What's Ya Favourite Rap Album?

I was looking back over a few posts and i saw that "Z" had suggested posting favourite Rap/Hip-Hop Albums. Good idea, I'll get the ball rolling:

Illmatic by Nas

Primative Plus by Edan

Ready To Die by Notorious B.I.G

Like Water For Chocolate by Common

Blackstar by Mos Def + Talib Kweli

Arrythmia by The Anti-Pop Consortium

Internal Affairs by Pharoahe Monch

It Takes A Nation Of Millions by Public Enemy

Enter The Wu-Tang 36 Chambers by Wu-Tang Clan

Supreme Clientele by Ghostface Killah

They are all well worth a listen.

:D

kris kross
vanilla ice
dazey dukes
mc hammer
snow
arsenio hall
shaq, any athlete rapping for that matter

... seriously

:P - April Fool's!

Soopaman, that's a great list - nice to see some real hip hop fans on here. Here's a little list but I'm sure I'm missing out a load I shouldn't.

Mobb Deep - The Infamous
Mos Def - Black On Both Sides
Ghostface Killa - Supreme Clientele
Wu-Tang Clan - Enter The Wu-Tang
Jedi Mind Tricks - Violent By Design
Afu-Ra - Body Of The Life Force
Nas - Illmatic
2Pac - All Eyez On Me
Redman - Muddy Waters
Raekwon - Only Built 4 Cuban Linx
Big L - The Big Picture
Roots Manuva - Brand New Second Hand (and Run Come Save Me)
The Roots - Things Fall Apart
Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP
Mos Def & Talib Kweli - Black Star
Soundbombing Vol. 2
Common - Like Water For Chocolate
7L & Esoteric - Dangerous Connection

Could be plenty more though, but if I was allowed to listen to nothing else for a year I'd be happy.

edit: I've never heard that Edan - Primitive Plus, so I'm going on the hunt for it now...

neutride and oxide - 2 stepz ahead
brainpower - verschil moet er zijn
brainpower - door merg en brain
eminem - the eminem show
8 mile soundtrack
linkin park - reanimation (lots of rap too)


brainpower is a dutch artist, but it rulez.
If U dont know him, download his 1 mic remix
Brainpower vs NaS - 1 mic.mp3

I can't believe nobody has suggested De La souls "3 Feet High & Rising"
surely one of the best? :D

My favouite older album is Run DMC-Raising Hell,listened to it soooo much when i was a kid.

Lately i would say J-Zone-Pimps Don't Pay Taxes,a quality album!! ;)


Am currently downloading The Roots-Things Fall Apart and Edan-Primitive Plus,so maybe my favourite might change in the near future.

I forgot the cross movement - human emergency

wow this stuff is old. i need some new shit.

which jay-z is best? dynasty? ive got the blueprint1. its okay.

dynasty is the best jay-z by far

50 cent's album is pretty nice, not 1 of the best, but it will do. same for nelly's album

A friend told me to try some anti pop consortium and they are great!! :D ..Shopping Carts Crash,cool album...thanks Mr MH ;)

Why are you so quick to resort to violence to solve your problems? Yeah I can agree that I was provoking, but this is a typical response you can expect from a lot of unintelligent people that listen to rap music if they don't agree with something that you have to say. "Most" use insults instead of debating. I can argue that "most" people that listen to rap music are not as intelligent as those who do not. Try to find a rap song that does not mention "niggas", "40's", "bitches", "weed", or "money". Another thing I can't stand is all this slang that goes along with it... grill, honey, bling bling, etc etc etc
Also, from what I've seen is people that listen to rap music have very limited musical tastes, wait I just said "rap" and "musical" in the same sentence. I was just in a chat room and here is a response from some one who likes rap on the topic of rock music. "Rock music sucks because all they do is kill themselves" right... listen to rock music and you'll end up commiting suicide.

MASTA ACE!!! ALL THE WAY OF CHORSE !!! Wisit www.masterace.com!!!

yo disenchanted just by saying that rap is all about violence sex and cursing is a really bad generalization. just because people hear about songs like "f the police" they assume all rap is that. all people who listen to rap also aren&#39;t stupid - i listen to rap religiously and i&#39;m at a very good college.

ok, groups that don&#39;t dwell on 40&#39;s, bitches, weed, ect....hmmm, black star, de la soul, arrested development, will.i.am.. and as far as peoples comments, there are stupid people no matter what board or block you are on. it&#39;s a little closed minded to just say all of something sucks just because of a few examples you have heard. i would not like rock music if i was to judge it on groups like the meatmen (i.e. cripple children suck), el duce (i.e. butt rapin&#39; man, suck and fuck and cook and clean). if i was to judge based on groups such as these, i would assume they have a serious aryan wanna-be complex going on. and slang? do you speak proper english at all times? i really don&#39;t think so.
