Not best, what are your top 5 favorite rap albums that you play all the time

[FreshAIG]

These are the albums I literally never stopped playing. This isn't my top 5 best because to me you have to also add impact, cultural significance, general consensus, content, etc. This is merely the top 5 albums you play/enjoy straight from an entertainment perspective

1) It's Dark and Hell is Hot
2) Illmatic
3) The Infamous
4) Dare Iz A Darkside
5) Reasonable Doubt

 

[Techniec]

My five favourites

All Eyez On Me
Doggystyle
Makaveli

[Travellin' Man]

Honestly, really just Illmatic

Royal Flush - Ghetto Millionaire

This is an oft forgotten gem... Didn't listen to it in real time, ran thru a few years ago... shyt dope and falls comfortably into the same lane as IWW, Doe or Die, RD, etc
