Big Melanin-Deficient doesn't actually make ultra-wild declarations, it's just he's older and white and provokes knee-jerk reactions. Mel da Funky Eurosapien knows more about the context and history of r&b and rap than most cats in general who cling to this hiphop shyt. It just turns out he's a snide, abrasive white dude from Shaolin who says nikka when he's drunk, so people feel at ease dismissing his opinions. But the fact of the matter is the Fresh Prince of Mel Yeah actually is less a curmudgeonly hater than the weirdest poster on this site outside of Art Barr. I mean that in a good way, because Art Bizzy is his own entity, a ball of pure, concentrated light from another galaxy. Meltron 3030 actually advocates for Drizzy Drake da Emu Faced Suburban half-Jew GAWD, while being an unrepentant Wu Stan who denies he is a Wu Stan. He's like a bizarre collage of thoughts and opinions that can be insightful as fukk at one moment and somewhat cliche in an old school way at others. But he articulates his shyt soundly and flexes knowledge while infuriating mad cats, which makes him - like Artful Barnum and Bailey aka da kang of the coli circus - a unique and powerful poster on these boards, love him or hate him.
Also, is it really some wild, new shyt to find out that a lot of people take issue with "classic" albums? I can name a dozen I think are wack all the way through. And some of the same cats getting their panties in a bunch over this I've seen in other threads shytting on other classics. shyt, I remember when I made a thread about how laughably bad Warren G's Regulate album was - had nikkas coming for my head and shyt, no homo.
P.S. - The Wu double album is almost as overrated as Life After Death. Be mad, Mel.
dont remind me mayne, its the only knock i have against you

Did he still say "nine trizzay's the yizzear", or did he update it with "2013's the yizzear"? And did they bleep out the swearing?
OP is on point with what he say about What's My Name, tho. It is a corny song for cacs. I remember when that shyt came out, and while most of the album was better than that song, the cacs went wild for What's My Name.They ruin shyt when they act like it's the "omg coolest thing in like evar!!!". It was the song on the record they can relate to most, and so it got most airplay on radio and cac parties.
If the cacs left it alone, it'd be remembered better, but cac love brings shyt down about 6 levels.
"I'm reppin the LBC, dude!!! Geez up, and whores down!! Word to your mother!!"
so basically youre upset that the first single from the album is the song thats most known by the general public? this basic fact of life seems to really upset you?
snoop was the first mega star that crossed over, why thats being held against him i dont know
whats my name is better than 99% of all hip hop singles ever released
compare it to any of the singles that the greats have dropped...its up there amongst the best

West Coastin & Smokin
the 'general public' is probably more familiar with Gin & Juice. probably because like Mel pointed out, it's a better song
dont remind me mayne, its the only knock i have against you

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I don't think many people in here are chitting on it.
it was definitely popular amongst black people. but it had that x-factor for white appeal which made the song 'way bigger than it should've been'.....for the lack of a better term. you watch a '90s throwback countdown like what mtv jams had a couple weeks ago, and that chit was in the top 10.
its not really a knock on snoop or anybody. a lot of artists have songs like these. geto boys had one, DMX, bone thugs, etc etc. i'll even go as far as to say that snoop had one of the better songs in this category.
I mean, I loved the song as a kid. nowadays, I still like it but I usually skip it when I listen to the album, or turn the channel when I see the video come on. its still the chit but it wasn't really THAT CHIT looking back. it wasn't "gin & juice".

yea, I was saying earlier that I listen to "ice froggy frog" more than "whats my name" in hindsight.
