I have, it's awful.
Gangster rap has become a parody of itself. Check out a book called Can't Stop, Won't Stop: A history of the Hip Hop Generation. Kool Herc's editorial says it perfectly. Gangster Rap is at this moment in time a shadow of what groups like N.W.A. were about and Snoop epitomises this.
doggystyle awful? no offence, you are from ireland. that music is not for the rolling hills of ireland. its for chillin on the west coast and smoking bud. how old are you? when that shit came out, there was NOTHING better. NOTHING. that album is on every, top 25 hiphop albums all time list.. you know nothing about this matter.
ganster rap has BECOME a parody of itself, when it was being born, it was the shit. original and new.

no credit to ANY SINGLE PERSON who posted here. youve created top ten rapper lists with no mention on KRS ONE?
please. do your homework. krs one and rakim are interchangeable at number one and two, but due to longevity, krs gets top honors this time.
krs 1
rakim
biggie
nas
kane
jay z
chuck d
kool g rap
eminem
ll cool j
thats the list. been listening to hip hop since 89, had this discussion many times.
My list on the first page of this thread has krs-one in it. I would have liked to have common sense or gza on there as well but they got worked out of the top 10 ever. This is what were debating right? While I love the first snoop album and both chronic albums I just don't get how anyone could have snoop, eminem, or dr dre in any way shape or form in the top 10. Dre is one of the top producers not rappers.
Seems the more you make
equals the loneliness you get

And you're from the ghetto of Vancouver? :rolleyes:
Your entire arguement is completely arbitrary, just because you're America's next door neighbour makes you no more or less of an authority on this than me. I don't like the album, and just because it was one of the better albums at the time of its release doesn't mean a thing. Don't get me wrong the production on the album is sweet but I think Snoop is horrendously overrated.
P.S. Cheers for the birthday wishes.

i dont get biggie in people's lists....ready to die was good i guess....never really liked biggie though....but life after death wasnt anything important....how do you become top 10 off one album? theres lots of other mcs more deserving of the spot...
and yes anyone without Ra in the list is slippin....ill have to think and get back....

Nah, your missing something i think. For one, that culture/geography etc. make a huge difference, like when you hear the beach boys in Belgrade. For two, snoop had some prime moments.

To imply that my opinion is nothing more than the product of my location is grossly arrogant and ignorant. What was in what I said that could be undermined by where I live?
Also, 'prime moments' does not constitute a good artist never mind one who makes it into the top ten of their genre and it is Snoops inconsistency that my opinion is based on.

my authority in this matter comes from 17 years of listening to this music, spinning this music and having over 300 BOUGHT cds of this music. snoop is not on my list. doggystyle as one of the best albums along with the chronic is. me living in Vancouver.....has nothing to do with my knowledge. but since doggstyle talks of the west coast incessantly i would relate to the album a lot more than an irish. i live closer to whats being talked about....

umm...hello??? zach de la rocha is not a fucking rapper. well he sort of raps to his rock music but i'll tell you if he was a rapper there is no way he'd belong on a top ten list for the best of all time. no disrespect to rage against the machine either, i am a fan.

He he ha
I'm serious nigga one of ya'll niggas got some bad mothafuckin
Breath up here hey baby hey baby hay baby gimme some
Bubble gum in this mothafucka somethin man lets gone
And get somethin to eat study long study wrong nigga
With so much drama in the LBC
It's kinda hard bein' Snoop D-O double G
But I somehow, some way, keep comin'
Up with funky-ass shit like every single day
May I kick a little somethin' for the G's and make a few ends as I
Breeze through two in tha mornin and the party's still jumpin
Cause my mama ain't home.
I got bitches in the livin' room gettin' it on
And they ain't leavin' till 6 in the morning (six in tha mornin)
So whatcha wanna do?
Shit, I got a pocket full of rubbers and my home boys do too
So turn off the lights and close the door
But for what--we don't love dem hoes
Yeahhh so we gonna smoke an ounce to this
G's up hoes down while ya motherfuckas bounce to this.
Rollin' down the street smokin' endoe sippin' on gin n juice
Laid back--with my mind on my money and my money on my mind
Rollin' down the street smokin' endoe sippin' on gin n juice
Laid back--with my mind on my money and my money on my mind
Now that I got me some Seagram's gin
Everybody's got their cups but the ain't chipped in
Now this types of shit happens all the time
You gotta get yours but fool I gotta get mine
Everything is fine when you're listening to the D O G
I got to cultivatin the music that be captivating he
Who listens to the words that I speak
As I take me a drink to the middle of the street
And to mackin' this bitch named Sadie (Sadie?)
She used to be the home boys' lady (Oh that bitch)
80 degress when I tell that bitch please
Raise up off these N.U.T's
Could you get some of these at ease
As I rhyme with the dog pound feel the breeze
Biyatch I'm just
Rollin' down the street smokin' endoe sippin' on gin n juice
Laid back--with my mind on my money and my money on my mind
Rollin' down the street smokin' endoe sippin' on gin n juice
Laid back--with my mind on my money and my money on my mind
Later on that day my homey Dr. Dre
Came through with a gang of Tanqueray
And a fat-ass J of some bubonic chronic that made me choke
Shit--this ain't no joke-- I have to back up
Off of it and sit my cup down
Tanqueray and chronic, yeah I'm fucked up now
But it ain't no stoppin' I'm still poppin'
Dre gots the bitches from the city of Compton
To serve me--not with a cherry on top
'Cause when I bust my nutt
I'm raisin up out the cock
Don't get upset girl that's just how it goes
I don't love you hoes--I'm out the door
And I'll be...
