The Chronic is just pure art to me. That was Dre's genius -- to take violent, misogynist subject matter, really heinous stuff on the surface, and turn it into art.Sonically perhaps....but I can't understand people who complain about the lyrics. A Dre album has NEVER been about lyrics. And 2001 had some of the wackest lyrics I've heard.I can't really see how you would call it art either. Dre's talent is making music that BUMPS. But as far as musical expression his productions have always been very simple and basic. he means the artistic merit of the OG Chronic.What exactly makes it more artistic than the rest of hip hop? It samples Funk extensivelyLol @ people making something deeper than it is. nothing. but some people find hip-hop at its best to be a strong artistic expression, for various reasons. if you want to degrade the music to a lower status because of sampling or you find no value in it beyond bumping beats, that's your opinion.All I'm asking is what makes it any more "artistic" than any other music? Or any other hip hop song? If you can't explain that at least a little you are simply placing a label on something. to avoid going back and forth continuously on something so subjective, you're right, i am simply placing a label on something. if i thought you were actually interested in other people's viewpoints and opinions instead of trying to 'argue them down' all day it might be worth a real response.
