《The Chronic》是美國嘻哈製作人兼説唱歌手Dr. Dre的首張錄音室專輯。該專輯於1992年12月15日由他自己的唱片公司Death Row Records和Interscope Records發行。《The Chronic》是Dr. Dre因糾紛離開西海岸嘻哈樂隊N.W.A後的首張個人專輯。其歌曲中表達了對Ruthless及其所有者、前N.W.A成員和Eazy-E的不滿。《The Chronic》在Billboard 200中排名第三，並獲得三白金認證，在美國銷量達300萬張，使Dr. Dre成為1993年美國十大最暢銷表演藝術家之一。《The Chronic》代表了西岸G-FUNK的繁盛，西海岸老將DR.DRE和AFTER MATH的西部群星的助陣使得這張The Chronic熱鬧非凡！尤其是那首DRE與SNOOP合作的《Nutin' But A G Tang》更時光是備譽為了G-FUNK聖曲。這張專輯在滾石雜誌選出的500張歷代最強專輯中排名第137位。 With its stylish, sonically detailed production, Dr. Dre's 1992 solo debut, The Chronic, transformed the entire sound of West Coast rap. Here Dre established his patented G-funk sound: fat, blunted Parliament-Funkadelic beats, soulful backing vocals, and live instruments in the rolling basslines and whiny synths. What's impressive is that Dre crafts tighter singles than his inspiration, George Clinton -- he's just as effortlessly funky, and he has a better feel for a hook, a knack that improbably landed gangsta rap on the pop charts. But none of The Chronic's legions of imitators were as rich in personality, and that's due in large part to Dre's monumental discovery, Snoop Doggy Dogg. Snoop livens up every track he touches, sometimes just by joining in the chorus -- and if The Chronic has a flaw, it's that his relative absence from the second half slows the momentum. There was nothing in rap quite like Snoop's singsong, lazy drawl (as it's invariably described), and since Dre's true forte is the producer's chair, Snoop is the signature voice. He sounds utterly unaffected by anything, no matter how extreme, which sets the tone for the album's misogyny, homophobia, and violence. The Rodney King riots are unequivocally celebrated, but the war wasn't just on the streets; Dre enlists his numerous guests in feuds with rivals and ex-bandmates. Yet The Chronic is first and foremost a party album, rooted not only in '70s funk and soul, but also that era's blue party comedy, particularly Dolemite. Its comic song intros and skits became prerequisites for rap albums seeking to duplicate its cinematic flow; plus, Snoop and Dre's terrific chemistry ensures that even their foulest insults are cleverly turned. That framework makes The Chronic both unreal and all too real, a cartoon and a snapshot. No matter how controversial, it remains one of the greatest and most influential hip-hop albums of all time.
