‘The Chronic’ is a sonically revolutionary piece of art.
Only my heart got warm when they rapped the first verse of Nothin But A G Thang…??
The very first physical cd I ever bought with my own money. Great album and one of my favorites of all time. You guys should review DMX’s It’s Dark and Hell is Hot sometime in the future.
This album tho was one of the best hip hop albums ever made. It revolutionized the culture. This was a game changer easily and I’m so mad that Tidal doesn’t have this album (please don’t clown me for having Tidal lol).
myke doing the redneck voice made me die man omg
Beezy is the man in these reviews
G Thang, and Today Was A Good Day
Yes I’m still lost on why the Luke diss also
Better than 2001 but not by a lot
Lil Ghetto Boy was that fire
High Powered OMG
I dont see how anybody can listen to the Chronic and not be inspired especially if you’re a rapper or producer.
Only a few minutes into watching this, but couldn’t wait to comment. One thing I found particularly interesting is that Q-Tip said that The Chronic heavily influenced how Low End Theory was produced and engineered. Very cool.
Dr. Dre recreated his samples with live instruments that’s why it sounds so different
@DeadEndHipHop, Luke dissed NWA on “Fakin like Gangsters “. Luke also dissed Kid ‘N Play on that same album. That’s where that beef started. Here’s the song https://youtu.be/MSYrnuGa4Ic
The first album I ever heard, this will always be timeless, and the greatest hip hop album ever.
Redman – Whut? Thee Album and The Chronic were my first cds I bought. I was 14
Dre & Snoop said that Redmans the whut? was a big inspiration for the album
THE BIRTH OF G FUNK!!
Wow thanks for using my comment!
I wish DEHH would do a classic review on Cormega the realness or the true meaning
Chronic set the tone for 90’s West Coast Hip Hop, Can’t believe I have a Vinyl of this Classic record. Great Review fam
If I’m not mistaken, this was the first hip hop album to prominently if not at all use live instruments
Love you guys for this
This and 2001 changed my whole perspective of music production
Love the album. RBX High Powered is my Sh*t
This album, 2001 and doggystyle make me so happy to be a stoner living in Cali
Chris Rock did a joke about white people liking to rap Rat-Tat-Tat-Tat because that hook. It’s true though, friends who don’t like rap like this album. Dre was on some next level shit.
LMAO I remember my nephew doing the whole video and knowing all the words to Nothing but a G thang and he was only 1 and a half at the time. So fucking funny… I knew this album was going to be one of the greatest
This should be renamed Classic/Iconic review for The Chronic
They say that Big Hutch from Above the Law came up with the G-Funk idea, and was working with Snoop & Warren G before Dre, and that Dre perfected it with the combination of the NWA production sound and all the artists, as well as his mixing & coaching, and then making a big brand out of it.
I just listened to The Day Niggaz Took Over last week… Had my volume on 40!
myke im sorry to break this to you but for 25 years you been rapping the wrong lyrics. its ‘swing down sweet chariot stop and let me ride’ not ‘snoop dogg and dre stop and let me ride’ haha
Nate Dogg on deeez nuuuts was the best vocal performance of the 90s y’all can fight me on that
Shocked y’all didn’t mention Stranded on Death Row. Kurupt killed tht. Album changed my life. Reason why I️ do music. Heard I️t a loooong Time after I️t dropped but sounded new
Like dissed N.W.A first on a song called ” I ain’t bullshiting” he dissed them and kid and play…Dre just held it untill the chronic came out…He slick dissed Ice Cube to, the line gets overlooked tho, he said ” then we gone creep to south Central on a street knowledge mission,as I steps to the temple,spot him got him as I pulls out my strap,got my chrome to the side of his white sox hat”. Cube had a production company called street knowledge….hidden gem
