Rhythm-al-ism for me.

Vinyl has two sides as well by the way.

yes, but there's nothing funny about vinyl.  it has much better sound quality than tapes, and alot of rare remixes are only released on vinyl.  you can't clown someone for having vinyl.

Was that aimed at me, cause I was just saying that the dude could have been talking about vinyl, when he got clowned cause everyone assumed he was talking about cassettes. I got a lot of vinyl.

Damn this board has got to hell.  Rhythm-al-ism better than 2001 are you kidding me?  People on here just have to be different than the norm huh?  Rhythm-al-ism is a hot album no doubt but even if the production is equally dope, 2001 is much better in the lyrics/MCin' department.

CalebOhio: I think i can speak for many others when i say my favorite rap artists are white but i still want black artists to be dope. they are chosing not to be. that wouldn't be a likely believe held in a white supremacist group. I want Nas to deliver evertime but he doesn't every time Sage does. so Sage gets my $15 regardless or his status. fuck your status perception and labels you use.

Rhythm-al-ism.

2001 is a great album. GREAT. But it has too many fillers. Rhythm-al-ism is way more solid and consistent, keeping the same vibe all over the cd.

2001 is better lyrically, no thanks to Dre. That album started out good, then it got wack towards the end. I think Rhythm-al-ism is consistent throughout the whole album.


The fact that people don't see things the way you do pisses you off, doesn't it?

Lord you are right about them filler tracks,i can name about 5 other CD's that came out in 93 better than Chronic.

the chronic came out in '92.

name 5 cd's in '92 that were better than the chronic.  other than maybe ice cube - "the predator" or king tee - "the triflin' album"
i can't see that happening.  


in '93 we had eazy e - "it's on (<strike>(dr dre)</strike> 187<sup><small>um</small></sup> killa, ren - the shock of the hour, another cube (lethal injection), snoop-doggystyle and wu tang (enter the 36 chambers) droppin'.  so maybe you can argue 5 albums in '93,  but other than wu, every album mentioned was heavily influenced by the chronic anyway.  and you can hear some influence in wu as well.



rhythmalism is better..

I'll vote for Chronic 2001. Both Rhythm-al-ism and 2001 are excellent and classic masterpiece albums - BUT - on Rhythm-al-ism I feel Quik doesn't have quite his own sound. And there's also the fact that 2001 set the bar for Hip-Hop production when it came out. Not too many guys can get over that bar even today. Plus there's the lyrics bit - I feel 2001 had better raps on it, classic ones.

I ain't feeling some of y'all on the filler department though - there's not one track on 2001 that I skip or wouldn't feel as much as the others. To me it's solid.

There were better albums in 92oose beaides the "babbage"

1.Above The Law-Black Mafia Life(Tis is how real G-Funk sounds like)
2.Tweedy Bird Loc-187 Ride By(T-Bird kickin' knowledge as usual)
3.Gang Starr-Daily Operation-(This album is better than D-R-E's career from 92oose to present times)
4.Esham-Vol 1.Judgement Day-(First solid release from the boogieman himself)
5.South Central Cartel-SC Madness(Real Gangstas,Real Situations,Real Lyrics)

There! :oThe "babbage" ain't shit!I proved My point Shieeet! :o >:( :D

tweedy bird loc's album was terrible.  willie d's album was terrible.  black mafia life might have been g-funk, but it was nowhere near as refined as on the chronic (which is extremely raw compared to doggystyle).  and certainly big hutch recognized this, because he smoothed out that atl sound alot for uncle sam's curse.
