213 - The Hard Way (1 Viewer)

[leathaface]

213 was formed by Snoop Dogg, Warren G (Regulators), Nate Dogg (Never Leave Me Alone) back before they were famous... I believe that 213 meant the 3 guys from 21st Street (where they always claim they gang was at).

After multiplatinum successes, Nate, Snoop and Warren returns and dropped the Hard Way... I love this album and its the current album I'm listening to, Nate Dogg outshines the others on this album. Anyone got this album? Its much better then much of the hip hop shit that's out on the radio now... speaking of radio... how is Groupie Luv on the radio? Is it getting love on the radio?

Discuss 213... or discuss... whether these guys are better off as a group or as solo artists?

 

[Reshie]

thats soo stoopid they should have stayed as solo artists..specially nate dogg...but warren G is like half the time releases crap music

 

[breaking]

warren G is probably the only rap artist i like.

I havent heard Groupie Luv on radio yet in Oz, but in the US it gets heaps of air time. Nate Dogg is the best of the three. Snoop Dogg is just ridiculous now, he makes more party hits than proper rap. Warren G, well its good to hear him again, its been quite a while since his last album.

.......I believe that 213 meant the 3 guys from 21st Street (where they always claim they gang was at).

213 is The area code for central Los Angeles, namely downtown LA and surrounding cities. Long beach, watts etc

213 was also the aparetment number of the serial killer Jeffery Dahmer, the name of a Slayer song based on said serial killer, and i believe its some police radio code for something. your right about the area code thing too

haha snoop dogg is by FAR the most talented of the lot

 

[nick1048]

snoop has an annoying voice lmao, I like the regulatorz and nate who is recently back in the mainstream game.

 

[CharlieB]

.........and i believe its some police radio code for something. your right about the area code thing too

the famous police radio code is '187'. the code for homicide.

 

[funniboi]

i reckon it was a good idea for them 3 to join up again,

it'll get them some attention, and shit -- and bring them back up,

cause they've dropped heaps, comparing old school trax to their new ones.

=)

 

[dangerousdave]

Nate Dogg is the best out of them all, even though he doesnt rap.

 

[hiphophorray123]

this albums shit, snoops washed up, warren g can't seem to bring out any decent shit, im gettin sick of nate dogg, jazze phae puts him to shame, u should hear jaz on 'lets get away' by T.I but i dont think anybody who listens to the radio would hear that because all they play is sell out rap like ja rule and all that girly pop shit

time to get into some REAL hip hop albums instead of 'the hard way'

and yes 213 is named that because of the area code they grew up in...not jeffery dahmar and not 21st street lol

get jay-z's old albums, nas's 'illmatic' or any album by the roots and listen to some REAL music

 

[masteraal]

well i think its a mad cd....i love it

haha...I need a bitch...funny song..lol

3 of the best artists combined into one group..cant get any better...then again there are a lot of ppl in my "best artist" category

LOL

 

[breaking]

or any album by the roots and listen to some REAL music

werd. :uhhuh:

 

[hiphophorray123]

i just got a 3 cd set of the roots 'unreleased, rarities and remixes and live performances' its sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good. Undoubtebly one of the best and most creative rap groups/bands ever. I'd kill to see them live

 

[illmatic]

You can't dance to Illmatic - that's why people like Ja Rule and Chingy exist - to make club music.
And there you go again bringing up T.I, bringing up irrelevant facts..

i just got a 3 cd set of the roots 'unreleased, rarities and remixes and live performances' its sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good. Undoubtebly one of the best and most creative rap groups/bands ever. I'd kill to see them live

this is about 213, not the roots lol.. Again you're bringing up random shit.


But i do agree. This could have been a killer album with these 3 togethor, but as usual it fucks up. It's crap crap crap crap... Music belongs on the dance floor i suppose

this is about 213, not the roots lol.. Again you're bringing up random shit.

no its not - HHH mentioned the roots, i quoted him agreeing with him, and he then mentioned the cd he had recently bought.

 

[hiphophorray123]

breaking agreed with a 'roots' comment i made ages ago, i was telling HIM, i wasn't saying random shit idiot.

as i told you i got off on tangents just like word association....nate dogg....jazze phae....T.I.

and i never said you can dance to illmatic??? :S

putting words in someones mouth (or um well the internet related version of that saying) is just as bad as saying random shit

 

[ohwhenthesaints]

Warren G/Nate Dogg - Regulate

One of the best songs ever.

 

[Supra]

i downloaded this album ages ago and it was a fukn waste of time i liked one song and i cant even remember it now...was this album a failure in the US? im guessing it wud have been

 

[illmatic]

sorry then.
