De La Soul - De La Soul is Dead
Prince Paul is God. Another album that's just amazingly high on the fun quotient. It never really takes itself seriously, and some of the really virtuoso performances kinda get lost. Even the skits are classic.

Love this album, Joker also mentioned 3 Feet High... I am probably committing rap heresy or something, but I like Buhloone Mind State more. I think maybe cause it has more jazz hooks? Either way this album doesn't seem to get much love when De La Soul comes up, so wanted to put it out there.

I couldn't finish reading this thread without echoing these sentiments about De La Soul is Dead. It contains my favorite line in all of hip hop, "Yo, this is MC Rack O' Ribs and the BBQ Crew..." A good sense of humor in hip hop is vastly underrated.
