[Saysumthinfunnymike]

No pac in the top 100? Yeah this is a garbage list, who made it cacs?

 

[JA_Carter]

From the top 100

10. Lauryn Hill, 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill'
15. Public Enemy, 'It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back'
17. Kanye West, 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy'
19. Kendrick Lamar, 'To Pimp a Butterfly'
22. The Notorious B.I.G., 'Ready to Die'
27. Wu-Tang Clan, 'Enter the Wu-Tang(36 Chambers)'
28. Dr. Dre, 'The Chronic'
43. A Tribe Called Quest, 'The Low End Theory'
44. Nas, 'Illmatic'
49. OutKast, 'Aquemini'
50. Jay-Z, 'The Blueprint'
61. Eric B. & Rakim, 'Paid In Full'
64. OutKast, 'Stankonia'
67. Jay-Z, 'Reasonable Doubt'
70. N.W.A, 'Straight Outta Compton'
74. Kanye West, 'The College Dropout'
93. Missy “Misdemeanor” Elliott, 'Supa Dupa Fly'
95. Drake, 'Take Care'

Honestly, ignoring Lauryn at number one (it's like 70% R&B) and that list is pretty good. Just lacks Pac but crackers never liked him cause he's too real for them anyway

 

[19-]

looking through the list now #31 for Kind of Blue is way too low.

 

[zayk35]

The Lauryn Hill album is massively overrated

 

[Ol’Otis]

Me Against The World should be top 50

black publications need to make their own list

 

[Ohene]

Miseducation is the most overrated album in music history

it is good though

easily

 

[Dynamite James]

They re did this list to slight Michael Jackson after the failed smear campaign last year . They knew they couldn’t Just leave him off the list Without uproar from fans so they did some slick shyt

 

[Dynamite James]

How is thriller not top 3?

The media is trying (failing) to erase MJ.

 

[Low End Derrick]

Obviously a mostly white generated list, MBDTF isn't even in Kanye's Top 2 and is arguably not Top 3...

To Pimp A Butterfly is an outstanding work of art though...

Stankonia doesn't belong ahead of ATLiens, and Take Care is one of Drake's worst projects...

Missy is cool but never made legebdary work, they were itching to throw some women in there...

I haven't gone thru all 500 yet, someone let me know if Solange's "A Seat At The Table" made it, absolutely classic and beautiful work of art. I seriously doubt there have been 500 greater albums than that, I've been alive for 31 years and I'm a fairly comprehensive music head and I feel like it would be tough to get to 200...

That's exactly what I thought as well.

I don't know about the Solonge album, but seeing as her sister has at least 2 spots of the top 500, I wouldn't bet against her being there.

Lauryn miseducation is NOT overrated.

shyt was fukking incredible. Gtfo

 

[Cadillac]

RS doing to much with this

Yea Me Against the World, All Eyez on Me or Makaveli should have both been on there.

Another big omission is Amerikkkas Most Wanted and Doggystyle. You can’t tell the history of rap without PAC, Cube and Snoop

I was about to say how in the hell is Doggystyle not top 50

that shyt is probably the greatest Debut album ever in Hip hop and arguable as greatest album altogether but its not up there

ahh well nothing new but another one of these CAC white publications do what they usually do

 

[19-]

rolling stone is not a hip-hop based publication so im not surprised by the lack of classic hip-hop albums in the top 50.

i think the absence of jazz, funk and soul (other than marvin gaye) is worse. TPAB being higher than any actual jazz album is inexcusable

 

[Da King]

Typical cac list
