W list, thank god you didn't included Kendrick, Kanye, Jay-Z, 2pac, MF DOOM, Biggie or Dr. Dre, those trash rappers don't deserve to be in the top 10 in anyone's list
1. Tupac- All Eyez On Me 2. Eminem- Marshall Mathers LP 3. Kanye- My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy 4. Biggie- Ready To Die 5. N.W.A.- Straight Outta Compton 6. Nas- Illmatic 7. Jay-Z- The Blueprint 8. Dr. Dre- 2001 9. Kendrick Lamar- good kid m.A.A.d city 10. Snoop Dogg- Doggystyle
No particular order but here are 10 of my favorite hip hop albums 1. Madvillainy - Madvillian 2. To Pimp A Butterfly - Kendrick Lamar 3. The Eminem Show - Eminem 4. Enter The Wu-Tang - Wu-Tang Clan 5. Illmatic - Nas 6. Ready To Die - The Notorious B.I.G 7. The College Dropout - Kanye West 8. Straight Outta Compton - N.W.A 9. Get Rich Or Die Tryin - 50 Cent 10. Doggystyle - Snoop Dogg
Illmatic is perfect. Every single track is an icon. It encapsulates a moment in time from which an entire genre developed. You can pretty much remove everything that came before it, and hip hop would still have the necessary means to develop into what it is today.
01.) 2Pac - All Eyez on me 02.) 50 Cent - Get rich or die tryin 03.) Jay-Z - Blueprint 04.) Mobb Deep - The Infamous 05.) Eminem - Slim Shady LP 06.) Notorious BIG - Ready to Die 07.) Ludacris - Word of Mouf 08.) The Game - The Documentary 09.) Travis Scott - Astroworld 10.). Kendrick Lamar - Good Kidd Madd City
@@GangstaLion yes Travis Scott, i listen to Rap From the 80s To the 20s, and i enjoy Listening His Music, so Whats the Problem. (Im From Germany so i dont Unserstand all the Lyrics Like you in the USA, so a Rapsong has to sound good for me, cause its difficult for me Unserstanding all the Lyrics and meanings.)
Love these lists. I’m shocked at Anthony’s #1. I like 2001 but I do feel like they are very skippable tracks on the 2nd part of that album. But when it hits it’s timeless music
The first half of 2001 is a masterpiece,the second part sucks,the album should've ended with The Next Episode and had Let's Get High as a bonus,the rest of the album fucking sucks
@@underkanal3656 I was just trying to be nice to Dre but yeah it really is a fall off 😂😂 i liked the Halloween sample on murder ink but the rest can go honestly

I think ive underrated rza's production in the past, liquid swords' sound is nasty. But what makes it great for me is gza's lyricism, some of the hardest verses ive ever heard
@@keenobaerry3195 I can understand why 36 chambers is on both their top 10’s, as for the most part it is the most well know and iconic wutang album , however I do agree that Liquid Swords is way more polished compared to 36 chambers
Supreme Clientele by Ghostface, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx by Raekwon, my beautiful dark twisted fantasy, the Chronic. it's a tight list from both of y'all. You guys bring more and more love for rap music. Appreciate y'all ❤️

