Dog House Posse - Dope Gets No Heavier (1995)


New Orleans Bounce that swaps the genre's usual block party exhuberance for doomy atmospherics and bleak gangsta lyrics. Definite 3-6/Hypnotise Minds comparisons can be drawn, but the beats are still heavy on the "Triggaman" samples.

  1. Haha, wow, this has got to be some of the most minimal mid-90s rap production ever. That bass sounds legit EVIL though.

    Three 6 & the whole Prophet posse at the time (Gangsta Blac, Kingpin Skinny Pimp...) were such a huge influence on rap all over the south at around this time, though it seems like rap artists from most other regions were kind of afraid to fully take the plunge into full blown Memphis devil shit. When you read interviews with Paul and J nowadays and they're asked about their early devilish ways, they're always just like "Nah, I'm a god fearing man! We was just playing with all that satanic/occult shit." Were you REALLY though, dudes?
