Deep Cover should have been on it

Top 5 all time

Exaggerate much? Classic album though.

Ya'll can wack me and troll me and Nosign me but the lyrics on The Chronic were average and with the exception of a few songs (Nuttin but a G thing, Let Me Ride) it was just a good album. I don't see what was so GREAT about it.
The production was tight and it sounded good sonically but I think The Chronic is overrated. I guess he brought a new sound, but the replay value is Meh.
Wu Tang's 36 Chambers album came one year later (11 months). The Chronic sounded better sonically, but Wu Tang could rap circles around the Death Row camp.
? =Snoop
Otherwise Wu>>>>Death Row
The Chronic changed radio. ? was a classic bro. -

I like wu tang but....
you're comparing this
to this
That's not a wild comparison. -
25th anniversary today

This and ? were like an event. I don't think there's been a record label to this day, or before that dropped two culture moving classics back to back like this. Ain't too many real hip hop classics, but this has to be on the Mt. Rushmore of Hip-Hop albums. It just has to be.
Wu tang did it back to back to back to back to back and you get my drift.

Thats gotta be the greatest run in the history of Hip Hop, if not the history of recorded music. -
