Classic? Hell no.

Yeah, it only had a couple of real great tracks ("Easy To Be A Soldier, When There Ain't No War", "Don't Forget Where You Came From" and a couple of others i can't remember right now)

"OG to BG" was one of those Dre tracks originally, even during Daz verse he mentions Dre

I think the version that was going to be on there was going to be Dre feat. Tha Realest and Tha Dogg Pound for that track, but they wound up putting Soopafly on there and taking Dre and Tha Realest off. I have a hunch though that Kurupt's verse was actually the verse Dre was supposed to spit based on his delivery and tone, kinda like that Crooked I track "Say Dr. Dre"

speaking of which, I know there were supposed to be 4 "unreleased" Dre songs, and I can only remember three of them:

"Die Motherfucker Die" Dr. Dre feat. Top Dogg
"OG 2 BG" Dr. Dre feat. Tha Dogg Pound and Tha Realest
"Tha Ho Hopper" Dr. Dre feat. Top Dogg and Doobie?

But overall, the album was a hot album. Only thing that bothered me was Big Boy doing the intros on almost every track. Too many filler tracks too, if I put together the compilation, here's how the tracklisting would have been

1. Chronic 2000 - VK feat. Treach
2. Gotta Love Gangsta's - Tha Realest featuring Scarface & Richie Rich
3. Top Dogg Cindafella - Top Dogg
4. Who Do You Believe In - 2Pac featuring Yaki Kadafi
5. It's Goin' Down - MacShawn featuring Daz Dillinger & Tha Realest
6. Don't Forget Where You Came From - Swoop G
7. Like It or Not - Soopafly
8. Easy To Be A Soldier When There Ain't No War - Tha Realest featuring Swoop G & Lil' C-Style
9. Beautiful Lady - Danny Boy featuring K-Ci
10. We Don't Love 'Em - Top Dogg
11. Because of You Girl - Tha Dogg Pound featuring Tha Realest
12. Roll Wit' Us - Daz Dillinger
13. Late Night - 2Pac featuring Outlawz
14. OG to BG - Soopafly featuring Tha Dogg Pound
15. Wanna Be Loved - Michel'le featuring VK
16. Ride or Get Rode On - Bad Habitz
17. Mr. Officer - Michel'le featuring Captain Save'm & El Dorado

I bought when it dropped. DR's best compilation post 2pac. Anyone wanna up this thing in the usual spot? I don't have it anymore.  The worst thing about the comp were the BLATANT Snoop Dogg and 2Pac imitations via Topp Dogg and The Realist.  Obviously VK was a replacement for Rage but at least she had her own style.

I bought it within the first week of it being released, one of last good compilations that Death ROw dropped. I like about a disc worth of the joints on there.

Still waiting to hear some of the oringinals and dre remixes that were suppose to be on there.

How could you not? When this album came out, it was an automatic classic.

I actually agree whether he's right or wrong. Sure, there was a few fillers, but even every classic album has some fillers. Great compilation. 5/5. Mac Shawn rocked that compilation.......YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUU KNOW NIGGA!!!! Lol.

I purchased this cd just for the 2pac tracks..........I didn't have a comp at the time so I don't believe that I had heard either of the two unreleased songs........it would've been a lot better if it had only been a one disc compilation........dude who spoke in every song wasn't too enjoyable either

How about Top Dogg - We Don't Love Em. Great Quik production from my favorite era of his.
