Free Music Review: I Pledge Allegiance to Nate Dogg
Hit: 5 Stars
As I suspect many fans have, I came to this release only after hearing Nate Dogg drop into some of my favorite rap songs to provide a chorus or hook. Like Michael Caine or Tabasco Sauce, Nate Dogg makes everything he touches better. I had checked out G-Funk Classics, Vols. 1 & 2 and, as reviews noted, its extended length and poor production dragged it down. Some great moments, but not a great album. I loved The Hard Way but still wanted that Nate Dogg solo masterpiece. It was with hesitation that I approached this release. I am so sorry I waited as this is a stone-cold classic.
After hearing MUSIC & ME I have no idea how this was not a mega-chart-topper. Vocals are superb throughout, guest spots almost all shine consistently yet never overpower and instrumentation and production are so fine that I will now seek out other works produced by McGrew & Rhone. I do not think it is an overstatment to say that MUSIC & ME is equal in its artistry to such classics as Isaac Hayes' Hot Buttered Soul or Bill Withers' Still Bill.
The smooth, sleek one-two punch of solo openers "I Got Love" and "Backdoor" roll out the red carpet and when "Keep it G.A.N.G.S.T.A." drops it is literally spine-chilling. Pharoahe Monch's contribution to the album's pinnacle, "I Pledge Allegiance" is spot-on and it is hard for me not to hit repeat and just play the album through that track over and over. Part of this is also due to the album's only drop in quality, "Your Woman Has Just Been Sighted," which can be faulted to underachieving contributor, Jermaine Dupri. The Dr. Dre collaboration, "Your Wife," picks up the pace again and the album peaks again with "Another Short Story" and carries on successfully through the end.
In summary, a must-buy, must-share - the best-kept secret in any music store. Required listening for any sunny day with the windows rolled down. Also guaranteed to increase your gas mileage as you slow down a little, enjoy life a little more, and extend your ride to let the album play.
Music & Me Poster
Nate Dogg is the undisputed king of choruses, bridges, and hooks, which would seemingly limit his ability to successfully carry a full-length album. Nevertheless, Music & Me is his third appearance at the plate. A little Nate Dogg goes a long way, so it's no surprise that an extensive A list of guest stars holds most of the album's appeal. Pharoahe Monch's limber and loose verses make the otherwise mediocre "I Pledge Allegiance" a pleasant surprise, while surface-level lyrics kicked by rap's miniest mogul, Jermaine Dupri, help bury an already weak "Your Woman Has Just Been Sighted." Dr. Dre, Snoop, Kurupt, and the Eastsidaz are in the house, of course, and Snoop's verse on "Ditty Dum Ditty Doo" helps make it the second best song on the album. The hottest track is easily "Keep It G.A.N.G.S.T.A." The beat is bubblegum yet menacing, a perfect background for the supreme combination of Nate Dogg, ghetto chanteuse Lil' Mo, and Cali's premier MC Xzibit. --Rebecca LevineRap & Hip-Hop Music CDs
