He lost a huge fanbase after Lynch left cuz Lynch was fully responsible for him even having a voice in Sac underground rap. Set'ripn Bloccstyle iz a Sac classic but NOT a hip hop classic. Its way over rated IMO cuz if u pop the CD in right now you'll hear tight beats, tight mixing, a 100% gangsta feel, great guess features............. & mediocre flows, average gangsta rap lyrics(even for the era) & a lame delivery. Doc was never a good rapper. Lynch's influence(production/guess appearances) was the ONLY reason that Docs debut album is worth fuckin with.
