what is the greatest rap/r'n'b album ever?
From what I've listened to it would have to be: Ready to Die, Illmatic, Reasonable Doubt or The Massacre.darek_arsenal said:what is the greatest rap/r'n'b album ever?
Whats wrong with Late Registration???hiphophooray123 said:lol yeah tha massacre keke
nah all i know is it definently isn't late registration or college dropout.
my fav urban album is reasonable doubt but i don't think it objectively is the greatest rap album ever. That title belongs to either paid in full or illmatic maybe hmm.
I heard Definition and Get em high (full songs with all verses) back to back on nova yesterday night! I wonder what show that is. Any idea?hiphophooray123 said:nothing is wrong with LR or CD they are great albums imo, but when considering 'the greatest hip hop album ever' they are NOT anywhere CLOSE to consideration, no hip hop fan would consider LR as the greatest of all time, maybe some pop bimbo whos like 'lolz omg gold digger' but thats about it.
Oyy come on, everyone who answers this question looks at how old the album is and how classic the rapper is....ive seen the other forums and people say Illmatic and Ready to Die {note that Nas and the Notorious B.I.G are my favourite rappers after Kanye} but they arent the best albums...Stillmatic is better than Illmatic and Life After Death is better than Ready to Die....and when it comes to Late Registration, where has anyone ever heard better instrumentals and producing than that....lyrics are top...guest features are top....the samples are mad....and its one that doesnt jus talk about bitches and drive bys...though it jus got released now, people will appreciate it as the best rap album made.....hiphophooray123 said:nothing is wrong with LR or CD they are great albums imo, but when considering 'the greatest hip hop album ever' they are NOT anywhere CLOSE to consideration, no hip hop fan would consider LR as the greatest of all time, maybe some pop bimbo whos like 'lolz omg gold digger' but thats about it.
Looks like your into West-Coast rap....icraig88 said:i would have to say it would be either...
Dr Dre - 2001
Snoop Dogg - Doggystyle
or...
G-Unit - Beg For Mercy
lol....i love Kanye...been listening to him since by sister brought back his mixtapes all the way back in 2001....gold digger = mad song = enoying after a while = mad song when your absent from it for time lolicraig88 said:yeah i dun mind east coast either though...
u guys have been talkin bout kanye... for some reason he doesnt really get my attention with his songs... just not appealing enough for me... and gold digger = really annoying
thats just my opinion...
You want production, you can't go past Eric B. The man is insane...And to think that the album was made in the late 80's. You can see when so much of later suff in hip hop came from that album. Even little things you can pinpoint.darek_arsenal said:Oyy come on, everyone who answers this question looks at how old the album is and how classic the rapper is....ive seen the other forums and people say Illmatic and Ready to Die {note that Nas and the Notorious B.I.G are my favourite rappers after Kanye} but they arent the best albums...Stillmatic is better than Illmatic and Life After Death is better than Ready to Die....and when it comes to Late Registration, where has anyone ever heard better instrumentals and producing than that....lyrics are top...guest features are top....the samples are mad....and its one that doesnt jus talk about bitches and drive bys...though it jus got released now, people will appreciate it as the best rap album made.....
