[Mietek23]

I like 'Pac but Ressurection OST isin't even in a Top 10 let alone the BEST from the West..

I'll go with MWTC slight ahead of Gang Related.

well, you know, i guess it's up to opinion. i would definitely include Bones... especially since i think many people here appreciate it (am i wrong?).

MWTC is generally one of the best hip-hop albums of all time so it easily gets my vote.  Gang Related has some great joints too, but the length makes it lose out.  A bit too weighty for a soundtrack in my opinion.

[Jay_J]

it is so bad that you forgot "bones" ost of snoop dogg....

The Bones soundtrack is definitely way too underrated if you ask me. From beginning to end (or almost). Can't say the same for Above the Rim (too many r'n'b, not enough Death Row, in fact it shoulda been just DR, just like The Wash shoulda been just Snoop & Dre, Doggy Style & Aftermath)

MWTC was definitely a dope soundtrack.. I've always been a fan of the Menace II Society Soundtrack.

#1.  Murder Was The Case

-this album was a MONSTER.  Snoop was on top of the rap world at the time and they knew they needed to capatalize on his popularity but they didnt have a sophmore LP in the can, but they had to get him out... Snoop had the idea to do some rap version of Jacksons Thriller, with a song and the movie... so thus came Murder Was the Case.

Snoops homies really shined on this record, the LBC Crew and Dogg Pound shined on tracks like "21 Jumpstreet" and "Who Got Some Gangsta Shit" and "What would You do"....

but to top it all off the two Monster tracks of "Natural Born Killaz" (which was origionally for the Natural Born Killaz movie) and "Murder Was The Case" remix. 

Also Sam Sneed and DJ Quik provided memorable tracks with Quik going after MC8.

Classic shit... remember I got it as a Christmas gift as it came out just in time for those holiday boost in sale numbers!
