GOIN' GOIN' GONE
DAZ OR 'MR. DAZ DILLINGER' HAS OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCED HIS DEPARTURE FROM DEATH ROW FOR THE LAUNCH OF HIS OWN MOBSTYLE MUZIK, LLC.
HERE'Z HOW IT GOES (USED FROM MOBSTYLE): "DEATH ROW IS A GREAT LABEL AND WE ACCOMPLISHED GREAT THINGS TOGETHER, BUT NOW IT'S TIME FOR ME TO MOVE TO THE NEXT LEVEL AS AN ARTIST/PRODUCER AND BUSINESSMAN" SAID MR. DILLINGER. HEADED BY MR. AL GREEZ AND MR. DILLINGER'S UNCLE PAPA SNOOP - MOBSTYLE MUZIK, LLC LAUNCHES WITH MR. DILLINGER'S DEBUT RELEASE "WESTSIDE RIDERZ, VOL. 1" ON DECEMBER 1ST, 1998. THE SIXTEEN SONG (PLUS ONE BONUS TRACK) "WESTILATION" IS PACKED WITH "THE BEST OF THE WEST", ACCORDING TO MR. DILLINGER, INCLUDING TWO HOT NEW TRACKS FROM HIM AND TWO FROM HIS COUSIN SNOOP DOGG. IT ALSO INCLUDES KURUPT, THA OUTLAWZ, BIG SYKE, B-LEGIT, CELLY-CEL, THE LUNIZ, 3X KRAZY, RAPPIN' 4-TAY, SOOPAFLY, RBL POSSE, DRU DOWN, MAC DRE, J.T. THE BIGGA FIGGA, SWOOP-G, AND RODNEY O., PLUS TWO NEW GROUPS - BLACKMAYLE AND TONE & LEX". WITH DAZ GONE IT'S NOW UP TO DEATH ROW TO CONCENTRATE ON IT'S REMAINING ARTISTS, AS WELL AS TO CONTINUE SIGNING FRESH NEW TALENT. IT'S A REAL SHAME THAT ALMOST EVERY INMATE FROM DEATH ROW'S BEGINNING HAS GONE BUT I'M SURE THEY'LL STILL WORK HARD TO PUT OUT THE HITS THEIR FAMOUS FOR! I'M ALSO SURE THAT DAZ IS GONNA SHINE ON MOBSTYLE, EXPRESSING BOTH HIS PRODUCTION AND RAPPING SKILLS TO THE FULLEST JUST AS HE DID ON DEATH ROW!
HERE'Z A LITTLE EXTRA INFORMATION ON THINGS THROWN MY WAY FROM 2PACONLINE A DOPE AZZ SITE THAT YOU JUS GOTTA PEEP. WE ALL KNOW THAT DAZ AN KURUPT HAVE BOUNCED TO DO THEIR OWN THINGS BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THE DOGG POUND AS A PARTNERSHIP ARE STILL SIGNED UNDER THE ROW. THIS MEANS THAT FUTURE DOGG POUND PRODUCTIONS LIKE THE UPCOMING 'WEST COAST AFTER SHOCK' ALBUM WILL BE PUT OUT BY DEATH ROW, JUST NO MORE SOLO ALBUMS. ALSO IT LOOKS LIKE DISTRIBUTION PROBLEMS AND DELAYS MAY SOON END AS DR HAVE A NEW DISTRIBUTER, BMG. THIS MEANS DEATH ROW SHOULD NOW BE ABLE TO PUT OUT WHAT THEY WANT, WHEN THEY WANT, PROBLEM FREE! FINALLY IT'S INTERESTING TO SEE THAT THE TWO NEWER SOUNDING SONGS OF THE FOUR EXTRAS ON 2PAC'S GREATEST HITS ARE COPYRIGHTED BY DEATH ROW, WHILST THE TWO OLDER SOUNDING TRACKS ARE AMARU COPYRIGHT. THIS MAY MEAN THAT AMARU ARE NOW ONLY ENTITLED TO OLDER 'PRE-DEATH ROW' 2PAC MATERIAL, MEANING DEATH ROW WILL BE FREE TO USE THE NEWER BETTER SONGS THEMSELVES. AN EXAMPLE OF JUST ONE MORE GOOD THING GOIN' DOWN THERE RIGHT NOW!
