Once more, my big homies came thru with another classic on plastic. Vintage 90's Gangsta/G-Funk/West hip hop at it's best(and holiest). This time around there was production from South Central Cartel's Prodeje to go with the airtight production of then producer/GG member DJ Dove...the end result being a West Coast holy hip hop classic for the soul and for the speakers,homies. From the Ghetto Sermon to Anutha Gruuv For Some Preachin', the album is HOTTT! but I'll admit that the only low point this time around was Truth or Funk(100 times noisier than it was funky, production could have been alot tighter). But the lyrics and overall production alone earn Do Or Die a big 5 from Decatur Redd. My all-time fav is West Coast Roc(produced by Prod from SCC).

Every track one this album except 'Why Cain't The Homiez Hear Me' and 'Backslider', is meant to make you boogie, This gives the album a wholeness. I can't compare it to 'Gang Affiliated' or 'I Can See Clearly Now' because those were hardcore albums. Do Or Die is a gangsta boogie album. I wouldn't say that it is better than their latest gangsta boogie album 'The Exodus', that album is indredible, but what makes me freak out about Do Or Die is that although it is old school, I can still compare it to 'The (2003) Exodus' album and it still has that gangsta boogie effect on you. Anything that is old school and can still catch people and make them move, is worth buying. I am rating it 5 stars as an old school album.

This album was released in 1995,8 years later, I still love it.
In my Opinion,this album is better than 1999's "I can see clearly now", or last years "the exodus".This is the 2nd greatest west coast gospel rap album,to T-bone's last street preacha.tracks 2,3,5,6,7,9 are all dope.the only weak song here is "backslider" that lacks style Mr.solo,TIK Tok,and Chille' baby tear it up.

This group really showed up on this album...The lyrics are off the charts. Well written, well preformed, and brought to life through beats that not even mainstream rappers & producers can mess with!!!!! Russel simmons eat your heart out!!!!!!

I really think with this kind of talent and lyrical, spiritual, gangsta beat these guys are really going to hit the top!! I'd be surprised if Jay-Z himself could hold a candle to this album....With a strait forward aproach and upbeat, powerful, stand up and holla attitude, this cd remains a DEFINATE KEEPER!!! Now I said that!!! Ya don't believe me, try it for your own self!!!!!!!

GOSPEL HIPHOP AT ITS FINEST.I CANT WAIT FOR CHAPTER 3 FROM THESE LOCKES

P.S.GOSPELGANSTA TILL I DIE!!

If you are looking for a quality rival to Nelly, Snoop Dog, M&M, and others, you won't believe what you get with Double G. I first heard this group a few years ago and they simply blew my mind. It is refreshing to see a group that can identify with the street but have a Christ centered message. If you're looking for the hard beats, tight rhymes and head-bobbing sound, this is a must have.

This album is the best Hip Hop Christian rap album of all time. The beats are bangin and the lyrics are tight! I like the realism of the brothers that are keeping it real and not compromising with tradition. Some people still think Christian lyrics aren't rough enough. But I think lyrics of life and alot better than lyrisc of death. In Jesus name bang on!
