Eazy was great, and Dre had the best solo career. I'm going to go with Cube while they wre together though.

Ice Cube

Pretty much a toss-up between Dre and Ice Cube. I'll go with Dre though.

I would probably say Cube while they were together, but I am still surprised no one has said Eazy E

I've never heard Amerikkka's Most Wanted but I quasi-agree with the other things you said. I would rank the albums like this though:

Doggystyle > The Predator > The Chronic > Death Certificate

Hmm. I haven't even heard The Predator so I guess I shouldn't speak so definitively.

But minus The Predator, my list would look like yours but with Amerikkka's Most Wanted at the top and The Chronic below Death Certificate. The Chronic has really good production but I think Ice Cube is an infinitely more entertaining rapper than Dre.

You should definitely check it out. It's the quintessential L.A. riots album.

Absolutely. That's why Dre is better when he has other people rapping, like on Doggystyle.

I will - wait is that the one with "It Was a Good Day"? I love that song, I thought it was on one of his other two I mentioned - maybe I have heard the album.

Anyway, I didn't even have to use my AK today so I'm happy.
