Man shut up! If you think Warren G's carreer is ruined just cause the sales of his last album aint that good.. then you a fool! What about Nas then? Or Snoop with The Wash OST and with Doggys Angels etc? What about ALL the West Coast releases of 2001? Everybody with a ruined carreer? Shit.You dont like him or his last album, and it's clear. And i accept it, of course. But stop writing bullshit, and bullshit, and bullshit. Snoop made a lot of bad releases on Doggystyle, but still he's there! Same with Dre (who remembers Dre Presents The Aftermath?). Same with Daz. Same with Nate (who really got his last album OG? lol! I bet just 2-3 of you..). So.. everybody with a ruined career?Warren G made a good album. Not his best, but.. still a good album (probably the 2nd best of 2001. In the top 10 for sure!). The problem is not of Warren G. The problem is of the West Coast rap and of the record labels who aint spending money on (West Coast non exposed) rappers no more (like they used to do back in the days). That's the reason why we have record labels spending millions to make videos for Ja Rule and a lot of NY wack rappers. Just cause they got the attention of the media, of MTV and of young fans (expecially from Europe).Warren used to have a GREAT promotion. Let's say the truth! He sold millions because of singles/videos like Regulate and I Shot The Sheriff. And What's Love Got To Do With It. Videos that everybody saw on MTV and everywhere! (the singles went even platinum i think). So it's all about promotions. No more videos played on a regular base on MTV? No more platinum hits! Clear as fuck. This is how it works, man! Simple. Then you can judge a whole album and compare it to his first one, and write that probably the 1st is still his best one. But that's another fact. 99% of the guys who buy rap albums just buy them because of a famous single/video. Warren chosed the wrong video and it didnt even make MTV here in Italy. So what the fuck do u want more from him?Like u can see... it's all about promotion!Look at Knoc. He's famous just cause he made a damn video with Dre. And they played it everywhere. And now you all wanna buy his album.U know what i mean?PROMOTION.
What I ment is that he'll probably never regain lost popularity... if you disagree with my opinions, simply ignore them... I do not intend to offend anyone.
Personally i agree with KVB, Warren G is gettin too old for this shit, i know Dre is too, but that different, he a more famouse artists/producer When i saw the video to Lookin At yOu, i jus thought DAAAAAAM warren's gettin old....he jus ain't something that the new catz of hip hop wanna listen to... Peace
Are you an ageist? Age has nothing to do with it & Warren's still young so I don't know where that 'too old' statement comes from....
what ever happened 2 the ghetto village RMX wit snoop and nelly, that prolly woulda helped him get sales
coz of nelly mainly yeah...if they released a video and had the remix as the single n shit snoop would help him sell....but these days nelly would more!
When i saw the video to Lookin At yOu, i jus thought DAAAAAAM warren's gettin old....Peace
This is right. I thought it too. Just compare his tired face with the one of his old videos. He's getting old. He's 30 or 31, he aint young no more. But it's another Warren G...Btw..We are still talking about rumors like they true. I mean.. c'mon.. let's wait for some official news. We just heard it from Myrealname (no disrespect, but u didnt quote any official news). I wanna c it officially written somewhere first. And about Ghetto Village, we dont know the full story at all.Maybe Warren recognized he cant never be the same Warren G that made platinum singles, and videos in the top 3 of MTV & BET, so he realized that it's better to get some G's by going underground, maybe working with Mista Grimm....Who knows? Give him a chance. He's still the one who put Snoop, Nate, 5 Footaz, Twinz, Reel Tight, Dove Shack etc.. on the map! He can be a CEO. Personally i think he is the only DPGC affiliated who got the skills to be a CEO (with Dre, of course). So it's interesting. Let's wait for other moves. His career is totally in his hands now..
Twinz's album was the only decent warren g's production, Reel Tight's album is wack as fuck.
