    Love this project. Reuniting wuth Dr. Dre and the single "Bytch Pleaze" effectively saved Snoop's career, because things were looking iffy the prior couple of years. Snoop got his confidence back on this album as well by getting back to his west coast roots.

    I'm one of those guys. I find 2001 an overall better listen than The Chronic, even though its not as influential. My top 3 cuts on this album are "The Watcher", "The Next Episode" and "Ackrite" with a strong HM to "Xxplosive".

    ATL don't get the credit they deserve. This album was recorded in 91 and released in 92 and became the blueprint to The Chronic. Warren G was their prodeje while recording this album and after the split he took some ideas with him. A few samples such as the 'Let Me Ride' one from the Chronic were used on this.

  • @fantasyguru26
    @fantasyguru26 3 дні тому

    I think their debut Livin' Like Huslters was their best LP but Black Mafia Life is a close 2nd. Both are classics. What I love about ATL is they found their niche within the G-Funk sound. Cold 187 and KMG had unbelievable chemistry. I think they really might be the most overlooked west coast hip hop act. Overshadowed by the heavy hitters of their time - NWA, 2Pac, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eazy-E and Ice Cube. My top 3 tracks are "Process of Elimination", "VSOP" and "Harda U R the Doppa U Faal"

    Dr Dre's Chronic 2001 is still a classic and had massive hits like Still D R E, Xxplosive, The Next Episode, and the original Chronic album will always be the number 1 classic. It's crazy these days for the youngins when they start listening to Dr Dre they like to say that Chronic 2001 is better than the original Chronic but truth be told its not better than the 1st. Awesome video keep up the great work.

      I love this LP but I agree The original trumps it by a mile, and Im guessing it's just certain younger fans who don't fully appreciate or enjoy the early 90s sound the way they would 2001, since that album is much more modern. And thank you for your kind words!
