I was simply asking what YOU think the best albums were, and albums YOU will never get tired of hearing. I never said it had to be just old school.
 
Gang Starr- Moment of truth

Big L- Lifestylez Ov Da Poor and Dangerous

Some of my favorites
 
I was generalizing. There def is still hope but as a whole it seems pretty bleak out there.

The prime has come and gone. It's sad but it's the way it is. Still refreshing to hear some new shit that doesn't suck every once in a while.
 
I don't even listen to rap and i know that your list sucks ass.

I'm not going to list 5 because like I said I don't know that much, but my list would include

Low End Theory - A Tribe Called Quest

Hello Nasty - Beastie Boys

36 Chambers - Wu Tang
 
My list, here we go.

Life After Death

Ready to Die

Moment of Truth

The Stroll

The Lightyear Mixtape

The Melody

Look, "top" implies it's selling the most or is the most influential. Let's talk about rap that is just fucking GOOD no matter what.

i completely agree that 99% of new hip hop is terrible, but i must say this album is amazing. Incredible lyricists, and all live instrumentation. In my opinion its the album of the year to say the very least

why that image didnt work i do not know, but it was a picture of ¡mayday! - take me to your leader

im also really into uk rap, its not for everyone, but i just find that for some reason their accent makes them very precise with their wording and their songs generally have an awesome flow, theyre also ridiculously good at double time rapping. Two really good albums to check out in that style are United Colours of Beggattron, and Asylum Speakers, both by Foreign Beggars
 
Nah someone mentioned that, personally I'm not a fan of west coast hip-hop for the most part but that shit was revolutionary.
 
5: (no order)

The Dreamer, The Believer (best album in a while)

Moment Of Truth

Donuts

Disposable Arts

Illmatic

Honorable mentions:

36 Chambers

Ready to die

Don't Sweat The Technique

The Only Color That Matters Is Green

Probably forgot a lot.
 
(Only the first one is in order because it's my favorite Hip-Hop album of all time.)

1. Jay-Z, Reasonable Doubt

2. Nas, Illmatic

3. Wu-Tang Clan, 36 Chambers

4. Mobb Deep, The Infamous

5. Digable Planets, Reachin' (A New Refutation of Time and Space)
 
Can't believe I forgot and nobody else mentioned the Bay Area legends Andre & Andre! It's not top 5 best or most influential or whatever but it's for sure in my top 5. Either Andre & Andre or Cocaine Raps. King Nicky and Mac Dre are my shit.
 
You down wit that locc to da brain sicc baby killin shit?

I like your style. Brotha Lynch is another Bay Area legend. And Tech is sick as well.

If you haven't heard check out X-Raided

 
BY FAR THE BEST ALBUM.

whats the difference (that dude from pimp my ride is in it)
