amazing, boutta listen to it now
Been following the release on dubcc & b1 finally its here
Yo, anybody, maybe the homie @1-8-7-Skillz, know the story of the "Eastside Party" joint with Nate that ended up coming out 2001. Off
the dome you can tell/hear that it was recorded during Tha Doggfather days. But why wasnt it on the album? I looooove the joint, especially with my breh Nate (RIP).
Like with Head Doctor & Midnight Love & joints like that u know it was due to sample clearances. But ive never heard anything about Eastide Party. Too smooth of a joint just to not use it IMO.

I dont know that either, but the Doggfather Tracklist is a fukkin mystery anyways. There are so many dope tracks they just didnt use, thats why the album in its retail form just isnt all it couldve been with all the filler songs etc. My theory is that they saved the song for an "Eastsiderz" project, because the original group consisted of Snoop, Daz & Tray Dee, and there actually is a version with Daz & Tray Dee performing two of snoops verses. Guess he recorded the version that came out on the death row greatest hits but they searched for some songs to put their project together and snoop gave two of his verses to tray dee & daz and chose to cut the solo version from his album.
Just speculation tho
PS:
Listening to the unreleased songs now, that "Gangstaz Life" is crazy. Long ass storytelling song with snoop absolutely goin in. Contains some parts from "Dogg Named Snoop" & O.G.. Guess he chose to use his already written lyrics on those songs after this one here got cut.

That LT Hutton instrumental #1 is crazy, I keep replaying that, the movie sample at the beginning is from 'Bugsy' by the way

That ruff mix of "Usual Suspects" is dope af, that beat is so much better than the one they used on the greatest hits
"Dat Bumpin" is also a dope song
"Dat Bumpin" is also a dope song
