It's nice to have people that can debate, and we can disagree and have points and counterpoints and not have it break down to pointless name calling and other juvenile behavior, so props for keeping it on the upper level. There are a few people here who hold personal grudges and can't do that, as i'm sure you've seen, some interactions turn very ugly and personal.
Gosh, there's so many, it's hard to rank every one, but for Daz solos, my top 6 would be:
Revenge, Retaliation and Get Back
Dazamataz
RAW
Tha Dogg Pound Gangsta LP
DPGC U Know What I'm Throwin Up
This Life I Lead
Top 5 for Daz and Kurupt (Dogg Pound) albums:
Dogg Food
Dillinger and Young Gotti II
Doggy Bagg
Dogg Pound 2002
We All We Got
Top 5 for Kurupt:
Streetz Iz A Mutha
Space Boogie
Kuruption
Against The Grain
Tales From My Hood
Our lists anywhere close to the same?

I have to give Tales From My Hood some more time to see if it has any replay value but on the first few listens I liked it
I would put RAW right under RRGB...Dazamataz I thought had way too many tracks but the dope ones were really dope...if it was condensed it might have been 3rd on my list
as far as Dogg Pound albums I would put Dillinger and Young Gotti right under Dogg Food

Thanks for understanding; I completely agree with you about keeping the conversation respectful.
That's a great list and it's almost identical to mine:
For Daz Dillinger's solo albums:
- RAW
- Dazamataz
- Retaliation, Revenge & Get Back
- Tha Dogg Pound Gangsta LP
- DPGC U Know What I'm Throwin Up
- Only On The Left Side
- This Is The Life I Lead
For Kurupt's solo albums:
- Tha Streetz Iz A Mutha
- Space Boogie: Smoke Odyssey
- Same Day Different Shit
- Streetlights
- Against Tha Grain (Death Row Version)
- Tales From My Hood
For Dogg Pound albums:
- Dogg Food
- Dillinger & Young Gotti
- Dogg Chit
- 100 Wayz
- Dillinger & Young Gotti II
- We All We Got
I couldn't bring myself to stick to just six albums for Daz because Only On The Left Side is an album I really loved and still listen to. It's the same for Dogg Pound and Kurupt albums, it's hard to limit myself to a top 5.
As for Kurupt's albums, i know this might be surprising but i never really connected with Kuruption. Aside from a few classics like "C Walk" or "We Can Freak It," it didn't leave a lasting impression on me. I feel like he did better work later on.
You're right, ranking these albums is a tough task given how many there are, not to mention the compilations and so on and I'm happy to see Dazamataz making the top list, because it's an excellent album. Pulling off a double album isn't easy, and i think Daz nailed it. Especially since it had been a few years since he released an album he produced himself, the previous two were produced by Trippy Keez.

From about 93-99 he was a beast, including producing probably the best GFunk album of all time Conversation. I always give Warren his props. But to be fair, objectively speaking, he hasn't done much in the past 20 years, whereas Daz is still going strong. I think Warren had a good team behind him, Greedy Greg, Ricky Rouse, and a few others that he doesn't have at his disposal anymore.

lets say 93-2004... return of the regulator is one of most underrated records of that post 2000 west coast hip hop.
Also 213 album was a classic although it didnt have warren g production instead of "groupie luv" remix on maxi single.
after 2004, his fall off began with such weak albums like midnight hour g funk files etc...
and you are right about warren had a good musician team. as you mentioned greg, ricky rouse, del atkins, aj luke, sean thomas were on "take a look over your shoulder" and andrew gouche, craig brockman, marion williams on "return of the regulator". musicians worked on "i want it all" album are missing and uncredited unfortunately.
