Kanye West - College Dropout

one.be.lo - S.O.N.O.G.R.A.M

Viktor Vaughn - Vaudeville Villain
MF Doom/Nas - Nastradoomus 1 + 2
Scarub & Very - Afro Classics?
Danger Mouse - The Grey Album
Kanye West - The College Dropout

I wish I could post more, but *good* hip-hop seems to be more rare these days and solid hip-hop albums are even more rare. The Scarface album will require some investigation. I've got the first Geto Boys album and the first Scarface. He's a solid rhymer and storyteller, but can sound kind of dopey if he gets too comfortable with the slow flow.
