Okay, so 2010 wasn't exactly a record-setting year for Beatswatch. All the reason to expect that 2011 will be a shockingly robust return to form (regression toward the mean and all that).
There's something almost touchingly endearing about a West Coast Gangsta rap track this early in the "genre". The beats are still delightfully oldschool, nary a G-Funk whiz or wheeze here. The rappers faces, so gaunt (well, at least Snoop) and young. Even the profanity and offensive language, still self-muted, unsure how truly excessive it could be and would one day become. Why did this never see the light of day? Surely Death Row owns it and could spit it out on their latest "everything but the kitchen sink" attempt to profiteer off of their back catalog.
