Disco de Andre Nickatina: “The New Jim Jones”

andre nickatina bka dre dog is bluntly a under appreciated lyrical wizard. there are many rappers, but few possess the lyrical skills which dre dog has. you see wannabe rap artists like mase and puff on mtv and what not, but they have no skills, but rather money to back them up and make them famous, and thats what ticks me off. its people like mase and puff who shouldnt be known at all and its people like dre dog who should be world famous. i am fortunate enough to have all of dre dogs albums: i hate you with a passion, raven in my eyes, the new jim jones, tears of a clown and cocain raps. every single album, including his upcoming album (cocain raps 2: the daquiri factory) are a must buy. you will never grow tired of his songs because when you listen to any of his songs, you are bound to hear a lyric or so that will get stuck in your head. his lyrical skills combined with ill beats make for an awesome rapper who will keep your head bobbin for as long as you own his albums.

Dre Dog aka Andrea Nickatina aka Jim Jones comes tight on this album. His beats are some of the sickest around and his vocals are dope as they come. This was Dre Dog's first album and one of his best. My favorite track on this album is #4 Smoke Dope and Rap. Other favorite tracks of mine are #3 The Ave # 8 Jim Jones posse and #2 Most Hated Man In Frisco. Dre Dog also comes mad tight with a freestyle on track #5 Off the Chewy. If you like this album Check his second Relase I Hate You With a Passion. Unlike some clowns seem to believe Dre Dog has other albums out. He now goes by the name of Andrea Nickatina. I think only reason Dre Dog blown up big is because he is from the Bay Area and a lot of Bay Area rappers don't get much expousre.

I'm from LA, and I had never heard of Dre Dog until 1994. However, since then I've been a huge fan. Dre Dog may not have the huge financial backing that other, much less talented rappers have, but he has the skills and creativity to blow them out of the water. His raps are dark and complex, so you know that he definitely has something to say. In my opinion, this album is a classic, and it should be put on the same level as 'Ruthless By Law,' 'In A Major Way,' and 'Straight Out The Labb.'

If you don't have this album, you need to get it and his other albums: 'Hate You With A Passion,' 'Raven In My Eyes,' and 'The Daiquiri Factory.' Sick lyrics and phat beats characterize his albums. Whatever you do, don't sleep on the Most Hated Man in Frisco.

Most cats(mostly people who listen to tha radio) that had listen to dre dog had said his ryhmes make no sense, he has no heat,beats are retarded,blah, blah..... dont understand the origanlity and creativity that dre dog(Andre Nickatina) has to offer. All of his tracks are sicc Especially "most hated man in frisco","smoke,dope,and rap", and "the ave."Just because I only rated this album a 4 doesnt mean its not a great cd its just he has better cds and to me 5 stars are classics. If you like this then you will love "I hate you with passion" and "raven in my eyes" two other great(if not greater) Cds he has. but if u do not this cd or his other then i suggest you stick to your boring an played out mainstream rappers becuase right here is only for hip hop fans that know whats real talent.

Dre Dog A.K.A. Andre Nickatina is the sickest rapper in the bay. In fact i put him among the best. With that said this album has some classics for the underground scene. If you pass this album up don't bother buying any more cause it won't be worth it. You must keep in mind that this is a gangsta rap cd and it is as gangsta as is comes. The stand out tracks are "Smoke, Dope and Rap", "the Ave.", and "Off that chewy". Even if you don't like this album. Look for more nicky cause he varys his speed and delivery for song to so you never know what your going to get.
