What's the worst fall off by an rapper from one album (a classic) to his next album which was straight whack. My three nominees:
Ice Cube - Death Certificate followed by the very disappointing Predator
Ice T - OG - Original Gangsta followed by the disappointing flop Home Invasion
Dr Dre - Chronic followed by very, very disappointing Aftermath Compilation
-
Predator was still a great album.
The worse fall off I can think of was Snoop's Doggystyle to the Doggfather. It took him YEARS to get his spot back.
-
westside connection - "bow down" followed by their dissapointing "terrorist threats"
the d.o.c - "no one can do it better" to the terrible "helter skelter"
-
from eminem show to encore
from the last meal to ptctbtb

at least there is a decent reason for that...
-
stop saying "Tha Doggfather" is a fall off! >:( ::)
even though it's different than "Doggystyle" it still one of the best West Coast CD's ever 8) :P

The 'fall off' from ''Doggfather'' to ''Da Game is to be Sold...'' is far worse IMO.

DJ Quik - "Quik is the Name" to "Way Too Fonky"
i can feel my karma going down lol
-
Doggfather was a great album. I gotta go with EMinem for the greatest fall off from TES to Encore.

snoops the last meal - paid the cost 2 be da boss
-
i´m prolly gonna recieve a whole lot of hate for this but i´ll say Tupac from Me Against The World to All Eyez On Me. now before y´all start to hate i should state that Me Against The World is one of the best rap albums of all time and AEOM is light years behind MATW.

Snoop Dogg - Last Meal to Paid Cost 2 B The Bo$$
-
definitely Eminem's "eminem show" to "encore"
also, puff's "No Way Out" followed by "Forever"
Kurupt - "Space Boogy" to "Originalz"
Nas - "It Was Written" to "I Am" to "Nastradamus"
Jedi Mind Tricks - "Vioent By Design" to "Visions of Gandhi"
Canibus "2000 B.C." to "E! True Hollywood Stories"

Restless to MVM was disappointing too
-
How about DMX Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood to the disappointing And Then There Was X. His first two albums were great but since FOMFBOMB he just hasn't been the same. If were talking West Coast, I'll have to go with Dogg Pound, Dogg Food to Dillinger And Young Gotti. Now I love both but they just aren't very similar.
-
Raekwon - Only built 4 Cuban Linx to Immobilarity
Tha Alkaholiks - Likwidation to X.O. Experience
Sticky Fingaz - Black Trash to Decade...but wait it gets worse
and possibly Ma$e - Harlem World to Double Up
-
Eminem: Marshall Mathers LP to The Eminem Show
Eminem: The Eminem Show to Encore
Snoop: Tha Last Meal to PTCTBTB
Baby: Birdman to Fast Money
-
Doggystyle to Doggfather hands down. Some of that shit on the A side I can't even listen to. There was more of a drop off between those two than The Last Meal and Paid the Cost. The Game Is To Be Sold was better than The Doggfather if anything b/c it had that mini movie to go with it. And the Eminem Show was better than The Marshall Mathers LP as far as content. Eminem's biggest drop off was from The Eminem Show to Encore.

Slim Shady LP to MMLP
Bow Down to TT but it was nearly 10 years later
Run On Up(song) to The Hard Way
7 Day Theory to everything released after.

it's not so fuckin strange when he lost his voice

Snoop from his standout classic Doggfather album to the Game is to be sold (most fucked up production ever on a snoop record except for the still bangin' classic diamond: still a g thang)
Nas from his movielike classic album It was written to I am (an album without identity except for diamonds: NY pt. II and Nas is like)
I blame both albums on the rap audience (including myself) at the time. People didn't dig their complete different sounding second LP's while they where actually at least as good as their first ones. Both artists started doubting themselves after bad reactions and came up with almost pure garbage third Lp's.
-
Xzibit - Restless - Man Vs. Machine - Restless was a very good album... Man Vs. Machine was wack!
Warren G - Regulate... G Funk Era - Take A Look Over Your Shoulder - Take A Look... wasn't a horrible album, it was quite decent actually... but it was soooooooo far below Regulate....
how about going the other way?
from wackness to dopeness...
RBX - The RBX Files - No Mercy No Remorce - his first album was garbage... production hit rock bottom on that one... but then he hooked up with Swedish wonderboy Polarbear on No Mercy... and it was great!
-
1. Eminem "Eminem Show" to "Encore"
2. Dead Prez "Let's Get Free" to "Revolutionary But Gangsta"
3. Snoop "Doggystyle" to "Doggfather"
4. Dogg Pound "Dogg Food" to the next Dogg Pound album (so wack I forgot the name)
5. Daz "Revenge Retaliation and Get Back" to the album after that (so wack I forgot the name)
-
When I first heard that song "Where is the love" by black eyed peas I didn't even know it was them!
When i found out I was pretty sure that was the biggest fall off and sellout move ever.
From original funky songs on" Behind the front" to corny pop songs on Elephunk like "Shut up" and "Where is the love".
-
Ice Cube : Death Ceartificated to The Predator
Xzibit : Restless to Man vs. Mashine
WestSide Connection : Bow Down to Terrorist Thearts
Eminem : Marshal Mathers LP to Eminem Show
Run DMC : Tougher Than Leather to everything released after
Method Man : Tical to Tical 2000: Judgement Day
-
definately
The Eminem Show -> Encore
i don't agree with
The Slim Shady LP -> The Marshall Mather LP & The Marshall Mathers LP -> The Eminem Show
bcoz firstly i think MMLP > SSLP and also in either case it wasn't the "worst fall off"....it was maybe just worse than the previous
