Awesome list. I happen to have both “LAX” and Nas’ “Untitled”, and gotta say both of those albums are so good. I didn’t know what to expect from The Game, but the album was amazing all the way thru, and Nas did his thing as usual. Still don’t understand why people are sleeping on LAX?

i thought your list was great, all the albums are where they are supposed to be, you bridged the gap b/t underground and mainstream, i dont like the mainstream music so much, so my opinion might be swayed on this, i have respect for all rappers. I dont know if you noticed that lil wayne cannot do a track without using auto tune most his lyrics are ghost written, i used to LOVE lil waynes old music, but it seems he just sold out on carter 3, like i listend to the album the whole way through and it makes me really angry. He is making a mockery of hiphop straight up, i know every1 got there own opinion but compare dedecation 2 to carter 3, like where is the substance at for real? and kanyes 808s i understand the mans struggle and tryn to open to a wider audience, but he DIDNT REALLY RAP IN ONE SONG, HE USED AUTO TONE THE WHOLE ALBUM, like the music he mad was really good, but i dont consider the album a rap album.
i am not saying its a bad album, because its not, i just think he should have offered more to his hardcore hiphop fans. OO and be looking out for Canibus’s new shit and if u didnt already go cop For Whom The Beat Tolls, Poet laureate and the infinite concept will BLOW YOUR MINDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Nas…Number 1! Definitely. Good list. One notable missing. Killer Mike “I Pledge Allegiance to the Grind, Part 2″!! A definite Hip Hop Classic.

I listen to a shitload of music, including a good amount of hip-hop and rap. You know nothing of what youre talking about if Opio’s Vulture’s Wisdom Volume One is not on here. I’ve heard 90% of the albums listed here in their entirety and Vulture’s Wisdom shits on them all, flushes them down the toilet, finds them at the sanitation plant, and shits on them again.

I agree that Kanye’s album was good, but it was ABSOLUTELY not hip-hop like the title implies. I will fight this statement to the death. He barely spits any rhymes and although the production is tight, the is almost no rap found in this album. MURS is extremely underrated and deserves more credit, he’s been in the game almost 15 years. As far as a hip-hop ARTIST goes, Nas cannot be beat. But I don’t think that the production was nearly up to par with this album and doesn’t deserve the title of number one. And why am I the only one to mention Kardinal Offishall is on this list? If your bringing in that kind of hip-hop, you might as well throw in Khaled and T-Pain’s similarly shitty albums. Aside from these issues, I do think that this is overall a pretty well put together list.
