i have to agree with you.   Rappers used to pride themselves in intensity and ambition.  Now it's all about who is the biggest fckup.

also the image they sold back then cannot be done today.  We see these guys tweeting and sharing and realize they're normal idiots like everyone else.  Back then, rap (like most styles of music) could markets its stars as living some aloof, amazing lifestyle.  Now we see them tweeting as they take shits.

I'm going to have to agree. I wonder if rap is slowly dying out. It is to me.

And Dre was good but I am going to have to say that Snoop Dog is master.

Yep! DR Dre's "The Chronic" Album changed the whole rap game! It introduced one of raps best ever Snoop Dogg and slowed rap down into the chill smoking weed era instead of the fast paced crack rap era. The chronic was just a chill album you could relax too and just "just chill to the next episode"

This has to be tied with Dr. Dre's "The Chronic " album! Snoop Doggs first album Doggystyle was the most anticipated rap album I can remember .Between Dr.Dre's "The Chronic" album and snoop dogg's Doggystyle that was the best 28$ I ever spent. just 2 CD's full of cutts! I love fuck wit Dre Day! where Dre disses on Eazy E! Eazy got him back with " Real Muthafuckin G's" but "fuck wit dre day " was way better -IMO the beat was chill and snoop dogg rips 2 fat versus! One of the best rap lines by snoop on that song" well heres a little Jimmy joke about your momma that you might not like, I heard she was a Frisco Dyke" I love Eazy as well but Dre and Snoop were on a diffrent level. I wish Snoop didn't pump out some of the garbage he did after his first few albums. I don't think Dre or snoop were ever studio gansters. Snoop did time for selling crack and his bodygaurd did kill somebody flashing gang signs and a gun at him. Dre did plenty of time in jail for diffrent shit that is why Eazy E got him to work for basically nothing,they were favors for Eazy constantly bailing Dre out. At one time Eazy and Dre really were best friends! Money tore them apart! But when eazy got sick everything was forgotten. Dre loved Eazy at heart,vice versa.

1. Chronic

2001, and a eminem's first 2 albums were also great, aswell as some ruff ryders and DMX's early albums.

Since then, absolute gayness.

Wu-Tang Forever (double album) is where it peaks for me. They had a message, and diverse lyrics.
