The chronic. When that shit dropped it was larger than life.
The Chronic... just damn... I was in L.A. at the time of the release... the shit was just an unbelievable feeling... you were so proud to be from the West Coast... the dickies, the ben davis, the chucks, the flannels... best time of my life hands down...
The Chronic You can usually tell how old someone is or when they got into Hip-Hop by which album they choose. I'm not saying that's always the case, but it usually is. The original Chronic started a movement for the West Coast and G-Funk. If you were from the West Coast, you were getting major label deals, nationwide radio and video play. Nowadays, a West Coast artist can't even get play in their own backyard. If a person wasn't around to experience the vibe of the time, then they probably wouldn't even understand. Some guys know their history despite it being before their time, but it's nothing like living it and seeing it develop and unfold right in front of you.
^^^ Word.The two most important events for the West Coast was Straight Outta Compton and The Chronic. Both shaped West Coast CULTURE not just the music. When 2001 dropped I didn't feel that IMPACT that those two albums had, I lived and experienced the impact of all those albums. 2001 was just a classic album but it didn't affect the West as movement.
