The production on the first album is entirely westcoast done by a westcoast producer.

The image he was trying to portray on the cover was westcoast. In his videos, he is trying to portray himself as westcoast. He is wearing Kings gear on his cover, Lakers gear in his videos, rolling around in low riders.

All the guest apperances were westcoast artists.

It came out on a westcoast label.

This is like saying 'Stop calling Dj Premier an eastcoast producer because he went to school in Texas' his sound is still very much eastcoast :snoop: How about this, everyone can stop calling DOC a westcoast artist and his debut a westcoast album soon as the same is said of Masta Ace :dry:

The production on LL Cool J's Bad album was done by Westcoast producers but people don't call it a Westcoast album

Like mentioned before in this thread Dre produced Doc's album at a time the Westcoast didn't have a sound so nothing about the production reminded you of the Westcoast

As far as Doc's image he had the same image as NWA which was a rip off of Public Enemy's image

Ice Cube and Dr Dre always let it be known in interviews that they was Public Enemy stans

:jbhmm:

What other scenes were making tracks that sounded like this in the late '80s?



I mean, Geto Boys dropped Grip It! the same year, and it doesn't sound similar at all



No matter what scene in the end, it's all straight fire :whew:
