I searched gc and I couldn't find a thread exactly like this, but sorry if there is one already. What are your absolute favorite rap albums of all time? Albums that you can play over and over again and listen to in their entirety. My favorite album ever is probably a tie between midnight marauders, by a tribe called quest, and illmatic, by nas. Some of my other favorites are Moment of Truth by Gang Starr I wish my brother george was here by Del that funkee homosapien The chronic by Dr Dre (first one) Black on both sides by mos def 3 foot high and rising by De la soul The Scope of Things by move.meant And ready to die by biggie.
