it could be that chad, but im from the uk and hhc (british hip hop mag) fucking hated this album & warren g. alot of my friends who dont like rap thought this was a great cd back in the day also
it depends on the reviewer also, if a reviewer doesnt like west coast music or indeed the rapper, the reviews are never going to be that good. i know warren g aint a lyrical assassin so to speak but the whole album is great not 1 skip over track evert track is great. same with dogg food. i played it for a friend on saturday and he was amazed by it. he had heard a lot of the pound solo stuff & there newer stuff he couldnt believe he hadnt heard it ( he had heard nyny,bomb azz pussy, lets playhouse).
lets face it the west coast ruled the 90s lol

yes g funk classic is a classic. cost me £18.99 way back when. just was playing that and dogg food this weekend.
i picked 5 from ya list but could of picked more

They only gave it 3.5,so "East Coast heads" don´t feel the same way... could it be that it´s just a "West Coast Classic"?

I know warren g ain't a lyrical assassin so to speak but the whole album is great not 1 skip over track every track is great.

I know HHC,they hated West Coast rap. They Gave The Chronic 3.5,Shock Of The Hour 1  :o  :-X :-[ >:(
They was on some anti Gangster Rap shit,and loved Alternative Rap (Native tongues etc.) to death.  :-\
Anyway... I personally would agree that Warren's first album is pretty dope and a West Coast classic... but not sure if it's a overall classic.

when it comes to the criteria the source is looking for i have to say that

the pharcyde - bizarre ride II the pharcyde is definitely a classic based on lyrics, superb production by j-swift and that shit is one of the most original and innovative albums ever with its various subject matters.

cypress hill - cypress hill again is another pure classic.. the lyrics by breal were sick and sen dog was a good back up, muggs just went above n beyond with the production... dre and rza bit some styles from muggs no joke.. the shit was innovative.. they were the first to talk about WEED! look how many people they influenced.. snoop, bone, redman, etc.

n.w.a - niggaz4life ... the lyrics and production fuckin top notch shit.. no real innovation but u heard some of the beginnings of G-Funk on songs like alwayz into Somethin

wsc - bow down ... lyrics production classic.. first rap supergroup..

It's a classic in my eyes, but i'm a big Dogg Pound Gang fan. The beats are great, but like the review said the lyrics are "sub-par".
I really can't choose how many mics it should get, but 2 and ½? :P

2.5 is pretty harsh... that's straight hating.
That said i don't think the album is all that either,it don't have any stand out tracks or any wak tracks. (if that makes any sense to you?).  :P ;)
I would probably rate it around 3-3.5.... (in other words average)  ;)
