Can't say that's DAMN worthy. Not surprised at all.

Don't worry, I'm not gonna call you a new jack because that term is gayer than

or AYO.

But someone else will.

in reality i probably like atliens, stakes is high, or illdelph better.

but i've had them for three or four years, where as i've had dr. octagon for six years.

errrr.....this is easily the hardest one yet for me

hmmm....these albums are all so much different from each other, yet still classic in their own right

- guess i'll go w/ stakes

I have most of these albums but I picked DOC Oct because it was just so different than anything that came out at that time.

if you left off disc 2 ... it might be better than 1 of those albums

uh this was pretty tough, Ironman always felt like a group album, more so than Cuban Linx .. and Ghost wasn't top dogg on a few of the tracks, its still an incredible album but I'm not as big of fan as some of you

Reasonable Doubt is a raw JayZ before commercialism derailed his album quality, and it featuring the best duet Biggie ever did, the album gets a little weak at the end, but the first 8 tracks are all amazing

Stakes and ATLiens were just a little behind those too

Reasonable Doubt

yeah, the vote was for favorite not best, and reasonable doubt gets the most rotation still out of all these (though i just listened to ironman and atliens yesterday)

jigga over ghostface by a pinch

Grand Central · Post by **Grand Central** » Fri Sep 17, 2004 12:38 pm

Damn, this was tough.
Between Ghostface, Mobb, Jay Z, and De La. I went with Stakes Is High, such a great album, from front to back, no filler.

2Pac - All Eyez On Me

I can't believe I was the only one who voted for it, but OK.

gottdamn you for making me pick, but i had to go with that 'kast.
it was actually a tie between them and reasonable doubt

Gotta go with Hell on earth. IT had some of the most grimey beats.

I'm Still Number Thun · Sun Sep 19, 2004 8:17 pm

Yeah, I have no idea why Reasonable Doubt has so many votes when every record on the list with the sole exception of 2Pac's is better, and by a long shot.

i could understand if that's your choice, i'm just glad more people with your taste don't post here.

i voted for outkast.

The Frankest · Post by **The Frankest** » Mon Sep 20, 2004 8:13 am

Well, taste and taste, I wouldn't really say this pick represents mine all that well, but at the time it did. And more than anything it's a very good album. You're right, though, Me Against The World and Makaveli were both better than All Eyez On Me, and I'd go as far as to say that goes for R U Still Down as well. But again, it's a great album and I have had much enjoyment out of it, so as a nod to my then self I am comfortable making this pick despite the deserving alternatives.

Gotta agree with that.

The Rose · Post by **The Rose** » Mon Sep 20, 2004 7:03 pm

I had to go w/ ATLiens since it's quite possibly my favorite rap album ever...surprised Makaveli (which I love) and Soul On Ice (which I hate but almost everyone else loves) weren't on here...I personally would also give some love to the very underrated '96 Geto Boys album The Resurrection...

Stay strong,
The Rose

I picked reasonable doubt with stakes is high and muddy battlin for second

dont know what it is about the jay z album, guess it was during that time

but brooklyns finest made it a wrap, I can see why others would think the others on the list were better, but as a personal fav gotta give it to reasonable doubt, just a shame that everything jay z made from there was downhill

im drunk
