09.09.10 | Good mornin', Sputnik! How is everyone today? |
Idnuf
09.09.10 | You planning to do an overlooked section? Cuz so far it's basically been the top 100 hip-hop albums reposted in chunks. |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | Yep, a LOT of 'overlooked' albums will be appearing in the next three installments. |
Idnuf
09.09.10 | Cool, should be interesting, I'm always looking for new good rap albums, if you post up some I don't know, I'll definitely be checking them out. |
Urinetrouble
09.09.10 | will be using these lists as a guide to what i don't have
morning bulldog |
AbrahamLincoln
09.09.10 | i think 10 could belong in the essentials part of the list |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | Ranking these for me, it's probably
4 > 3 > 6 > 2 > 7 > 8 > 10 > 1 > 9 > 5 |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | also, would adding the third installment be a little much? |
SCREAM!
09.09.10 | how are ATCQ next steps? They came before pretty much everything in your basics list and are pretty basic themselves |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | Basics doesn't have anything to do with style. Plus iirc there was already 1 heavily influenced jazz album (illmatic, yo) in there, and The low end theory is definitely not as good as illmatic |
BigHans
09.09.10 | Needs The Diary |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | The Diary will most likely be on the next one. |
notorioussam23
09.09.10 | Doggystyle??? Doggystyle is the Chronic pt.2 really, and maybe a slightly better album. |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | either that or mr scarface is back. idk which i like better |
BigHans
09.09.10 | THe Diary rules hard. |
notorioussam23
09.09.10 | the fix is pretty damn good as well. |
Urinetrouble
09.09.10 | next list should have
Operation doomsday
cypress hill
pete rock and cl smooth
early krs-one
and some underground shizz like last emperor |
Maniac!
09.09.10 | 10 is better than illmatic, bitch. |
BigHans
09.09.10 | lol |
Maniac!
09.09.10 | lol [2] |
Maniac!

AbrahamLincoln
09.09.10 | agreed maniac |
Thor
09.09.10 | Good list again |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | Thanks Thor. I figure that the next one - 'Deep Cuts' - will be a little more original. |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | yay featured |
Dryden
09.09.10 | are you happy |
KILL
09.09.10 | these all rule |
Ire
09.09.10 | 1 was my first hip hop album so fuck you blumpdum |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | deal with it frank turner's love, ire, and song |
iisblackstar
09.09.10 | i prefer low end theory to illmatic, and aquemini is so fuckn good been playing it so much lately |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | Nooooo Illmatic is so much better :(
Aquemini is good too, I'm just personally not that into it. |
Deviant.
09.09.10 | How is The Low End Theory the next step?
|
Bulldog
09.09.10 | It's not literal dude, this is the way iTunes titles their shit. Like I said, in my humble opinion, it's not as essential as the others on 'the basics'. |
hydeyomoney
09.09.10 | Aquemini is probably my favorite on this list along with Low End Theory and Madvillainy. |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | For me, Madvillainy = 5, Low End Theory = 4, Aquemini = 3.5 |
Deviant.
09.09.10 | "this is the way iTunes titles their shit. Like I said, in my humble opinion,"
If its your humble opinion, why are you copying iTunes? |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | I want to respond to you Deviant, except the way you phrased your question makes it impossible. So, yea... |
Psilocyanide
09.09.10 | Pete Rock & CL Smooth- Mecca and the Soul Brother
Should really be on one of these lists |
taroo
09.09.10 | So... if I was going to get into hip-hop I would listen to these too? |
Bulldog
09.09.10 | @Taroo - yes
@Psi - have no fear. just you wait |
