Mixerr Album Reviews #1,088

This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review CC - Dago Do Dirty.

Dago Do Dirty is San Diego G-Funk Rap at its finest! 3 back to back cuts you can play nonstop in your ride. It’s pure unadulterated G-Funk produced by VMF and Repo Ric along with CC himself. Dago Do Dirty was very popular in the underground San Diego rap scene at one time as the Dago Do Dirty single was released on Repo Records in 1993 on cassette only. Cars at red lights were playing songs from his tape. Everyone was bumping Dago Do Dirty and Personal at one time. CC was an artist that was signed to Repo Ric’s Repo Records in the 1990s with Big June. He and Big June were close homies then. Certain people were creating a buzz in the San Diego music scene and CC was one of them.


Dago Do Dirty was the song that made this single into a hit! Everyone was playing this nonstop back in the days. The Dago Do Dirty song was very popular in the underground music scene of San Diego, California during the 1990s era. The Dago Do Dirty song gave CC respect among peers such as Big June, The Green Eyes, Kutfather, and Jayo Felony. He and Big June were close homies then. In fact, this song is what got Big June to respect CC. He even earned respect among the late Gangsta Ern (R.I.P.)!

Dago Do Dirty is pure unadulterated G-Funk produced by VMF and Repo Ric with CC himself. However Repo Ric and VMF take credit on the most part. Repo Ric acted as both producer, engineer, and executive producer for this song and this single.


Personal was another hit from the Dago Do Dirty single everyone in their car would play at one time. CC tells us not to take shit personal. CC tells us also not to take shit personal when it comes to business. Personal detailed his life as a hustler in the San Diego streets. Life in the San Diego streets for a hustler is no easy cakewalk. CC breaks them off hard. Personal samples Bounce, Skate, & Roll by Vaughn Mason. Personal is gangsta rap and conscious rap about the struggle, fighting for one’s survival, life, and dealing with the pain.

CC is another nigga from the San Diego streets where everybody’s attitude is shady and fucking shitty. You got niggaz like CC that will gaffle ya. Dead bodies are found when CC hijacks cars that have Dayton rims (D’s). There are the casualties of a down murderous thief. CC came strapped in the 90s. He then proceeds to blast shots from his gun. He’s seen fools pulling jacks and then getting smoked like cigarettes.

CC claims there ain’t no rules in this game about getting paid. You either get paid or you don’t. CC made a name for himself in the jack scene. Most niggas get smoked for trying to have it like CC. Meaning that they don’t ever last very long.

As CC describes, he comes from a long line of hijackers, dope dealers, kidnappers, and car jackers. He comes from a long line of pimps and hustlers. For him, working 9 to 5 is jacking to survive. And when one time rolls by, CC bails on out. CC is taking shit personal.


Payroll is a G-Funk track produced by VMF. You can hear VMF’s sound all over this track as he produced it. Payroll samples The Green Eyes - The Struggle Is On, George Clinton - Atomic Dog, and Zapp - More Bounce To The Ounce. However the track sounds somewhat distorted in sound. The static in the background makes this track seem distorted. The track seems to have been unmastered and unpolished.


Overall the single is cool and great. Nothing excellent but not bad. But Dago Do Dirty is good enough to jam in your ride all day long down the street in a drop top or lowrider. The Dago Do Dirty single can be considered as causing music. Dago Do Dirty was a product with no buzz air promotion. Repo Ric should take some blame for lack of promotion. Thats one thing Repo Ric was good at or used to be.

I rate this single, Dago Do Dirty, 5/5*****!
