IDK cause I was never into that shit too much. I can't say
that I never heard it, but that was around the time when I
began feeling so-called Hip Hop music less and less.

Yep, and as classics they had and have been sampled to death.
Anyone trying to sample any of the shit from the past 10 - 15
years?

The Show and Paid in Full rocks hard still, because they are
undeniable classics. Them Bullshit trax you mentioned above
are just flavors of the moment, like A-Bay-bay and that
Souljah Boy, Tell 'em garbage.  

When The Show and Paid in Full dropped, everybody who was
around at that time KNEW that this thing called Hip Hop music
had turned a significant corner.  It's been a
LLOOOOONNNNNNGGGGGG time, since there's been a track or an
album that's had that kind of impact.
