1. I see CRUISING WITH RUBEN all the time at my local. It's OOP? Weird. I should grab it. It's actually towards the top of my list of want-next-Zappa-albums.
2. You don't own ANY 2Pac??? Damn. Well if you don't have any, I'd suggest ALL EYEZ of course, which is basically an epitome of 90's West Coast Gangsta Rap. And one of a few double albums I couldn't quite imagine cut down to a single disc. But at the same time, my favorite LP would be ME AGAINST THE WORLD. Totally different album. Very introspective. If you want the best representation of the 2Pac (the character), get ALL EYEZ. If you want a closer listen to the thoughts of Tupac Shakur (the person), go with ME AGAINST.
