    Alright lets get dusty. How would you rank these indisputable Death Row classics? Excluding the soundtracks (and Doggfather) but add em in your rankings if you want

    I would probably switch 4 and 5 and that would be my list. Has been ages since I listened to them though so I dunno for sure

    Chronic and Doggystyle >>>>>>>> the rest though

    I've acctualy never given these albums much time tbh...kind of oversaturated my self on 90s west coast hiphop as a kid and never really got into it since.

    Dogg Food is a great album but I'm always taken aback by how vicious and hungry Kurupt sounds when he comes on. He murders every single verse. A Death Row era Kurupt solo produced by Dre would have been some all-time s---. That being said Tha Streetz Iz A Mutha is a stone cold classic

    Absolutely worth taking the time to try em out. Genre-defining music with an influence you can still hear everywhere today. I'd recommend at least checking out the Chronic and Doggystyle if you havent already. And then AEOM.

    Dre produced album would be a classic today, but we all know it was Daz, who made so many great bangers back then. Dre name would be for recognition more tbh.

    In terms of personal preference?
    7 day theory
    Doggystyle
    All eyez on me
    Chronic
    Dogg Food

    7 Day Theory is a very special album to me. It was played constantly by uncles and family friends and whatnot growing up, I heard it constantly. I’d say it’s one of the reasons I like rap as much as I do. I love how aggressive it is and it was one of the first cds I ever bought. Hail Mary is still my favourite pac song
