Mac Dre takes his counterpart to
the next level by turning thè

the DVD and effbrdessly wraps the

bulent hip-hop amusement
The underground Vallejo, Calif.,
hip-hop legend, hit local record
stores once again with the
December 2003 release of “Treal
TV” the DVD, hosted by Thizzelle
Washington-Dre’s alter ego.
“Treal TV” contains concert
footage, stunts, street brawls and
extreme sideshoXvs, forming 35
chapters of pure, uncut, raw hip
hop product. An amateur free
style chapter is sure to make
onlookers fall out of their seats
with laughter. Locals might recog
nize the glimpse in the concert
footage of the July 2003 show at
the Roseland Theatre in down
town Pordand.
The highlight of the DVD
appears in the Special Features
section, which is chock-full of rare
Dre music videos.
“The video for the classic Dre
cut ‘Fire’ is sho’nuff genius. Mac
Drè is pimp. He’s on a level .that no
other rapper could ever achieve,”
hollered one loyal Dre fan.
The DVD also takes the hip-hop
devotee on a ride, through one of
Dre’s many Vallejo homes, proving
that even an underground rap star
can paday a 14-year career into rich
es and luxury for his whole crew.
During one chapter, Dre
explains that every time he turns
around, he's back in jail. He goes
on to say that every time he gets
out, he buys a new "whip" or vehi
cle. The most impressive whip he
shows off is a 1967 Mercury
Cougar on gold Dayton 100 spoke
rims. Gangsta! Gangsta! Gangsta!
Dre started his career in 1989
with the release of the EP "What's
Really Going On?" and has-worked
on or produced an album every
year since then. His album catalog
contains over 20 tides, all released
without major label backing.
The Special Features section
also contains a brief Dre biogra
phy with his account of an early
‘90s incarceration for conspiracy
to commit bank robbery.
While serving his prison bid, Dre
recorded “Back in‘Da’ Hood” and
“Young Black Brother” over the
phone Dre was the first rapper to
record an album this way. According
to ‘Treal TV” the album “Back in
Da’ Hood” sold over 40,000 records
on word of mouth alone
“Treal TV” is guaranteed to
please even the average music fan.
“Treal TV” is available online
and at independent record stores
all over downtown Pordand, so
don't go looking in the mall for
this one.
And remember-keep it “treal.”
