Let's be real here. Even the most undeniably 5-mic album has one song that grabs you a little less than the rest. One song that you might even skip from time to time. I'm interested to hear what they are, so post 'em here if you've got a view. Thought I'd kick it off with three west coast classics...All Eyez On Me - What'z Your Phone #Need I say more? Pac shows NO flow over the beat what so ever. I simply can't listen to the whole track.Any others?
a lot of people will disagree, but The Chronic - lil' ghetto boy
Ill add "Braveheart Party" on Nas' Stillmatic.

Thought I'd kick it off with three west coast classics...Doggystyle - Pump Pump. - For me it just ain't the right way to end the album. For one, it just isn't that good a song. Snoops sounds threatening enough but Malik?.... I wonder how many people know that one of the greatest records out of the West Coast includes a dis to fucking Kris Kross?! Secondly, the track would have sounded better after Serial Killer, carrying on that dark vibe. If Death Row had cleared the Gz Up Hoes Down sample, that would have been the perfect closer to the album in my opinion.The Chronic - High PoweredApart from Rage's ad-libs in the back ground, I'm not feeling this too much. I gues it gave us a couple of classic lines from RBX, which he's STILL recycling to this day, but apart from that, I think Snoop could have dropped a cold verse over this beat. Without him it's wasted.All Eyez On Me - What'z Your Phone #Need I say more? Pac shows NO flow over the beat what so ever. I simply can't listen to the whole track.Any others?
