Thread No.6 - Hip Hop albums with the best production in your opinion from 1993
Well, unsurprisingly, Dr Dre's 'The Chronic' won by a landslide, taking more than 3/4 of the votes with Mecca & the soul brother coming 2nd.
For the posters bringing up the Dr Dre/west coast albums always winning, 1993 is the year which you could label as the beginning of the East Coast Renaissance. So despite a certain 'huge' west coast album, produced by a certain producer (who has seen great success in this thread series), releasing that year, an east coast album could have a chance of winning this thread
