Definitely the best rap album of the whole century, and there wont be a better hip hop album than this one.
Say what you will about Eminem in more recent times but in 2000 he was epic.
Simply the best
This album is amazing. The beats and lyrics are incredible and themes on this album are varied and interesting.
This album sucks horribly compared to TPAB. He even has a Drake feature on here!
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.
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.
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
You are 100% insane if you don't think this is the best rap album since 2000. The only one that even is in comparison is Illmatic and MBDTF is better.
This album allows you to have the ability to have one solid run-through and have every track be amazing.
Eminem in his prime
Greatest Rap album ever. One of the best albums in any genre of music. Should be first.
The best Hip-Hop album of the 21st century, by some margin too.
This is the greatest rap album of all time after J. Cole's 2014 Forest Hills Drive
To me, better than MMLP, Straight Outta Compton, and Ready to die. This breathed life back into hip hop
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?
One of the best albums to come out of Memphis, as well as southern rap albums period. The production and rapping is on point for almost the entire album, and most of the songs are classics that you can play over and over without ever getting tired of.
It's a disgrace that GKMC and Kanye's overrated trash is higher than this.
This album is horrible, how in the world is it higher than the Carter III, 2014 Forest Hills Drive, and Stankonia.
Best lil wayne album by far, and this was when wayne was ruled the game.
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.
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.
Perfect album 0 skips
This the goat
