Life After Death was my #1 vote then, is still now

― a hoy hoy, Thursday, 4 June 2020 19:14 (five years ago)

genuinely too difficult to choose, comes down to life after death/wu tang forever/de la is dead/ bahloone mindstate/ boy in da corner.

probably played wu tang forever most as it spent 2 years as the only tape in my car.

― oscar bravo, Thursday, 4 June 2020 19:25 (five years ago)

I wonder if hell hath no fury would make the top 100 these days. Ridin Dirty or Supreme Clientele or Buhloone Mindstate, I think.

Didn't realize Digital Underground was rated so highly.

― JoeStork, Thursday, 4 June 2020 20:06 (five years ago)

*quietly*...kinda think it's college dropout

― voodoo chili, Thursday, 4 June 2020 20:30 (five years ago)

oh wait, no, it's supreme clientele

― voodoo chili, Thursday, 4 June 2020 20:30 (five years ago)

These days it’s probably UGK for me

― Mule, Thursday, 4 June 2020 20:40 (five years ago)

These days it’s probably UGK for me

― Mule, Thursday, 4 June 2020 20:41 (five years ago)

(Ah shit, sorry)

― Mule, Thursday, 4 June 2020 20:41 (five years ago)

Boy In Da Corner is the best album on the list but being the pedantic type I'm not voting for it because it's grime not rap. There's a world of difference.

― paolo, Friday, 5 June 2020 08:42 (five years ago)

Went for Tical. Sorely tempted to go for Can Ox because I was a bit obsessed with that album when I was about 19.

― paolo, Friday, 5 June 2020 08:43 (five years ago)

voting for Madvillainy

― NAthaniel (cajunsunday), Friday, 5 June 2020 08:58 (five years ago)

Strictly Business, but I'm already thinking I should have voted for Sex Packets. Clipse or Ghostface Killah too...

― Nabozo, Friday, 5 June 2020 09:48 (five years ago)

fyi ive done a poll about potentially doing a new one Thinking of doing a new hip hop poll, which one appeals the most

― a hoy hoy, Friday, 5 June 2020 09:50 (five years ago)

Didn't realize Digital Underground was rated so highly.

It's because that album is ridiculously good, it gets my vote.

― Tuomas, Friday, 5 June 2020 10:52 (five years ago)

Pretty Toney was always my favorite Ghost so I'm giving it the nod over Can Ox, Kanye, Wu-Tang Forever, Madvillain, Dizzee, and the Beasties (so much good shit on this list)

― Evans on Hammond (evol j), Friday, 5 June 2020 13:39 (five years ago)

moment of truth

― ciderpress, Friday, 5 June 2020 13:48 (five years ago)

I was the number one vote for Moment Of Truth back then and it still would be now.

― kitchen person, Saturday, 6 June 2020 04:24 (five years ago)

this is fucking impossible

― octobeard, Saturday, 6 June 2020 06:59 (five years ago)

oh yeah, moment of truth is a stone cold classic

― voodoo chili, Saturday, 6 June 2020 18:58 (five years ago)

Life After Death for me

― Gavin, Leeds, Saturday, 6 June 2020 19:11 (five years ago)

gonna pull the trigger for college dropout, album was incredibly important to my evolution as a music fan

― voodoo chili, Saturday, 6 June 2020 19:25 (five years ago)

voted for Endtroducing

― Dan S, Saturday, 6 June 2020 23:26 (five years ago)

Reflexively voted for Supreme Clientele and then realised it should have been Strictly Business.

― Vanishing Point (Chinaski), Monday, 8 June 2020 10:20 (five years ago)

ridin dirty in a heartbeat

― devvvine, Monday, 8 June 2020 10:52 (five years ago)

Voted Endtroducing even though there's no rap on it

― enochroot, Monday, 8 June 2020 12:58 (five years ago)

all eyez on me pretty easily

― Spottie, Tuesday, 9 June 2020 19:13 (five years ago)

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

― System, Wednesday, 10 June 2020 00:01 (five years ago)

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

― System, Thursday, 11 June 2020 00:01 (five years ago)

genuinely bummed that those three records got no votes

― ACABincalifornia (voodoo chili), Thursday, 11 June 2020 00:05 (five years ago)

I strongly considered Slick Rick for this

Pretty sure I went with EPMD