Am the only tribe fan that thinks beats rhymes and life is their best album. Phony rappers is the perfect opening track that embodies the essence of battle rap and story telling beautifully. Phife snapped on this album and the production is second to none. Tunes like the pressure, mind power and the hop. All tribe fans need to re listen to this masterpiece!
like i may just be some white guy from a different country however i would say TPAB for the simple reason that it made me try to understand and appreciate rap music on a deeper level. growing up with families like mine completely denouncing the genre then stumbling across this masterpiece one day that made me appreciate not only the songs but also the culture and the backgrounds of these individuals was mindblowing. furthermore i dont know if anyone has or will pack this much density of concepts into one album ever.
I feel like this is a pretty good take. Alot of these all time lists are from americans. And ofc theyre opinions have atleast the same value as me a foreigner holds. But i feel like alot of these people dont understand how Kendrick made this kinda darker Hip-Hop tracks more accessable over seas. For quite some times now is kendrick rated high in Europe and africa for example. His lyrics are not just how he sho*ts people but he tells the whole story behind it completed with not only trap beats but with Blues, Jazz and Funk wich even some parents here started to listen to after the Compton music kinda got the "its devils music" stamp on after NWA.
Good list by both. My personal Top 10 rap Albums of all time.... 1. Me against the world- 2pac 2. Life After Death- Biggie 3. The Chronic- Dr Dre 4. It was Written- Nas 5. The Infamous- Mobb Deep 6. The Diary- Scarface 7. The Blueprint- Jay Z 8. Enter the Wu Tang- Wu Tang 9. Dare Iz a Darkside- Redman 10. On top of the world - 8ball & MJG A few more I love though that can easily be up there are, Illmatic, Ready to Die, All Eyez on Me, It's Dark and Hell Is Hot, Aquemini, Doe or Die(AZ), Creepin on ah Come Up(Bone), The Eminem Show, Lost(8ball), Carter 3, Reasonable doubt, Get rich or die tryin and Adrenaline Rush by Twista!

TPAB - kendrick Edit: had to put 2 eminem and 2 kendrick albums, they r the greatest artists of all time
Haven’t seen this album brought up in the comments at all but Atrocity Exhibition is definitely in my top ten. Such an Unconventional and haunting album with chaotic and Experimental Production and excellent writing that gives off one of the most Harrowing pieces of media I’ve ever consumed. It’s seriously a terrifying masterpiece.
Its brilliant but id put it like top 30 maybe top 20. There has been better experimental production but its a great gateway album for younger hiphop fans to alt/experimental hiphop.
10. Doggystyle 9. The carter 3/ miss education of lauryn hill 8. it’s dark and hell is hot 7. Mmlp 6.the blueprint 5. To pimp a butterfly 4. Ready to die 3. 7 day theory 2. Illmatic 1. The chronic
NFR COMING WITH ANOTHER GREAT LIST. W for Lu putting 2 Kendrick albums I respect it. One thing that stood out to me was Lu saying Kendrick may not be a top 10 rapper because "DAMN. and MMATBS aren't on the same level" but I feel like thats not 100% fair. Rappers like Nas have one top 10 album and he hasn't had the batting average Kendrick has had. Kdot has 0 albums that aren't at least amazing, even according to your guys' reviews. People tend to be unfairly critical of him because he likely will never touch those back to back albums. Also, when we look at his 2 recent albums, his rapping is still incredibly strong and the strong suit of those albums - he clearly has longevity. So he's had 2 of the highest highs of any rapper, 3 amazing albums to back them up, and unreal concepts and unique songs that no one else had tapped into. Overall I think its only fair to put him top 10 and I genuinely think you can make a good argument for top 5. Edit: Btw im not saying hes better than Nas but just a point to make about Kendrick's dominance and one of his skills that are unmatched - album/song writing.
10. Get rich or die tryin 9. Burden of proof 8. Graduation 7. Everything's for sale 6. GKMC 5. Life after death 4. Illmatic 3. MMLP 2. TPAP 1. Ready to die Honorable mentions: The Eminem show It was written Daytona 2001 Me against the world The infamous The college dropout Damn