DEATH ROW ARE ON THE UP AN UP WITHOUT A DOUBT. JUST CHECK OUT THE LINE UP OF UPCOMING ALBUMS LISTED IN THE '2PAC GREATEST HITS' BOOKLET; DEATH ROW 'INSIDE OUT' (COMPILATION), THA REALEST, TOP DOGG, THA DOGG POUND, SOOPAFLY, DANNY BOY, CHOCOLATE BANDIT, V.K AND SOME INMATE WHO I GUESS IS NEW NAMED DOOBIE. THIS CRAZY TIGHT ROSTER LOOKS SET TO COVER THE WHOLE OF '99. IT LOOKS LIKE DR ARE GONNA BLOW UP THE WHOLE RAP INDUSTY FOR DAMN SHO NEXT YEAR!
AS WELL AS THE FREE MOBSTYLE CALANDER COMING WITH THE 'WEST SIDE RIDAHZ VOL.1' ALBUM, YOU CAN PICK UP A DOPE 2PAC CALANDER FOR '99! TAKE A TRIP TO ICD, INC. FOR PICTURE PREVIEWS AND ORDERING INFORMATION. THE ICD SITE HAS A FEW OTHER CALANDERS BUT THERE ALL TO WACK TO MENTION.

I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT ALL OF THESE SONGS LISTED ARE FINALIZED AND HAVE ALREADY BEEN MIXED AND PRODUCED, SO APART FROM PROMOTION AND DISTRIBUTION THE PROJECT LOOKS COMPLETE.

THIS TIME AROUND TRACKS WILL BE USED RIGHT FROM THE EARLY DAYS INCLUDING THE DOGG POUND'S ALBUM "DOGG FOOD" THROUGH TO DAZ'S "RETALIATION, REVENGE AND GET BACK", AS WELL AS INCLUSION OF SOME SONGS LEFT OUT FROM THE FIRST GREATEST HITS. IT LOOKS LIKE CHANGE REALLY IS GON COME DEATH ROW'S WAY AT LAST. I'M SURE THAT EVERYBODY WHO HAS STAYED SUPORTING DR WILL SOON BE REWARDED WIT' SOME THAT CRAZY AZZ DOPENESS YOU ONLY DREAM ABOUT!
IT'S ONLY A COUPLE MORE DAYS TILL THE "2PAC GREATEST HITS" ALBUM DROPS. MAKE SURE TO PICK THIS ONE UP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! ALREADY I'VE BEEN TOLD BY SOME OF THOSE LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET THE ALBUM EARLY, THAT THE NEW TRACKS ARE ALL TIGHT, SO BE READY! TAKE A LISTEN TO THIS DAMN RIGHT DOPE TUPAC TRACK CALLED "WHEN THUGZ CRY" THIS ISN'T ON THE NEW ALBUM BUT IS DEFINITELY GOOD ENOUGH TO BE INCLUDED. I JUST WANTED TO PUT THIS UP TO LET EVERYBODY HEAR AND ENJOY IT. "WHEN THUGZ CRY" HAS SERIOUSLY GOTTA BE ONE OF THE PHATTEST TUPAC TRACKS I'VE EVER HEARD, AN THAT'S SAYING SOMETHIN' WHAT WITH ALL IT'S COMPETITION. CHECK IT OUT RIGHT NOW IF YOU AIN'T DONE SO ALREADY!!!
