IT WAS A GOOD ALBUM, no matter what these haters say!

"Many people talked bad about this album cause they expected it to be good as the original Chronic who is deffinetly one of the best rap albums ever. Well, it's not as outstanding as the original but I think with what Death Row have today they came out with a tight a#$ album. There are two main problems:1.There are two pretty annoying wanna-be artists on the album. They are named The Realest and Top Dogg. Those two, without any shame or respect to themselves and the industry, are doing their best to sound like rap legends 2Pac and Snoop Doggy Dogg. They are both all over the album and they copy Pac and Snoop in every possible way: both lyrically and the way they rap. It's annoying, Death Row still has enough talent to get along instead of bringing fake stars to their label.2.Since it's a double CD album it suffers from the double-CD syndrom which means that there are a few filler songs. Songs who are pretty weak and are there just to fill the playing time. Still there're many many GREAT songs on the album. About 18 of them. On the good songs everything is just perfect as only Death ROw knows - tight gangsta production and real quality rappers. Artists who shine on the album are : The one and only 2Pac on two songs, Bay Area rapper Mac Shawn who's now signed with Death Row, Swoop G who also appeared on Murder was the case, VK- a new female rapper who isa really tight, Daz, Kurupt, Soopafly, Ant Banks, Michel'le and many more.It's a very good album and much better than many of the albums that come out these days. I admit there are about 5 or 6 tracks not worth listening to. Just don't listen to them, listen to all the rest. The rest are just AWSOME and sound like Death Row at their best, when they were the greatest label in Rap music."

Death Row Fell Off!

"anyone who gave this cd more than a couple of stars must beworking for them or something, this CD is pretty weak. The Realestand Top Dogg trying to sound like other people, nothing is funnier than the two of them on the song "They Wanna Be Like Us" heh. No one wants to be a fake tupac or a fake snoop dogg like these guys."

NO PAC NO HIT

"PAC JUST BEING ON 2 TRACKS ON A DOUBLE CD JUST DON'T STRETCH THE SALES. DEATH ROW SHOULD BE ON DEATH ROW. PAC WOULD BE ASHAMED TO SEE HIS POETIC MASTERMIND LACED OVER SOME WACC TRACKS LIKE THESE. AMERICA DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY, MORE IMPORTANTLY YOUR TIME. THIS IS A NO BRAINER AND WHEN YOU SEE IT LEAVE IT ON THE SELVES. R.I.P. 2-PAC AKA MAKAVELLI"
