T.R.O.Y.'s 1st "Pick your" thread. '88 was too difficult, so I went with '89 here. Yet another amazing year for hip-hop.

I thought Ride The Rhythm was '90?

Anyway, it was between De La and 3rd Bass for me, I went with 3rd Bass.

whitey got the two best albums up there

pauls boutique is the better album i think...but i like the cactus more

since around 1991 ive said 3 feet high is one of the most overrated albums ever and that is still the case today

For once, I completely agree with you.

I was only 9 in '89, and thus really didn't get a chance to listen to these albums in their original context. I've since gone back and bought all of these except Chill Rob G and The Cactus album.

I went with De La though.

Same story as me, but I'm a West Coaster so I went with the DOC, fuckas.

Can everyone at least agree that the cover for 3 Feet High and Rising is pretty damn gay?

Not gay, but certainly not all that it's cracked up to be. Again, I only one of the few who thought "Buhloone" was better than "De La Is Dead." I just thought that album was filled with too much and too many skits.

I hate 99 to 100% of skits. I buy music cds for music. I don't wanna hear any bullshit about 'cohesiveness and blending the songs together,' or 'but some skits are funny as all hell' either.

Plus, even if I do laugh a few times from a hilarious skit, I'm still guaranteed not to give a fuck about it in a month or so.

it was between 3 feet high and paul's boutique.

for some strange reason i decided on paul's boutique.

that was tough though. :?

The D.O.C. No One Can Do It Better with EPMD being a close second. Maybe even De La taking second.

Are you sure you aren't "Impartial" from HHI?
