NWA

Straight Outta Compton

And speaking of Scarface, I wouldn't say The World Is Yours (great) is better than Mr. Scarface Is Back (classic) but The Diary surpassed both.

Thinking about it you might be right. Mr scarface is my alltime fav Scarface album though.

I'd say:

>>>>>>>

and

Fugees, agree. BDP, i dont know fam its hard for me Criminal Minded is my fav album ever lol. I gotta fall back, you might be right though.....

 

[Old Fart]

i like Criminal Minded about the same as By all Means Neccessary. Hard to pick between the two. Both are dope as hell!

Public Enemy " Yo bum rush the show " was good but " It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold us Back " took it to a whole nother level. And I definatly agree that Outkast raised there already high level with ATLiens. BUT in my opinion was able to somehow raise the bar again with " Aquimini " thier third effort. not many in history in any music style have done that.

 

[MR BUD]

Kid Cudi-Man On The Moon 2

 

[eagles215]

LUPE? Hell NO. I dont see how peoplle say The Cool was better. Food & Liquor was flawless

haha i hear u. both of them is great. i just like the cool more cause of the concept. plus hip hop saved my life and the coolest is on that album.

 

[idoitforhiphop10]

all of the ones i was thinkin were said already, but here's one i thought of: jadakiss w/kiss of death

 

[DarcSkies]

I agree. I can't understand why people think that diss song is good.

I heard Bitch In You and I wasnt impressed. I was expecting to hear some powerful shit.

But I heard it years after the whole thing blew over though so maybe it was good when it first came out and time just made it average.

But I dont understand why ppl say it was good either.

I'm a have to say DMX since all the other names are taken.

 

[KingJamal]

I'm a have to say DMX since all the other names are taken.

it was good when it first came out. kuz niggas didnt know common can rap like that as far as a diss. something like when ll destroyed cannibus. niggas didnt think ll had a diss like that in him

FOH,Canibus dismantled LL

 

[DarkGable]

Bonafied classic

Followed by an even better but slept on classic

 

[NAWLEDGE_REIGNS]

Common's best album can't even match AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted, let alone Death Certificate. Glad I have a valid excuse to disregard that overrated diss song. Shiit, Ice Cube saying hip-hop started in west ("Westside Slaughterhouse") makes more sense than Common saying that Cube has not made anything great after his debut. (Oh and "It Was a Good Day" is better than any Common song ever)

And I'm not denying that Common doesn't have his classic album(s), but none of them can match Cube's first two. So don't come at me with "Have you heard resurrection and BE? that shits better than any cube album" because neither of them are even the best Common album I've heard - Like Water for Chocolate is his best.

I Don't Agree....And I Have Both Them Niggas In My Top 5 DOA
