So Ice-T's Cop Killer is West Coast?
or are gonna excuse that one because its not a solo record

Ice-T represents the West Coast and he's considered West Coast, even though he was born in New Jersey. It don't matter what sound albums have if they are released by an artist from the West Coast, they are West Coast releases.

You didn't answer the question
Fuck that club shit
I'm on that Dub shit

It's actually some tough calls on this one... Doggumentary and R.E.D. are suprisingly great to me. Quik's shit never quite grew on me like his past albums. I'm really digging Jay Rock and have yet to pick up Beach Cruiser.

1. Soopafly
2. Snoop Dogg
3. DJ Quik
4. Daz
5. WC

I don't anticipate anything coming out and changing my Top 5 except maybe that 1st Generation if that ever drops

You obviously don't listen to any new Westcoast music. Everyone you named is someone that's been out for 20+ years, and then you named 1st Generation.

If efrain's remaster of Haven't You Heard counts, then that one, easily.  If that doesn't count (and honestly, I don't think it should  ;D) then it's a tough call...

Maybe Red Album, believe it or not, but not because of any particular song(s) on it, but for the entire album experience compared to the others on the list.  (That's not saying much).  Having said that, the best songs from album choices on the list for me are from D.A.Z. with Still Get'n Money and No Hand Outs or Favors, and W.C.'s Hustla and What's Good (the latter is probably song of the year so far).  I also love "Nobody" by Quik and "Take You Home" and "This Weed is Mine" from Snoop ... but since this thread is about overall album rather than individual songs, I have to look at the overall album experience.  Snoop, W.C. and Daz's albums had too much filler and tracks I didn't like for them to be albums of the year.

Also, I should mention I haven't heard Best Kept Secret in full yet.
"Detox" is a myth -- Bigfoot, Loch Ness Monster, Area 51, Iraq having WMD, Detox...you get it now?  It was invented by the Aftermath marketing department to maintain the fans' attention.  Notice how everytime a new Aftermath album is ready to come out, they always mention Detox is next up?  Because they are using the invention of "Detox" as a way to market other albums.  The sooner you realize that Detox is NOT REAL, the sooner you'll feel liberated.  Oh yeah, f.u. Aftermath for fooling us fans.