My Top 10 (in no order) 1. Ready to Die 2. All Eyes on Me 3. It Was Written 4. Get Rich or Die Trying 5. College Dropout 6. The Black Album 7. MBDTF 8. Cole World Sideline Story 9. Good Kid Mad City 10. Graduation
@Vernon Johnson listen to some MF DOOM, Andre 3k, Lupe fiasco, Black Thought and J Cole. All better lyricists by a margin and more versatile. Rakim is one dimensional as fuck. He’s flow is choppy, he’s repetitive, there’s overused patterns if you listen to the beat choices on paid in full unlike a graduation or gkmc
1. 2001 by Dre: This album got me into rap. 2. Graduation by Kanye: Controversial, but my most played album. 3. Illmatic by Nas: Amazing album. 4. Tpab by Kendrick: Legendary album. 5. Ready to die by biggie: This album has so many bangers. 6: Get rich or die tryin by 50 cent: So many iconic songs. 7: Me against the world by Pac: Tupac is my goat and this is his best album. 8. Marshall Mathers LP: This is Eminem’s best album. 9. MBDTF by Kanye: One of his most influential albums. 10: The infamous by Mobb Deep: Shook ones pt 2 might be my favorite song of all time. HM: Aquemini by OutKast: legendary album but I was never a big OutKast fan (please don’t get mad I know they were great I just didn’t listen to them very much)
1) MBDTF - Ye 2) The Eminem Show - Eminem 3) It's Dark and Hell Is Hot - DMX 4) All Eyez On Me - Tupac 5) Illmatic - Nas 6) Life After Death - Biggie 7) The Blueprint - Hov 8) Wu-Tang Forever - Duh 9) The Chronic 2001 - Dre 10) Thug Mentality 1999 - Krayzie Bone *Two of My favorites: CrazyNDaLazDayz - Tear Da Club Up Thugs Legacy Of Blood - Jedi Mind Tricks
Thank you NFR for getting us hip/hop heads thinking. 1. Jay-Z - Reasonable Doubt 2. Kanye West - MBDTF 3. 50 Cent - Get Rich or Die Tryin' 4. Eminem - The Eminem Show 5. Common - Be 6. Outkast - Aquemini 7. Kendrick Lamar - good kid m.A.A.d City 8. DMX - Its Dark And Hell Is Hot 9. Nas - Illmatic 10. Clipse - Hell Hath No Fury
@Vernon Johnson paid in full I don’t think people have heard tbh. I never see it on any lists it’s crazy. 1987 bro like whaaat. Rakim coming in with those flows. Crazy
My top 10: 1) Aquemini by Outkast 2) Mm food by MF DOOM 3) Black on both sides by Mos def 4) Be by Common 5) Good kid maad city by Kendrick lamar 6) The cool by Lupe fiasco 7) Illmatic by Nas 8) College dropout by Kanye west 9) Miseducation of Lauryn hill by Lauryn hill 10) The sun's tirade by Isaiah rashad
Such a tough list to make so props for taking it on. Some great picks from 5-10 but I think it got less objective in the top 5. But including madvillianly and aquemini was 👌🔥
My Top 10 Greatest Rap Albums Of All Time: 1. Ready To Die - The Notorious B.I.G. 2. Illmatic - Nas 3. To Pimp A Butterfly - Kendrick Lamar 4. The Chronic - Dr. Dre 5. The Marshall Mathers LP - Eminem 6. good kid m.A.A.d city - Kendrick Lamar 7. ATLiens - Outkast 8. The College Dropout - Kanye West 9.The Blueprint - JAY-Z 10. Rodeo - Travis Scott
My top 10 favorite (not best) rap albums: 1. The Eminem Show 2. DAMN. 3. good kid, m.A.A.d city 4. The Marshall Mathers LP 5. To Pimp a Butterfly 6. KOD 7. I Decided 8. 2001 9. Get Rich or Die Tryin' 10. Take Care To me, there is a subtle difference between best and favorite. My two main biases for why an album could be my personal favorite but not one of the best is replayability and nostalgia. Certain albums take me back to a favorite memory or period of my life.
@@jonas6780 no it doesn’t lmao you can like a certain price of music more than another yet still understand that another price of music is better than the one you specifically enjoy. IMO I enjoy stillmatic more than illmatic because of the sound/beats and one of the greatest comeback albums of all time. However I can objectively say illmatic is better in almost all categories.
@@jonas6780 it absolutely does not. My favourite rap album is Under Pressure by Logic because of the timing and a lot of personal reasons other people wouldn't understand. Do I think it's the best rap album of all time? Absolutely fucking not looool
To pimp a butterfly without a doubt. Track by track it is the most expansive hip hop album of time. So many genres, lyrically and topically it is such a raw yet beautiful experience. If I had to present humanity's greatest contribution to the world to some martians it would be TPAB.
My PERSONAL FAVORITES 1: Low End Theory - A Tribe Called Quest 2: Illmatic - Nas 3: Madvillainy - Madlib and MF DOOM 4: To Pimp a Butterfly - Kendrick Lamar 5: We Got It From Here... Thank You 4 Your Service - A Tribe Called Quest 6: Like Water for Chocolate - Common 7: Midnight Marauders - A Tribe Called Quest 8: Resurrection - Common 9: TA13OO - Denzel Curry 10: Rodeo - Travis Scott Honorable Mentions: Liquid Swords, Beats Rhymes and Life, King's Disease II and III, good kid, m.A.A.d city, Ready to Die, The Eminem Show, ATLiens, Pray for Paris, 4eva is a Mighty Long Time, The College Dropout

