Reviews Customer Reviews for Da U S Open Another Thizz Records bangin' album!! Rating: Many times when you get a collaboration of two artists, you get a rushed album, not really worth listening to... Well, that's NOT the case with Da US Open. I think it's one of the best albums to come out the Bay in 2005, if not the best one (I'm still waiting for Yuk's sh** to drop!). Man, what can you say? Mac Dre is a legend, and he was a legend even before he left us (R.I.P. Andre Hicks). He's one of the true pioneers in the Bay, and he's one of the two rappers that put Vallejo on the map (E-4o being the other one). He influenced so many other rappers, and helped them with their career, it's amazing. Mac Mall, a bo$$ himself, was first guided by Mac Dre, who was his mentor. They were beefing for a while, but they squshed their beef and came out with this album in 05, and believe me - 3 years from now it'll be considered a classis! The album is short and sweet (12 songs deep and about 45 minutes long). Mac Dre is... well, Mac Dre. One of the most charismatic rappers ever, his raps are smooth, laid-back, funny. It's just Mac Dre, he's just being himself, a real triple OG in this game, with his laid-back, smooth pimp attitude. Mac Mall came out very well, and on many of the songs he even sounds like his old self, rapping with passion (Especially on the song "Cuddies say Yee" - a masterpiece. This album deserves 5 stars for this song alone!!). The production is just perfect, handled by Tone Capone, One Drop Scott, Johnny Z and others. The bass is HARD on this album, man, it sure will bump in your ride or at your home stereo!! The music is different than other Bay Area rap, it's just got that classic Thizz Records sound. You also get great guest appearences by Dubee, PSD, J-Diggs and Rydah J Klyde... It's just a perfect album, so fun to listen to. It just makes you feel good, and even the harder tracks got that humor edge to them, since it's Mac Dre we're talking about. A must have no doubt. R.I.P. Mac Dre, a true legend. His death was a HUGE lost and he'll be missed for ever. However, his music will never be forgotten. Thizz for life!!!
Customer Reviews for Da U S Open Cd not what i expected Rating: i am a huge dre fan but this didn't do it. tracks 3 and 12 are pretty good but other than that i didn't enjoy it. peep some of his other albums though.
