2011 = best year for hip hop music

better than 88, better than 96

looking back gadddaym there was heat dropping like every week

Not at all..

94 to 96 were the best years for hip hop of all time.

2011 definitely wasn't bad though, i'm not complaining.

1990-2000:cool:

Couldn't we have kept this nonsense into one of the hundred threads we already have? Reporting now.

NOOOOOOOOO WAAAYYYYY DUUUDDDEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rap before 2000>Rap after 2000

I'd say the best year for rap was 1994 (biggie and Nas debut plus Wu-tang just a year before)

I will say this most of my favorite artists dropped somethin. If it was any good or not is another story. But if u rele think bout it for a while the decline of sales really damaged hip hop. Now once that big shock was absorbed and we realized as a culture sales does not equal talent, we're a lot better off.

nothing that came out last year tops Straight Outta Compton.... which doesnt even top shit from 88-1997

whatchu talkin bout

Hell I liked '09 better than '11.

To me the mid 90's were probably the best but I don't really like comparing years because it all has good stuff. But '09 was a good year for me period so I guess i liked that year

cant decide when hip hop was in its prime, but it sure as hell isnt 2011

nothing that came out last year tops Straight Outta Compton.... which doesnt even top shit from 88-1997

whatchu talkin bout

section 80 > str8 outta compton

Rap before 2000>Rap after 2000

1994.

Illmatic, Resurrection, Stress: The Extinction Agenda, The Sun Rises In The East, The Main Ingredient, Word...Life, Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik , Ready to Die

And lots more. No contest.

No year is best for hip hop.

So many predictable, cliche comments.

So many of you are stuck in the past and are being narrow minded.

96? lol

The 1920s had the best rap. Anything after was weak
