I'd have to say it's evenly divided between "Straight Outta Compton" (not even on there) and "The Chronic". The first was pretty much THE album that popularized gangsta shit, the second was the album that made hardcore rap into a more mainstream-accessible genre.

i would say straight outta compton because you wouldn't have the chronic without it along with an entire subgenre

I like the fact that it's more of a personal album, plus he touches on real subjects instead of the geto boys type stuff he used to do(dont get me wrong, that shit was dope too) But he also updated his sound, without trading in for some bullshit, it was a pretty unique album I think. It's easily my favorite face cd.

It's completely out of place for this poll though for sure.

Post by: Twentytwofifty on April 26, 2007, 04:12:17 PM: I voted for The Fix.
I love that album, I think it's great but has no business being in this poll.

Title: Re: most influential hip hop album?
Post by: 3331 on April 27, 2007, 08:56:09 PM: stupid question because the first hip hop album would be the most influential since it created hip hop. straight outta compton mighta influenced gangsta/westcoast rap rakim mighta influenced east coast but grandmaster and guys like that created all that you hear from the east to the south to the west.

Post by: MediumL on April 30, 2007, 07:45:11 AM: obviously it would be like Grandmaster Flash. A better poll would be what is the most influential album of the 90's.
