Frankly it was impossible to choose one so I voted for one that might not get recognised as much.

Cypress Hill. Don't front: certified classic.

It's Brand Nubian - One for All, and I voted for that. Thank God you didn't put Midnight Marauders in here or I might've cried.

As an album, I preferred Temple of Boom

this is difficult, but to this day i've listened to low end theory more than any of those albums, and still enjoy it as much as i first did.

Shit! I voted for ATCQ's Low End Theory but upon reflection, I think I'd rather vote for Death Certificate.

As do I personally, I'm listneing to it as I type this. but that does'nt take away from the first one.

Muggs elevated sampling with this one and changed the game for a decade straight up. NO ONE was making beats this dark and sampling what he was sampling. Rza and Gravediggaz era Prince Paul (not to mention Trip-Hop as a whole genre) are artistically indebted to Muggs (even if they then subsequently built on it)
