Poll Makaveli vs Reasonable Doubt
- Thread starter 5 Grand
- Start date
I made this poll because I've been listening to both albums lately and as they both came out around the same time I thought it would be a good comparison.
Reasonable Doubt is flawless. The production is tight and Jay is rapping his ass off.
But Makaveli is above and beyond a 5 mic classic. The sonic quality is top notch. And the emotion and energy of songs like Bomb First, Hail Mary and Against All Odds is unmatched by any album I've ever heard. White Mans World and Me And My Girlfriend touch on topics in a way that only Pac could do. To Live And Die In LA is a perfect radio single.
Pac was in a zone when he made Makaveli. Hail Mary might be one of the greatest Hip Hop songs of all time. Sonically it sounds better than anything on Reasonable Doubt.
There's nothing wrong with Reasonable Doubt but Makaveli is just a better album. It's more serious and he's talking about deeper more emotional topics. The better songs are better.

Imo Reasonable Doubt is the best album of 1996.