Atm my top 10 rap albums whould probably be 1. To Pimp A Butterfly 2. The Collage Dropout 3. The Low End Theory 4. Enter The Wu-tang 36 chambers 5. MBDTF 6. Good Kid Maad City 7. Illmatic 8. We got it from here thank you 4 your service 9. Madvillany 10. It takes a nation of millions to hold us back No bs, just what i enjoy and dont want to make something up to seem different
Hell yes for the ATCQ we got it from here pick, I personally think its better than the low end theory but I'm just happy to see it Brought up, it's truly incredible and great send off to phife dawg
thoughts? 10. Marshall Mathers LP - never really fell on eminem like that, but there was something special about this tape 9. vaudeville villain - i personally think this is madvillainys only competitive for top album in DOOMS discography 8. All Eyez on Me- pacs best record easily, too many hits to count 7. The Infamous - Prodigy is one of the purest rapping voices i ever heard, amazing beats too 6. 36 chambers - fell in love with songs like CREAM, 7th chamber and protect ya neck from a young age, best group album of all time 5. pinata - MAYBE too high but i believe freddie is the best product of the 2010s besides kendrick, unmatchable rapping ability with impeccable production 4. Madvillainy- this album was the reason i fell in love with music production, one of the most creative and hard to replicate albumss ever 3. illmatic - nasty mf nas. 2. reasonable doubt- jay z, not a single miss, like big i think jay z’s prime was his early years 1. to pimp a butterfly - too many words to explain, but probably pretty self explanatory
DISCLAIMER: this is only off albums ive listened to, so albums like ready to die, the chronic n a lot of others on here ive never fully listened to, im 15 n havent heard a ton of music so any recommendations would be appreciated!

this has got to be one of the worst top 10 oat ever do you only listen to 5 artist??? a lot of this is way to recently biased, kendrick is good but having “damn” on a top 10 rap albums list is fucking outrageous, hop off j coles meat hes a good rapper but having him even on the list is wild, most of fhd is skips, though there are bangers, as an album as a whole it’s not even top 10 of the 2010’s decade, the only 3 that make somewhat sense are MBDTF, TPAB, and maybe the blueprint.
also jesus fuck you don’t have any variety, all these artist have the same type style, branch out and your list will change and you will be embarrassed by this list. illmatic doesn’t have to be your favorite but it has to be a top 10 rap album, it literally created half the shit u listen too
@@finnleg11259 You just hating. J. Cole got incredible albums and DAMN is a masterpiece. 2014 FHD is clearly skipless not a single bad song. Plus, you’re saying GKMC and GRODT don’t make sense on the list and a “Maybe” for The Blueprint is outrageous. Get your ass to discovering good music and stop hating!!

I will think I am more of an Ant guy than a Luca guy in one video and the they release something else and Luca takes the top spot again and the cycle continues. Fantastic platform. Every video is excellent. Keep it up
The best part about the video is when luca is talking about illmatic, he mentions rhymeschemes from ny state of mind (either willingly or accidentally) for example saying that he set the plateau or that he feels like a trapped rodent, i almost cried and i dont even know why

