Subject: Dr. Dre & Snoop Doggy Dog

Hey There!

Gotta give a A+ to Dre for puting out a PHAT album.  I picked it up over the holiday season and my Discman has been on continuous play.  The single "Ain't Nothing but a G thang" is all that and then some.  The video is really good too, seems like Boyz n da Hood pt. II.

As stated in a previous post, Snoop Doggy Dog has mad skills.  His style just blows me away.  I was all over his Deep Cover lyrics and now he rips it up on at least 3 songs on Dre's album.  Snoop's album is the next upcoming deathrow project. Can't wait.

Regarding the DOC, he helped write most of the songs on Dre's album along w/ Snoop.  DOC does appear on the album w/ his raspy voice (FUCK!).  He's on of the game players on "$20 Sack Pyramid".  Pretty hilarious skit.  This justifies that his voice is really fucked up.  Now I recall that he was the dude talking on NWAs "Nigga4Life".  He was "weed head jimmy" or something iike that, talking about getting blunted.

Anywayz, pick up the Dre album if you like PHAT gangsta beats.  Oh yeah, I also
got burnt on Easy's maxi-single.

Peace...

       While at home over break I picked up the Goats debut album,
   Tricks of the Shade. It was a promo that my brother gave me, so I
   don't know if its been released yet.

	The album has been growing on me.  These guys are some ill,
   blunt-smokin, intelligent fellas. To me, they come off as a 
   cross between DHOH (political)  and Cypress (multi-racial w/ a
   different flow). Definetly the most political stuff
   I've heard in a while. 

     The album has 25 tracks, but alot of those are skits.  Normally, I 
  find that shit annoying, but this is different.  The skits are separate
  from the album, they form a sort of mini concept album. The skits are about 
  a character named Chickenlittle and his brother Hangerhead.  They search
  through 'Uncle Scam's Federal Funded Freak Show' looking for their
  moms and 'Uncle Scam'.  The skits are funny, yet are also an honest
  analysis of our government and the system that has resulted from it.

     As for the tracks, my picks so far are, "Got Kinda Hi" "Not Not Bad"
   and "Burn the Flag."  IMO, their style is a'ght- you have to get used
  to their voices. For me, this album would have been all that if the
  tracks were a little deeper, only a few really slam. IMO, I'd say that 
  it is well worth picking up if you're interested in 'political' hip-hop.

   

    Out like the drought,

I believe Redman was refering to his appearance (album debut as far as I know)
on EPMD's third album, _Business As Usual_, and the cut, "Hardcore."  Last
album is refering to EPMD's last album, since this cut ("Headbanger") appears
only EPMD's fourth album.  Redman also cameo'd on the cut, "Brother's On My
Jock," also on the, _Business As Usual,_ album.

Hey I thought _Business Never Personal_ was the second best of the four.  When
you compare it with _Unfinished Business_ and _Business as Usual_ it just
sounds better.  _Unfinished_ has some stupid songs on it and _. . . Usual_
wasn't that great.  I'd much rather listen to "Chill," "Nobody's Safe Chump"
and "Headbangers" than some of the other stuff.   Of course, none of the albums
compares to _Strictly Business_.

Organization: Blue Riddle Productions
Date: Mon, 4 Jan 1993 23:01:18 GMT

A Blue Riddle Productions Update (Live from Bull City)....

For starters, the rap music directory has been created at the ftp site at
Marshall Faulk Uni...er, San Diego State University (sounds.sdsu.edu).  Here's
a list of files already in the directory...

--
Sound files in .2/rap
                    *.au -- Not an audio file

Sound files in .2/rap/house_of_pain
           Jumparound.au -- House of Pain: Jump Around

Sound files in .2/rap/boogie_down
      criminal_minded.au -- "Criminal Minded" recorded by Boogie Down Productions (1986)
          we_in_there.au -- "We In There (remix)" by Boogie Down Productions

Sound files in .2/rap/gangstarr
                dwyck.au -- "Dwyck" by Gangstarr, featuring Nice & Smooth

Sound files in .2/rap/supercat
        ghetto_redhot.au -- "Ghetto Redhot", recorded by Supercat

Sound files in .2/rap/public_enemy
           shutemdown.au -- "Shut Em Down (Pete Rock Remix)" by Public Enemy

Sound files in .2/rap/shabba_ranks
              the_jam.au -- "The Jam" by Shabba Ranks and KRS-1

Sound files in .2/rap/tribe_called_quest
              hot_sex.au -- "Hot Sex" by A Tribe Called Quest (from "Boomerang")
--

I've sent a few more since then, and they should be added to the system soon.
All of the sounds are immediately compatible on NeXT Workstations and Sun
workstations, and with the right equipment, they should work on other computers
as well. (If someone else could post that info, I and the rest of alt.rap 
would greatly appreciate it).  Those people looking to sample sound effects
can also find an abundance of stuff by reading the SOUND_INDEX file on the
main directory.

