Moshi Moshi motherfuckers.

10 albums per year. Give me some good ass 2K rap and hip hop.
(Protip: 808s and Heartbreaks isn't hip hop)

2001 - clouddead

shit thread

>2001

If you don't include the greatest hip hop album of all time you're a faggot

Slum Village - Fantastic Vol. 2 - 2000
The Alchemist - First Infantry - 2004

Oh fuck I got replies.

this

>The Blueprint 3

Really?

I included it you damn turkeys.

In all honestly 2009 was a shit year for hip hop and that was the only one I could think of that I liked.

Vaudeville Villain for 2003, best MF Doom album.

Deltron 3030 - Deltron 3030 (2000)
Quasimoto - The Unseen (2000)
Gorillaz - Gorillaz (2001) (if it counts as hip hop)
MF DOOM - Mm..Food (2004)
RA the Rugged Man - Die, Rugged Man, Die (2004)
CunninLynguists - A Piece of Strange (2006)
Dälek - Abandoned Language (2007)
DOOM - Born Like This (2009)

2009 had:
Raekwon - Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... Pt II
Mos Def-The Ecstatic
Eyedea - By the Throat
DOOM - Born Like This

Mos Def - The Ecstatic - 2009
Mos Def - The New Danger - 2004 - (If you're feeling adventurous)
Nas - Stillmatic - 2000
Non Phixion - The Future is Now - 2002 (?)
Outkast - Stankonia - 2000
Raekwon - O.B.4.C.L. 2 - 2009
Casual - Smash Rockwell - 2005
Slaughterhouse - Slaughterhouse - 2009?
Kev Brown - I Do What I Do - 2005
Clipse - Hell Hath No Hury - 2006
Sean Price - Monkey Barz - 2005

I hate 3/4 of those. But luckily this chart is unbiased so they'll all be added.

Adding these.

Out of curiosity, which of them do you not hate? Born like this?

The Mos Def album.

BLT was mediocre, Eyedea I didn't care for, and Cuban Linx was fucking awful and disappointing since I loved the first so much.

EL-P - I'll Sleep When You're Dead (2007)
Cannibal Ox - The Cold Vein (2001)
Aesop Rock - Float (2000) and Labor Days (2001)
Atmosphere - God Loves Ugly (2002)

can you removed the cLOUDDEAD album? It's really overrated and kinda shit.

shitaste

I have a feeling putting The Gorillaz is a bit of a stretch.

I agree. But I can't delete. Give me a specific album to replace it with.

2003

What the fuck did I do to you?
Please don't do this to me.
Please dear god no.

>implying it's not a good album

Gasoline - A Journey Into Abstract Hip Hop (2002)

it's a classic, have you actually heard it? name one rap album that has a single worthy hook on every track throughout the album.

Thanks Sup Forums for introducing me to the cold vein so long ago

Why abstract-hip-hop was so strong in late 90s and the whole 00s?

>have you actually heard it?
Yes it's the worst rap album I've ever heard.
But again, I'm trying to be not bias here. So on it goes.

might technically be Grime, but who gives a shit?

2003

2005

everyone

don't include this shit

Great production, huge influence, hungry delivery and great song-writing. You might not like the thing 50 Cent became but that album is an undeniable classic.

2005

2003

2008

POS - Never Better (2009
Flying Lotus - Los Angeles (2008, if Instrumental is allowed, this album's far more hip hop and less crazy/jazzy/wonky than his later stuff)
Lupe Fiasco - The Cool (2007)
The Roots - Game Theory (2006)
Nujabes - Modal Soul (2005)
Kanye West - The College Dropout (2004)
Nujabes - Metaphorical Music (2003)
Jay Z - Black Album (2003, two cuz I already picked Nujabes)
Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow (2002)
Aesop Rock - Labor Days (2001)
Eminem - The Marshall Mathers LP (2000)

nah nobody cares. grime is just british people rapping.

Come on now OP

>british "people"

>Great production
Far from it. Watered down Dre beats past his prime.
>huge influence
Not always a good thing
>great song writing
Mediocre at best.

But hey, not about how I feel about the album. It made it on. Huzzah.

Will be added.

...

ANTE UP (2000)

And to clarify instrumental Hip Hop albums ARE allowed.

Can we have a second gasoline album on here? Snap Your Neck Back (2005)

Scarface - The Fix (2002)
Three 6 Mafia - Da Unbreakables (2003)

Yes. Multiple albums from an artist are allowed.

Elzhi - Witness My Growth (2004)
Gang Starr - The Ownerz (2003)
D.I.T.C. - D.I.T.C. (2000)
Nas - God's Son (2002)
Pharoahe Monch - Desire (2007)
Jaylib - Champion Sound
Oh No - The Disrupt (2004)

You didn't add POS's Never Better for 2009? Its you chart you do you, but you added all my other suggestions so I am curious.

