So... This is a forever ongoing discussion on what's the best hiphop double album of all time, so I decided to make a poll about it. I didn't put Greatest hits albums or albums with bonus discs as double discs here.
2Pac - All eyez on me (1996)
Notorious B.I.G. - Life after death (1997)
Wu-Tang Clan - Wu-Tang forever (1997)
Bone Thugs-N-Harmony - The art of war (1998)
Krayzie Bone - Thug mentality (1999)
Cypress Hill - Skull & Bones (2000)
Jay-Z - The blueprint 2.1: the gift and the curse (2002)
OutKast - Speakerboxxx/The love below (2003)
Nas - Street's disciple (2004)
I'm really sorry if I forgot to list some albums, but I pretty much thought this was it. Time to share your thoughts!
-
2Pac, but I didn't hear all the albums
-
the outkast one was fresh, if only there were more albums like this being made
-
Scarface - My Homies>>>>>>>>>>all of the albums listed in this thread.
-
2Pac - All eyez on me, way better then the rest
-
It's a close call for me, but I like the Wu-Tang album the best. Only album on that list that I haven't heard is the Bone Thugs one... But it's never mentioned along with classics, so I guess it's not that special.
-
^^^Art of War is a very dope album.
But best one is All Eyez on Me followed very closely by Wu Tang Forever.....those are the only two double cds that I would give 5 mics to.
-
All Eyez On Me, but Art Of War and Thug Mentality 1999 are very dope albums as well!
-
There's one problem with double albums... They're hardly ever classics because they always got some weaker cuts. Maybe 35 tracks for one project is just too much - it's hard to keep people focussed listening. To my standards, none of the albums listed above are classics. Maybe the 2Pac joint, even though I like the Wu-Tang album better.
-
I consider both All Eyez On Me and Art Of War classics.
-
The Love Below Is New, I Consider It a Classic Like a Pickles Made By Glassic!
-
1. All Eyez on Me - 9.5/10
2.Wu Tang Forever - 9.5/10
3.Art of War - 9/10
4.TM1999 - 8/10
5.Life After Death - 7.5/10
6.Speakerbox/the love below - 6.5/10
7. Street's disciple - 6.5/10
8 .Skull & Bones 6/10
9.The blueprint 2.1: the gift and the curse - 6/10
-
2Pac - All Eyez On Me
The Blueprint 2: The Gift & The Curse is considered as Jay-Z's worst album
i'll be shocked if anyone rates Jay-Z's worst album better than one of 2Pac's best ever albums....lol
-
the Wu-Tang. "AEOM" had some mediocrity on the second disc, the Wu one was more consistently nice IMO
-
biggie and 2pac ones
-
For me, its Life After Death.....Hands down....That album is in my top 5 of all time....
-
its not up there but im going with Gangstar - Full Clip which is hella sick
-
^^That Doesnt Count, Full Clip Is A "Greatest Hits" Double CD, all those songs were on other CD's before
-
All Eyez On Me and then Art Of War
-
