The Greatest 50 Hip-hop Albums Ever - Honorable Mention

[Elevz]

Good looking on this list, you put up some nice stats there. Yet I'm wondering about some albums.

Big L - Lifestylez ov da poor & dangerous
Capone -N- Noreaga - The war report
Big Punisher - Capital punishment
Eazy-E - Eazy-duz-it
Method Man - Tical
LL Cool J - Mama said knock you out
Onyx - Bacdafucup
Sticky Fingaz - Black trash
Xzibit - 40 dayz & 40 nightz
Westcoast Connection - Bow down
Luniz - Operation Stakola
Redman - Dare iz a darkside
Tha Alkaholiks - 21 & Over
WC & The Maad Circle - Ain't a damn thang changed
Cypress Hill - Black Sunday
Cypress Hill - Cypress Hill
Souls of Mischief - 93 til infinity

They may not all have been top30 albums, but those are definately some really great albums and the majority of them is seen as certified classic. What's your thoughts on those albums regarding the top 50 list?

Besides, you should add this topic to the sticky thread as well!

Black star should be in in it and Talib´s  Quality too. maybe MM lp but a nice list.

No way Black Star or Quality would make it.  As good as they may be, they just aren't in the same league as any of those albums.  Very minimal impact.

I just noticed you didn't have any Gangstarr album in you top 50 

I've addressed this.  Basically thier problem is that they really lack a stand out album, thus you don't put an album name and just put "any Gangstarr album".

Yet I'm wondering about some albums.

There are only so many albums you get in the top 50.  I can't see cutting The Score for Bow Down or Reasonable Doubt for Bacdafucup.  All good albums but don't have much on any of the top 50.

I wasn't really saying they SHOULD have been in the list, more like they COULD have been. After all, albums like Bacdafucup, Eazy-duz-it and Mama said knock you out definately have been big and influential. Not to down that album, but how much influence has for example Com's Resurrection had? I feel like some of the albums I listed there definately deserve to be up there, but like you already said a long time ago, it's been a close call for the albums ranked around the 30s and 40s. I was just wondering about your reasons for chosing these albums not to be listed, not even as honorable mentions.

Besides that, is there any chance of a hookup for the honorable mentions? I would really love to hear the Biz Markie and Jungle Brothers albums
