Re: The Hip-Hop Thread, or Dids\'s Top 10 Hip-Hop Albums
Hoffman. Interesting foray into the thread. Clipse love is always welcome as far as I'm concerned, for several reasons. The Puffy record alongside the others is ironic.
I assume you know Reflection Eternal if you know Blackstar, also. Rhymenocerus, Premier >>>>> all others. |

Many of you might want to consider getting into some mix tapes. Any of papoose's are great and for you Roc fans you definitely need to get into chain remains volume 1 and 2 by DNA. A good actual CD that hasn't been listed yet is young gunz - tough luv. My favorites would basically just be nearly all Jay-z, Lupe's Food and Liquor, and Clipse with Lord Willin. [/ QUOTE ] its funny that you mention mixtapes,and you mention the clipse,but you don't mention the clipse's mixtapes. in case anyone hasn't heard them,"we got it for cheap" vol 1 and 2 are easily the best mixtapes i've ever heard,and among the best rap performances i've ever heard. |

Re: The Hip-Hop Thread, or Dids\'s Top 10 Hip-Hop Albums
Not very creative, and I'm too lazy to write extensive comments, but here goes my favorite 5:
5. Lil Jon, Kings of Crunk Obviously a lot more clubby and less cerebral than most of the choices in this thread, but i think this is a really underrated album with infused with tons of attitude and catchy beats. Favorite songs: Rep Yo City, Nothin On, Get Low 4. Jay-Z, Blueprint This is the album that got me into Jay-Z, so I still hold it above all his other stuff. And he gives props to Big. Favorite songs: Hola Hovito, Ain't No Love 3. NWA, Straight Outta Compton Doesn't really need much comment since it's basically on everyone's list. I think I've listened to "Straight Outta Compton" on my ipod more than any other single rap song. Something about it makes me feel like a bad-ass even though I'm just a scrawny white boy. Favorite Songs: Straight Outta Compton, F*** the Police (duh and duh) 2. DMX, Flesh of My Flesh, Blood of My Blood DMX was the first rapper I was ever really into, and then only after he was forced on me in the army. You couldn't find a game of spades or dominos in the barracks without deafeningly loud rap music playing, and DMX was all the rage at the time. Flesh of My Flesh was a brilliant introduction to the genre for me, and even though DMX isn't the best rapper, few albums that I've listened to since in any genre have had as much depth and soul. Favorite Songs: Ain't No Way, Coming From, Ready to Meet Him 1. Biggie, Ready to Die Again, this really doesn't need explanation, but Ready to Die is probably my favorite album of all time in any genre. Not only does Biggie lay down some of the best lyrics in the history of rap, but I think he shows remarkable versatility and everything on this album is executed so perfectly. Favorite songs: Gimme the Loot, Things Done Changed |
