Chong · 28-01-2005 7:23pm

In my opinion it has to be California Love by 2pac.

Ay Cee · 28-01-2005 10:16pm

Best songs ever?! Or like, best song you heard on your stereo today?

Are ye serious?

Makaveli · 28-01-2005 11:54pm

Will Smith - Men In Black
Because the video is so cool.

Orizio · 29-01-2005 3:36pm

Xzibit and Will Smith!?!?! :eek:

2pac's california love was pretty kick ass,pity Dre can't rap.

My fave would be NY State of Mind by Nas.

Makaveli · 29-01-2005 4:39pm

Don't dis the Fresh Prince.

David19 · 29-01-2005 4:42pm

Dre cant rap are completely crazy, The Chronic and 2001 were two of the best rap albums of the nineties.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar · 29-01-2005 4:49pm

the beatnuts feat dead prez - look around
jurassic five - improvise
arrested development - raining revolution/fishing for religion

3 classics off the top of my head there

From a production point of view they were. Dre doesn't write a lot of his lyrics. He doesn't really say anything in his songs. He has a good voice for rapping but thats about it.

The Chronic - Dr Dre Presents Snoop Dogg
2001 - Dr Dre Presents a load of people nobody really cares about

I still disagree both were quality albums.

Cannibal Ox · 29-01-2005 6:50pm

Production wise, sure but Dre's mediocre rapper at best.
Good on 100 Miles & Running though.

daymobrew · 29-01-2005 7:02pm

3rd Bass "Product of the Environment". 1989.
Excellent bass.
Lyrics:
"I left more than a mark, I left a dent; I'm a product of the environment"

Eminem's "Lose Yourself" has a great energy.
For anarchy, speed and noise you'd do well to beat Ice T/Slayer "Disorder" (Judgement Night soundtrack).

Snoop Dogg made Chronic.Dre is alright on parts of Niggaz4life,but the majority of the time his flow is clumsy and lyrics unoriginal.As a producer on the other hand,hes one of the best.

Dont dis x to the z

Do yourself a favour and get Nas's illmatic and the D.O.C.'s No One Can Do It Better.And a dictionary.

Get your facts straight, 2001 was released in 1999
Seriously, if you dont have something half intelligent to say dont bother saying it at all, your favourite song ever is multipy, because of "the bass in the background", that says a sh1t load about what you know about hiphop. lyrical content mean anything to you? didnt think so

cabbage

here here ubu, well said. Dre is wicked, no one can take that away from him. as i producer and a solo rapper. wouldn't be selling albums if he wasn't.

"let's get high" on the album 2001
"serial killa" on the chronicle album

tman · 31-01-2005 4:10pm

Slick Rick - Children's Story
Warren G & Nate Dog - Regulate

and as echo said - The Message

Ay Cee · 31-01-2005 6:00pm

Busted sell a lot of records.

Sales isn't always a reflection of talent.

Dre is a decent rapper at best. He has a lot of his stuff ghost wrote apparently.
He's a great producer though, if a little lazy lately.

David19 · 31-01-2005 7:27pm

Afaik most of dres stuff is ghost written. Most of 2001 was anyway, if not all of it. Also he's part of a production team, its not just him making the beats. Still im not trying to take anything away from him, hes a legend.

Ay Cee · 31-01-2005 8:51pm

So basically he boils down to being a West Coast Puff Da...sorry P Diddy

He is a legend though!
