Classics Discussion: Too $hort

[bigbadbossup2012]

Pac the only artist with 3 classics so far. Cube got 2. Doggystyle got 100% of yes votes. They have their respect.

If anything the Midwest have been fukked over.

Common + Ye + Eminem = 0 classics

Not good enough to be considered a fair shake. Until gold albums or albums that took forever to go platinum from the WEST can win in the polls i wont believe in a fair shake.

Adrenaline Rush and E1999 Eternal are on my personal classics list

 

[SirBiatch]

Adrenaline Rush and E1999 Eternal are on my personal classics list

ok well I haven't done too much WC as of yet so we'll see what happens as we get through the artists

I'm voting no on Short Dog's In The House. I just don't think it has the quality to be considered one.

Gonna change Life is...Too Short to a 'yes'

Loved it even more second time round, and also a great boost in production over Born to Mack.

A few from my Northern California list to check out if you're interested

In a Major Way - E40
Genocide and Juice - The Coup
Seasoned Vet - Richie Rich
Young Black Brotha/Rapper Gone Bad - Mac Dre
Explicit Game - Dru Down
Operation Stackola/Lunatik Muzik by the Luniz
Til My Casket Drops - C-Bo

 

[SirBiatch]

Yeah - I couldn't tell you which song it was, but basically half of Born to Mack has that "Blow The Whistle" feel.

This was the interview:



@7:20

Man... "Blow The Whistle" is such a fukking classic. I remember clear as the day the first time I heard it. And coming from a guy who hated Lil Jon at the time, he had me like

please save those and remind me at a later date

the idea is to knock out all the obvious choices early on artist-wise and then get onto the really contentious ones

but if an artist genuinely doesn't have a classic, no point wasting time on them

E-40 will come up pretty soon!

So after listening to all 7 albums, what were some of the songs that stood out to you?

Out of this list I would definitely check out:

In a Major Way
Explicit Game
Genocide and Juice
Operation Stackola

Each album is from a somewhat recognizable group/artist and all have melody, flows, stories, substance and atmosphere.

I mean I only really focused on the two albums I played twice, the rest I kinda let them run thru without focusing on individual tracks.

But from Life is...Too Short:

- title track
- Nobody Does it Better
- Oakland
- City of Dope

those stood out to me

and from Get in Where You Fit in:

- Gotta Get Some Lovin'
- Blowjob Betty (hilarious lol)
- The Dangerous Crew
- Oakland Style

anything with Oakland in it seems to be good lol
