Is there any other genre that has an album that stands so tall above the rest and is undeniably and unarguably the best?

Instrumental hip-hop
loveless obviously
...
Endtroducing.....
loveless for everything
Scientist is the only Dub artist that matters
That's plunderphonics my g
King Tubby, Augustus Pablo, Jackie Mittoo, Scratch...
All shit
jazz rap.
What made Scientist so special were all his 'outsider' themes. Other dub artists of his era were too traditional.
...
Shit taste
You thinking Scientist is the only dub artist that matters totally has nothing to do with the covers
Nujabes is overrated.
Krush is trip-hop/downtempo
you cheeky kunt
;)
You're*
seriously? you don't think anyone can even make an argument that donuts is better?
Making a horror themed dub album is genius in itself. All the other guys you've mentioned were deeply rooted in continuing the Rastafarian musical tradition while Scientist approached the genre from a more creative perspective. All the Rasta stuff gets tiring after a while.
This is the single greatest dub track of all time, you can't prove me wrong:
but midnight marauders is just as good. not to mention tpab.
Departure is way better than Donuts, Donuts is a 50/50 hit or miss album with some of the individual beats being like the best ever beats, that I'll give it, but Departure is all the way through consistently fantastic, there is no debate imo.

No, that if definitely instrumental HH.
It's almost all sampled you dumb fuck
Calling Endtroducing instrumental hip-hop is doing it a disservice
THIS is the greatest dub track of all time

First of all, dj shadow himself calls it hip hop. Second of all, you must not know that much about hip hop if you think having too many samples makes it no longer hip hop. Having lots of samples is like the foundation of early hip hop. Listen to records like paul's boutique or 3 feet high and rising.
only other examples i can think of:
Justice - Cross [electro house]
MBV - Loveless [Shoegaze and Dream Pop]
almost all of instrumental hip hop is sampled you fucking retard
how do you even remember to breathe unless you have a trusted professional to tell you how to do it
your mom reminds me every night ;)

Give it a re-listen, masterfully written both lyrically and musically. 10/10
