Tracks/Skits Perfect Union

What are your fav ten albums if you can name ten where the skits/interludes are just as or almost as important as the actual songs? You never-rarely skip any skits/interludes on said album...

About the only 3 in which I rarely if ever skip the skits are....

Biggie- Life After Death
Black Sheep- A Wolf In Sheep's Clothing
Fugees- The Score

The skits on these albums are entertaining and don't last too long.

eMc- The Show
Royce Da 5'9"- The Album (only one skit, but it's funny, and it goes well with the next song)
One Be Lo- S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M.
BlackStar- BlackStar (if Yo Yeah and B Boys Will Be Boys count in this)

That's all I can think of off of the top

B Boys will Be Boys is my 2nd fav song on the Blackstar album next to Definition.

Group Home-Living Proof
Raekwon-Only Built For Cuban Linx
Ruff Ryders-Ruff Ryders Vol 1
Pete Rock and CL Smooth-Mecca And The Soul Brother
Mobb Deep-The Infamous

those are some of the first ones that came to mind

None, skits are bullshit 99.9% of the time, and they're never nearly as important as the actual songs.

Sticky Fingas- Black Trash
Raekwon- OB4CL
Wu Tang- Enta Da 36 Chambers
Redman- Doc's Da Name
Redman- Whut Thee Album?
NWA- N4Life
Cube- Death Certificate
Jadakiss- Kiss The Game Goodbye
Black Sheep- A Wolf
Poison Clan- Poisonous Menatlity

All of these have almost perfect skits to me that make these albums what they are.

Outkast - The Love Below




:bounce:

Prince Paul - A Prince Among Thieves....i actually look forward to the skits on this album

Redman's Muddy Waters... skits are hilarious and even if they don't actually add completely to the next song, they have their place.

Yeah Redman always have excellent skits on his albums add Malpractice to that list also. Love Below is another good pick.

Megalon's Penny 4 your Thoughts

eMC - The Show
Masta Ace - Disposable Arts
Masta Ace - Long Hot Summer
Jazzy Jeff - Return of the Magnificent
De La Soul - 3 Feet High and Rising
De La Soul - De La Soul is Dead (CLASSIC SKITS)

Ice Cube - AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted
Snoop - Doggystyle

The skits in OB4CL are the best example of the tracks/skits perfect union I can think of. Those are so important in setting the backdrop and mood for the stories being told that I can't even imagine listening to that album without the skits. I also agree that Muddy Waterz' skts are hilairious. My fave is Da Stickup. Chicken & Beer had some funny ass skits too.

Word Of Mouf has classic skits... The one with white people is hilarious

How can you guys forget GZA Liquid Swords?! That's a very good example of effectively used skits. Maybe this album doesn't count because the "skits" are actually movie snippets or something, idk.

Anyway, I think NY-OIL- Hood Treason, and Wise Inelligent's Talented Timothy Taylor have good skits.

Ice Cube-The Predator

Kanye West-College Dropout
