On the intro to THE HARD WAY, the members of 213 ponder the state of West Coast rap, deciding that they should hit the studio and revive Left Coast hip-hop. Considering that 213 consists of the legend from Long Beach, Snoop Dogg, along with Warren G and Nate Dogg, the threesome is in a good position to make such claims.

On THE HARD WAY, the supergroup offers predictably solid raps over some of the best production of 2004. Everyone from wunderkind Kanye West to Long Beach veteran Quaze brings consistently powerful beats. The group displays an unsurprising penchant for straight-up R&B on "Gotta Find a Way," but, of course, it's in 213's traditional gangsta rap that the trio comes on strongest ("Absolutely" and "Keep It Gangsta"). A particular high point comes on 213's sly, bass-heavy reinterpretation of "Mary Jane," which features a hilarious intro by comedian Dave Chappelle as the song's indignant creator, Rick James. More than just a superstar union, 213 is a collaboration of artists who have worked together from a very young age, and this connection shines through on THE HARD WAY.

5 stars best album for 2004! DPGC is here to stay
if you love that classy westcoast music, then you'll love this record. 3 O.G's and childhood friends finally come with the reunion of the 213 group which they started back before they signed with dre & deathrow records. the foundation of what is DPG spread its branches from the trio. this album adds a different flavor brang to the table. this is a classic in my eyes. i predict that this album will sell 3 million records. hopefully it'll sell 500,000 records for the first week like d12's album to go gold on its debut. DPG 2004 & BEYOND BABY!!! ~1~

5 stars DPG takin over 2004 and beyond!!!!
this album is hella dope!! alotta ppl been criticising this album too much, expecting another doggystyle or regulate. this album is by far better than any release this year so far. one disapointing thing is that it didnt have any warren G production. wtf was snoop thinking?... he got like if not the tightest producer from the westcoast in his hands, and he doesnt use him. what an idiot snoop is. but besides that, this album is hot! u can listen to the album the whole way thru without skippin any tracks. anyways, the next 213 album is gonna have atleast half of the album produced by warren g, so ya'll support this so they can keep droppin heat!!! chuuch!!
