| My Favourite Rap/hip Hop Albums
Some of my personal favourites. | | 10 |  | Kanye West
The College Dropout
I listened to this a few weeks ago for the first time in several years, and it's still as
great as the first time I heard it. Say what you want about Kanye West, but he has
made some goddamn good albums. | | 9 |  | De La Soul
3 Feet High And Rising
De La Soul's most popular record, most famous probably for the single "The Magic
Number" which was a top ten hit over in the UK. | | 8 |  | Dr. Dre
2001
This is the first rap album I ever listened to, it's not as great to me now that I've
gotten older, but it is still a classic, and will always be one of my favourites. | | 7 |  | Cypress Hill
Black Sunday
Filled with weed worshipping lyrics from the start, the unique sound of B-Real's
nasally rapping draws me in straight away, in spite of the sometimes cheesy lyrics. | | 6 |  | A Tribe Called Quest
The Low End Theory
Incredibly chilled album. Jazz and Hip Hop working amazingly in tandem. | | 5 |  | GZA
Liquid Swords
A masterpiece from the mastermind of the Wu. Full of the movie samples and
theatrics that made me love Wu-Tang Clan. | | 4 |  | Outkast
Stankonia
This album is pure nostalgia for me, I remember hearing "Sorry Ms Jackson" when I
was about 5, and instantly falling in love with it, reciting all of the words to it
wrong. The whole album is wonderful, and my favourite of Outkast's. | | 3 |  | Run The Jewels
Run The Jewels
A great modern Rap album, fantastic production, and a fantastic duo of Killer Mike
and El-P. | | 2 |  | Wu-Tang Clan
Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
The album that comes to my head when I think of 90s Hip Hop and Gangsta Rap.
Absolute classic. | | 1 |  | Black Star
Black Star
This is album is just immense, it's filled with superb beats, fantastic production, and
lyrically, is incredibly creative, on point, and talks about the social issues of the
time. Talib Kweli and Mos Def accompany each other very well, too. | |

10.08.14 | There's obviously a lot of albums that I could have put in here too, like some albums from Ghostface Killah, Nas, Jay Z, NWA, Mobb Deep, ODB, Mos Def, etc. | GnarlyShillelagh
10.09.14 | Have you listened to the roots? I think you would dig things fall apart and do you want more for sure based on these | FrankieFrog
10.09.14 | 4 sucks.
Have you listened to any Atmosphere at all? Slug is the closest thing to pure poetry in hip hop. | LambsBread
10.09.14 | yeah these albums are all awesome | FrankieFrog
10.09.14 | Honestly, the list just comes off as generic list of "great rap albums that everyone 'should' listen to"....except for maybe the Cypress Hill inclusion.
That's just my .02. | LambsBread
10.09.14 | "Slug is the closest thing to pure poetry in hip hop."
ridiculous. | FrankieFrog
10.09.14 | Slug is the G.O.A.T.
Fuck what anyone says. | PappyMason
10.09.14 | Nice list man.
Yh, 1 is amazing. The first time I heard it, I was hooked. | LambsBread
10.09.14 | dude Slug is awesome but hes not even top 25, probably even by his own admission, cmon | LambsBread
10.09.14 | 1 was probably THE album that got me into real hip hop and out of boring ass cash money hoe rap | FrankieFrog
10.10.14 | Honestly, I'd rather listen to Weezy than about half of this list. |
