like i said before i would just include Season of Da Siccness and South Park Psycho probably deserves a bid too...

and Funky Technician

those 3 that ive been pushin for for a while...

Take off Cactus Album, Still Standing, and Stillmatic and put South Park Psycho, Here To Save You All, and Madvillainy in their spots

shit! i didnt even notice Madvillainy wasnt on there that needs to be up ASAP

and i cosign taking off Stillmatic and Still Standing

and please take the Documentary off with the QUICKNESS

EDIT: hey half Madvillainy is on there...

It's on the same level as GRODT so it should stay there IMO

Slang Editorial wrote:

Oh shit my bad. I didn't even look for it I just assumed it wasn't there.

also take Below the Heavens off ASAP that doesnt belong in a tournament like this at all

Oh shit my bad. I didn't even look for it I just assumed it wasn't there.

personally i wouldnt put either but GRODT deserves it WAAAAAY more

id also take Step in the Arena off...Daily Operation and Hard to Earn are enough GS representin IMO

As Nasty As They Wanna Be?

Below The Heavens, Cactus Album, and Documentary belong imo. They are classics to numerous on this forum. But if more say they don't belong than they don't.

I really don't see the need to add South Park Psycho because only 3 of us would vote for it. Same with Season Of The Sicness.

I can see Still Standing coming off.

So we'll replace that with either Funky Tech. or something else.

I thought about that one but 2 Live never gets much luv on this forum so why waste the time. If it was up to me 2nd II None, Hi C and AMG 1st album would be in this.

Documentary really doesn't belong overall. I persoanlly don't think BTH does either.

Yeah, 2LC doesn't go over well here, but that album is far too big to be left off IMO.

Intelligent Hoodlum?

also, Blood Doctrine really doesn't deserve to be there either

Doug E Fresh?

So....so far we have Below The Heavens, Still Standing, Step Into The Arena, and The Documentary being put up for removal.

I strongly feel BTH's belong.

In Control Vol. 1 should be on there easily IMO.

Check Your Head > Licensed To Ill by the way

Half wrote:

Intelligent Hoodlum?

Hell no. Not if were taking Game, Blu, and some of these others off. And hell no to Doug E Fresh. Not over those.

Soundbombing II might show up

I want to keep Game on

Terry thats going to open the flood gates for more albuims like that and bend the norm. I think we should stick to artist albums not comps by producers.

Fair enough, but i thought it was just about dope albums. It's not like it's a random comp. Marley Marl is the common thread throughout the album.

People come on I asked for OBVIOUS omissions. Some of these picks truly just seem random.

I would also argue that LL deserves more than one nomination especially with albums like BTH, Blood Doctrine and The Documentary on the list.

Now we are talking and I agree. Which album? And I agree Blood Doc should not be on here.

MSKYO and BAD then?

I would personally say BAD, but Radio may be more well received by others.

I'm thinking Radio or BAD.

What about Nice N Smooth AADTC and House Of Pain debut album?

damn, House Of Pain's debut is great.

KRob TheRapGod wrote:

Those are both nice picks as well.

Now here's some more I think can truly come off because just like South P Psycho and Season Sic they will only get 2-3 votes:

The Cold Vein
Funcrusher Plus
Internal Affairs
Violent by Design
Disposable Arts

Cold Vein will get a lot more votes than you think

and BTH needs to get the fuck off "soo quick and soo fast", that album did nothing at all to change the game from a creative standpoint

I think all of those should stay and will get 5+ votes.

Below The Heavens is held in high high regards. And it is looked at with as much admiration as Cold Vein, Funcrusher, and those others you want to keep. I do not know really anyone who did not like BTH's.

BTH should stay.. The Documentary should come off, as should Blood Doctrine (haters). And, if you're going to put an LL album, it should really be MSKYO

MSKYO is already on there. And i'll Put Blood Doc and The Doc up for removal.

So to make sure we are on the same page so far these are up for removal:

The Documentary
Blood Doctrine
Still Standing
Step Into The Arena

What about 21 & Over? I'll take Step Into the Arena, Still Standing, and The Documentary over that one.

Nooooo!!!! Not The Documentary!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

We have all these coming off but none going on really.....lol.

Only Funky Tech. seems to have a chance to make it. So we may just keep the rest.

I don't want The Doc taken off either. Wew need to keep some new school classics in this.

How the hell are you going to put BTH over Still Standing, Step into the Arena, Season of Da Siccness, etc..

All BTH did was use a formula that has been done countless times. Sure i hold it in high regard but please, creatively, that album did nothing to advance hip hop musically in any way, shape, or form. Season of Da Sic, South Park Psycho, etc were not only better but SOOO MUCH MORE IMPORTANT AND ORIGINAL

Look, I understand that my tastes are WAY different than the majority of this forum but I find it criminal that Adrenaline Rush, Picture This, and Chapter 2 : World Domination are not on this list. They are miles better than many others that are on here.
