DOC might be outa Dallas but that album is West Coast.

Dr Dre produced the whole album

DOC flow and lyricism were ahead of the time

The Grand Finale (greatest posse cut ever) was the last NWA track they ever recorded together and Yella played the drums live in the studio

 

[Goldie]

I appreciate the hiphop lesson but I knew all that , still a southern rapper tho and greatest posse song of alltime? my nigga
