-

The Gangsta The Killa And The Dope Dealer &
King Of The Hill are banging
-
"all the critics in new york" is some dope raw shit too
-
CLASSIC: there still hasnt been an album thats been as good as this, every song is hot. My fav album of all time by far.
-
Definitley a classic album, although I'd say there was 1-2 skippers on it. Westward Ho, King of The Hill, Bow Down & G's Make the World Go Round are my personal favorites.
That Hoo Banging WSCG style was dope simply for that beat being better quailty than the original.
-
If not classic, it's still a great album that is underappreciated by the rest of the country, and by rap fans who didn't get into rap until 97 and on.
One of the dope things about it is that it actually had more of an East coast influence than most of the G-Funk sounding albums at the time, but it gave the album a much darker feel. Low key, this sound may have even inspired Dre's post-Death Row style.
-
at least a 4.5/5 it came out it '96 which was a great year for hiphop albums but also after Pac died so the album was a little bit overlooked but it definitely could be considered classic

It's one of the best West Coast albums ever 8)
-
yes its cllassic
-
I love every track from the album but I wouldn't call it a hip hop classic, more like a west coast classic.
-
i think itīs a classic.
-
A classsic album and historical for the coast. I think the political stance the group and the album took makes it more classic to me. I mean they were bangin on east coast critics, radio stations, other groups, anyone that stood in the way of good west coast music being heard. They took a BIG risk, like WC said in his interview with Nima, it could have been closed shop if that shit did not work. But double platinum I would say the message was heard loud and clear.

Classic Album One Of My Favorits Shit Is Listenable All Day Every Day
"Bitch You Know The Side, World Muthafuckin' Wide"
Most Def Not a Skipable Track On The Album
King Of The Hill Cracks Me Up Cube Can Go Hard!!
"... And B-Real Soundin' Like He Got Baby Nuts"
Terrorist Threats Is Hard As Fuck 2.
Oh What I Would Do For Another WSC Album~!!
-
definate classic in my opinion, listenable from top to bottom
-
Everybody has a bit different conception of the word classic. To me word classic means something exemplary and phenominal. Bow Down isn't exemplar and phenominal but it is a great album anyway.
-
For me, it's a classic, but thats always personal opinion. But it's a Westcoast classic anyway.
Only thing I don't like is that it's so short...

Terrorist Threats is an extremely dope album. To me, that was the return of Cube. don't get me wrong he spit nice on his last few solo's before this album, BUT not like he did on T.T.
