I'm glad this poll is really even. It makes it more interesting, but if one more person votes "College Dropout" I'm locking this bitch up. Newjacks!

surprisingly easy choice...but imo that album should be up there with Illmatic.

"Follow the Leader" was a close second though. My favorite Rakim album ever.
I CONCUR!

Not to take anything away from his debut, but c'mon guys did you see the other 9 selections?
Seriously...

I went with Personal Journals although I think Hope is better. Next in line would be Nas, then EB and Rah.

i will reply before i vote here.

this is b/w follow the leader and hell on earth to me. i picked hell on earth b/c of the defenitive grimey sound. it was close to me though.

simply because (some MC's have luck but suck..lol) it is a blueprint album and a fucking classic that influenced so many artists and still an LP i rock frequently, you won't be saying that about your bullshit and corny College Dropout in 10 years.
