Got to be Snoop. But really I'd fiend for another album by any Death Row artist circa 93 - 96, full stop. From Chronic to Doggystyle to Dogg Food to All Eyez, plus the soundtracks in between, you always knew you were getting the utmost quality. There's no way you get that fom tha Row these days, but even Aftermath or Dogghouse don't have the consistency that DR had back then. Don't want to sound like I'm livin in the past, but shit sucks like that!!

Good topic/poll. I picked snoop, but I'd love to hear one from any one of those you named tech.

damn can't believe i'm the first to say cube. i loved cube when he was political and didn't just make songs for the club. death certificate amerikkkas most, predator, even lethal injection were straight classics. i don't think too many rappers have been that consistent with 4 straight albums. snoop sure as hell isn't even close in the consistency category. but at the same time i'd be a liar if i didn't say that i wouldn't give damn near anything for snoop to put out somethin equal to doggystyle. NEVER gonna happen though. snoop NEEDS dre to bring out his dopeness. yeah he's made tight shit without him, but until dre does 3/4 of the beats for a snoop album, it won't compare. peace

Im gonna have to go with Slick Rick!!!  He paved the way for all these rappers.  Hes was doing the flossy rhymes when thes new rappers were babies.  He paved the way for todays rappers.  But if Snoop ever did another doggystyle then fuck the west cost would be on top ONCE AGAIN!!!

Personally I'd say a kurupt solo circa 95, he ripped it hard on dogg food and ive always wanted to see if he could do it solo, but he fell off just b4 he got the chance to do a solo. I'm sure hes got enuff unreleased material from around that period in Tha Rows vaults tho, they should look at releasing that before against the grain.

But from the rappers u've got up there id say the D.O.C.

I dont think he even got the chance to reach the peak of what he could achieve behind the mic, probably one of hip hops greatest losses.

I gotta go with Ice Cube...he was at his best in 90-93.  That's followed closely by D.O.C.
