This is probably the most important rap album ever made. It changed how the game was played and how it’s done since, but it doesn’t 100% hold up. Like many of its contemporaries, misogyny creeps its head in, some of the beats are repeated to their detriment, and frankly, Dre was always a better producer than rapper. But everything else just sounds soooo good. Been debating leaving it at B+, but nah, it’s an A-.

Eh, not really for me. The skits on these albums always put me way off too.

This one takes me back. I love the production on this album. I don't think any of the other 90's gangster rap artists ever pulled off the musicality that Dre did. It was such a polished sound. I can't get behind a lot of the homophobia and misogynist lyrics, but I still enjoy the album as a whole.
