    IWMBGWH has some skippable tracks in my opinion. Not so on No Need; I listen to that album straight through.

    Cube and Pooh had some nice production on the first one, but I prefer how Del mixed it up for the 2nd album: Casual, Domino, Del. Several producers but still one, overall, coherent sound.

    The first one. I find the second one, and all subsequent Del records, unlistenable.

    The first one is dope though. I find a great companion piece to WC & The Maad Circle "Ain't A Damn Thing Changed" and Ice Cube "Death Certificate."

    Wins in a close race. Supposedly, it's Del's least-liked of his albums, though.

    that doesn't surprise me. not enough video game samples for his liking.

    Wow. What's the beef w/ "No Need for Alarm"? I know he's become a caricature of himself, but he ripped it on that LP, and the beats are nice.

    I'd take "Future Development" over the first Del album.

    haters fall back. this is a CLASSIC album, sheesh. del is witty and his style is impeccable on this album. all of the tracks (save for dr bombay, the only somewhat skippable one imo) have great production AND they're all unique to one another.

    The 1st one. I can't hate on it. Things come full circle, and in a couple years haters will be sweating both these albums again. The 2nd one is just okay. I like the joint that sampled Bantu Village. There was a funny line about pink titties in it. I agree with Cosmo's comment about it being a nice companion to the WC lp & Death Certificate. Also goes nicely with the 1st Lench Mob lp.
