LOL no, trust me you would have to live through the era when the Chronic drop to truly appreciate it. Puff and Biggie has said numerous times that The Chronic influenced the making of Ready to Die. You can easilly hear the influence of The Chronic on Outkast Southernplayalistic album. -

That's your opinion, there is a reason why The Chronic and Nirvana's album is generally voted the greatest albums of the 90s. The ? shifted the music business, if you didn't live through it i don't expect you to have the same appreciation of the project. -

wasn't Da Brat's entire first album and her entire persona at first a complete imitation of Snoop? -

2001 had better production but The Chronic (1992) is a better overall album.

Havoc later reflected on Illmatic in a 2004 interview "I would listen to it and the songs were so ill, it made you wanna cry. Nas was just calm, like, 'How you like it?' We was hearing it piece by piece, so when it came out, it wasn't surprising to hear everybody's reaction. Everybody was going crazy. You could not walk through the 'hood without hearing Illmatic. It was on your brain" -
Illmatic...
