Has Anyone REALLY Listened to "Skandalouz" by 2Pac?

[Aje]

This beat is absurd! Daz is a monster on the boards. Obviously, those in the know have always been mindful of this fact, but just listening to this record now, after al thees years, and experiencing all the elements of the track - while NOT even high - is amazing.

PS - I ain't a Pac dikkryder.

BIG is my GOAT!

This beat almost sounds as though it's being played live.

Production on that song has always been one of my favorites....Nate Dogg with the classic chorus........

DJ Quik took it to another level.

Lyrics are generic basic and forgettable though..
You might recall a line or two, but generally they dont stick with you.

Quik on the assist

DX: I just know “Skandalouz” wouldn’t be the classic it is without the talk box [you added to it].

DJ Quik: Yeah, I touched [that record]. I had my boy, Cornelius Mims, play bass on it. That wasDaz [Dillinger]’s beat. Daz shot it to me and I really made it a record that they wouldn’t have to clear a sample with. I played Rhodes [electric piano] on there too. I was coming.

It is, Death Row used a lot of live instruments on their records.

The real great rappers, technically speaking, have lyrics that remain in your system and you can easily recall them many years later. They dont fade away like a fart in the wind.
An average hype rapper rambling on and on, repeating the same words and structures in all his songs diminishes the quality of his lyrics and you cant tell which songs certain lines and passages are from.
