Oh man you could be my brother from another mother lol. I've been the biggest ATL fan since Black Mafia Life and Uncle Sam's Curse. I remember being so excited when Time Will Reveal came out in '96 because it was their first project without Eazy. Everything was up in the air, but they delivered on all fronts. I'd put Hutch up there with Dre and Quik
Thats my last favorite ATL album too.
Maybe Im way off with this statement but I think ATL and Big Hutch were the real innovators of G-Funk. If you listen to the first or second NWA album (Straight outta Compton) it sounds quite different when ATL became involved in the Niggaz4Life album and also their first album Livin like Hustlers. ATL brought a completely different sound.
