I think your really limiting yourself if you lock yourself in the same rigid 3-part formula everytime, production/lyrics/flow. It's not always about that. There's more than just those three isolated categories.

How about determing a great record from another perspective? A great record can be an album that you have to listen to everytime you see the weather change from spring to summer. Or the first night the weather is hot after dark, you know that album will be in your car stereo. How about that criteria?

To me an album has 4 categories...Production, Lyrics, Flow, and Overall.

What you are saying about weather is part of the Overall rating categoring.

Regulate for me is like this

Production 10/10
Lyrics 6/10
Flow 7.5/10

Overall i give it a 9/10 even though adding up the math and dividing it doesnt give it the rating.

Post by: Elevz on March 29, 2005, 01:31:54 AM: Top 5 of all time? Damn... That's hard.

wtf @ people saying wtf @ Dead Prez... That's one of my all time favorites also
wtf @ that G-Unit fan mentioning a yet unreleased album with only one track leaked so far

OK... Here we go...

1) Wu-Tang Clan - Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) (1993)
2) Snoop Doggy Dogg - Doggystyle (1993)
3) Notorious B.I.G. - Ready to die (1994)
4) Dead Prez - Let's get free (2000)
5) Onyx - Bacdafucup (1993)

Can you tell 1993 was my favorite year? Actually, there's plenty more that belong wayyyyy up there imo. Think of...
Dr. Dre - The chronic (1992)
Nas - Illmatic (1994)
Eazy-E - Eazy-duz-it (1988)
Cypress Hill - Cypress Hill (1991)
Cypress Hill - Black Sunday (1993)
The D.O.C. - No one can do it better (1989)
De La Soul - 3 Feet high and rising (1989)
N.W.A - Greatest hits
... I could go on all day

Post by: Kill on March 29, 2005, 03:15:31 AM: I think "Regulate" is a lil bit overrated, too. Still a great album, but like Machiavelli said, mathematically it wouldn´t be all that. I say 6/10 is being nice to the lyrics, production for me is somewhere between 8.5 and 9.5...but i don´t know why people keep saying it´s the best w/c hiphop album ever, it´s some hella smooth shit, but i never really got quite ALL the hype about it...just my personal opinion

Title: Re: Another "Post Your Greatest 5 Albums Of All-Time" thread....HIP HOP ALBUMS
Post by: I`m Wayne Brady bitch! on April 01, 2005, 03:13:15 AM: 1. Snoop Dogg- Doggystyle. you can almost define this as the perfect rap cd. It is super funky, chilled out, entertaining. You name it.
2. Dr.Dre- The chronic. All of the above. Dr. Dre`s debut and masterpiece
3. Dr.Dre- 2001. I just started junior high when this cd was released. I just connect this cd with wonderfull times, it also saw a somewhat rebirth of west coast rap music.
4. Canibus- Rip the jacker. Verry epic sound to it suplied by Stoupe, and great lyrics by Canibus. It doesn`t have the ability to apeal to a wide audience, but I personally favor this cd verry much.
5. Outkast- Stankonia. This cd is verry experimental, but it`s also so damn good. Has a somewhat P-funk vibe to it

Post by: Kill on April 02, 2005, 07:21:29 AM: it´s a bit bombastic and poppy IMO. not that i´m against poppy music in general, but i love the experimental and psychedelic aspects on their earlier albums and i think that kinda got lost on "The Wall". My favorite is probably "Wish You Were Here", "Meddle" and "Dark Side Of The Moon" are incredible too
