Considering those are my three favorite and most listened to rap cds, this was an extremely easy decision.

You put enough good albums on there I dont' get where torture is coming from, maybe i'm dumb. I like every album on the list except the benzino one which I haven't heard.

pete rock & cl smooth - mecca and the soul brother (assuming that's what u meant... and if not, i'd take the main ingredient)
black moon - enta da stage

Cryptic One · Post by **Cryptic One** » Thu Jan 20, 2005 1:32 pm

these two:
gang starr - moment of truth
a tribe called quest - low end theory

3rd one would be between these 3... but i would probably go with main source
pete rock & cl smooth - return of the mecca
black moon - enta the stage
main source - breaking atoms

Ethix Skeptro · Post by **Ethix Skeptro** » Thu Jan 20, 2005 1:39 pm

beastie boys - paul's boutique

I'd pick this because it's a dope album that I have barely listened to in ten years, so it might survive more spins.

ice cube - amerikkka's most wanted

My favorite rap album, ever. I haven't gotten tired of it yet.

main source - breaking atoms

A no-brainer.

Bring Back The Tempo · Thu Jan 20, 2005 10:30 pm

i'd take something three that're all different styles.

main source - breaking atoms (i wouldn't take pete rock and cl cause large pro and pete rock are on the same tip as far as producing goes)

amerikka's most wanted

and either

redman - dare iz a darkside (because if i were to be stranded on any island, i'd bring funkadelic's "maggot brain" with me. and in this list, redman's the closest thing to funkadelic)

or the album I grew up with black moon's "enta da stage"
