UGK Ridin Dirty

Are the only 3 that come to mind.



You could play these 3 and Aquemini without skipping songs.



8ball lost and DMX its dark and hell is hot are up where.

Some of the screw freestyle tapes were amazing too.

Aquemini is criminally underrated. It's an all time great among all albums and not just rap albums.

With that being said Illmatic is probably still number one but I'm gonna throw some albums in that definitely should be in the conversation.

Souls of Mischief "93 till Infinity": The undisputed greatest posse album of all time and a top 20 rap album of all time. These guys were positive, intelligent, and you haven't lived until you've heard a hieroglyphics freestyle session live.

Wu Tang Clan "36 Chambers"

Gza "Liquid Swords": Although 36 Chambers is the original I think this is Gza's best collection of beats.

Gravediggaz "6 Feet Deep"

Company Flow "Funcrusher Plus": A seminal album that gets overshadowed by other mid nineties juggernauts but would be one of a handful that would define underground hip hop for the next half decade.

Mos Def "Black on Both Sides": The most underrated album in hip hop history.

Blackalicious "Melodica"

Jeru the Damaja "The Sun Rises in the East"


Zion I "MInd over Matter": this one technically came out in 2000 but I had to list it because it is so good yet overlooked. These guys are like the West Coast version of OUtcast. A buddhist, a muslim, and a Christian making dope, down to earth hip hop with drum and bass influences.

Deltron 3030, it came out in 2000, but definitely one of the GOAT's.

90s will never be topped for rap. You had G Funk, east coast, no limit, nwa.

Illmatic will always take the 90's rap title IMO. So raw, so real.

I change my mind on which is the best depending on which one I heard more recently. I'm listening to ATLiens right now, so it's my current pick for best rap album.

Having just gotten into both of these albums I am on the fence. The beauty is I don't have to choose. I can listen to both.
