For me it wasnt a CD it was a video game.
When i was about 8 i had a bike game that had gangstarr and A tribe called quest on the soundtrack and that got me into east coast rap.
Then I stopped listening until I fianlly got to play San Andreas which exposed me to the best rap. G-Funk.
Which made me go find the chronic and all eyes on me by tupac
And i found an old Bone Thugs tape in my garage which also helped ALOT.
All these things together really contributed to me liking hip hop.
Life's a bitch and I'm just along for the ride.

shit no one album did it. if yall been to the bay 106 KMEL was the station (no longer the case) but i would in the back seat 4,5,6 and just listen to whatever my cousin had on and that had a rather large impact on me. Pac, Snoop, e-40, luniz, too short, etc. all that lovely bay music Added (15/Dec/09, 3:11 Am)

^^ and word to the chronic comment, fuckin smokin pure crack. there's a reason why detox is possibly the most anticipated album of all time in music history. shit thumps continuously and queers like you will only make it shine even brighter

Quote (8Diagrams) Those beats sounded like radio shit. I don't know what you're talking about. And although it's a different style, I can name one: Liquid Swords.
it sounded like radio shit.... okay, what artist or artists at the time was makin music with the sound of chronic 2001? And the thing about liquid swords is that EVERYBODY was still sampling. I can't think of an hip hop album that utilized an orchestral sound throughout the whole album before chronic 2001

Quote (8Diagrams) Dre used a shit load of co-producers that album is fraudulent.
Most hip hop albums to this day have multiple producers making tracks for artists. Dre did majority of the work however. Quote (8Diagrams) And that album sounds entirely like something made entirely for the clubs. There's nothing unique, new, or interesting about it. Nobody can convince me that album didn't suck ass.
It's gangsta rap, he pretty much started the gangsta shit. Big L rapped about the same shit, does that make him suck? No, it doesn't.

Quote (8Diagrams) Dre used a shit load of co-producers that album is fraudulent. Have you ever produced a damn thing 8? I have. Artists don't go into the studio alone, they usually have at least one other cat in there with them. What they do, and this is no joke because I know from experience, is they all mess around with the keys and if someone plays a melody that catches the main producer's ear, they record it and it may or may not become a part of the song. This is what I did with my "Nowhere To Go" beat and the beat I made for EmSeeD. You may be referring specifically to "Still Dre" where the piano riff was played by Scott Storch in exactly the same way that I described above. Besides, I don't see how doing this is any different from sampling, other than that instead of sampling a person he may have never met, Dre is sampling someone in the room with him. Quote (8Diagrams) And that album sounds entirely like something made entirely for the clubs. Name one song off that album that is made for the clubs/for dancing. Oh, that's right, you CAN'T. And even if it was, do you know how many underground tracks were made for the club that are DOPE? There's nothing wrong with club music. In fact, one of the things holding back the artists we like is the fact that they can't make club music or hooks. Quote (8Diagrams) There's nothing unique, new, or interesting about it. Whether it's interesting or not is a matter of opinion, but as for the other two: Quote (J-Breakz) And the thing about liquid swords is that EVERYBODY was still sampling. I can't think of an hip hop album that utilized an orchestral sound throughout the whole album before chronic 2001 Quote (8Diagrams) Nobody can convince me that album didn't suck ass. This is why so many people dislike you here. You are the most closed minded and judgmental person I know here. I am even open to people convincing me that "Tha Carter III" was a good album. In fact I actually listened unbiasedly 3 times through to formulate and establish an opinion on that album.
