I usually like to write some sort of informative blurb when I do one of these mega 12" posts about the artist and the album, but this is Dr. Dre's The Chronic. This shit should be in everybodys top 5, it's as classic as an album can get. Nothing more needs to be said, so here are all the 12"s from The Chronic including "Lil' Ghetto Boy" which was only released as a CD single. On another note, I got some Dr. Dre Treats from The Chronic on the way so stay tuned.

BONUS Dre & Snoop:
This one came from our friends over at Meaning Of Dope (again) and it is a super dope interview with Dre & Snoop that also includes some live footage from The Chronic tour and some videos. This was when Dre & Snoop were THE shit and pretty much unfuckwitable. Not sure why the producers felt the need to include news clips on gun violence at the start of this piece but whatever, I guess gangster rap was still some shocking shit in '93.
