FIVE MUST HAVE ALBUMS OF 2003...

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Gangstarr - The Ownerz

[Adam Donnelly]

Gotta go with
Canibus - Rip The Jacker

[Citizen-Y]

Macho Man - Be A Man

[N-Sane Brain]

...Louis Logic - Sin-O-Matic...

Why is everyone callin' it "Sin-O-Matic"? I bought it when it came out without downloadin' it from mIRC before - it's definitely called "Sin-A-Matic". But on mIRC nearly every bot calls it "Sin-O-Matic"

Out what this year has to offer, I'd get these (Yes, there's more than five... Why should you limit it to five? Get as many as you can I say!):

*50 Cent - Get Rich or Die Trying
*D.O.C. - Deuce
*Westside Connection - Terrorist Threats
*Obie Trice - Cheers <--- IMO this is much better than what the sales figures would have you believe, but then again it ain't about the sales, it's about the music.
*Jay-Z - Black Album
*G-Unit - Beg For Mercy
*True Crime OST
*DMX - Grand Champ

The new Outkast didn't really get to me... I'd give it a listen before buying it.

Plus, there might be 213 and Tical:0 coming still this year. I'll most certainly get those.
