First of all, I've got to give props to TBP for their amazing page!  Their 411 section is the bomb and they have some good quality Real Audio (a little to much Puffy though).  Here's a couple of quotes from their 411 section:
 
                Ya'll were swarming me with requests for Warren g's 'Funkness' vinyl.
                Yes ya'll, the vinyl was bouncin', bumpin', and bangin'. However, it was
                NOT any new material. It was a prepared bootleg with his hits from his
                2 albums. The only speacial thing on it for dj'z was that it had acapella's
                and break-beats where ya'll could do your own mixing. Sorry, I don't
                have it no more, but you can peep www.defjam.com and email
                somebody bout a copy there.

                New Ish. 92.3 The Beat outta LA isn't telling ya'll what there gonna
                feature. But sometime this week there gonna be unveiling bout 2 or 3
                more songs from 2PAC which will appear on 'Inside Out:Deathrow
                Comp.' The double-album is being replaced with tracks but sincea all
                ya'll boot-leggers got hold of the material its been taking off. However,
                2PAC made some more songs in possession of DAZ, SNOOP, and his
                other counterparts which may or may not be featured on the album.
                Both ways, the new songs will be on 92.3 The Beat sometime in
                October, I know this is real vague but you'll hear them for sure.

                Daz pullin all stops! With DAZ's recent reconcilation with cousin Snoop,
                he's planning a whole massive album with selects from No Limit, Warren
                G, some of the So So Def peeps and of course, DEATHROW. Whats
                dope is that, DAZ is planning to make the first single off of it a tribute to
                YGD: Tha Topp Dogg who was hot and killed a couple months back.
                Look for this to drop in mid '99 with the single released in bout FEB or
                Jan coming up.

As you can see, this site is HOT!, so peep it!


Bad Azz is about to drop his solo debut!  Most of the album will be produced by DJ Pooh and Ant Banks so you know this will be a bangin album.  Here's the track listing .  Even though Snoop's Dogghouse hasn't been updated in a while, it still has the newest tracks.  Check out Ghetto Star  featuring 2Pac,  and   We Be Puttin It DownBoth of these tracks are from Bad Asses new album.

One more Audio Related update. Check out C-Style's compilation.  I just heard We Be Puttin Down  by Daz, and Fo Damn Sho by Soopafly.  Thanks to G-Loccz Death Row News Page  for these tracks


 September 24, 1998

Check out C-Style's Compilation!  The Track Listing is at The 'Untouchable' Death Row Records Web Site.  It looks tight!  With a song by Snoop, and some new material from Daz, Kurupt and others.  C-Style's music reminds me of the 213's sound.


Warren G's first single from his upcoming album will definitely feature Snoop!  Hopefully this will be The Game Don't Wait. The Reunion is Coming!!!!!


September 20, 1998

Check out this song from Snoop's Smokefest '96 CD.  It features Nate Dogg, Daz, Kurupt, E-40 and a female rapper who I don't know.  E-40 shouts out 213 at the start.  It's called Rock Your Body and it's the bomb!  You need the Real Audio Player to here it.  Please don't bite this song from my site unless you give me props.


September 19, 1998

Rumour is that Warren G will be appearing on the new Fugee's album "Class Reunion".  This will no doubt be a great album, and Warren G will represent the 213 as well as he always does.


September 16, 1998

What's up everybody?  Huge update today to the  Reviews section.  I would love to get some 213 related reviews up.  If anybody has any done, or is interested in doing some.  Write me at marko_213@yahoo.com


I'm not sure who was the first to find out, so I can't give proper props, but Dr. Dre is going to appear on Kuruption!  Kurupt and Dre did a cut together on Sunday night and shipped the song by mail to NC where it will be mastered and put on the CD.  I guess the wait was worth it!


September 14, 1998

I've got to make an apology to the Death Row Pimps at DRHQ who were the first to drop the track listings for Death Row's Inside Out Compilation.


September 13, 1998

Today is the 2nd anniversary of 2Pac's death.  RIP.....


Check out the track listing to Death Row's Inside Out Compilation here coming from  OnDaUnda Productions.   Something that bothers me is the second song on the second CD called Snoop Dogg/Bitch Dogg.   What's up with that?  Snoop made Death Row the most successful Black Music Label in the world in the mid nineties.  I hope that Suge doesn't forget this.  This album is probably going to suck except for 2Pac's tracks anyway.  Drop an e-mail and tell me what you think.


 September 11, 1998

Did anybody else find that last night's MTV music awards were terrible?  The only hilight was the performance by the refugee crew and a hammered ODB.  The No Limit Crew sucked because they didn't let Snoop do his verse in Make Em Say Unggg.  If anybody else thought it was lame, E-Mail me.



 
I added a link to DRHQ in the links section.  Check out their Real Audio and news.


Nate Dogg's World reports that Nate and Snoop will be appearing on DJ Quik's upcoming album Q4.  This will be the party album of the year.  The only question is what year it will be released.


Nate's Dogg Foundation will also be doing some work with Death Row in the future.  I'll believe this rumour when I see it happen.  After Nate spat some disses at the Row on "Classics".
