First album you learned front to back

[DaPresident]

First? LOL I'm 30...yall goin laugh but

Shaq- Shaq Fu
Kriss Kross- Totally Crossed Out

but real for REAL rap which I got into about 93-94 (bout 9-10 years old) I'd say it was
Ready to Die by Notorious B.I.G...I swear I listened to that tape (yes tape) EVERY MORNING before school specifically "Everyday Struggle" (liked intro) "Gimmie The Loot" and "Unbelievable"

That was my first OWNED tape that had cuss words in it...Shortly after, it was Doggystyle

I still listen to BOTH those albums to this day (and recite the words lol)

I remember listening to this on volume 2...especially on "A Gangsta's Fairytale" and "Get Off My dikk & Tell Yo' bytch to Come Here" .
