Shook Ones and Survival of the Fittest are the only joints I like from this album

The album begins to sound repetitive once you start to listening to it. I dont know I just dont get the whole classic albumtalk to be fair.

Maybe its a classic for the old heads. It just isnt my classic.

Only albums from 90s that are classics to me are the ones by Pac and Jay. Thats how it has always been.

Played this yesterday morning...

"Debatin on the latest rhyme wars where units don't count
But your rap pay add up to large amounts
Get my thrills puttin' other n!gga's skills to sleep,
catchin chills off' of Infamous beats.."

to be honest with you, i remember when i spent my lunch money on that lp and i was extremely disappointed with it. i thought it was going to be as good as murda muzik but it wasn't.

Top 5 album of all time...I dare someone to say otherwise

Not in any order, but off the top of my head I feel these albums are better than any of Mobb's albums:

1. Illmatic
2. Ready to Die
3. 36 Chambers
4. Only Built 4 Cuban Linx
5. ATLiens
6. The Chronic
7. Doggystyle
8. Tical
9. It Was Written
10. Reasonable Doubt

Don't get me wrong, I fukk with Mobb Deep but just my opinion.

I respect your opinion but my argument is when you do a top 5 Infamous has to be in the argument somewhere...and the only one I disagree with on your list is Tical, which was too inconsistent to me....

its really like this imo:

1.Scarface-The Diary (any Scarface album on anyday can take this spot depending on my mood..he's G.O.A.T.)
2.Dr. Dre-The Chronic
3.Mobb Deep-Infamous
4.Tribe Called Quest-Low End Theory
5.Pete Rock and CL Smooth-Mecca and the Soul Brother
6.Raekwon-Only Built 4 Cuban Linx
7.BIG-Ready 2 Die
8.Ice Cube-Death Certificate
9.Nas-Illmatic
10.Kool G Rap and DJ Polo-Live and Let Die

36 Chambers and Doggystyle are honorable mentions (11, 12)
