I've read a great deal of debate about overrated hip hop albums. What are ten that you feel are truly essential?

Hip op is overrated, full stop. It is the worst thing ever to happen to musics. If only Martyn Luthor King had not been shot, his peoples might have develop more dignity and continue to derive pleasant melodics uplift soul which is absent from coloured musics with the exceptions of Earth, Wonder and Commodores.

nas - illmatic
wu tang clan - 36 chambers...
outkast - stankonia
public enemy - it takes a nation of millions...
the streets - original pirate material (for all intents and purposes)
a tribe called quest - the low end theory
nwa - straight outta compton
iam - l'ecole du micro d'argent
madvillain - madvillainy
fugees - the score

haha...i don't pretend to

anyone who follows my posts here can probably guess i'm more 'indie' oriented than anything else. but yeah, those are the best 10 rap records in MY collection, which is all i'm really in a position to comment on.

Quelle surprise that the hip hop parody thread gets taken most seriously.

i figured it was a parody, but then realised i was interested in what people might come up with, irrespective of whether the whole thing's been done ad nauseum
