Paul's Boutique is THE GREATEST ALBUM OF ALL TIMES. I can debate why it is better than Ill. Boutique's heavy sampling started me to sample more in MY OWN MUSIC. When I first listened to it on a CD, I was blown as shit, I listened to only 14 of the 15 tracks but I was still blown. When I downloaded the album on mp3, it was a little weird seeing the titles of the songs. But then when I listened to I was not blown as shit, but fuck. I had to listen to it everyday.
The fading in opener, To All the Girls, gets you ready for the big bang, Shake Your Rump, Rump opens with the drum sample and brings you in the album with a fuck ton of transitions from Rump to Johnny Ryall with the aeroplane sounds, and more!
Sounds of Science sampled the beat from Reprise which blown my mind heavily, the end of MCA's verse in 3-MInute Rule has the "dick" in "sucking your mothers dick" like a full stop.
FAVOURITE ALBUM OF ALL TIME!
