I was 13 in 7th grade. That night my aunt went to rent movies at Wherehouse, which at the time had a movie rental place. I went for the ride, and it just so happened I saved up about $13 from lunch money. That day I bought Doggystyle on tape, since I didn't have a CD player. I was very happy. Then when I bought the CD, I was mad that I didn't get G'z Up Hoez Down... lol. Oh well. still, a classic.

I was in 8th grade.  I remember riding the bus on the way home and I couldn't wait so I could go buy that TAPE.  I actually got it on the 19th because the local mom & pop store (Berry's Music) always released shit early.  I had to walk up the store in the cold ( a 20 mintue walk!)

I was in 7th grade. I remember just crackin' that shit open and listening to it in my room and reading the comic. The memory that hits me the most is when I first heard "Lodi Dodi" that beat was so infectious and Snoop flowed over it perfectly. That song blew my mind.

I was 7, and I was probably watching some kids show..and thought Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit was one scary ass video. I didn't even know what rap music was.

I was 10 yrs old in grade 5. I dont remember anticipation towards the release date. I just got my hands on a dubbed tape off my cuzins cassette that he copped. Thats how I got into hip hop. My cuzins dubs.

Lodi Dodi was one of the immediate stand outs for me too, his flow was too dope. Thats all me and my cousins would rap for like 6 months, verses off Lodi Dodi. Serial Killa, Aint No Fun, shit the whole motherfuckin album.

I was 18 years old, first year in college. I still remember how everyone I knew was anticipating this album. We were literally counting down the days. I bought it on tape the day it came out.

LOL, wow!! I remember it was 4th grade, and my friend just bought the CD. He lent it to me, and  this was the CD that got me into rap. I remember listening to Nate's verse in "Ain't No Fun" and flipping out, cause I had never heard such explicit shit on a song. My virgin ears were no more after this CD, and it still remains to me as the greatest CD in rap history

Great memories... I was 14 and the biggest hip-hop fan - spent all my pocket money (lol) on tapes and vinyl. Didn't have a CD player, just a walkman, so if I bought vinyl I had to put it on a blank tape to listen to walking home from school. 

Remember how delayed the album was? People were tlking about it dropping all summer, then it was September... I got it in a little independent record shop on vinyl the day it came out; knew the guy behind the counter and he gave me a bunch of promotional stickers and shit that the label sent with the stock. I listened to nothing else for weeks and weeks after that. The vinyl is scratched to shit today - 'What's My Name' is barely listenable.
