, but I don't beg either though. With me and Tha Realest, I know he's doin' his thing, but I kinda want to separate myself from that. I don't want to be no Snoop Dogg [and] 2Pac [copycats working together]. Really, we're cool, and we've got good music [in our catalogs] together and everything, but with me, I just don't wanna go back to mothafuckas wanting to compare me again

props enya

DX: You worked with hit-makers like O.F.T.B., J-Flexx, DJ Quik, and so on. What was it like working with Dr. Dre tracks, even if he was gone?

YGD Top Dogg: It still felt like he was there. Today, mothafuckas [aren't in the same studio, so] they email tracks. It's the same shit. [Chuckles] The track is still made by that person. When I was on Death Row, some of that shit I took for granted. I ain't gon' lie.

Don't agree with this sentiment at all. It's the same problem I have with that Crook track they did over "Next Episode". If Dre didn't touch the track after you spit on it or mix down the vocals, he didn't PRODUCE it.

I could never get into Top Dogg's music, I find him really wack

I think he should just leak them if he can't release them properly, or maybe he can put them on a mixtape?

I wonder how many other artists from that generation of Death Row (Doobie, Swoop G, Top Dogg, Tha Realest, Mac Shawn, VK, etc.) recorded over unreleased Dre beats.
