Gotta get past Pac, and he's not there. i love the direction he's heading in tho, i didn't hop on the wagon until GKMC and still remember the first time i heard that album, i was shocked at how great it was.

That said I wonder how people's location affects their opinion on this. Growing up and living in Cali it's hard for me to say/think that he's better than Pac, Cube, Snoop or even E40 (i know 40 Water's output has watered down some of his legacy, but i'll be damned if he aint in my top 5 westcoast). IMO K Dot is definitely on his way to be one of the greats, another album like GKMC TPAB or Untitled will probably cement it for me.
