No real need to comment on this – if you aint heard it you must have had your head buried for the last 9 years. Things start well with the world famous ‘Nuthin’ But A G Thang’. One problem though – how can you focus on an artist’s greatest hits when you only own rights to two of his albums? (“Dead Man Walkin'” is fairly weak reject stuff after all.) Death Row have got around this by promising 8 new tracks to sit alongside the classic material from “Doggy Style”, “The Doggfather”, and Dre’s “The Chronic”, as well as the not-so-classic “DMW”.
Now we have another Death Row Snoop release – this one a “greatest hits” package.

When Snoop’s “Last Meal” album was due to drop, Death Row offered the whole thing as a free download from their site, so that heads could check it against their rival Snoop release of back catalogue material “Dead Man Walkin'”.
Take the example of Dre who trumpeted the release of his “Chronic 2000” album, only to find that Death Row had beat him to the punch by releasing a weak compilation of the same name, and forcing Dre to move his title up by a year. Sometimes he finds other places to hurt them – like in the wallet. As previously mentioned, Suge doesn’t like to be crossed – but he doesn’t always hurt people physically. Filling the gaps, Death Row released a couple of sloppy compilations, some of 2pac’s back catalogue, and some of Dre’s greatest hits to try to bring the ailing label back onto a level footing. Unfortunately when Dre and Snoop (and the Dogg Pound) left Death Row, the lion’s share of the creative talent went with them. Still not happy with the way events were handled in his absence, he has picked up where he left off, dissing those who crossed him (and some who didn’t). The empire crumbled…įast forward to the year 2001, to find that Suge Knight is back on the scene, and intent on making green. In the meantime, 2pac was murdered, and Suge Knight, Death Row’s CEO, was locked up for parole violation. Shortly after, Snoop Doggy Dogg, left for the fresh pastures of No Limit Records, shortening his name to Snoop Dogg in the process. Somewhere along the line, the division of the money became a sore point, and first Dr.
They celebrated phenomenal sales which brought in phenomenal amounts of money.
How do you put Life Goes On DIRECTLY BEFORE Hit Em Up?! Whoever did this was just trying to grab cash, totally sad for such a legendary artist.Remember Death Row? Remember when the Death Row roster of artists were feared not only for their ability to put a dent in other artists sales, but also for their CEO’s ability to put a dent in heads? Of course everyone knows the story, and everyone has heard the different versions, but what it really boils down to is this – Death Row were at one time THE premier Hiphop label. Thematically arranged everything like a real Pac album. Bet most people have, I even mixed down most of his singles, unreleased and film soundtrack stuff onto one album. For EVERYTHING else, buy each individual album. Only thing it’s good for is California Love’s original single release, Hit Em Up (also on Death Row Greatest Hits, slight hum right before the song starts fading in from the Lil Ghetto Boy Remix) Troublesome ‘96, God Bless The Dead and Unconditional Love. Beat even sounds a bit different, Trapped and How Do U Want It have lyrics censored like “C Delores Tucker” on the later, the song arrangement was thematically terrible and unpolished too. One of the WORST 2Pac albums released IMO due to the censorship and TOTAL changes to songs on here like All About U where they totally cut Snoop’s outro for that knockoff rapping.
