Best Rap Albums of the 21st Century

Definitely the best rap album of the whole century, and there wont be a better hip hop album than this one.

Best Eminem album listening to it right now

Simply the best

SO GOOD

An understated masterpiece. People fail to realize the effect this album has has on hip hop culture, and even more so the homage it pays to the MUSIC community through its intricate production/samples and pop culture references.

This album was music at its recent finest. The title track was perfect! The album was like a rap version of Prince purple rain album

Why is Recovery here? That was a terrible album, it was pop music. This is the greatest rap album of the 21st century by far.

So it was terrible BECAUSE it was pop music? Yeah, your credibility ends there. - WonkeyDude98

Hauntingly beautiful!

This album is amazing. The beats and lyrics are incredible and themes on this album are varied and interesting.

This album was inspired by illmatic

Best album I know since dre chronicles

Very special, kendrick you are truly the best :))

This album allows you to have the ability to have one solid run-through and have every track be amazing.

Til I Collapse, without me its really an incredible album

Eminem in his prime

Great

To me, better than MMLP, Straight Outta Compton, and Ready to die. This breathed life back into hip hop

Greatest Rap album ever. One of the best albums in any genre of music. Should be first.

Only at 45 what the hell - DolanDuck1

This is the greatest rap album of all time after J. Cole's 2014 Forest Hills Drive

Songs in this album were just AMAZING

So good

No just no kys

I'm a stan...and I know this is list is way too messed up..like..recovery? Better be in your trash can

It's very simple.. This is the blueprint. Of rap music. This is how it should be done. This is HOV at his very best. The best rap album by the best rapper ever, is it even a question?

Jay-Z is generally overrated but this album is amazing nonetheless, not the best of the century though, Kendrick is better

Are you kidding me, this is his worst album ever. It might be better if he hadn't used his Arab voice but cause if that it sucks

Amazing

Best Kanye West album I've listened to

godly

Develops into the best of the West Coast in 21st century thanks to great beats and influential rapping

He's the Game Changer - Subhojit_roy50

Best lil wayne album by far, and this was when wayne was ruled the game.

yo

This is a grammy nominated album from one of the most underrated rappers in the world. The combination of rapping and singing work out amazingly on the tracks. There are also 3 top 10 singles on this one album along with features from T.I, Bruno Mars and Eminem.

Recovery is top 5 and this is number 16? Bye guys

Where are the Eminem albums
Marshall mathers lp the rap álbum most sold in history - Yc07

Honestly one of the greatest pieces of hip-hop legend. Shows J Cole as an individual artist who can tell a story so well in an album that flows from start to finish with not a single rhyme out of place.

Better than most of these easily

This the goat

Yes

Yeah, the first 3 being Kanye might sound biased, but it is 100% true.

Wow! This album made em one of the Greatest. wordplay, flow, introspect, punchlines... Everything!

This is already there higher up on the list in like #1 or something so yall r pretty stupid

Yes

Every verse properly constructed and the punchlines timeless!

Fantastic concept album that follows through with the concept the entire album without trailing off. I'm ashamed at many people don't know about this album.
