Yes, and no one will ever agree on the best rap album. We all have our own personal preferences.

Re: best rap ALBUM ever?
 

srs response, this is the 10 best IMO, note IMO and I go by which 10 albums I would want to listen to if I could only choose 10

Nas - Illmatic
obv
Wu-Tang Clan - 36 Chambers
again, obv
Mos Def and Talib Kweli (Blackstar) - Blackstar
Dr. Dre - Dr. Dre 2001
Jay-Z - Reasonable Doubt
Jay-Z - The Blueprint
Talib Kweli - Quality
Kanye West - The College Dropout (f the haters, forget for a second that he is Kanye West and this is one of the best rap CD's ever)
Kanye West - Late Registration (same deal)
Outkast - Stankonia

Re: best rap ALBUM ever?
 

and you can notice I've left off Tupac, BIG, and a lot of older stuff like beastie boys, public enemy, NWA etc because I don't know enough about the albums as a whole to judge them. I'm too young and lazy to DL all that music

Re: best rap ALBUM ever?
 

not sure why i didnt add outkast - stankonia but i am now. i like outkast

Re: best rap ALBUM ever?
 

Reasonable Doubt - Jay-Z,
Blueprint - Jay-Z
Marshall Mathers LP - Eminem,
2001 - Dr. Dre,
The College Dropout - Kanye West (again, [censored] the haters)
Liquid Swords - GZA the Genius
Life After Death - The Notorious B.I.G.
The Carter - Lil Wayne (this might be a sentimental pick, my life was just on a whole 'nother level when was I listening to this cut)
Nas - Illmatic
Nas - Stillmatic

Be by Common is pretty up there, I'm not sure what y'all think

I also feel that Pac should get some love here but I never actually got any of his music in individual albums

Blackstar by Mos Def and Kweli also comes close, but I really wasn't feeling one or two songs on the album

It isn't really a "classic" or a proper rap album, but out of all the albums I've had fun with Da Drought 3 has to be up there, I can listen to it on repeat forever

Re: best rap ALBUM ever?
 

7 Day Theory is pretty sick fwiw and probably deserves to be on the list

Re: best rap ALBUM ever?
 

reasonable doubt

/thread

Re: best rap ALBUM ever?
 

Okay why the [censored] not? I didn't get into rap until like 2002 so pls excuse lack of "classics". Also this is just albums I enjoy listening to, and the first 10 that came to mind.

In no order:

Cannibal Ox - The Cold Vein
Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow
Lyrics Born - Later that Day
Aesop Rock - Labor Days
Jaylib - Champion Sound
Madvillain - Madvillainy
R.A. the Rugged Man - Die Rugged Man Die
Dizzee Rascal - Boy in da Corner
The Foreign Exchange - Connected
Wiley - Treadin' on Thin Ice
