213 (1 Year Later)

[Suga Foot]

Ok, it's been a year since 213 came out, so I'm curious what peoples opinions are, if they've changed or not.  Or are people still crying about it. 


Personally, I think it's a great album.  There are some skippers on it, but overall I like the album.  I liked it right off the bat.  I was a little dissapointed when I found out that Warren didn't produce any songs on it, but I just took the album for what it is.  I wasn't expecting a Doggystyle or Chronic.  The album still gets play in my car.

i haven´t heard the album yet, i´ve been thinkin of buyin it a gang of times but i´ve always forgot about it when i´ve bought albums.

[Meho]

i agree with you.at first we were all dissapointed with it becuase there was no warren g production.but at least there was no 50 cent,eminem and jayz like warren g said in an interview.all things considered its a very enjoyable cd.

[T-Dogg]

The few tracks I liked right away, I like still. But there's just a few of them on the album... MLK (<-- that shit is the bomb though), My Dirty Ho, Groupie Love, Run On Up and the Groupie Love G-Funk remix that came out a little bit after the album did.

Besides those tracks, I really ain't feelin' it. The rest of the album really doesn't sound that good to me.

I still think it's somewhat of a crime that Warren didn't produce anything on it though.

I've always liked it after I got over the fact that Warren wasn't gonna produce on it.  There are a couple of stupid tracks though (213 The Gangsta Clicc)

"The Hard Way" is a grate album. Dope Beats , Very Good  Lirycs . This is a one of fairest album of '04.  

Best Songs :

That album is still a disgrace to the 213 legacy.

Dubcc was the only place I saw people hatin on the album. I do think it was fuck'd up that Warren didn't do any songs for it, but it was still a dope summertime album. I only skipped over "lil girl" and "my dirty ho" the rest got played. Even people down south were on this album, and they usually hate west coast albums.

One thing that does make me mad is that Warren didn't come  correct on too many songs on here, but since that album came out, I've heard him RIP 4-5 songs since then, with his flow being doper than it's ever been.

Shit is bumpin to me..."Joystick" is fuckin classic West Coast shit! i love bumpin that shit, "Mary Jane", damn i feel tha album alot i dont care for talk of comparing because when it comes to artist of their caliber there first joints are always going to be the best espeacially when you compare them to the albums that got you into Hip Hop or into the genre of music...for Nate Dogg beside "G-Funk Classics" this is his best album to me, it's not all over the place, he was capable of speaking his mind "Lonely Girl", "Lil' Girl", he was able to fall in love the G-Way "So Fly", "Neva Love A Hoe"...he sounded tight on alot of the instrumentals, "Twist Yo Body", "Run On Up", "MLK"...Battlecat really dropped some of my favorite beats of him on this album "Ups & Downs", "Keepin It Gangsta", "M.L.K.", are really dope and he mixed them fuckin well!!!

They should come out with another album soon.

[IzUwitIt]

there are a few decent tracks, but still a year on the shit aint grown on me & I doubt it will

probably because of what I expected before it dropped

[Fressh_Deini]

This 213 album was not a classic but I really enjoy listening to it...
It's a nice cd when you feel like listening to some relaxing music without paying attention to lyrics and all...
But if they made this album 10 years ago it would probably have been way better..

I rate it 7.5/10!

That album is still a disgrace to the 213 legacy.

[WestCoasta]
