Illmatic for #1. I can't imagine anyone not placing it somewhere on their ballot. [Is promptly proved wrong]

We need to talk about Bevan (DL), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:15 (fifteen years ago)

way too low

President Keyes, Friday, 3 June 2011 17:15 (fifteen years ago)

"ever have an album you like everything about except the way it sounds, like the actual frequencies it puts out? that's me with fear of a black planet. I like the songs, the rhymes, etc, but the production job on it keeps me at a distance. every couple of years I go back to it hoping I can get with it but so far, no."

Same boat.

Spottie_Ottie_Dope, Friday, 3 June 2011 17:16 (fifteen years ago)

should have beat all Wu

shalmaneser (tpp), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:16 (fifteen years ago)

low end theory is the rap album every college student owns and that is not a bad thing

backpacker van beethoven (Edward III), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:17 (fifteen years ago)

Fat Boys!

Bert Macklin, F.B.I. (thebingo), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:17 (fifteen years ago)

Really surprised Low End isn't top 5. Seriously.

EZ Snappin, Friday, 3 June 2011 17:17 (fifteen years ago)

illmatic is great, no READY TO DIE.

Bert Macklin, F.B.I. (thebingo), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:18 (fifteen years ago)

I can't remember if I voted for Illmatic, kinda don't think so. It's good and all, but I don't really love it to death or anything.

metally ill (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:18 (fifteen years ago)

shalmaneser (tpp), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:19 (fifteen years ago)

Liquid Swords
36 Chambers
OB4CL

metally ill (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:19 (fifteen years ago)

xpost I'm the exact opposite - prefer Nation song for song but adore the production on Black Planet - so dense and heavy, like nothing else.

Predicted final 10 (not in order): De La, PE, Beasties, Dre, Outkast, Nas, Biggie, GZA, Raekwon, Wu

Bert Macklin, F.B.I. (thebingo), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:21 (fifteen years ago)

Liquid Swords is dope as fuck all the through and deserves to be top 20.

WHO THE FUCK READS THE (a hoy hoy), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:22 (fifteen years ago)

I like Liquid Swords but NOT MORE THAN GODDAMNED THE LOW END THEORY

low-rent black gangster nicknamed Bootsy (DJP), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:22 (fifteen years ago)

So no Geto Boys or Redman in top 100? That's a shame.

EZ Snappin, Friday, 3 June 2011 17:22 (fifteen years ago)

"4th chamber" is still my fave wu moment

backpacker van beethoven (Edward III), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:22 (fifteen years ago)

shalmaneser (tpp), Friday, 3 June 2011 17:22 (fifteen years ago)

Paid in full is overrated as an album. Next 2 records are both better.
