There were many gangsta rap groups before N.W.A Boogie Down Productions, Ice-T and Schoolly D were all early adopters, but they lacked a certain severity of image and the support of “Yo! MTV Raps” to broadcast it to the suburbs. Its significance as West Coast hip-hop and gangsta rap’s breakthrough album cannot be understated. “Straight Outta Compton” was certified platinum almost a year after its release - no small feat for a group possessed of such deliberately brutal iconography in an era when controversial hip-hop was met with corporeal political and community backlash. If you listen carefully you can hear the sedate, ornate funk sound of Dre’s legendary early 90s run snapping into place on tracks like “I Ain’t tha 1” and “Gangsta Gangsta.” Dre and Yella coated these songs in a blanket of hooky sample loops lifted off the funk and soul music of their parents, but flayed and layered in a manner not unlike the dense sound collages of Public Enemy classics like “It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back” and the Beastie Boys’ and Dust Brothers’ epic “Paul’s Boutique.” As Dre’s ease with sampling increased, he began to move from abrasive hard funk and gritty boom bap into smoother territories. If “Straight Outta Compton’s” stories were stark, the production provided listeners some solace. Dre, ‘The Chronic’ at 20: Classic Track-By-Track Review They were documentarians, shining much needed light on the plight of a class of increasingly disgruntled and disenfranchised Americans.ĭr. The lyrical content was crass and uncompromising, but as the group would find itself constantly explaining in interviews, that’s because the community that spawned the group wasn’t doing so well.

Dre on vocals and Dre and DJ Yella on production, and the fruit of their efforts was 1989’s “Straight Outta Compton.” The album bore traces of the playful gallows humor of early incarnations of the group, but the new material vividly matched faces and sounds to the heretofore-untold struggles of inner city youth during the crack epidemic. R.I.N.W.A ( Ni–az Wit Attitudes) spent the remainder of 1987 and parts of 1988 recording with just Eazy-E, Ice Cube, MC Ren, and Dr. The high speed, drum-tastic beat of 2 Hard Mutha’s and roaring bass, frequent claps and twinkly synths of Boyz-N-The-Hood (Remix) are just two examples of this.įor my conclusion, rather than giving a long, drawn out, detailed reiteration of the summary, I’m going to substitute it with the following. However, rather than being slow-moving, they are uptempo, matching Eazy-E’s rapping style. Dre beats, all the tracks on the album are of the same typical West coast gangsta rap format in terms of sound. Dre produced the entire album (with some help from DJ Yella.) Rather than the typical, chill G-funk Dr. In addition to that, early in his career – before N.W.A broke apart – Eazy-E had lots of firepower on the boards.

Nobody Move, Boyz-N-The-Hood (Remix), and Chapter 8 Verse 10 are all examples of this, as he tells tales of an armed robbery, life in Compton, and a driveby (respectively) full of vivid images. Never the lyrical wiz, Eazy-E more often than not, relied on his story-telling abilities to compensate for that. This style probably helped him gravitate to his comically inclined, but gangsta lyrics – “Take out the security guard, with the strap in my hand/Yea he’s wearing a badge but he’s just an old-ass man” –as it just somehow fit the mold. Combine that with his smooth, uptempo flow, his rapping style was a favorite amongst hip-hop fans. But as Eazy said, “I don’t give a f*ck.” With some help from the N.W.A crew, Eazy-Duz-It is a great solo debut effort from the E.Įazy E’s whiny, nasally, teenager voice was a staple of his rapping style. He and his Ruthless cohorts were hated by middle-to-upper class America for their violent, sex-craving, drug-obsessed, bleak outlook on life. Probably should have added something about the Dre beats somewhere in here too…huh…?Įazy-E’s (practically) patented voice and his gangsta lyrics made him a lovable figure within the scope of rap, but not so loved outside it. Review Summary: Eazy-E’s prevailing ‘hood nigga’ mentality, vulgar sense of humor, and storytelling abilities make Eazy-Duz-It a gangsta rap classic.
