Music to Driveby
Music to Driveby is the third studio album by American gangsta rap group Compton's Most Wanted. It was released on September 29, 1992, through Orpheus and Epic Records. Recording sessions took place at Big Beat Soundlabs in Los Angeles and at Slips X Factor Studios in Inglewood from May 18 to June 9, 1992. Production was handled by members DJ Slip, MC Eiht and DJ Mike T, as well as The Unknown DJ and Ric Roc. It features contributions from William "Willie Z" Zimmerman on background vocals, keyboards, saxophone and harmonica, EMmage on backing vocals, and guest appearance by Scarface of Geto Boys.
The album peaked at number 66 on the Billboard 200 and at number 20 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart in the United States. Along with the singles, music videos were produced for the songs "Hood Took Me Under" and "Def Wish II".
All lyrics are written by Aaron Tyler, except track 9 written with Brad Jordan.
MC Eight said the reasoning behind the album was specifically created as a soundtrack for drive-by shootings in a 2016 interview with DJ Vlad. "You don't want the mood to be so somber and quiet to where people start second guessing the mission." He claimed that previously gangbangers would listen to old-school funk such as Flashlight by Parliament or Heard it Through the Grapevine by Zapp.
