I know this has prolly been asked a million times, but i was just discussin this with a few of my hometown friends.. Curious to see what the rest of you think, i might be missing something, & i might hear of a dope CD i never heard before...

No particular order but...

1. Illmatic- Nas
2. The Chronic- Dr. Dre
3. Marshall Mathers LP- Eminem
4. Lifestylez Ov Da Poor & Dangerous- Big L
5. Ready to Die-BIG
6. Stillmatic-Nas
7. Reasonable Doubt- Jay Z
8. Get Rich Or Die Tryin- 50
9. Enter the Wutang CLan: 36 Chambers
10. Slim Shady LP

wish i could fit in.. The Blueprint, a couple Pac albums, 4:21-The Day After (Method Man), 2001 Chronic, The Documentary, The Big Picture, Doggystyle, & even The Hunger For More was dope..

Shit is hard to compare. I try to involve all types of songs in my top 10 list, including the Hits, & the real shit that touches ya emotions.

What Do Y'all Think?

Eminem Show was actually one of the first CDs i ever bought lol back when i was 9-10 y/os lol but i just think Slim Shady LP & MMLP is better imo. But Eminem Show is def 3rd for him

Wow this is a hard question lol.
My first CD I ever bought myself and owned was D12 World. (parents didn't like it ahaha)
I'm going to name my top 10 for personal enjoyment, not lyricism. Because for example, I really enjoyed Eminem's album encore, however I know that's not fucking with Infinite. So, my favorite. (in no particular order)

Doggystyle - Snoop dogg
Jackpot - Chingy
Raw - Hopsin
The Red Light District - Ludacris
Life After Death - Biggie
All Eyes On Me - Tupac
The Big Picture - Big L
The Black Album - Jay Z
Laugh Now, Cry Later - Ice Cube
Marshall Mathers LP, Slim Shady LP, Eminem Show, 8 mile, Recovery - Eminem. (Couldn't choose one, I've always thoroughly enjoyed all his work)

I always bumped NWA stuff, anything Eazy-e, i always listened to Papoose, Cassidy, 50cent, and many many many more, but these are CD's I always remember bumping consistently, when a lot of other artists I would pick and choose songs, where as I bumped the whole album for those.

Phil Banks aha i was about to put a Marvin Gaye CD down but i only know a few songs off of it (just the popular ones)

For Mobb Deep, I fucks wit Infamous & Murda Muzik but it's hard to choose which one is better.

Mr-Felon
05-11-2014, 03:06 PM
only song i fuck with off of slim shady lp was "if I had a million dollars"

Def gotta have the Chronic and 2001... Stillmatic and Reasonable Doubt two of the greatest albums... Tupac Greatest hits(don't know if greatest hits cheating, but damn... must have)... Enter the 36 chambers(prob the only Wu Tang joint I really jammed too)... being from the south I luv Jeezy the inspiration... t.i. king and trap musik... Pun capital punishment... Blueprint... theres a lot more but that's sum of my main joints I fucked with... and I remember when get rich or die trying drop... its the only 50 joint I fucked with but damn... that shit stayed in the CD player for months...

The Dope Man
05-11-2014, 08:55 PM
Phil Banks don't think i've listened to that album by Mobb Deep...

Mr-Felon Shiii, I fuck wit that whole CD... Rock Bottom, Still Don't Give A Fuck, Just Don't Give A Fuck, '97 Bonnie Clyde, As the World Turns (story is dope), Role Model, Brain Damage, My Name Is (played out now), Guilty Conscience (played out), I'm Shady, & Royce & Em kill it in Bad Meets Evil.

I miss tha old Eminem... even tho i been fuckin wit MMLP2, but not a fan of Recovery or Relapse.

Pockets-Poppin yeah i feel you, all my fav Tupac songs are scattered through like 7 CDs Lol.. hard to choose.. So I'd prolly say Greatest Hits as well Lol & 50 only had that one dope album IMO, fell off ever since Game dissed him.


But Damn... Seems like everyone for the most part has the same Top Albums or atleast same Artists in their Prime.. A lot of repeat selections...

In conclusion, 90s & early 2000s >>>>>>> present.

I love hearing some new music that i can vibe wit & relate too, but they don't get the same plays as my favorites. I still bump that classic Rap shit the most.

You Can't Remake Classics, Just Ask The Game LoL

05-11-2014, 09:22 PM
BLUNT-MAN there's good songs being made... but its hard to find an album you can put on and let it play... def agree that period was better than today... for me Reasonable doubt Stillmatic and Ready to die(which I forgot to mention) once they start I can't skip a track cause they are complete albums... can I live, gimme the loot and juicy... that's what got me hooked to hip hop, real talk...

word, i always go back to the classics aswell.. new shit is always refreshing though. As for new artists, Ive been fuckin wit Big K.r.i.t for awhile. Dudes a monster on the boards and wit that flow.

Yeah I fucked with early Eminem but not everything but he changed his style up as of late BUT he still drops songs i fuck with here and there MMLP2 i felt he tapped back into some of his roots

The Dope Man
05-12-2014, 01:22 AM
no doubt, i actually ignored MMLP2 for awhile cuz i wasn't a fan of bezerk or monster.. but after lookin past his mainstream songs, shit def reminded me of the Ol Em..

Saxx
05-12-2014, 01:28 AM
Love MMLP2 I'd say my top 2 albums I always come back to are

The Eminem Show
and...

Dre 2001

Oh for some reason I thought you were like 30+, But still strange to hear that from a older dude who was around for his Old Shit.. Have you always listened to Rap?...MMLP2 is like his old shit.. but fuck Relapse & even Recovery, Encore is def not up there with his classics

05-13-2014, 10:54 AM

MMLP was the best tho?... That's his prime right there. When all the controversy hit, that album defined em. Drug Ballad is my GOAT song.

& im only 22 lol & you def dont act like a 30 y/o on here but your cooler than Snoopy, he's 33 and acts like a gossiping little girl when he trys n beefs. smh save that for another day tho aha
