OB4CL is my favorite hip hop album of all time. Both it and Illmatic are better than Ready To Die.
Which Album was better, Illmatic, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx or Ready to die

Biggie wins this shyt obviously, but this is kinda a "tallest midget" thing. RTD is about a 3... the other joints are 1's.

Ready to Die spoke to me, i could relate to every song, had all elements of mcing (storytelling, breath control, lyrics, etc) plus the best flow of all times.
Illmatic didnt have the storytelling, OB4CL didnt have the lyrics, but there still top 5 of all times to me.

OB4CL. Best piece of hip-hop we've been blessed with.

Ob4cl is the best hip hop album of all time and I've been saying that since forever. I hear something new every time I listen to it, and there wasn't any rap genius to help you decode that shyt back then. You had to listen over and over and know your alphabets and math.
The only argument for illmatic and rtd is that they were pretty much held down by one rapper front to back. But even that is not enough to beat ob4cl imo.

what about the infamous? no rappity rap songs, equal in production to ob4cl, no rnb joints, dope guest features, and had some dope stories/concepts.

My rotation of albums in 95...great year in hip hop.
totally overlooked G Rap, my bad breh but you are right.... that's a classic album too. Dr. Butcher, Buckwild, T-Ray, Remi all did their thing on the boards for that record.

Pretty much. It's the most cohesive and consistent album I've ever heard. I can't think of anything wrong with it.