Just to clarify, Fantastic Damage by El-P is from 2002, not 2001.

lil wayne and 50 cent are on it so anything's allowed probably

2007

If you want the list to be serious you should probably take Viper the Rapper off

Heltah Skeltah - Da Incredible Rap Team
Slum Village - Fantastic Vol 2

People Under the Stairs - O.S.T (2002)
Andre Nickatina - Bullets, Blunts, N Ah Big Bank Roll (2004)
The Roots - The Tipping Point
De La Sol - Art Official Intelligence (2000)
De La Sol - The Grind Date (2004)


Not in love with some of the ones featured, but it is a good list of suggestions. Big plus for throwing in Shades of Blue in there.

yeah god forbid we have some diversity instead of a list full of MF Doom and Madlib albums. You don't have good taste in hip hop faggot.

Mixed up albums. My bad.

Tell that to the jackass that gave me the wrong year.

I didn't want to add Wayne.

I'm adding as suggested. Until a swapout is suggested from the same year it's not getting removed.

You can have variety without having 50 cent, stupid.

do mixtapes count?

SO I HEARD Y'ALL WANNA FLOAT

I mixed that up. My bad.
I was fine with Wayne. I didn't want to add 50 Cent.

Shades of Blue was a big favorite for that year.

you're right, diversity literally equals 50 cent

>You can have variety without having 50 cent, stupid.

Yeah but we all know that anyone that picks 50 Cent and Lil Wayne as their least favourite rappers is usually some edgy white kid that only listens to Dilla and old Kanye albums.

Yes. Mixtapes do count.

2006

Yeah you don't have to add Gorillaz if you don't feel like it, it's more indie/trip hop than hip hop admittedly. But personally they were the first artist that got me into hip hop at all, so that's why I feel like including them.

2007

Somewhat questionable but I'll add it.

Too late now. Gotta wait for a swapout.

I don't know about this one but I'll reluctantly add it.

You're missing out if you don't add O.S.T to that list. I put it first because that album fucking bangs. Unless we aren't doing the year 2000.

Use your eyes you fucking baloney I added it in the post right above yours.

>2008
Madlib - Beat Konducta Vol 5. Dil Cosby Suite

2009

also Kid Cudi - A Kid Named Cudi

Oh shit you're right, sorry about that. Thanks boss.

>Kid Cudi
Ok now you're really fucking pushing it. I already had to add 50 Cent this is just a spit in my face.

are you actually going to fix the year on Fantastic Damage or... ?

why are you even asking for recommendations if you're gonna bitch about it? nobody is gonna remember this list after your thread so just quit while you're ahead.

Wow you're an asshole.
This chart isn't for me it's for other people. If other people think it's a worthy album I'm adding it.
More importantly if people 'aren't gonna remember it' why are YOU wasting your time here?

My bad fixed it.

I saved his 90s chart. Probably others did too. So your point is invalid

no it's not you fucking pussy. do you know how many charts just like this one have already been made and shared? much better ones too.

There's no 1990s or 2000s hip hop chart on the essentials list and i don't know why they should be better than this one you fucktard

Be real with me is the MIA album worth listening to?

Now you're just being rude.
And again. You're also wasting your time in a 'pointless' thread. You're doing more "bitching" than I did now.

>is the MIA album worth listening to?
I mean it's not the best lyricism but musically it's really catchy

nah you were bitching about at least 4 submissions, so I still have another post after this one to trash you and your list.

It's mostly done anyway. Go ahead. Trash it.
The only one I really 'trashed' harshly was 50 and Cudi. Everything else I was just questioning.

I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume you submitted one of those two.

Just fill the rest of the list up with your MF Doom albums and whatever other bullshit "Stones Throw Records-core" trite you added without suggestion.

You're overestimating how many albums DOOM made in this decade.

5/100 slots isn't really that much.
But yeah I'm taking the hint that you submitted 50 and you're upset I insulted it. Ok.

>without suggestion
>he's not allowed to pick albums himself for his own chart
Stop ruining this thread already dude

Waaah, quit suggesting Lil GAYne albums! *better throw some Doom albums in there to compensate!*

Lil Wayne wasn't even the one I complained about. Hell I even enjoyed The Carter III.

It's more backwards right now, like YOU'RE the one complaining about people prefering Doom and Stones Throw to Wayne and 50 Cent like that's a bad thing.

I didn't even submit anything, I just noticed you were asking for suggestions while bitching like a retard about it the whole time.

Forgot Carter 3 to be honest.

>bitching like a retard about it the whole time.
Literally only flat-out complained about 2 entries.
Some I were questioning but still submitted them.

If you're only here to complain and didn't submit anything then you're just proving my point that you're the one wasting your time.

2008 elzhi - the preface

delusions of grandeur about his dumb chart

Again. You're doing more 'bitching' than I did at this point.

I'm a different person OP you're just funny there's a whole wiki with charts like this and you think yours is gonna be something special

2009

Not OP but matter of fact there's not a chart like this one in the wiki. How do you think these in the wiki were made in the first place. And even then why would you care, just go to another thread

>you think yours is gonna be something special
Never even said that. I said I'm making it for other people and you're wasting your time here if you're not interested. At no point did I claim this chart was 'essential' or 'the best' or 'important' or anything along those lines.

...

2007

Jedi Mind Tricks - Servants in Heaven, Kings in Hell (2006)

There might be more Wayne than MF DOOM on this chart at this point.
