My 10 Greatest Hip Hop Albums of All-Time
 

This is my list, in no particular order. Well, Kind of.

ENJOY!


Doggystyle - Snoop Doggy Dog
The best ever? Maybe...

6 Feet Deep - Gravediggaz
One of the most memorable albums ever. Period. Like fine wine, it has aged very well.

License To Ill - Beastie Boys
Really helped pave the way for hip hop and, yes, gansta rap.
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...9L._AA115_.jpg

36 Chambers - Wu Tang Clan
I put this one alone, because I can't put every album from the 36 Chambers to Wu Tang Forever... they are all amazing and deserve a list of their own.

Illmatic - Nas
Fucking tight from the start to the end. Nas never made an album even half as good as this IMO.

Black Sunday - Cypress Hill
Insane in the brain? You probably are if you don't own this album.
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...8L._AA115_.jpg

The Chronic 2001 - Dr. Dre
Better than the old chronic, though that was also a great album. It's hard to argue that this isn't the greatest rap album ever.

Midnight Marauders - A Trice Called Quest
Real rap.
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...NL._AA115_.jpg

The Slim Shady LP - Eminem
Pretty much a classic.
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...160_AA115_.jpg

Straight Outta Compton - NWA
Ice Cube makes kid movies these days.
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...jL._AA115_.jpg

I noticed quite a few Negroes on that list. Do you hate white people?

Hey the Beastie Boys and Eminem are on the list, what more do you want¡?

Don't forget Ice Cube.. he is pretty much white now :1orglaugh

Try some Aussie hip hop.

Drapht


Bliss n Eso

I'm glad there's none of that new horseshit they call rap these days in there. Good list.

There's plenty of great real hip hop out there today, you just won't hear it on the radio..

fugees - the score.
end of list.

wtf, where's All Eyez on Me ?

King of rock- run dmc??????

and not one fat boys album????

and me against the world :)

:thumbsup

Moms had to entertain many men
Didn't wanna do it but it's time to pay the rent again
I'm gettin a bit older and I'm startin to be a bother
Moms can't stand me cause I'm lookin like my father
Should I stay or run away, tell me the answer
Moms ignores me and avoids me like cancer
Grow up rough and it's hard to understand stuff
Moms was tough cause his poppa wasn't man enough
Couldn't stand up to his own responsibilities
Instead of takin care of me, he'd rather live lavishly
That's why I'll never be a father;
unless you got the time it's a crime don't even bother

Pretty good list but it would be really hard to create a accurrate top ten list. A lot of great albums to consider.

I didn't put any 2pac or Biggie in the list, sorry not a big fan.

No All Eyez On Me and No Aquemini.

wow.

You left many off that would beat a few of yours.

Eazy Mutha fuckin E - Eazy Duz it Dogg

You forgot Ghetto Bird by Ic......

Public Enemy - It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back.

Listening to Dedication 2, definitely one of the Top 25 Albums.

True.

Mindnight Marauders - Tribe
Low End Theory - Tribe
Paid in Full - Eric B and Rakim
Paul's Boutique - Beastie Boys
So How's Your Girl ?- Handsome Boy Modeling School
Jay-Z Unplugged (With the Roots)

The Great Adventures of Slick Rick

The Birth of A Prince - RZA

Sex Packets- Digital Underground


And here's a single that deserves mention...

lol

Hard to argue with that.

How so? :helpme

Maybe, but that's why it's called My 10 Greatest...

good list, i would add A Tribe Called Quest "The Low End Theory"

I had to choose one Tribe Called Quest album, I think Midnight is their best.

Wow... Pretty respectable list...

I'd definitely have to add, to MY list:

Biggie - Ready To Die
Big L - Lifesytlez Ov Da Poor and Dangerous
Gang Star - Mass Appeal: Best of Gang Star

But those are just some additions I'd make...

top of the list...

Great list. I'd swap out the Grave Diggaz album for....
Only Built 4 Cuban Linx
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_yuGx2p_Kpc...Cuban+Linx.jpg

:thumbsup

Gang Starr is the shit... RIP GURU

If you check my comment for 36 Chambers, I said I would include all albums from their first to Wu Tang Forever, that includes Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, an absolute classic. But don't fuck with gravediggaz!

old fart.

Im with you Alex, Either this one, or Ironman, or Wu-Tang Double CD. I like the double CD better then 36 chambers. That is just me.

Only song I really dug a lot of this GD album was Diary of a Madman

A few I would have on my list.


Nas - It was written, also liked this better then Illmatic. Just my taste.

Also, a great album that came out recently that brings back good old 90s rap is

Capone n Noreage - The War Report 2

Here is a sample off of that album



I like the Jay-Z unplugged but I like Reasonable Doubt better.

Terror Squad - The Album , Fat Joe, Big Pun so on so forth. Dynamite classic album.
Mobb Deep - Infamy and Hell on Earth
Lloyd Banks - Hunger for more
50 cent - get rich or die tryin - dont tell me this album was not a banger. haters gonna hate on this one.

just a few that come to mind.
