I Digital Bullet a lot too, not as much as the first one, but it's damn good.
Operation Doomsday is the best producer/MC album.

I like them both for different reasons but Digital Bullet is a better album IMO and has held up better over time.

I would vote for Diamond D's Stunts, Blunts as the best producer / rapper lp and for a second choice a combination of the best tracks from Large Pro's The LP and First Class, although the latter was slept on and generally under appreciated.
Kool Keith: I wore a straw hat with a feather to the last Source Awards. When I got to Madison Square Garden everybody was looking at me. When I got back home I seen everybody and their mother in their video wearing a fuckinג€™ straw hat with a feather in it.

Tim Dog: ג€œWhat Kool Keith gonna wear? Iג€™m gonna do that shit in my video. Iג€™m gonna wear that shit really quick. Whatג€™s Tim Dog gonna wear?ג€

Yeah I obviously hadn't really tried hard to think of other MC/Producer joints. Doomsday's definitely the GOAT (don't know I overlooked it being a DOOM stan), but there's plenty of other great albums.

Blueprint's 1988
Diamond's Stunts, Blunts, & Hip Hop
El-P's Fantastic Damage
Count Bass D's Dwight Spitz
Edan's Beauty and The Beat
Lord Finesse's The Awakening

I love both the Quasimoto albums, but I feel like they inhabit their own unique universe that's separate from all other music.

Any other essential ones I'm missing?

He did a "verse" on a remix with the lead singer of Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes:

No, it's not. it's actually decent ... and content-wise, it's basically a return to form. You're not good at listening to RZA bro.

RZA and Meyhem have never worked together. That's a freestyle over a A RZA beat.

I live on the west coast. I don't know anything about east coast rappers or east coast rappers/producers.