I'VE GOT WORD FROM WHO LOOKS TO BE A VERY RELIABLE SOURCE THAT DANNY BOY IS STILL ON DEATH ROW. APPARENTLY HE DID LEAVE THE ROW AS SUSPECTED, BUT ONLY FOR A MONTH OR SO. I'M TOLD IT WAS SUGE'S INFLUENCE WHICH CONVINCED HIM TO RETURN AND STAY. DANNY IS CURRENTLY IN LA WORKING WITH DAMON THOMAS (THE WRITER OF DRU HILL'S SONG "THESE ARE THE TIMES) ON A GROUP PROJECT. HE WILL NOT BE IN THE GROUP, BUT IS JUST WORKING WITH THEM. DAMON IS LOOKING TO START AN R&B LABEL UNDER DEATH ROW SOON, BUT IS SET TO HAVE TOUGH COMPETITION UNDER ANOTHER OF DANNY BOYS PROJECTS WHICH I'LL GIVE MORE DETAILS OF AS SOON AS THEY BECOME AVAILABLE. FOR CONFIRMATION OF DANNY BOY STILL BEING UNDER DEATH ROW'S WINGS CHECK OUT THE BOOKLET OF THE 2PAC'S GREATEST HITS ALBUM WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE TO YOU.

IN CASE YOU DIDN'T KNOW, THERES A COUPLE OF DOPE NEW 2PAC VIDEOS AROUND RIGHT NOW.

****** G-FUNK EXCLUSIVE ******
DAZ & THA TWINZ "WHO GOT YA BACK"
FIRST OFF A QUICK APOLOGY ON MY SIDE FOR THE LACK OF UPDATES THIS PAST WEEK OR SO... I'LL BE MAKING UP FOR IT THIS SATURDAY WITH AN UNRELEASED EXCLUSIVE THAT'LL BLOW YOU AWAY!!!
RIGHT NOW DEATH ROW ARE GOIN' THROUGH SOME MAJOR CHANGES (AND NOT FOR THE BETTER).
THE UNOFFICIAL TUPAC PAGE REPORTS THAT DAZ IS SET TO LEAVE DEATH ROW FOR E-40'S 'SICK WID IT RECORDS'. THIS WAS REPORTED A FEW DAYS AGO SO I'M NOT CERTAIN OF DAZ'S POSITION RIGHT NOW. I FIGURE THE CONTRACT NEGOCIATIONS ARE STILL TAKING PLACE MEANING DAZ MAY BE GONE EITHER WITHIN THIS WEEK, OR LATER THIS MONTH.
DAZ IS/WAS THE ONLY BIG NAME ARTIST LEFT AT DEATH ROW AFTER THE DEPARTURE OF SO MANY. WITH DAZ SET TO LEAVE, I'M SURE SOOPAFLY WILL SOON JUMP SHIP TOO. UNFORTUNATELY THAT DOESN'T LEAVE TOO MANY ARTISTS. DEATH ROW HAVE RECENTLY SIGNED RAPPER MAC SHAWN, BUT THIS ISN'T REALLY MUCH COMPENSATION FOR LOSING THEIR TOP ARIST. IF DEATH ROW DON'T SIGN ANOTHER BIG NAMER SOON, IT COULD BE THE END FOR THEM! THEIR SMALLER ARTISTS CAN ALL PUT IN DOWN RIGHT BUT JUST NOT TO THE HIGH LEVEL EXPECTED FROM A LABEL OF THIS LEVEL.
I THINK WE HAVE ALL BEEN WITNESSES (ALTHOUGH I HATE TO SAY IT) TO A CONTINOUS BREAK DOWN OF DEATH ROW OVER THIS PAST YEAR OR SO. WE'VE WATCHED ARTISTS LEAVE AND HAVE SEEN PROBLEMS ARISE. I HOPE DEATH ROW CAN STAY AFLOAT LONG ENOUGH TO GET BACK ON THEIR FEET AND RISE AGAIN. IT'D BE TOO MUCH OF A TRAGEDY TO SEE THE WORLD'S GREATEST RAP LABEL GO OUT LIKE THIS.
