came in here to see if the chronic made number 1 on the list ; it got the number 2 spot:beli:

illmatic is a classic and one of the best albums of all time but it's not better than the chronic. the chronic is not only the greatest hip hop album of the 90's but of all time. only album seein' it outside of the 90's seein' it is public enemy's it takes a nation of a millions to hold us back and even still it's interchangable. but the chronic is the greatest, best ever etc hip hop album of all time, hands down :yeshrug:

It's debatable, Illmatic has no weak tracks and no skits and is a better lyrical display and it's just amazing how Nas painted the streets and it's just well produced love the jazz samples too many rappers claimed the album as inspiration and too many tributes have been made.

Personally for me Chronic is top 5, Illmatic and The Infamous are pretty much tied. IMO MM>LET, Doggystyle>AEOM slightly, to me Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik is Kast's best album.

i hear what you sayin' and all but the chronic has no weak songs either. the skits on the chronic are all classics too. dr. dre along with the d.o.c., snoop, daz n kurupt, lady of rage, nate, and jewell all captured the image and sound of the streets and the l.a. riots especially with songs like lil ghetto boy




that 20 sack pyramid is the best skit of all time. that skit was so great that they even included it at the beginnin' of the let me ride music video :wow:




as far as influence and inspiration goes, the chronic changed hip hop forever. with dr. dre makin' g funk popular with the chronic that sound was not only big on the west but the east and down south too. as far as east and the south go, you had mc lyte with ruff neck, ll with his how i'm comin single in 93', biggie with big poppa, jermaine dupri with da brat tryin' to go the snoop route etc. the chronic's inspiration and influence was everywhere! hell, even adina howard's freak like me came after the chronic!

2 things...

1. The is ZERO chance I'm swiping through 90 screens.

2. Officially stopped swiping at # 72...IWW!

:camby:

I stopped when they had Harlem World 2 ahead of IWW and said something about Made having such witty lines as "Mase won't be the one pay for ya phone/Mase be the one to take you home"
