Whenever you can't decide what to listen to, you can go to this tape every time. It never gets old. You never get tired of hearing it. Whether its something new or old, everybody post your go to album/tape. I'm trying to get on some new shite. I'll name a few of mine.

1. Lil Wayne - Tha Carter I
2. Lil Wayne - No Ceilings

IMO, Wayne isn't the same rapper he used to be. I haven't really enjoyed much of his stuff since No Ceilings. Carter IV and D4 sucked and there's not a word I can use that describe how incredibly shitty and terrible Sorry 4 Tha Wait was.

3. J. Cole - Friday Night Lights
4. J. Cole - Cole World: Sideline Story

Cole is easily my favorite artist right now. That mixtape was crazy and the album was even better. He's not showing any signs of slowing down either. There have been very few times where I heard a Cole song and didn't like it.

5. Kendrick Lamar - Section 80

Its obvious Kendrick is up next. Winning Lyricist of the Year over the people he did without having an album or mixtape drop this year is absolutely nuts. I can't wait until the 22nd to get "good kid, maad city." Its going to be nuts.

What do you guys have?

i actually have the dedication II in my truck right now.. given the time and the circumstances that CD came out, it will always stay one of my favorites...

i also think that the drought III was awesome too, but like you said, he isn't the same anymore.. i'm anxious to listen to dedication 4, i have only heard 2 tracks from that CD so far



wiz khalifa's rolling papers album is pretty awesome too
