^^ Exactly. This is by far the most interesting thread in a long while. I remember getting this album when it dropped. And was very much into death row at the time... its good to fill in some blanks, and archive a bit of history. Its fun to look back, even if its not productive.

Wouldnt Doggfather Sell More/Hype If They Put One (Or Maybe Even 2) Pac-Collabo On It?
Why Did They Took Streetlife Off It?I Don´t Git It.

I have a feeling a lot of the above are skits. Pretty sure "Doggfather Interlude" = the Doggfather album intro, "Whats My Name REMIX" = Daz's remix that was released on DR greatest hits, "Word on The street" = that skit that appears before Freestyle Conversation: "word on the street is your beats gonna be delicate since dre blah blah" and so on.

another interesting thing that may be materializing, is the "Doggystyle Records Comp" that was advertised in Doggfathers cd booklet. Theres many songs throughout these sessions that would fit perfectly on something like that.

Doggy Style Record Compilation 6/6/96

Would u kill 4 me is a skit with Daz talkin. Isn't that from his first album or maybe something that came through more recently. I forget

6-11-96 Street Fame - 2pac Added. So the April version must be the OG without 2pac. Very interesting.

In no particular order right now even tho I've already done it the album shouldve went like

CWalkin
Ride 4 Me
Up Jumps Tha Boogie- maybe as a Single bonus track
I Will Survive
Too Blacc
County Blues
Ride On (Caught Up)
Too High
Groupie
Vapors
Blueberry
You Thought
Sixx Minutes- with better mixing tho
Me And My Doggz
Eastside
Eastside Party
Intro
Outro
Word On The Streets (skit)
Gold Rush  - another Single bonus track
Head Doctor
Midnight Luv
Downtown Assassins
Snoop's Upside Ya Head - another Single bonus track
Wake Up
Traffic Jam




So so so much more could've become of that album its crazy how Suge or Snoop for that matter even let that fly.


I'm sure we're still missing out on songs that should've been on there instead.  The released version of this album will puzzle me for the rest of my life.

Now that I think about it I guess Snoop had no choice but to get out of his contract so he released a less potent album with a lot less bass

Becuz even if he was trying to brighten up his image he still had better material to do it with
