Relinquished 09.12.22	oh shit didn’t expect such a classic list blessing today
DominionMM1 09.12.22	8ball- lost 8ball & mjg- in our lifetime vol. 1 the kaze- kamakazie timez up
Drifter 09.12.22	potsy your picks bewilder me but epic list nonetheless. have had that cali agents on cd for nearly 2 years and i dont think ive even jammed it yet lol. gotta fix that. but like man schizophrenic is good but i'd have picked Never Grow or Before I Go or Don't Doubt Me or some others before it. and also 211 from p? you ASTOUND me. like Late Night Creepin or Playa Haterz or Anything Goes are so much better lol
Drifter 09.12.22	sick I Wanna Thank You shout for 40 though cause that's arguably been my favorite song from that album for years
PotsyTater 09.12.22	@Wolfe 🤙 @dominion will peep @drift not long ago I wouldn’t have fucked wit any of that stuff at all so I’d count it as a blessing that our paradoxical hip hop tastes have reconciled even this much
Drifter 09.12.22	tru tru lol my contribution to this list would be the title track off young dre d's troubled mind
PotsyTater 09.12.22	Saved 🤙
Drifter 09.12.22	beware of da kreep is another ive got playlisted from that album but that title track is just so ~vibey~
PotsyTater 09.12.22	Well… Prepare to be imminently disappointed by my pick in an upcoming list 😂
butt. 09.12.22	hell yeah this list kicks ass. also I may be out of the loop - is this potsy account like.. lord(())pots))e)()()(
PotsyTater 09.12.22	That’s meeee
butt. 09.12.22	old account get banned or something? lol
Avagantamos 09.12.22	52 is classic =]
PotsyTater 09.12.22	This is my old account Well, second oldest, silentpotato was first
PotsyTater 09.12.22	@avagantamos the alternate art is so good I kinda want to edit it to that
Keyblade 09.12.22	aww shit it's crazy that these have
PotsyTater 09.12.22	Assuming I know how that sentence was supposed to end yes I agree it’s crazy that some of these have 20 or less ratings lol
Drifter 09.12.22	yeah 52 is crazy classic. killa whale especially but so many golden songs. that a cappella always lingers in my head
Drifter 09.12.22	i should do one of these lists since its like half of what my ratings consist of lol
combustion07 09.12.22	I Hate You With a Passion is one of my favorite rap albums of all time. Also got 24 Deep when I was real young and I love it so much. 9,10,13,58, and 81 are all amazing also. Tons of great stuff here and a handful I need to check still. Crazy to me that the Brotha Lynch, Dre Dog and Fu Schnikens don't have 20 votes
Drifter 09.12.22	how ya do dat is such an insane song. happy perez was such a sick producer. the first 2 concentration camp albums are so good because of it. the second one even has the original? version of that song with just young bleed called "A Fool"
PotsyTater 09.12.22	@combustion I knoo, this site is slackin hard on some pretty obvious stuff. Like a bunch of these would not by any means be “overlooked” by any other metric.
Avagantamos 09.12.22	Ten Wanted Men - Ten Toes Down with only 3.3 and 7 ratings is a damn shame
PotsyTater 09.12.22	Also combustion peep that 2pac thread, You mentioned Sean price being one of your all time GOATS and I wanted to pick your brain about it a bit
PotsyTater 09.12.22	@avantagamos I’ll make that 8 soon
Keyblade 09.12.22	lol the less than sign strikes again. yeah that's what I was saying, crazy that some of them have less than 20 ratings considering they're legit classics
PotsyTater 09.12.22	Yeah bro. And man, you should see some of the albums that only had 30-50 ratings lmao. Shit is straight up bewildering.
Drifter 09.12.22	pots you need to jam rappin 4 tay's off parole. i dont know why dont fight the feelin is considered his classic cause that album is super repetitive and dated, even for 94 off parole's production is stellar and his lyrics were never tighter
Drifter 09.12.22	i know every comment i make is "pots you need to jam this" but just take it with no urgency because i dont want to be annoying 🙏
PotsyTater 09.12.22	It’s all good dude I take all ur recs as long as ur patient with me actually listening to them I’ll keep takin em
Drifter 09.12.22	😘
Mort. 09.13.22	Bahamadia is excellent
someone 09.13.22	hey this is good, actually
PotsyTater 09.13.22	Well yeah I mean it’s me
Drifter 09.21.22	potter i have an urgent question please respond
PotsyTater 09.22.22	Sup
Drifter 09.22.22	ok is the version of master p's album the ghettos trying to kill me you've been jamming been the one on streaming services
normaloctagon 09.22.22	Large professor aye
PotsyTater 09.22.22	@drift yes on Spotify why
Drifter 09.22.22	nooooo you need to listen to the og 1994 "king george" edition. in 97 P rereleased it without any of King George's vocals, even taking some songs off the album and it brings it down remarkably. it also adds in 2 songs from 97 that have no place on the original. seek it out on youtube or soulseek cause its so much better. king george is nearly thee highlight of the album
PotsyTater 09.22.22	Mail me it on vinyl for Christmas
Drifter 09.22.22	i'll kill you
PotsyTater 09.22.22	Instead of killing me you should sauce me that vinyl so I can listen to it the correct way
PotsyTater 09.22.22	Any album in particular?