Here's the list. Disclaimer: After #3, the order doesn't matter anymore. 1. Supreme Clientele - Ghost's magnum opus. Flawless front to back. 2. Muddy Waters - Another flawless record to me excluding skits. 3. Hell On Earth - Havoc's production + P's rapping on this record = flawless 4. Monkey Barz - Somewhat out of place amongst these legendary albums but I like this record a lot. 5. Art of War --> Yes, E. 1999 Eternal is Bone's most influential album but for it's length, Art of War is a press and play record for me. 6. The Blueprint - Jay's best album IMO. From a rapping and production standpoint, it's flawless 7. Get Rich or Die Tryin' - It's 50 8. All Eyez on Me - Pac did the impossible. A double disc album with hits left and right. Although, What'z Ya Phone # is the only miss to me on this monumental album Bonus: the 7 Day Theory record might overtake this record at some point. 9. Operation: DOOMsday - It's a classic debut from a legendary and influential artist that's no longer with us sadly. 10. Marshall Mathers LP --> the content hasn't aged well. That's a given but the album is damn near flawless if certain songs and skits weren't present.
@@brenterickson2771 Monkey Barz wasn't on there when I started. Jesus Price was. Between Monkey Barz and JPS. You can't go wrong. It's preference after all. I'll jump to Eminem.

Illmatic is perfect. Every single track is an icon. It encapsulates a moment in time from which an entire genre developed. You can pretty much remove everything that came before it, and hip hop would still have the necessary means to develop into what it is today.
You already know😎
Excellent point
I don't think Illmatic would have been made without Artists like Gang Starr though

Love these lists. I’m shocked at Anthony’s #1. I like 2001 but I do feel like they are very skippable tracks on the 2nd part of that album. But when it hits it’s timeless music

Liquid Swords is up there for me personally, something about how rough it sounds plays so well with the album and the content within
One of the best albums ever made
I think ive underrated rza's production in the past, liquid swords' sound is nasty. But what makes it great for me is gza's lyricism, some of the hardest verses ive ever heard
i thought it was crazy they have 36 chambers so high but not liquid swords, to me it's a more polished wutang
That’s a comfortable number one

Lu's description of illmatic is spot on. I couldn't agree more, Illmatic is the blueprint for hiphop.
Huge respect for including Midnight Marauders. That’s Tribe’s best album in my opinion, even better than The Low End Theory
Agreed
I personally prefer the production of Midnight Marauders but the performances on The Low End theory are better to me, I personally have TLET over MM.
Eletric relaxation is such a God tier track
Am the only tribe fan that thinks beats rhymes and life is their best album. Phony rappers is the perfect opening track that embodies the essence of battle rap and story telling beautifully. Phife snapped on this album and the production is second to none. Tunes like the pressure, mind power and the hop. All tribe fans need to re listen to this masterpiece!
Man that’s a tough choice for me personally
like i may just be some white guy from a different country however i would say TPAB for the simple reason that it made me try to understand and appreciate rap music on a deeper level. growing up with families like mine completely denouncing the genre then stumbling across this masterpiece one day that made me appreciate not only the songs but also the culture and the backgrounds of these individuals was mindblowing. furthermore i dont know if anyone has or will pack this much density of concepts into one album ever.
I feel like this is a pretty good take. Alot of these all time lists are from americans. And ofc theyre opinions have atleast the same value as me a foreigner holds. But i feel like alot of these people dont understand how Kendrick made this kinda darker Hip-Hop tracks more accessable over seas. For quite some times now is kendrick rated high in Europe and africa for example. His lyrics are not just how he sho*ts people but he tells the whole story behind it completed with not only trap beats but with Blues, Jazz and Funk wich even some parents here started to listen to after the Compton music kinda got the "its devils music" stamp on after NWA.
What white guy from another country you are talking about

NFR COMING WITH ANOTHER GREAT LIST. W for Lu putting 2 Kendrick albums I respect it. One thing that stood out to me was Lu saying Kendrick may not be a top 10 rapper because "DAMN. and MMATBS aren't on the same level" but I feel like thats not 100% fair. Rappers like Nas have one top 10 album and he hasn't had the batting average Kendrick has had. Kdot has 0 albums that aren't at least amazing, even according to your guys' reviews. People tend to be unfairly critical of him because he likely will never touch those back to back albums. Also, when we look at his 2 recent albums, his rapping is still incredibly strong and the strong suit of those albums - he clearly has longevity. So he's had 2 of the highest highs of any rapper, 3 amazing albums to back them up, and unreal concepts and unique songs that no one else had tapped into. Overall I think its only fair to put him top 10 and I genuinely think you can make a good argument for top 5.
Edit: Btw im not saying hes better than Nas but just a point to make about Kendrick's dominance and one of his skills that are unmatched - album/song writing.
Nas should probably also have 2 because It Was Written is an absolute masterpiece

