Undeniably Good

A treasurable classic that is a must have for r&b/rap lovers. One of the best urban soundtracks made.

Great soundtrack

The album contains a great mix of rap songs and R&B. Obviously Regulate, Pour out a little liquor, and Afro Puffs are great songs. But there are also great r&b tracks like Anything and Part time Lover. My only complaint would be that Death Row did not include "Pain" and "Loyal to the Game" on the CD.

The soundtrack Above the Rim is an example of how all soundtracks should sound. Coordinated by Dr. Dre, the record is a virtual catalog of the cutting edge of hip-hop and urban R&B in 1994, featuring stars as well as unknowns that wind up making a big impression. Every artist turns in a first-rate song, but the real attraction of the record is Warren G.’s hit single, “Regulate,” which straddles the line between rap and soul with grace and style. – Stephen Thomas Erlewine
