Better hip hop album than illmatic

Paullelujah!

hah...just kidding. Madvillainy is better than illmatic, in my opinion. And as an album, Beauty and the Beat is pretty awesome.
 
im not a HUGE B.I.G fan but that just me

but i'd say its hard to find a better all around album then illmatic

deffinetly there's also enter the 36 chambers, the chronic, paid in full, EPMD, madvillany and others that i forget to mention
 
i wouldn't judge by beats. going by lyrcis and rhymes, i'm sure illmatic wins. (that is if we're talking about what i think we are)
 
gza - liquid swords

wu tang - Enter The Wu-Tang 36 Chambers

dr. dre - dre 2001

outkast - Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik (if you havnt heard this album you havnt lived)

de la soul - 3 feet high and rising

erik b and rakim - paid in full

the last 2 are old school but fuckin sweet
 
Jay-Z - Reasonable Doubt

Notorious BIG - Ready To Die

and if you wanna hate on Jay-Z, go for it, but listen to that CD and you'll understand why he always says it should've been a classic...it's a ridiculous album.
