Pac is in my top 3, might as well be my GOAT.

It's Dark is my shit but some folks try to front on that album. To me it is as good as Ready To Die, Illmatic, and any other great debut album.

who hates on it? that album gets a ton of respect from people but like Steve said its slept on now which is true. I think people hate more on his other albums, they just forget to mention Its Dark... among hip hop classics, which it is

Ahhh,,,dope list KJ. A few surprises in there to me. Like The Fix, Aquemini, and IABDT. All all in my top 50-100 albums of all time easily.

Yeah Aquemini is my fav Kast album, I know most here favor ATLiens but I thought Andre went into beast mode on Aquemini with all of his quotable verses. On a given day, that album rises higher on my list.

The Fix is my fav Face album. I like how personal he got on certain tracks (My Block, In Between Us, Someday, Hold Me Down, etc) and the production was bangin. Mr Scarface is Back almost made my list. It's probably in my Top 30.

It's A Big Daddy Thing was Kane at his finest IMO. I love Long Live The Kane as well but IABDT had more overall bangers IMO.

Thanks Kev, your list is pretty dope too although I'm surprised that you like Niggaz4life better than The Chronic and SOC.

I know you're new around these parts, but there are plenty of people past and present who have hated on this album.

I completely agree. Andre did not have a single wasted verse on Aquemini. He was in a zone few have ever reached before.

Yeah Dre was a beast on Aquem but that beast started on ATLiens..lol.

You know what I think I just luv the fuck you attitude of N4Life, it holds near to me a certain time in my young life also. So many memories with that album and it is the ultimate F you to all the critics after Cube left. I also luv SOC but time has not been kind imo to the whole album so that is the only reason it fell some spots. Still a KRob classic though..lol.

Yo Slang I like your list also man. There are a few albums on yours that make my top 50-100 also like Supreme Clientele, Illmatic, Sun Rises In The East, Ridin Dirty, and Liquid Swords. All are must haves for any hip hopper. That just shows no matter how differnt people taste are some albums are just classic no matter what.

^ i actually like the production better on N4Life but as whole album album id give it to SOC

In no particular order except number one

Kool John, you have The Blueprint twice, lol. How has no one noticed yet?

I know that's probably more than 25 and those are in no particular order but those are my favorite albums without looking and making a list so I figured that's probably the most honest way to do it.

Wow Jeff...nice list. I'm surprised by Blood Doctrine, From Start, and College Dropout. College Dropout is in my top 30 or so easily. Believe it or not Car Fulla may make my top 100.

nice list Nero im really surprised to see College Dropout up there though cuz it doesnt seem to fit with the rest

that list is bullshit....most of those albums aren't from your favorite rappers, nice job trying to fit in tho.

Steve you've been a fucking douche to me lately, would you like me to up pictures of my cd collection? I have every Outkast album, most of Kurupt's catalogue, most of the Snoop albums (I stopped buying after Blue Carpet), every Mobb Deep album, every Jay-Z album, every Nas album, two Big Pun cds, all of those Scarface albums (thought I know I need to get up on the Geto Boys), every Ye album except his newest, every TI cd, at one point I had every DMX cd but I stopped buying before Grand Champ dropped...I don't know what the fuck your problem is. Just because I big up Sandman and lesser known mcs a lot doesn't mean I don't listen to other shit. Actually The Infamous and Gangsta's Paradise should probably be up there too but I didn't think of them so they probably don't fit. A Song 4 U and Blood Doctrine may be a lil premature but I haven't stopped bumping them at least once a week since I bought them so they count IMO. How about you hop on some one else's dick for a few, eh?

"that list is bullshit....most of those albums aren't from your favorite rappers, nice job trying to fit in tho."

Royce, One Be Lo, or K-Rino wouldn't have albums in my top 25...

N3R0, you spelled Southernplayalisticcadillacmuzik wrong

1)Bizzy Bone
2)Haystak
3)Chino Xl
4)Tech N9ne
5)Sandman
6)Eminem
7)Scarface
8)Big Pun
9)Kool G Rap

15)Jay-Z

17)Scarface
18)King Gordy
19)Game
20)Jelly Roll

Don't see 50 Cent on your list...K-Rino, 3-6 Mafia, Bubba Sparxxx, Cage, Pharoahe Monch, Outkast, DMX, Immortal Technique, El-P, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Kurupt, Kanye West, 2Pac, NWA on your list either. That's why your list seems so fake and phony. Your GOAT Haystak has 2 albums? Jelly Roll Has none, Game has none, King Gordy has none, Ill Bill has none, twista has none, Esham has none, Royce has none, Krayzie has none, G Rap has none, Scarface is on your list twice (LMAO), and Sandman has none. Which is why it's a fake ass list.

1) You pay far too much attention to what I type

2) Just because an artist is my "favorite" doesn't mean that they've made my favorite album. It's entirely possible they're more consistent OR have a classic song here or there but don't pull our the classic album OR that I simply like their style overall more than another MC even if that other mc has a better discography.

3) I made a mistake and put some one twice, I don't dwell on this shit like others do. Are you a compulsive list-maker? That's a symptom of...guess what, BI-POLAR DISORDER. Cheap shot I know, but you're a dick.

4) Get off my dick

5) No, seriously, go bug some one else

6) Really, we're done here

7) Fuck off very much.


Finally, I love how you talk so much shit about every one else's tastes and blah blah blah but you never respond to these yourself.

Jay-Z- Reasonable Doubt (GOAT)
Blue Scholars- Blue Scholars
Blu & Exile- Below the Heavens
Tupac- Me Against the World
Lupe Fiasco- Food & Liquor

Jedi Mind Tricks- Servants in Heaven, Kings in Hell
Nas- Illmatic
Scarface- The Diary
Cradle Orchestra-Velvet Ballads
Bizzy Bone- A Song 4 You
Biggie- Ready to Die

"Jay-Z- Reasonable Doubt (GOAT)"

NOW I remember why you have such awful taste

"3) I made a mistake and put some one twice, I don't dwell on this shit like others do. Are you a compulsive list-maker? That's a symptom of...guess what, BI-POLAR DISORDER. Cheap shot I know, but you're a dick."



Lol. No response at all besides anger at getting called out.

i will rape you zoltar. right by the beach.

Steve give it a break man. Can the man get to know you first? Got damn.

Why do you want to rape me man? Are you a homosexual?

Indeed he is. He has e-raped many a screen name

Ahhh. A serial e-rapist.

To go along with a serial e-screen name faker. We make quite a pair!