Drifter 09.22.22	it never had a vinyl release and an og cd is like $500 so unfortch i can not
PotsyTater 09.23.22	Contact him and tell him that you need to make me an og pressing so that I can hear the correct version for Christmas im sure he’ll understand
DominionMM1 09.23.22	speaking of gifts where’s my blood mountain lp?
PotsyTater 09.23.22	It must have got intercepted by a tall object, i threw it your direction months ago I swear
MoM 09.23.22	Now this is a list! Thanks so much. I’ll check it out gradually.
PotsyTater 09.23.22	Thanks mom
MoM 09.23.22	You’re welcome, Son. I made dinner, eat up.
Drifter 09.23.22	im surprised you like 69 boyz pots. ive heard a couple of their songs on soundtracks and they were very... horrible
MoM 09.23.22	Trippin’
PotsyTater 09.23.22	@drift they are pretty goofy. Idk about any soundtracks but that album is a fun time kind of in the same way that Nappy roots is a fun time. I don’t think it’s meant to be too serious
parksungjoon 04.21.23	idk how much its actually hip hop but have u heard meat beat manifesto storm the studio and 99%
PotsyTater 04.21.23	I’ve only heard autoimmune but I don’t even remember it
PotsyTater 04.21.23	Oh and subliminal sandwich
parksungjoon 04.21.23	subliminal sandwich is cool but its a more polished style more trip hop illbient shit
Mort. 04.21.23	im listening to hip-hop for the first time in ages atm, checked out juggaknots
PotsyTater 04.21.23	Perhaps I’ll dive deeper
PotsyTater 04.21.23	Juggaknots are good shit Mort did you enjoy
Mort. 04.21.23	i did indeed. gonna give it one more listen before rating and adding tracks to playlist clear blue skies track is 10/10
AsleepInTheBack 04.21.23	Pos
PotsyTater 04.21.23	Mort have you heard prince paul - a prince among thieves?
Mort. 04.21.23	nope never even heard of him! i currently have the following albums queued to check out after juggaknots (keeping one hip hop album in rotation at a time) madvillain - madvillainy the notorious b.i.g - ready to die a tribe called quest - peoples instinctive nujabes - metaphorical music mobb deep - the infamous lauryn hill - the miseducation the roots - things fall apart raekwon - only built 4 cuban my knowledge of hip hop is weak, just want to tackle some of the 'classics'
parksungjoon 04.21.23	at least ur working to fix it, but dont forget public enemy
PotsyTater 04.21.23	So Prince Paul is an OG producer, most notably he did De La Souls first three albums, he is half of Handsome Boy Modelling School with Dan the Automator (who you may know of for Deltron 3030), and a part of Gravediggaz with Rza. A Prince Among Thieves is his hip-hop version of a “rock opera” and Breeze Brewin’ from Juggaknots plays one of the main characters. It also has Kool Keith, Chubb Rock, Biz Markie, Special Ed, Chris Rock (yes that Chris Rock), Rza, Big Daddy Kane, Sadat X, Xzibit and De La Soul on it. Anyways it’s amazing and funny and severely entertaining. Chris Rock bought the rights to make a movie of it but nothing became of it unfortunately. If you liked Juggaknots you should check it as it is also a great Segue into a lot of other classic hip hop things. As for your list those are some good starting points. If I were to add a couple without dropping like 100 recs on you I’d say you should add Black Moon - Enta Da Stage and Slum Village - Fantastic vol. 1 and vol. 2
Drifter 04.22.23	eminem - recovery
PotsyTater 04.22.23	Why would I ever do that
parksungjoon 04.27.23	can u tell me anything about akua naru?
PotsyTater 04.27.23	Beyond the fact that she makes neo-soul/hip hop not really
parksungjoon 04.27.23	i found out about her from a song that played in a restaurant i ate at because im 97 years old apparently
PotsyTater 04.27.23	I haven’t listened to her in years so I don’t have a very current opinion of her, but I vaguely remember listening back to miners canary I think it’s called and thinking it wasn’t as good as I originally did
parksungjoon 04.27.23	been havin that experience a lot in recent years 🥹🥹
PotsyTater 04.27.23	Lol ya same
normaloctagon 04.27.23	"eminem - recovery" pots this is what you get when you rec drifter classic east coast & midwest hip-hop xD
normaloctagon 04.27.23	oh wait maybe you were rec'ing to park point stands tho heh
PotsyTater 04.27.23	😡😡😡
Drifter 04.28.23	recovery rocks
parksungjoon 05.01.23	when you are on the list edit page you open your browser's element inspector (should be Ctrl Shift C on both firefox and chrome) you focus it on the list item description in question and you edit the html property that says maxlength="1000" to be however big you want
parksungjoon 05.01.23	also when you are on the list edit page you open the dev tools (should be f12 on both firefox and chrome) you look for the tab that says Sources you look for a folder called "scripts/lists" inside that you find list_edit.js you look for a function definition that starts with $scope.addAlbum you edit the line that says $scope.form.albums.length < 101 to be however many you want it to be you hit Ctrl S in order to actually save the script file wherever its cached locally by the browser gg now you can have lists with as many albums as you want on them
PotsyTater 05.01.23	Based
parksungjoon 07.23.23	pots u here?
