Overview

In Madd Dogg's Rhymes, OG Loc needs lyrics, so he sends CJ to steal the rhyme book of the famous rapper Madd Dogg. CJ sneaks into the heavily guarded mansion in Mulholland at night armed only with a knife.

The theft is one of the most consequential things CJ does early on. Without his rhymes, Madd Dogg begins to unravel, and CJ only learns the full cost of the job when he meets the rapper on a casino roof in Las Venturas. It is also the second stealth mission in the game, building on Home Invasion.

Walkthrough

  1. Drive to Madd Dogg's mansion in Mulholland at night.
  2. Sneak in through the side and move through the house crouched.
  3. Use the knife to silently kill guards from behind when necessary.
  4. Find the rhyme book in the studio and take it.
  5. Leave the mansion without being spotted and return to OG Loc at Burger Shot.

Tips

  • Stay in the shadows and avoid the guards' line of sight.
  • Stealth kills with the knife are instant when you approach unseen.
  • If a guard spots you, retreat into a dark room and wait for him to lose interest.
  • Save before starting; the stealth section is long and failure sends you back to the beginning.

Rewards and unlocks

Respect increases and Management Issues is unlocked.

Unlocks

Silenced Pistol (9mm)

Objectives

  • Go to Madd Dogg's mansion.
  • The main door is around the back of the mansion.
  • The rhyme book is in Madd Dogg's recording studio.
  • The first guard cannot see you. This means you can sneak up behind him with a melee weapon and perform a stealth kill.
  • The patrolling guards are shown on the radar by the red blips which point in the direction the security guards are facing.
  • A guard is patrolling the swimming pool area. Observing his route will allow you to work out how to get past him undetected.
  • There are lots of shadows in this area to hide in. Hiding in shadows makes it difficult for a guard to spot you.
  • A guard is coming.
  • Find a suitable place to hide before he spots you. Look for an area with shadows.
  • If the white blip on the radar that represents your position turns blue it indicates that you are in the shadows and are hidden from patrolling guards.
  • If you walk straight past the guard here he will see you. Try crouching and walking past the bar to remain out of his line of sight.
  • To stay hidden you have to stay crouched and walk past the bar.
  • The guards are using silenced guns. If you manage to obtain one it will allow you to fire a gun without being heard by nearby guards.
  • You need to take the rhyme book back to OG Loc. He is at Burger Shot.
