could you tell me your choice? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm, probably ill communication by beastie boys even better their compilation of greatest hits (double cd)-beastie boys - anthology, the sounds of science |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
N.W.A. - Straight Outta Compton! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Anything <---by him. |

Sorry but too hard to just choose one, well maybe Masta Ace inc.'s slaughta house because this album has the most complicated and diverse beats and the lyrics are sublime and intelligent, very much anti-gunclapping talk and I like that but anyway here's my list :P : old school: Big Daddy Kane - Long live the kane EpMd - Strictly Business EpMd - business as usual Eric B & Rakim - Paid in Full Run DMC - Raising Hell new school: Masta Ace Inc. - Slaughtahouse Pete Rock & CL Smooth - Mecca and the soulbrother Mobb Deep - The Infamous Wu Tang Clan - Enter the Wu Tang Killarmy - Silent Weapons for quiet wars Black Moon- Enta da stage Talib Kweli & Hitek - Reflection Eternal |

What about ILLMATIC by NAS !? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
X-tomatic, I'm sure it was Enter the 36 Chambers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the full title is: Enter the wu-tang (36 chambers) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and monoid, yeah I was also thinking of putting that illmatic album in the list but it was getting a bit too xtra large so I had to leave it out. No question about his lyrical skills though, and of course the beats on that album couldn't go wrong when u have masters like dj premier large professor and pete rock on the board. Might I add 2 more new school albums: I almost forgot Gangstarr! Gangstarr - step in the arena Gangstarr - moment of truth |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe, I also wanted to put in their - It takes a nation of millions to hold us back - for obvious reasons, so hey what the hell add to my list: public enemy - it takes a nation of millions to hold us back NAS - Illmatic |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

Dr Dre - Chronic (original).. ah that was the best time for rap , back with snoop dogg and all those rappers DAMN! |
||||||||

Its a hard question thats like asking me of my favourite electronic album....hmmm I think I like..no let me see I think I never enjoyed album like I enjoyed GZAs - Liquid Swords back then when it was released 95, I think hip hop peeked from 92-96. But I dunno theres too many to mention but Liquid is easily one of my favourites, ah fuck it its the best hip hop album ever. ;) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no its not dont know these type of question drive me crazy so I will never answer or even try to analyze this kind again. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
hip hop is a genre I have a personal grudge against, but the closest thing I could recommend to it would be massive attack's "mezzanine" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
blazing arrow by blackalicious. Probably THE most positive rap album out there. Amazing production too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like jurassic five |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

best all-around hip-hop album? that's easy: outkast aquemini. that album has it all. every 'kast album is a classic but so far this is their best work. pick it up even if you HATE hip-hop. that's how mindblowing it is. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
JURASSIC 5 .....damnit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
pauls boutique 36 chambers the chronic straight outta compton public enemy's first album |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hell yeah Outkast is for everyone and their moms. ATLiens and Aquemini are also the best albums ever. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I am yet to hear a more entertaining hiphop album than Digital Underground - Sex Packets mostly because I am a huge Parliament Funkadelic fanatic..and that album has a chocker full of legitimate..fully blessed by George Clinton.. Parliament samples |
||||||||

i thought titsworth would've said mos def-black on both sides... my choice would have to be mc chris-life's a bitch and i'm her pimp |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
i've been listening to el-p today, it's pretty good. |

emerson, lake & palmer? |

there can't be a truth of a best hiphop album cuz it's a case of perception being reality... i do agree with.. beastie boys - prolly the anthology cuz there are good songs on lots of the albums public enemy - it takes a nation of millions... outkast - there last 3 albums have been magnificent wu tang - 36 chambers ...all being pretty good. my personal faves are... those above ^^^ cannibal ox - the cold vein dr octagon - octagonecologyst digable planets - reachin' so called artists - paint by number songs el-p - fantastic damage fugees - the score cypress hill - self titled i'd have to say theres way too much politics in hiphop (as theres is in most music), i dont appriciate all that bling bling shit but in the end it's the music that counts, n if someone makes good sounds that would have to overrule any silly image they have when considering spending my money on their lp. |

i find this very remarkable.. i don't like hip-hop myself at all, and honestly i never would expect people who like IDM or other electronic music to also like hip-hop.. is there any link or similarity between those types of music? (apart from envane's first track..) i'm not saying it's bad music or something.. i just don't like it.. and it surprised me that so many here do like it :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
outkast - aquemini has always been my favorite since I first heard it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
geez is there similarity? you have a lot to learn about how the two wouldn't exist without each other. i don't know where to begin telling you, nor do i have the time right now if i did know... |

snoop doggy dog - doggystyle 2pac - all eyez on me right now: jurassic 5 - power in numbers |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
MY man Titsworth IS ALWAYS SO ON POINT!!! Its just ridiculous!!! ;) "is there any link or similarity between those types of music? (apart from envane's first track..)" WHOA!!!! Geez I dont know either where to start but let me tell hip hop is IDM (I dont now what intelligent dance music is tho ;) Hip hop is electronic music. |

good night. |

|
|
is cloudead considered hip hop ? If so, their self-titled album is the best i know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
My favorite right now is N.E.R.D-In Search of That album is bad ass |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
both clouddead and anti-pop consortium teeter on IDM borders... i'm sure there are others too but Def Jux and Anticon is where the new hiphop is coming from ithink. |
||||||||
|
|

|
cex comes to mind |

for those that dismiss: i don't think whole genre's can be dismissed, there are so many blurred lines now and theres SO much music out there, it's impossible to not experience n hear as much as possible, the most common way people get into music is by hearing something that is similar to what they already like so it's easily acceptable, a metal song might be techno influenced, or a dance group might inspired by george clinton, the lines blur... and on genre's, i'm not sure whether they stop musical growth or aid it? theres too many good sounds to stick to just one... it's about experimenting n being open minded. aren't the words IDM and experimental linked very closely anyway? |

atmosphere, lucy ford? i'd name more, but tits would give me shit since most are white |

just thought i'd bring up a quote of mine: "and about tastes, thats just how it is: people have different tastes, and no one listens to "the right" music. there's no such thing. different people like different stuff and thats just how it is. you can't label some one wrong for liking something you don't. " i like atmosphere too, i've been digging god loves ugly lately, and my friend gave me some dialated peoples. pretty nifty. |
