Back in the days when I was a teenager Before I had status and before I had a pager You could find the Abstract listening to hip hop My pops used to say, it reminded him of be-bop I said, well daddy don't you know that things come in cycles The way that Bobby Brown is just ampin' like Michael Its all expected, things are for the lookin If you got the money, Quest is for the bookin I heart that CD...
Illmatic-Nas Life after death- Biggie The chronic- Dr Dre Southernplayakadillacmuzik- Outkast Food & Liquor- Lupe fiasco im also a big fan of gucci mane. its kinda ironic
Life after death All Eyez on me Illmatic The Marshall Mathers LP Liquid Swords DoggyStyle Blackout Black Album The Chronic Bone Thugs e1999 Low end theory 18th Letter 36 chambers I can't just name ten... but yeah... Oh and Big L's Album he wasn't even alive to see.. R.I.P Like...there are far to many albums to be considered top ten.. nothing made past any of those in the new generation deserve a mention, the new era of music is mainstream autotune music for prepubescent high school girls... I give credit to the underground, but anything aside from that can just get its radio fame.. I'll stick to my classics and real music
There's about 50 you could put in and it would be OK. Illmatic Enter The Wu Paid In Full Me Against The World Reasonable Doubt Cypress Hill Midnight Marauders Bizarre Ride II The Sun Rises In The East Slim Shady LP Let's Get Free Ready To Die I could throw any of those and others in there at any given day. But this topic has been done to death.
