Hit R&B group Jodeci's new album Diary Of A Mad Band is raising eyebrows of everyone. Produced by Andre Harrel, Steve Lucas, and Jodeci, this album has a little bit of everything. As usual, Jodeci rocks with the slow songs such as "Cry for You" and "Feenin."

Thursday, January 27, 1994 • • • • "the perfect rap album" II by LaNae Hill Collegian Staff Snoop Doggy Doggs' long anticipated album is finally here, and it lives up to its expectations. Producer Dr. Dre wanted this to be "the perfect rap album" and it is. Now that the album has sold over a million copies and the hype has quieted down, the truth is that Doggystyle is a damn good album. Snoop is good, no doubt about it. His cool, lazy lyrical voice is unique, evocative, and rhythmically complex. It goes perfect with Dre's thick beats. Dr. Dre uses beats from George Clinton, Bootsy Collins, and Curtis Mayfield (Superfly) to give Snoop's Doggystyle a new, yet old flavor. Snoop's writing is best when he pushes it beyond the obvious, like the elaborate death fantasy "Munier Was the Case." This album does a great job of introducing some great new Death Row talent. For example: "Rage and The Dogg Pound" (soon to be released). As for the lyrics, they're realistic and a little sexist. However, the sexist lyrics can be overlooked because the beats are so strong. This album was definitely worth the long wait. Doggystyle is an award winning CD worth paying $l6 (CD) or $9 (tape) for. Top 10 Singles 1.
