I bought that tape the 1st day and listened to it everyday till June of 93. One of the few when I heard it I knew it was classic. Pete Rock said something similiar and that freaked out reading that. Don't understand though why they always say this album came out in '93.

I was in my 3rd year at Howard University when this album dropped. You can imagine back then how different things were promoting albums. I mean The Source Magazine and The Box were two of the best ways to promote back then.

I don't even remember there being big fanfare about this albums impending release..it was like one day "Nuthin' But a G Thang" was on the box..a few days later it was #1 video, and shortly after that the album dropped.

the rest as they say is history. An all time classic!

What's amazing is it still sounds fresh. That and Doggystyle can drop today and still sound new.
