Little Known Certified Classic Albums

good thread

I wouldn't say little known but

Doesn't get enough recognition on how classic it is. I always considered it the last great pure Hip Hop album before Gangsta Rap took over with the Chronic.

 

[Gallo]

Up. I need more for my rotation.

Ray Luv - Forever Hustlin

Don't see this mentioned enough.

 

[LJLYDK!]

Never seem to hear this mentioned much. It's top 10 albums for me though maybe even top 5.

Every track is absolute heat. Warren G nails it on production coming with that prime G funk sound throughout the entire album.
Nancy Fletcher kills it on the hooks in her features
Other than 3 short skits there's no filler, it's the perfect album from start to finish. no need to skip a single track.

Highly recommend this album if you like that classic smooth G funk sound then definitely check this out & you won't be
disappointed

I got into Dela and those Jazz Liberators guys years ago, dope beats if you’re into that jazzy boom bap sound. You should peep Nujabes if you haven’t already.

I specifically recommend Departure and Impression; it's crazy how few people talk about his music. Dude was crazy talented; gone way too soon.

Ras Kass "Soul on Ice"(1996)

Suga Free "Street Gospel" Produced entirely by DJ Quik(1997)

Maxwell "Embrya" (1998)(Maxwells and David Hod's best work)

D'Angelo and Soulquarians live in Stockholm Sweden (Voodoo Tour 2000)

Wah Wah Watson "Elementary" (1976) (one of the funkiest guitarist of all time)

Marcus Miller (All of his albums this century )

Jimmy Dludlu (South African Jazz guitarist; plays guitar as good George Benson)

Bernard Wright "Nard" 1981 (16 year old kid laying down some of the best funk albums of all time; genius on the keys)

I could drop more but I'm lazy.
Peace from South Africa
