"Suga Free - Street Gospel is a West-Coast classic."


  

          

I'm a month late but this album is 20 years old and still awesome as fuck. Top 3 Quik project IMO.

These beats so are luxurious and I think Suga Free is an underrated rapper. Sick flow and always good for "WTF this dude just say?" bars.

If U Stay Ready is one of my all-time favorite songs. That's the first joint I'd use to make a Quik > Dre argument.

it's at least close to a top 3 quik project.

Damn, great point. Here are my 3 favorite Quik projects:

1) Safe + Sound album
2) Mausberg album (the energy on that was CRAZY!)
3) Rhythm-al-ism
Honorary 4th) Street Gospel album

we fell off once Pac died, but a LOT of our favorite, most Regional music came from this period, and this album was the main one we all loved the most.

It was probably way too West Coast for anyone outside of the West to get into it, even if they loved The Chronic and even Dogg Food....and that's probably why it was so great to us. It had the longest shelf life ever...even in 99-2000, you heard this album more than anything else that was the same age or older.

And that damn skit??? Rapping in jail, playing that beat and rapping perfectly on top? EVERY rapper I knew in HS or Middle School tried to do that, and only a few were able to pull it off. I really felt he was a Top 10 rapper, solely off that LOL.

I agree with the OP, "Stay Ready" and "Pitch In on a Party" are how I differentiate Quik from Dre.
