Here comes the review of the tracks on "damn near dead" that werent already on the lost dr files


Thinkin About That Murder: After a pretty long intro and some reggae like chanting, the song itself is pretty boring. Beat is simple and the raps are very agressive, nothing too impressive tho. Nothing that I'll listen to too often.

Hot One: Smooth old school death row beat, with dope raps being kicked over this. Couldnt really say more about it,dope song.

Damn Near Dead: The beat takes a bit to get used to, but after listenin a bit I really like it. especially during the hook. The raps are dope, so I can definetely recommend this song.

Gun A nikka Down: Bumpin beat and dope raps, nothing more to say once again. Guaranteed to make you head bop.

nikkas Going Down: Another cool bumpin beat, especially the flute is dope. The raps are on point again.

Crack Em (Remix): Y'all should know the original version from above the rim ost. This one right here has a different beat, its more melodic and laid back. Cool remix, can bump both this & the original.

Who Got The Hits: Classic old school west coast rap, dope raps and an uptempo beat.

What Should I Do: Smooth, jazzy beat with dope raps about the drug game and its struggles. Very nice song

Girl Aint Got No Time: Great old school beat, catchy hook and some dope ass verses.

Penitentiary bound: Beat is fairly basic, raps are pretty good but nothin that holds your attention too long. decent song

I'll just do a short post today, will igve you the reviews for the other OFTB songs which were released on death row soundtracks.
Longer posts/updates with the next artist comin soon




The original version of "Crack Em" from the Above The Rim OST. Classic song, dj quik hooks up a classic bouncy west coast beat and OFTB kill it. Posted the video for y'all here, pretty cool to see.



"Keep Your Eyes Open" from the Gang Related OST. Dope song, beat is old school and kinda sinsiter especially the melody during the hook. The raps are on point too, very agressive like we are used to from OFTB. Side note: The intro will be very familiar to y'all



Another video some people probably not even know of. Taken from the Gridlockd soundtrack this song right here, is a collaboration with death row singer jewell. Very cool song, beat is bumpin hard af and definetely gets heads noddin. The verses are on point as always and the hook is catchy as well. Definetely recommended, very old school sounding with some dope synths.




OFTB also contributed a song to the christmas album death row released in 96. The song itself is dope and very chill, but not necessarily sounding "christmas like" apart from the lyrics.

Here comes the first part of my review for the Death Row Compilation that was leaked by B1st in january this year


1. Mobbin Wit Tha Dogg Pound:

Finally this song is available to bump. Dre hooks up an amazing beat here, bassline is incredible, dope synths & hard hitting drums. Daz & kurupt kill it. Great song to vibe to. Y'all probably familiar with this song from the "Sunset Park" OST or the "2002" compilation by Death Row, but now the og version finally leaked.

2. 16 Dead Doggs

Unfortunately its unknown who produced this track, since the beat is very rough & gritty. Hard hitting dope bassline & drums and K-Solo kills it. Great track, definetely gets your head noddin.

3. In The City / Up Down

Dont know exactly what the correct title is here. Produced by Dr Dre, Kurupt & Sam Sneed trade some rhymes over a very smooth & laidback beat. Dope drums and a cool lil melody with some synths & (i think) a lil percussion added in. Danny Boys singing is also A1. Its more of an r&b song anyway since the focus is clearly on the singing, the rap parts are pretty short. Cool laidback song to relax or ride to.

4. Dank, Drinkin & Draws

Another amazing production courtesy of Dr Dre & Shawn "Barney Rubble" Thomas. Incredible atmosphere on this one, sounds at the same time very laidback but also menacing & sinister. CPOs rap style is very unorthodox but if you like his voice & rapping style this is a great song for you. Otherwise you still got an amazing beat to vibe to.

5. In The Rain:

A r&b song by Tyrone Wrice who you might know as a member of "B-Rezell" (They also had a song on the MWTC OST). Very chill & smooth song to lay back to.

6. Smoke On

One of the best songs on here. The production is amazing on here, very smooth & nostalgic. Great sample as well. Snoop absolutely kills it. Classic Dre & Snoop at their best.

7. Lady Heroin

The Original version of this song (theres 5 versions in total (!)). Produced by Dr Dre & Sam Sneed. Absolute vintage Death Row Sound on this. Too bad Sam Sneed never released an album on Death Row.

8. Verbal Shots

On this track Bustop & Low MB from OFTB, Tray Deee, Techniec & Bad Azz from the LBC Crew & Kurupt from the Dogg Pound get busy on a LT Hutton beat. Production is dope on this one, a great bassline, some hard hitting drums and the mcs all kill it. Definetely shows how much rapping talent death row had. Y'all should know Bad Azz Verse from "Krazy" on 7DT

Do you know, 'Mobbin' Wit Tha Dogg Pound' has literally been rumoured to be leaked for the past 20 years:dead:.

I've been waiting to hear this for ages.:lawd::to:

Apparently it was a scrapped song for Above The Rim soundtrack.

But, I feel like this jawnt was a demo for something else coz I swear I've heard the hook and Kurupt's verses on separate songs even the beat sounds familiar.

I love the Bob Marley sample on this track too.
