Both are great songs. 8/10.

[TDIRunner | 3,010]

Both are great songs, but Crossroads got old for me after a while because it was played so often.  Regulate has never gotten stale for me and I still listen to it semi regularly and it's on my driving playlist.

8 & 9 respectively

Regulate just hits different man.

Never heard them, never will.

@RH is just a bit of an outlier at the moment

There are two types of music that, to me are like nails on a chalkboard—rap and country.

There is always an exception, though. I love Blackalicious and Johnny Cash!

Might have heard them but if I did, don't know them by name. If I didn't hear them, never will. With all the great music out there, don't have time for this shit, lol.

Both great gateway drugs artists.  Like, expand your mind, man.

8 and 10.  BTH didn't click with me back in that day but I've grown to appreciate.  And Skinny's right about the Warren G.  Funked out with a gangsta twist.

Nate Dogg's son played football here for exactly one minute before being arrested.  Too gangsta

Here's the story behind Regulate:

I voted 7 for Tha Crossroads and a 10 for Regulate. Regulate is so much funkier and more fun.

Listening to Regulate now, it has aged like fine wine.

6 for Crossroads 9 for Regulate (nice!).
