I know a lot of you probably don't like rap. I agree that it probably takes less talent than many other genres of music. Anyone that tries to argue to me how rap is some eloquent art form is usually treated to a hardy laugh my yours truly. However, I do think if is fun to listen to, and I know that U2 and Bob Dylan can never rap as fast as Busta Rhymes either
This will be my first installment in Rap 101: What is good rap, and what is not.
Today there will be no serious lecture. I just wanted to see what rap fans out there think the top 5 rap albums of all time are. My list (in no particular order):
The Notorious B.I.G.: Ready to Die
Nas: Illmatic
Public Enemy: Fear of a Black Planet
Eminem: Marshall Mathers LP
Eric B. and Rakim: Paid In Full
I know a lot of other ppl will disagree with those 5, but that is why I am asking for opinions
Also, I wanna recommend listening to DMX: The Great Depression. The bass on track 4 is incredible. If you have good phones and a good amp, you should be blown away
