no...not murs this year,he came out too early to even consider...in the last several months some MAJOR LPs dropped and simply dominated my world...props on the little brother,nobody made a better debut!...actually maybe Tes or brother Ali
for me this year was either about madlib or the VILLAIN!...tie for album of the year is vaudeville villain or JAYLIB...both took me for a ride!

for real there's TOO much to name here...I can easily list 30 this year...it was that kind of year...I was talking to my brother about this last night,most of the head turning shit I heard this year was from hip hop!...this truly was a groundbreaking year for indie/underground hip hop while the mainstream counterpart continues to lack substance(CMON fiddy is the biggest rapper on the planet!!??)...from autechre beats to taking it back to the native tongue days,this year proved that hip hop is very much alive and SCREAMING!(at least screaming to be heard)Originally posted by Sugar D
both Jaylib and Little Brother get my votes.
Madlib- "Shades of Blue" was also up there. What a sick album.
Outkast should get mention too.
yes. good choice. not great though upon listening to it a few more times, but a good choice in an otherwise weak year (imho)Originally posted by OhNo!
Little Brother- The Listening
...when i first heard it I knew it would be,just my opinion though. i know Terra III will say the Murs joint,but I feel overall LB joint was tighter,whatever.

Weak offering? The Black Album is the best thing to happen to hip hop this year. Go to any actual hip hop site and you'll see the impact this album has made. Seriously, explain to me how this album is weak? Lyrically Jay comes correct and the production is solid despite the two Neptunes tracks.
Fuck what ya heard

i can't believe you're hating on gang starr, who are indeed ORIGINATORS in hip hop. primo is the only producer, in my opinion, to keep the same formula sounding fresh for years without getting stale. not even the neptunes can boast that.Originally posted by OhNo!

Oh,okay since I own every Gnagstarr album from 'Step Into The Arena' to 'The Ownerz' on vinyl id hardly said Im hating on them.That said I know that Primo and the Gifted Unlimited can come better than that,especially since how awesome 'Moment Of Truth' was.My comments are soley based on being a Gangstarr fan for over 12 years.As far as The 'Black album' goes I hardly consider it it anywhere near mediocre,when so much hype surrounds Lp as much as this one has and you come outta the gate with a weak ass single,as WEAK ASS single \,you gotta give your head a shake.Yet,'Threat' off that Lp is hype(9th Wonder of course).Originally posted by smile

regardless of it's intended audience,it still sucks.sorry dude,you've been took.Originally posted by smile
i liked 'change clothes', it's what it's supposed to be - a tune for the mamis in the clubs.
the bounce is back! sexy sexy...it's the groove! ha haaaaa
retard.you defend him like he's your boy,and you diss me for showing love to a friend,your lost homeboy.oy yeah,Jay z makes beats now?Originally posted by smile
well, he makes better beats than YOU do, right?
that's where the $$$ comes from.
i'm defending him because you're hating on someone who is obviously more successful than yourself. he's successful for a reason, he's talented!
if (to use an example of someone you like) madlib's so damn talented, then where is he, other than in some white boy's backpack?
success doesn't just show up, there's got to be something there.

the real loser is obviously you dude,face facts,you'll never be welcomed into this game your an outsider.I have respect for Jay z and Madlib as artists,your into hip-hop for image and nothing else.Originally posted by smile