1. 2001 by Dre: This album got me into rap.
2. Graduation by Kanye: Controversial, but my most played album.
3. Illmatic by Nas: Amazing album.
4. Tpab by Kendrick: Legendary album.
5. Ready to die by biggie: This album has so many bangers.
6: Get rich or die tryin by 50 cent: So many iconic songs.
7: Me against the world by Pac: Tupac is my goat and this is his best album.
8. Marshall Mathers LP: This is Eminem’s best album.
9. MBDTF by Kanye: One of his most influential albums.
10: The infamous by Mobb Deep: Shook ones pt 2 might be my favorite song of all time.
HM: Aquemini by OutKast: legendary album but I was never a big OutKast fan (please don’t get mad I know they were great I just didn’t listen to them very much)
Legit my top 2

Great list man.
Awesome list. I hope yall do "10 Greatest mixtapes of all time" too.
Da drought 3 is a top 3
Faces should be up there
Exmilitary too
Nostalgia ultra gotta be on there
Such a tough list to make so props for taking it on. Some great picks from 5-10 but I think it got less objective in the top 5. But including madvillianly and aquemini was 👌🔥
My Top 10 Greatest Rap Albums Of All Time:
1. Ready To Die - The Notorious B.I.G.

has travis and nas on the same list 🗿
@@Czssini Rodeo is legit

My top 10 favorite (not best) rap albums:
1. The Eminem Show
2. DAMN.
3. good kid, m.A.A.d city
4. The Marshall Mathers LP
5. To Pimp a Butterfly
6. KOD
7. I Decided
8. 2001
9. Get Rich or Die Tryin'
10. Take Care
To me, there is a subtle difference between best and favorite. My two main biases for why an album could be my personal favorite but not one of the best is replayability and nostalgia. Certain albums take me back to a favorite memory or period of my life.
favorite=best
@@jonas6780 no it doesn’t lmao you can like a certain price of music more than another yet still understand that another price of music is better than the one you specifically enjoy. IMO I enjoy stillmatic more than illmatic because of the sound/beats and one of the greatest comeback albums of all time. However I can objectively say illmatic is better in almost all categories.
@@jonas6780 it absolutely does not. My favourite rap album is Under Pressure by Logic because of the timing and a lot of personal reasons other people wouldn't understand. Do I think it's the best rap album of all time? Absolutely fucking not looool
yea the list isn’t good if illmatic isn’t at least top 3
kod is crazy ngl
To pimp a butterfly without a doubt. Track by track it is the most expansive hip hop album of time. So many genres, lyrically and topically it is such a raw yet beautiful experience. If I had to present humanity's greatest contribution to the world to some martians it would be TPAB.
TPAB is awsome but you are being pretentious.
Best hip hop album sure but HUMANITYS GREATEST CONTRIBUTION TO THE WORLD??
Phenomenal album for sure, but humanities best contribution?
I love TPAB but I think a lot of people sleep on DAMN

An underrated, slept on album in my top 10... Blu & Exile - Below The Heavens
SOMEBODY ONCE SAID THAT IM ALREADY IN HELL
thoughts?
10. Marshall Mathers LP - never really fell on eminem like that, but there was something special about this tape
9. vaudeville villain - i personally think this is madvillainys only competitive for top album in DOOMS discography
8. All Eyez on Me- pacs best record easily, too many hits to count
7. The Infamous - Prodigy is one of the purest rapping voices i ever heard, amazing beats too
6. 36 chambers - fell in love with songs like CREAM, 7th chamber and protect ya neck from a young age, best group album of all time
5. pinata - MAYBE too high but i believe freddie is the best product of the 2010s besides kendrick, unmatchable rapping ability with impeccable production
4. Madvillainy- this album was the reason i fell in love with music production, one of the most creative and hard to replicate albumss ever
3. illmatic - nasty mf nas.
2. reasonable doubt- jay z, not a single miss, like big i think jay z’s prime was his early years
1. to pimp a butterfly - too many words to explain, but probably pretty self explanatory
DISCLAIMER: this is only off albums ive listened to, so albums like ready to die, the chronic n a lot of others on here ive never fully listened to, im 15 n havent heard a ton of music so any recommendations would be appreciated!

