CRITIC REVIEWS

An eloquent full stop at the end of an insane genre, and one of the most intelligent rap records of the last few years.

Musically, 2001 is about as close to brilliant as any one gangsta rap album might possibly get. The hip-hop rhythms are catchy, sometimes in your face, sometimes subtle, but always a fine backdrop for the power of Dre’s voice.

If this is truly, as he has implied, Dre’s last will and testament as a solo artist, it’s a hell of a way to go out.

No matter how much fun you may have, it's hard not to shake the feeling that this is cheap, not lasting, fun.

2001 proves that Dre's got the depth of soul to rise above his own shit and become a credit to the race.

The album is musically solid, lyrically entertaining (albeit campy) and criminally underrated, pun intended.

It's powerful enough in parts, but not clever enough to give Will Smith the fear.
never have i seen an album where every skit is contender for the worst ever
I have some VERRRRRRRRYYYY mildly nostalgic memories with some of the big hits from this, but FUCK it did not age well. + Ik I'm kicking a dead horse, but these skits are quite possibly the trashiest skits on any hip-hop record ever
