[28 Gramz]

Big Pun is the real answer to this thread btw.

Kurupt...

if we talking Solo Classic Albums

Streetz Iz A Mutha a Classic Breh, fukk all that

 

[Paper Boi]

lupe


don't neg me

 

[Black Ball]

Em/Dmx have classics IMO. I would say Busta but I feel like ELE is borderline.

Jada probably.

When Disaster Strikes is Busta's best album. It's close to me.

 

[Paper Boi]

i agree with busta and jadakiss mentions too.

DMX got classicS though, that's crazy talk.

 

[Black Ball]

Definetely Kurupt.
Back in the death row days he was one of the greatest rappers I have ever heard.

Naw Streetz a classic. Kurupt delivered the goods with the help of Daz.

 

[Paper Boi]

i actually think meek mill might be worth mentioning for the modern era too.

 

[Paper Boi]

i don't understand all the kurupt mentions...


dogg food not a classic now?

 

[Black Ball]

Never got that classic talk on streetz myself

And, i agree ...theres a nice amount of dope songs on there and from the beats to featured artists hes was routinely the least notable aspect of em by far...crooked i jayo tray dee etc was running circles around him while he was spitting gibberish

He aint even need to be on the album as quiet as its kept

I understand what you trying to say, but this post is slanderous.

I Call Shots
Trylogy
the title track
Girls All Pause

Kurupt did his thing although he was a slightly diminished lyricist. He was still raw as fukk.

 

[Black Ball]

Method Man & Jada Kiss are the correct answers.

The expectations these dudes had compared to the subpar albums they delivered was a true let down.

In retrospect, Cannibus wasn't really great, breh was kind of corny although I was fell into the hype at the time.

 

[Black Ball]

it's dark and hell is hot isnt a classic. Nobody outside of ny nikkas still rocking timbs and fubu jerseys playing that

I'm a Cali nikka, breh you talking way too foolish.

You’re saying SSEP was the best and most skilled hip hop album of ‘98?

Even on some underground shyt there were better albums that year.

EDIT:

No way in hell did Eminem have the best Hip Hop album of '98.

Gangstarr Moment Of Truth
Big Pun Capital Punishment
DMX It’s Dark and Hell Is Hot. Etc etc.
