Most of you toys think that self-respecting hiphop heads actually listen to artists like Soulja Boy, Gucci Mane, Young Jeezy and the like, but you prove your n00bish, toy-like existence by not recognizing the classic albums. The following albums that I will post (and dispute) in this thread are certified hiphop classics from a purist's standpoint.




On April 19, 1994, the world of hiphop was taken by storm for, what was considered, the epitome of east coast hiphop of that time period. Nasty Nas dropped Illmatic. The entire album provides a visual of sitting on a an old bench in the dead of winter, bullshittin' with brothas from around the way about so and so, and what happened when the cops came through. Its like getting a hood lecture from that one young cat that ran with the older kids and was wise well beyond his years. If you're ignorant to Illmatic, you've been missing out.

Bone Thungs N Harmony-E.1999 Eternal

Bone Thugs Might Not Be Lyricists, But I Think We Can All Agree That They Are One Of The (if Not The Best) Hip-Hop Groups Of All Time..

Lupe Fiasco- Food & Liquor

Lupe Fiasco Is One Of The Premier Lyricists Of his Time..Along With Ppl Like Common, Talib Kweli, Mos Def. Etc. thumbsup.gif
