I can't really rank best to "worst", but this is my list of the best 19 (random number lol) albums of the last 5 years.

block obama volume 2 was not a mixtape - it all 100% original material on it, nobody else's beats.

Ya I wouldn't count tapes or street albums. In that case I'd add some more Joe Budden, Crooked I & Bishop Lamont. Rain & J. Cole as well.

i suppose you're right; more of a street album than a mixtape.

Really?

In my opinion there was only like 3 wack songs off that record. And usually, for me, it's just the opposite. I buy a Hip Hop album now and only enjoy like 3 or 4 songs off it. :D

And honestly, The Documentary and The Big Bang are the only 2 off the top of the head, that are fortunately not like that......(since '05)
