The Birth of the Chronic

Japiro Season 1 Episode 3

We took some time out to pay homage to Dr. Dre. The Chronic album was finally released on TIDAL one day early on 4.19.20. During the podcast, Japiro reminisces about how this classic album set the soundscape for future albums. The Chronic album was one of the first Hip-Hop albums where the main artist found a way to collaborate with multiple artist' throughout the album. Each artist that appeared on the Chronic album individually, created some of their best material ever! We are thankful for this moment in Hip-Hop.
