I go with  rhythmalism.  highly underrated album, maybe not by this forum (and hardcore rap fans) but to the general public, highly underrated.

Rhythm-al-ism, no question.

2001 was pretty much flawless for the first half, but after that there's just too much filler (same problem as the original Chronic in my opinion).

Quik's album, on the other hand, is one of the freshest records I've ever heard, in any genre, from any time. If it had been pushed right he could have totally changed the game with that CD, no doubt.

"Chronic 2001" simply cannot fuck with "Rhythm-al-ism."  Everything on Quik's album is better.

rhythm-al-ism by far.

and the original chronic didn't have any filler on side 2.  lyrical gangbang?  stranded on death row?  high powered?  bitches ain't shit???

how the fuck are you gonna say the chronic had too much filler on side 2?

"a nigga with a gun", "rat a tat tat"...that shit was cool too.  

and i should clown your ass for talking about "side 1" and "side 2" you cassette playing ass muthafucka.  this is 2003.  step it up.  but i had that shit on cassette too, back in the day, so i'll let that slide :)

lol... that aimed at me?

Those tracks are all cool, but IMO you can't put 'High Powered' up against 'Dre Day', or 'Nigga Wit A Gun' up against  'G Thang' or 'Standed on Death Row' up against 'Let Me Ride' to take three random examples... the first half of the album was the classic tracks. The second half was just the regular tracks :P

and that little 'side 1 / 2' rant? I never mentioned 'side 1' or 'side 2'. I talked about 'halves'. CDs still have a first and second half dude.

Oh yeah... and I should clown YOU for saying 'this is 2003', you no-calendar-having ass muthafucka... rofl

"bitches ain't shit" is a classic, but other than that, ok.  the first half is a little better than the second.  could you imagine if every album, the worst "filler" tracks sounded like side 2 of the chronic (even without "bitches ain't shit") :o

that's all i'm saying.

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.
