Vote cancelling allow, runs for 3 days.

Score is calculated by giving each cat. a point value adding and dividing by total votes.

Jason, if you don't mind explaining what point value should be I can do the calculations.

Top 10 for this listener, changed hip hop for me.

Marked the beginning of a new era for hip hop!

Yeah, I gave it a top 25 vote but it is closer to top 10 in reality.

Top 10 easily

Good album. But nowhere near a favorite. None of the above.

That's funny coming from you....

I'm not hear to please you or anyone else. I could seriously care less about this album. I never listen to it, despite owning it.

If we're talking Straight Outta Compton, then it's top 25...but that's for a different day I'm sure.

Top 25 but top 10 for me.

SRP so are you going to take this series?

yeah son, it's a down south jack move

Just keep it consistant is all I ask homey.

Only god can judge me now.

The Chronic just makes my top 25. Production wise it's in my top 10, but overall top 25.

Top 25. This disc remindes me of that HBO Doc Bangin' In Littlerock, anybody else remember that, I still got it dubbed on VHS somewhere.

Hmm... I don't see this album as 5 stars, but it has huge influence. I guess I'll vote semi-objectively and say top 100

Let's clear this up right away, and then run the banner at the top of every topic - are we voting OBJECTIVELY, as in OKAY CHRONIC IS A LANDMARK NOW LOWER THAN TOP 25 AT WORST ALBUM, or is it personal preference, as in I only listen to generic white rappers so the Chronic is too gangsta 4 me? How we voting topic runner?

i'll say top 25 for this masterpiece

top 25

ill say top 25 as well, it defined an entire coast

The Chronic >>>>> SOC

Where's SRP with todays album?

I agree KJ I would take Chronic over SOC but not by much at all. I'll take N4Life over both though.

SOC>>>>>>> The Chronic by 1000X ghostwritten Dr. Dre verses

You make Dre ghostwritten look like a bad thing or a secret. I'm glad he was smart enough to know that makes him sound even doper letting great writers write for him.

Naw, I just didn't feel like thinking of another wacky unit of measurement, lol

Don't get me wrong, I like SOC but The Chronic is a Top 5 album to me, whereas SOC is around in the 30's or so on my list.

I voted top 100 also...

Voted 50. Objectively I can see 25, easily. There are easily 25 albums I like better, though.
