i aint jus talkin about west coast hip hop or hip hop only, im talkin about music overall, any genre..........really coming to think about it we havent had a great album to me since............dre 2001-which wasnt totally superior but probably the strongest shit to come out in years for replay value n shit too.
now alot of great albums have come out
all eminems
nas to summa y'all
jay-z to summa y'all
alicia keys - i gotta say one thing though.........shes given her genre of music alot mo respect, she really came through, with a really good album, but not great
add to the list y'all, i cant type them all down
......n then we got all these hyped up comebacks n how great albums they bringin out n shit...............
michael jackson - invincible - above average album but weaker than past attempts
oasis - cant stand rock music n shit but i use to listen summa ther shit but this albums kinda weak apart from a few tracks
.........aiight help me out, add to the lists
but yo, do summa y'all feel me?

Im a hip hop head, so its gonna be a hip hop album that I name.
However, the last TRUE hip hop classic to come out, in my opinion, was Outkast's "Aquemini". I think "Stillmatic" is a classic, but its too new to call it that for the sake of arguement. But yea, Im gonna with Aquemini. Words cant describe how beautiful that album is, and personally, I dont think anything that has come out since can touch it.

Dillinger and Young Goooooooootttttttttttttttiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*bumps Dipp wit me and leaves thread*

hmm... last great album i heard... and by great i mean flawless, because i like a lot of stuff and i thought 2001 was a dope year for hip-hop... was... wait for it.... Masta Ace. since 1998 (5 years) there's been a bunch of really good albums, and a few great ones. Ace comes to mind, as does Chronic 2001 (despite its flaws), Deltron 3030, Things Fall Apart, Like Water For Chocolate, Bad Dreams, The Future Is Now... there's a lot of dope stuff out there, to me. its just sometimes harder to find and appreciate because of the oversaturation of pop.

As far as hip hop goes, the last two albums that meant anything to me - and I mean really moved me, provided a real soundtrack to my life, not just bumping beats) - are
Quik's 'Rhythm-al-ism'
Outkast's 'ATLiens'
For non-hip hop:
James Taylor 'Hourglass' (THE most beautiful music I have ever heard, full stop)
Daft Punk 'Discovery' (a soundtrack to my days at uni; to be played loudly while drinking before hitting the club)
-
Dr. Dre - 2001
Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow.

there have been many pretty good albums, such as Dre's 2001 compilation, RAW, Rythm-al-ism, NL Top Dogg, UTEOT, Stillmatic, etc. But the last "great" album I've heard was Makaveli. That album covered basically every aspect of the spectrum, from battle tracks to thought provoking tracks to even a party jam (Toss It up). This album flowed together because there were limited producers and limited guest appearances, and overall, the album just flowed smoothly from one song to the next. It wasn't overrun with hundreds of guest artists and 65 producers, and didn't have a horrific sounding first single just meant to sound pop to get more sales (i.e. "Hot in Herre", "Snoop Dogg", "Without me", "The Real Slim Shady", etc.).

OH SNAP, I forgot all about Dungeon Family. That is highly underrated too. As a matter of fact, I haven't even heard anyone on this forum mention that album other than you.
Props

2001 was the last great album alot of people have heard in here huh, your obviously not listening to much shit because since 2001 there's been a GRIP of great albums released. Check it:
Talib Kweli & Hi Tek - Train Of Thought
Sticky Fingaz - Black Trash....
Warren G - Return Of The Regulator
Chico & Coolwadda - Wild 'N Tha West
Dungeon Family - Even In Darkness
Nas - Stillmatic
Eminem - The Eminem Show
Blackalicious - Blazing Arrow
D.I.T.C - D.I.T.C
Alicia Keys - Keys In A Minor
Truth Hurts - Truthfully Speaking
There's more too, you just need to realise that not many albums are gonna come close to topping 2001, the only person who can prolly top it is Dre himself....
-
Chronic 2001 without a doubt
Tha Last Meal was very dope too.(betta than Top Dogg, Da Game Is To Be Sold,... & Tha Doggfather in my opinion)
Sticky Fingaz - Black Trash
Onyx - Shut'em Down