In the meantime, I have three songs I've been working on that should be done
by the time I get back to Indiana, and as a public service to everyone out 
there that has been waiting for them, I'll be sending them to the site around
February or so.

In the meantime, if anyone has a request for a song they'd like to see in the
site, drop me some e-mail, and I'll see if I can get it on. (I'll be sending
stuff from Ice Cube, Brand Nubian, Paris & more BDP when I get back.)

Once again, Blue Riddle Productions is in FULL effect for 1993.  Peace, 
Justice, and Halle Berry, y'all, and I'm vapor...till next week.

Greetings!

Did any of yu catch Redman on BET's Video LP show yesterday afternoon?
He pretty much confirmed that the squad is having problems and may be
breaking up.  The thing that tripped me out most, though, is the fact
that one of the first questions out of the mouth of the host, Madelyn
Wood, was when she said something like, "so, I understand you get high?"
Redman, apparently not one to be intimidated, admitted that he smokes
weed and why (the main reason being that it makes him "funkier").  They
spent quite a bit of time on the subject.

Redman did two live songs and, at the urging of BET, IMO, he put out a
disclaimer that he wasn't telling kids to go smoke dope, because it's
not for everbody to do...

I guess you just had to be there...

I saw them on In Living Color and also thought they were weak.  I've
heard worse but I don't think they are going to be anything I'm 
interested in.  I thought the video was better than the live performance.
At first I thought the video sucked, but as it went on it grew on me
and by the end of the song...I don't want to say I liked it...but I
could easily tolerate it.  (I know that sounds stupid but I don't know
how else to put it).  I do think that song has a lot of potential for
parody, though.

I personally am not waiting for this album to come out.  After the "Cop Killer"
"controversy", I have no respsect for Ice-T.  If the label didn't force him to
take the song off, why do it?  If he has so much skills, it shouldn't be hard
for him to get another record deal if left Warner Bros.  At the least, dude
appears to be living large enough to do his own shit and out it out there
himself.  Although his song on the Trespass album is kind of phat, I await
nothing from this "man".

Is that "You're Not Gonna Take My Life" song on the CD single?  Personally, I
didn't think the song was that great, but if you are a big Cube fan, then it
would make sense for you to buy it.  If you don't plan on mixing the LP and the
single, or you don't want instrumentals, its not worth it, unless maybe there
is some remix that isn't on the 12".

After listenting to _Sleeping with the Enemy_ for a while now, I must say it
is a great album.  The first time I listened to it, the beats sounded recycled
but they work.  Paris' style takes getting used to but I like it.  The album
is like an audio assault too.

I also picked up "Who's da Flavor/Bring it On" 12" by Ali Dee with Kool G Rap
on "Bring it On."  Both songs are phat and "Bring it On" has crazy rimes by
G Rap and a similar beat to "Ya Mama" by The Pharcyde.  And a nice little
Redamn sample.

The new Source is out too with Run DMC on the cover.  Supposedly, their new album
has a lot of Christian influence on it.  Hope it slams.  Don't know when the
album will drop though. . .  And what's with the Dennis files?  He said that
there were three rappers who "went out" during 92:  KRS 1, CL Smooth, and Showbiz
& AG; he said "think before you speak out" or something like that.  What did
he mean?  I can see the KRS1 reference but not the others.  Anybody know?

I'm waiting for the Brand Nubian to come out and the Heavy D's, which the Source
reviews in the new issue.  I think it got 4 microphones.

It would seem that this is the albums' sub-title.  I saw it written on the

    Ah, and also, how about Cube's "Wicked" CD single?

Weird. I've heard On the Ease. Chicago style hip-hop? Maybe potential.
Holdup, my draws are in my crack, a'ight, back the tape. And I know I
didn't do nothing but that shit be following me wherever I go.

Woah! Quik can rap and fast too and he's got a sense of funk that few can
match. However, he has been known to go pop/r&b. Something about doing a
video in a bathtub in the Mojave in a refrigerator. On the other hand,
Jus lyke Compton, Quik is the Name, etc are phat! Way Too Fonkey is just
that.

ObDiggablePlanets: Nice jazz sample, but no talent, basically they suck
but you'll get over it. Listen to the words, they reek.
