[DISCUSSION] Snoop Dogg - Doggystyle (25 Years Later)

Posted: 22 Nov 2018 05:57 AM PST

Doggystyle is the debut studio album by Snoop Dogg, recorded and produced following his significant contributions to Dr. Dre's debut solo album The Chronic. The melodious G-Funk style of synth-driven, funk-induced beats that he developed from Dre's first album continued on Doggystyle. This distinctive production, coupled with Snoop's raw lyricism and smooth flow, helped bring forward West Coast hip hop as a dominant force in the early-1990s. The album earned recognition from many as one of the most significant albums of the decade, as well as one of the most important hip-hop albums off all time.

25 years later, what do you think of this album?


Some points for discussion:

  • Does it deserve classic status?

  • What is the legacy of this album?

  • Dre realized that it wasn't time to push the limits of G-funk, but instead to deepen it musically - what did you think of the production on this album?

  • What is your favourite track?

  • Doggystyle is credited for further establishment of the slurred "lazy drawl" that sacrificed lyrical complexity for clarity and rhythmic cadence - is this a style you like?

  • This album managed to attract even more controversy than other 90s rap albums for its depiction of women and sexual violence - what do you make of this issue then and now?

Engineer who worked on Micheal Jackson's Dangerous album, tells the story of Biggie meeting Michael Jackson

Posted: 21 Nov 2018 03:20 AM PST

I was browsing some threads on gearslutz looking for some info on the equipment used on Michael Jackson's albums and stumbled upon this thread where an engineer who worked on Dangerous tells the story of Biggie meeting Michael Jackson. I thought you guys might like and appreciate it.

Quote:

By the way, to elaborate a bit on the Notorious B.I.G. session, it was kinda like this. Michael used to call people to ask them to participate on albums. It was interesting knowing that nearly anyone on the planet would come to the phone if it were Michael calling. Anyway, I heard rumors that B.I.G. was going to come, and I was excited about that! I knew that I would be the one to record that, as I had recorded nearly all of that tune, "This Time Around".

So, Dallas and I were expecting him any minute, and pretty much on time, Notorious strolls in. He was quite an imposing figure when he walked in, as he was quite popular at the time. I had no idea what to expect from him in terms of attitude, but he seemed nice when he walked in. No problem. But almost immediately, he blurted out, "Yo, Dallas, can I meet Mike?" To which, Dallas replied that he thought so. Biggie went on to talk about how much this opportunity meant to him, as Michael was his hero. Anyway, Dallas tells him that we're going to lay down the rap first, so Biggie heads in the booth, we get some headphone levels and get ready to start recording.

So, we hit the big red button (on a Sony 3348 machine), and away we go. During his first take, Dallas and I looked at each other, because it was spot on. wow. I was impressed, and so was Dallas. We listened back, and Dallas was like, "Wow, I think we got it". As I recall, we took another take for good measure, but I'm fairly certain that we ended up using the first take. So, Notorious comes in, and asks if he can meet Michael now. We sent word to the back room where Michael was working that Biggie was finished and wanted to meet him.

Simply for security, Michael's security would enter and make sure that no one was in the room that shouldn't be, and once that was confirmed (it was just me, Biggie and Dallas), Michael came in. Biggie nearly broke out in tears...I could tell how much this meant to him. Well, Michael could have this effect on anyone, even the most hardcore rappers! Biggie was tripping up on his words, bowing down and telling Michael how much his music had meant to him in his life. Michael was, as always, very humble and kept smiling while Biggie just went on and on how much he loved Michael. I watched Biggie just become this big butterball of a man, and it was really very sweet to witness. After all, we are all just people.

Michael finally asked to hear what we had done, and we popped it up on the big speakers and let her go. Michael LOVED it and was excited to tell Biggie that! "Oh, let's hear it again", I recall Michael saying, and we listened again. Michael just loved it...and thanked Biggie for coming all the way from Philadelphia. Biggie asked rather sheepishly whether he could get a photo, and Michael agreed. A shot was taken, we listened again, and Michael thanked Biggie. Michael said goodbye and stepped out, leaving Biggie standing there looking completely stunned.

It will always remain a great, great memory.
