Great album from my personal GOAT, but while most ppl praise this as his best I don't tend to rank it that high.

All time masterpiece record. Flawless.

 

[ILLMMORTAL]

This was the album that the entire rap and HipHop world,unequivocally could not deny and it also propelled him to national stardom! Everybody new who this nikka was and what he was capable of when this album dropped and took off!

I remember walking to my local moms and pops record store to pick up the cassette on the 1st day of release @Ethnic Vagina Finder i see the point you're looking to make.

Loved this album. Another one that should have been 5 mics. This album shows the importance of sampling vs live instrumentation. Now I loved "mind playing tricks on me 94", but the original with the dusty sample and drums is a far superior record. The interpolation beat just didn't hit like the original.

Album straight , ‘94 was a dope year for hip hop

mr Scarface is back his best album imo.
