Background.
The Road Dawgs first started out in 1993 and, along with the Rottin Razkals, were closely associated with Naughty by Nature. The duo appeared on several songs by Naughty by Nature and Rottin Razkals in 1993 and 1995 but were unable to get a record deal. In 1998 the duo began working with Mack 10 and inked a deal with Virgin Records, who
placed the Road Dawgs in its sublabel Noo Trybe. The duo then began work on their debut album, "Don't Be Saprize".
"Don't Be Saprize" featured production from the Road Dawgs themselves, Clinton "Payback" Sands, Greg Royal and Naughty by Nature producer Kay Gee, who produced the song "Break Yourself" with Darren Lighty. The album also featured guest appearances from several prominent west coast rappers, including Mack 10, Ice Cube and Mc Eiht.
