Jay-Z - Black Album
Jay-Z - Blueprint
Dr. Dre - Chronic 2001
Eminem - Slim Shady LP
Eminem - Marshall Mathers LP
Nelly - Country Grammar
Nas - Illmatic
Nas - Stillmatic

I think Chronic 2001/Black Album is the clear winner though.

This is obviously a joke?

How can you leave off the two best albums of the artist you chose to win (Chronic/Reasonabel Doubt)?

I hate rap, but I'd nominate Run-DMC - Raising Hell. I think it's the only rap album I've ever owned.

Were the other OUTKASTs not RAP enough? If so, I understand, if not, they should be added on as well.

GOOD LIST
