He was also a key player on Snoop's debut, and in 1995, he and Kurupt teamed up as Tha Dogg Pound and released <I>Dogg Food</I>, essentially picking up where Snoop's <I>Doggystyle</I> left off. His trademark Cali flow and Kurupt's battle-style raps worked together well, proving that the G-Funk sound Dre had helped pioneer was still alive and well. Daz learned a lot from the Dr., especially on the production tip, and is prominently featured behind the boards as well as in front of the mic. As a producer he's worked with Tupac, Heltah Skeltah, MC Eiht, and many others. One of the last original artists on Suge Knight's ill-fated Death Row Records, he released his solo debut <I>Retaliation, Revenge, and Get Back</I> in 1998. While not a huge commercial success, the album showcased his well-rounded skills with it's infectious beats, modulating keyboards, and raw, intoxicating funk. His lyrics stick to traditional true blue themes of bangin', rollin', and gettin' his smoke on, chronicling a day in the life of a West Coast G. He still works non-stop, putting out numerous releases on his independent label. In 2005 he released one of his best works to date, <i>Dogg Pound Gangsta LP</i>, he also reunited with long-estranged DPG homie Kurupt, and linked with Jermaine Dupri, to launch another imprint called So So Gangsta. - Brolin WinningG-Funk/ Gangstaen720Mon, 23 Nov 2009 12:42:25 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.15281&rws=%2Fdaz%2Fmusic-videos.rss Daz first made his mark on Dr. Dre's classic <I>The Chronic</I>, lighting up the mic alongside Snoop, Kurupt, RBX, and Rage.
