I always liked Bag O Weed with Tray Deee, who got out of prison recently if I'm not mistaken.

I always liked Tray Dee. Good voice, good delivery. Trying to think, he's got a tight song on one of the soundtracks, maybe Murder was the Case or Above the Rim.

This Is a good one on Nates album, also on the Gang Related soundtrack.

Daz is another one with a good debut messed up by the Death Row downfall. This was a solid album.

 

Death Row killed a lotta folks like that, Afro Puffs shoulda been a bigger album too...they had Crooked I tied down for a minute too.

Daz is underrated as fuck, Kurupt at least gets respect as an MC but Daz is kinda not as rated...and he should be.

I love Daz's style. He was laid back but could get wild as hell. Good flow, one of my favorite mc's, he was just so raw and street. And he does so much shit, rap, produce, hype man. He's always doing crazy shit in the background. He's all over the Chronic. He's the devil voice on Murder was the Case. On Ambitionz as a Ridah when Pac says drivin in plush cars, that's Daz in the back doing the skeeerrt sound like he got a wheel.

And as producer, oh my goodness listen to these beats. They're perfect. Daz got classics.

Yeah, slangin, gang bangin, jackin. I liked his personality, chilled but don't fuck with me.

The death row/ruthless beef gave us this. Golf course, near riot, gun pulled, Nate and someone in a golf club fight:lol: Fun times! I have no idea what the hell Method Man was doing there, "I love this game" :lol:

Nah, was it The Show?  Nah, it weren't The Show.  That was at some kinda hip hop convention or something maybe...?

Oh man I haven't seen The Show in forever. Seems like backstage concert type stuff, or convention from what I remember. Nate nailed that guy with the club :lol: Ever seen Murder was the Case? The actual full length thing.

Yep. Nate, Daz, Kurupt, Rage, Crooked.

Suge really fucked up with Crooked. Rap was huge at the time with Rockafella, Ruff Ryders, Mudera Ink, Nas, 50 out of NY. The south was starting to blow up. Dre and Snoop and Em and Xz from the west. New Death Row could've found a market if Suge had his shit together. He should have pushed Crooked hard.

This was a hell of an intro for an artist. That's a nasty flow.

I don't endorse this album, it's one of those things where Suge was just throwing people's unreleased shit together after they were gone and calling it an album. But this song is tight, and some great early Crooked showing he could hang with the big dogs.
