Disco de N.W.A: “Gangsta Gangsta/Dopeman [Limited Edition CD/Vinyl Single]”

a very interesting and fresh remix approach to two classic cuts from the "straight outta compton" album.

aphrodite has been involved in quite a number of remix and dj-set projects recently and the "niggaz wit attitudes" revival craze might have been one of the reasons to issue this maxi-single.

not unlike jaÿ-z, ice cube's vocals mingle well with the breakbeat rhythm and the result is a decent reinterpretation of a dope track.

however, if you're not a fan of breakbeat - or "drum & bass", as the average raver calls it nowadays - refrain from purchasing this single. for those who're into crossing boundaries and expanding their musical horizons, on the other hand this cd is well worth a listen.

cheers.

I dont know about the other reviewer on this cd. I bought the album and it is weak. sounds like someone got ahold of a drum machine and a radio shack mixer and had a weekend to do this mix. It does not flow well the beats are too fast. You will be disapointed with this.. Go for the best of album or the new Ice Cube album that is Great!

I had hoped to purchase the original song "Dopeman" but was pleasantly surprised to receive remixes.

note: lost the pass to my old account below, therefore i do the "copy & paste" thing. :P

It is interesting to see why N.W.A brought out this single. I'm glad they did cause it is a good remix of Gangsta Gangsta of the Straight outta Compton album. If you are really into the old N.W.A stuff then it is worth a listen but it is not as good as they were.
