I only know this album. Perhaps he lacked consistency. In those days, the major labels ruled the roost, so protection was important. This album has achieved cult status among G-funk music fans anyway.
Y-D should have been famous. He is a very talented rapper. He deserves to be in the same category as the rest of the top West Coast rappers. It is upsetting how all of these mumble rappers today make millions and he does not. Recognize game!!!
well thanks to social media and all the dumb people with their low ass standards when it comes to quality music that be like "but this is catchy". its beyond my comprehension why people even listen to new school rap when its full of sellouts, dickriders and fake studio gangsters. I cant listen to fucking materialisic liars. And I know there has been materialism in the pas but it wasn as bad as its now.
It's all saturation, man. I completely agree with you though, this album is even more underrated than CJ Mac's True Game or Rappin' Ron & Ant Diddly Dog's Bad-N-Fluenz tape. The problem is that back in the day there were just so many artists, many of whom had little to no promotion from their label. Y-D's flow and voice are absolutely iconic.
@@SmokeConsciousHipHop I understand what you're saying. Unfortunately this is one of the dirty sides of the music business that a lot of people don't see.
I still bump this whole album, loud as fuck especially at night, keeping in mind its 2022 so u know the mumble dudes's heads be turning in wonder...90s till i die fuck what u thought✌
Hell yeah my homie! You sound just like me lol This new generation ain't knowin. Especially when it comes to that game laced funk from out the bay area!
One of my favorite G funk albums ever. 10/10 A+++ I was really happy and surprised to hear a full version of the track "Quarter to a Key." Every version online is cut off so this just made my day!
Yooo i been looking for the first song foreverr and i could never found it. I listened to it all the time like 2 or 3 years and i was looking up lyrics. Rn i see this under a song i was listening to and thank goodness lol
Comin up in the city , Yeah The city of dope The one that couldn't be saved by John The pope I keep to the script Better yet stay true I got the game from pops n thats what he told me to do. 👊 ❤ 💵
how did this guy not be on the top tier list with all the west coast legends? dudes fucking fire and this whole album is a banger
It was just harder to break out back then, a black ball was much more effective then too.
@@DontAttme and he only dropped one album
because the real ones get blackballed they want rights to all your music so they can make money off of you and leave you broke

Anyone with a brain knows their money is fake n they’re industry plants, pretty obvious
