audio review : WAWG [ We All We Got ] ( album ) … Tha Dogg Pound

We All We Got would’ve sufficed. The WAWG abbreviation is tacky and redundant. The album makes more sense musically; the Intro is vintage Death Row; though it doesn’t get particularly interesting till “the last record” when Snoop leaves LA for New York City. Who Da Hardest, he asks over a DJ Premier beat. Tha Dogg Pound reply with guests RBX and The Lady Of Rage as you wish the whole album sounded like this.

audio review : Gangsta Boogie ( song ) … Wale ( featuring Tha Dogg Pound )

This Boogie goes from good to great near the end when the GANGSTA chant comes in. Wale says it “crank like a motherfucker” and he’s right. What he should’ve done was interpolate it, at least the main parts of it, into the other chorus sections. As is, the song, which celebrates the Cali “gangsta” lifestyle with Kurupt and Daz, is a would-be classic.
