. Jokes aside, it's a tough listen in 2025. Efil4zaggin is definitely their crown jewel and probably Dre's best album production wise (just edging out The Chronic).
Not even the best NWA album. It is an iconic album and set the tone for Gangsta rap but the production aged poorly and if you can't skip that terrible Arabian Prince disco track something is wrong with you
Nothing comes close to this on SOC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0v6OywGWSY
you mean Paul's Boutique?
You may mean their second, Bringing Down The Horse, as that's the one with the hits that broke them.
I saw them fairly recently. They put on a great show - but yeah they never quite made it big.

A firm but pleasant disagreement here. Straight Outta Compton had pop sensibilities with Ice Cube and songs like “Express Yourself” and humor like “8 Ball” with Eazy that Efil just totally lacked.

Sounds like someone doesn’t appreciate Dre’s crown jewel that runs circles around SOC sonically. Also assuming you didn’t listen to the album much as Ren stepped up and filled the hole that Cube left and then some. I’d argue the breakup was the best thing for music. We got the best NWA album and Cube went on probably the best solo streak of any hip hop artist with 4 or 5 classics in a row. Everyone’s a winner including the audience
Love this.. The audio alone is outstanding, add in the movie footage and it doesn't get any better.
somewhere, deep in a box in my basement is that Arabian Prince - Brother Arab CD.
Is your basement YouTube? Because you can also find it there.

I purchased Efil two days after its release. I think it was the second rap/hip hop album I'd purchased. Public Enemy's It Takes A Nation of Millions To Hold Us Back was the first.
I was disappointed that it wasn't nearly as good or as cool as Straight Outta Compton, which had the benefit of having the police song that can't be named but was perfect for blaring from the back of the baseball bus (yes, hip hop jumped the shark and into white boys' arms a long time ago), the utter insouciance of "8 Ball," and the then-unheard of driving force of the title track.
Ice Cube was also my favorite rapper at the time, so I sorely missed him on Efil. And Eazy would never be as vital as on Straight.
Anyway, mad respect for your opinion; it's just wrong. Heh.
wtf was that?
art, you heathen
Oh dear word.
