- Source: Which Doobie U B?
Which Doobie U B? is the debut studio album by Los Angeles–based hip hop group Funkdoobiest. It was released on May 4, 1993, via Epic Records. The album peaked at number 56 on the US Billboard 200 chart.
The album title comes from a line in an episode of the 1970s sitcom, What's Happening!!, when the main character, Raj, is introduced to special guests the Doobie Brothers.
Critical reception
The Los Angeles Times wrote: "Despite some inviting musical tracks, Funkdoobiest's drone of dissin' and tireless display of bravado dampens its debut." Minya Oh of The Source thought the group lacked originality, "sound[ing] just like House of Pain [...] and Cypress Hill". She concluded: "With pop culture references and cliches thrown together their style really makes no kinda sense most of the time".
