One of my favorite albums.

I used to have this on tape and was convinced that something was wrong with it because of the hissing sound on track 4 "A Day of Outrage, Operation Snatchback."

It wasn't until I upgraded it to CD when I realized it was intentional.

Top 25 Hip Hop Album of all time. In the literal sense. I know people love to throw out top 5, top 10 lists etc; To me, when speaking the real, this has to be top 25.

:rofl: I didn't even notice the date, I just assumed that because that album will be 20 years old this year, that this was a post to celebrate that.

I was pretty important at the time but as a young white male I found it hard to listen to sometimes...whatever.

I felt the same way when I saw Cypress Hill's new video yesterday.
It reminded me about their first album, which I bought more than 18 years ago.





18 YEARS??!! :ohsh: :ohsh: :ohsh:

Fuck it, life is really Todd Shaw.
