Doey Rock - Doe’s Diner

Kahali Oden - Doe's Diner

Producer: Nicatyne

Album: Mind Candy Re-Wrapped EP

Label: Unsigned

“Could it be? Another Booth feature sampled from Suzanne Vega’s The Diner?” Shockingly enough, no – on the latest track from Sunset Strip emcee Doey Rock, there’s nary a “Da da da-da” to be heard. Instead, Doey’s Diner finds the Los Angeles native drawing inspiration from an even longer-standing hip-hop tradition: food-themed tough-talk. Backed by beatsmith Nicatyne‘s appropriately spooky choral-synth boardwork, the artist invites his fellow emcees to pull up a chair at his eating establishment. What his patrons don’t know is that they’re today’s special; as he explains on the chorus, “I eat these beats for breakfast and then these rap n*ggas for lunch / Meat cleavin’, and for seasoning I lemon-pepper them up.” You know, maybe I’ll stick with a salad… or a nice glass of ice water. As hesitant as I’d be to let Doey loose in my kitchen after hearing this joint, I can say that it’s whet my appetite for fresh tunes. If you, too, are craving seconds, grab a copy of the emcee’s Mind Candy Re-Wrapped EP, available now.

Juanito_88 Tastemaker Total Ratings: 1077	Rating: Juanito_88's Top Rated Songs The concept and execution of the track is cool. I like DoeY's wordplay, but the hook could use a little work. This is a solid track though.

Nathan S. DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 2476	Rating: Nathan S.'s Top Rated Songs Z's stealing all my commentary today. When I heard this record the first word that came to mind was "solid" - there's just not a weak point anywhere. This actually sounds like some west coast rider ish circa 2000 - if I told you that was a Dre beat you'd believe me. Dope.

B=mc2's Top Rated Songs

Love a good concept song. Very creative. The beat was worthy of rap vets like Xzibit, or Snoop. As said already by Nathan S, and Jaunito_88, Its definitley "solid". The hook, was just a little to "rhyme-ee" to me. The whole song is like an eerie nursery rhyme. 3-Stars.