prolly the only list in the comments i can mostly agree wit
@@Czssini me too, good list
@Vernon Johnson I disagree. Ain't even Eric B & Rakim's best album imo. Don't Sweat the Technique and Let the Rhythm Hit Em are better.
The chronic is 1000 times much better than 2001 is not even close, the impact that the chronic had is unmatched

2. MBTDF - Ye
1. 2014 forest hills Dr. - J. Cole
this is literally my weekly rotation lol
This list right here 🔥🔥🔥
this has got to be one of the worst top 10 oat ever do you only listen to 5 artist??? a lot of this is way to recently biased, kendrick is good but having “damn” on a top 10 rap albums list is fucking outrageous, hop off j coles meat hes a good rapper but having him even on the list is wild, most of fhd is skips, though there are bangers, as an album as a whole it’s not even top 10 of the 2010’s decade, the only 3 that make somewhat sense are MBDTF, TPAB, and maybe the blueprint.
also jesus fuck you don’t have any variety, all these artist have the same type style, branch out and your list will change and you will be embarrassed by this list. illmatic doesn’t have to be your favorite but it has to be a top 10 rap album, it literally created half the shit u listen too
@@finnleg11259 You just hating. J. Cole got incredible albums and DAMN is a masterpiece. 2014 FHD is clearly skipless not a single bad song. Plus, you’re saying GKMC and GRODT don’t make sense on the list and a “Maybe” for The Blueprint is outrageous. Get your ass to discovering good music and stop hating!!

I will think I am more of an Ant guy than a Luca guy in one video and the they release something else and Luca takes the top spot again and the cycle continues. Fantastic platform. Every video is excellent. Keep it up
The best part about the video is when luca is talking about illmatic, he mentions rhymeschemes from ny state of mind (either willingly or accidentally) for example saying that he set the plateau or that he feels like a trapped rodent, i almost cried and i dont even know why

I would say that College Dropout to Late Registration takes it as the best back to back hip hop albums in history. Ready to Die and Life After Death are also up there
I think its hard to say between the two, but for me personally ready to die and life after death are just way too good to not be above kanye

It’s insane how every time I open youtube cuz I’m bored I find u guys dropping a video. Thank you so much guys appreciate ur work🙏🏻
Here's the list.
Disclaimer: After #3, the order doesn't matter anymore.
1. Supreme Clientele - Ghost's magnum opus. Flawless front to back.
2. Muddy Waters - Another flawless record to me excluding skits.
3. Hell On Earth - Havoc's production + P's rapping on this record = flawless
4. Monkey Barz - Somewhat out of place amongst these legendary albums but I like this record a lot.
5. Art of War --> Yes, E. 1999 Eternal is Bone's most influential album but for it's length, Art of War is a press and play record for me.
6. The Blueprint - Jay's best album IMO.
From a rapping and production standpoint, it's flawless
7. Get Rich or Die Tryin' - It's 50
8. All Eyez on Me - Pac did the impossible.
A double disc album with hits left and right.
Although, What'z Ya Phone # is the only miss to me on this monumental album
Bonus: the 7 Day Theory record might overtake this record at some point.
9. Operation: DOOMsday - It's a classic debut from a legendary and influential artist that's no longer with us sadly.
10. Marshall Mathers LP --> the content hasn't aged well. That's a given but the album is damn near flawless if certain songs and skits weren't present.
Love the Sean P inclusion! Jesus Price Supastar is right there with it
@@brenterickson2771 Monkey Barz wasn't on there when I started. Jesus Price was.
Between Monkey Barz and JPS.
You can't go wrong.
It's preference after all.
I'll jump to Eminem.
For me, the most enjoyable project Em's ever released --> the Slim Shady EP but it doesn't make the list.
It's an EP, not an album.
If we're going off enjoyment and albums only, the most enjoyable album Em's ever released --> Relapse
