God-tier hip hop: non /mu/ core edition
Let's go faggots
>>73102936
>>73102936
bumpin this. not the op but i want to see what people post here
Never see this mentioned here
Posting my favorite hip hop album of all time, only listen to this a couple times a year so it's magic doesn't wear off , I trashed someone's car to paragraph president
>>73104380
You right
Not quite god tier but never see it on /mu/
>>73102936
comfy af
made a thread about this album last night and got no responses
Is this /mu/core?
God-tier for sure.
>>73104488
Underrated
>>73104745
I'll check this out
>>73104828
Entry level /mu/ yeah it's good though
>>73104871
I love it but it's at least somewhat /mu/core
>>73102936
>>73102936
Illmatic.
36 Cambers.
Fresh Prince opening theme.
>>73105109
Meh, meh, and garbage GTFO
>>73105132
Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff actually put out some really good shit in the early 90's
Strap it up, you murder the pussy
Real beef you don't talk, you just murder the pussy, see me
>>73105219
I hope he gets slashed and dashed , so fucking annoying ads. The girls look like they don't even want to be there
>>73105435
Wow it took a long time for bait to get into this thread but I think we actually got some.
>>73104340
retaliation is best track by far. Quality post
>>73105448
pleb
>>73104745
love this album. too bad the rest of blu's stuff was whatever. probably had something to do with exile's production on this.
>>73105009
this is kind of a classic, i dunno if mucore but any average hip hop fan would know what this is i feel like.
>>73105527
this is definitely mucore come on, this is one of the best instrumental hip hop albums of all time, it's up there with nujabes and dilla stuff
great thread
>>73104871
>>73105527
100% /mu/core, leave faggot
>>73105501
Man you are really sticking your guns I admire that.
>>73105470
Thanks.
>>73105009
its like a bad three 6 mafia
>>73104745
give me my flowers while i can still smell them is better
>>73105684
god i thought i was the only one on here that knew about this
humanos mexicanos is a fucking banger
If you like the wiggity wack das fx from the first album listen to this
Most underrated duo of all time
Huge lack of Dirty South music ITT
>>73105711
Yeah, I don't really like sharing what some of the stuff I know, if you like that try sindicato argentino del hip hop, tiro de gracia, and there's an MTV compilation called Latino lingo, also some stuff from Molotov and illya kuriyaki and the vallderamas
Busta a fucking legend
Especially his shit before he started rapping fast all the time and he just had the crazy flow
>>73105801
his album genesis is probably my favorite from him, also dilla's best tracks are on there regardless of what others say
>>73104745
>>73104828
>>73104871
>>73105009
>>73105109
>>73105527
>>73105706
seen all of these on different /mu/core charts at least once each, some even on the essentials chart
>>73105590
This would be a 10/10 without the horrible skits and the 15 minute long WE song
I've probably shilled this too much
>>73102936
This is probably my most interesting find , puppetmastaz. The guy from EC8OR produced some albums for them . Some of their stuff is hard to find , at least when I found out about them 10 years ago
>>73105938
>madvillainy
>not /mu/core
>>73102969
FINALLY someone besides me on here has heard this album, I've been shilling it on /mu/ for years
>>73105938
>God-tier hip hop: non /mu/ core edition
> non /mu/ core edition
Some of the cleanest production I've ever heard on a mainstream Hip Hop album, some of Dre's best beats as well
Put some respeck on Luda's name
>>73106071
This is actually really good, I was listening to it last week. Better than I remember .
One of my favorite Rap albums of the 2000s
Probably his best album after Reasonable Doubt
Blueprint and Black Album are great too but mainly just for their production, American Gangster's a God-tier all-around album
>>73105699
good taste
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVF_6EpQlcs
most fire track you'll hear all day
This is the best rap album ever
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VwfYCFYZws
>>73106206
fuck yes OGC is essential gritty nighttime moodz music
RIP Q-Ball
>>73102936
lol the first thing you post in the thread is WE WUZ POETS N SHEEIT? lul
Extremely underrated, and Dr. Dre's best work as a beatmaker (tied with Doggystyle)
>>73106451
Yes. Have been telling people this for years.
>>73106264
yessss
>>73105747
You want some GOAT Southern albums?
Here's 50 of 'em for ya. Yes, that album is on here as well.
>>73102936
So seriously, no one has called out OP on throwing out one of the most hyped albums while asking for non hyped albums? I've never met a hiphophead that wasnt into One For All.
>>73106264
Underrated album right here
>>73106337
I live in Davis man, still slap this shit all day 916
Any recommendations for early or mid 2000s hip-hop? All I've really heard is Kanye.

this is a personal favorite.
bloods and crips - bangin on wax
>>73107599
this
>>73107154
>>73107729
Nice, although Deltron 3030's s/t blows Eminem's entire discog the fuck out.
>>73107894
I agree.
>>73102987
my nigga
Great gangster rap. Some of the best if you ask me.
>>73107729
I don't understand this chart.
how the FUCK did you make it this far without mentioning either Ridin Dirty by UGK or DJ Skrew
why does the south get no love
Also Da Drought 2 and Dedication, people seem to forget Wayne was the best rapper in the world for several years running
As far as newer stuff I'd say Stranger than Fiction by Kevin Gates or Lean and Neck by Retchy P Lo Sweater
>>73107362
good on you for mentioning Hell Hath No Fury and King
>>73108733
>>73106714 mentions Ridin Dirty and 49 other Southern Rap albums
>>73106264
Was gonna post that. Anything can happen is such a good track.
Made a list of 9 albums I hardly ever see on /mu/ that are solid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYlNanGBBCs
>>73108575
First horizontal row is 2000, second is 2001 and so on. It lists 12 albums from each year between 2000 and 2009. The great-bad scale etc is just for you to make notes with if you're listening through the chart.
>>73107020
i've literally never seen it mentioned on /mu/
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aIoH4Z-SR_A
>>73110220
>The Shine on you Crazy Diamond stuff on 'how we roll'
>>73105435
being all serious, if someone doesn't consider GRoDT a must-listen of 2000-2010 rap music, then he is clearly retarded. This album was produced by Dre and Eminem while still in their prime, it's an pinnacle of mainstream gangsta rap
>>73110102
Das fx and onyx are basically on every how to get into hip hop chart, they're on the /mu/ wiki too
>>73105435
Absolutely
>>73102936
Word. Ridin Dirty and Lifestyle of the Poorz have some radical bangers and sharpest delivery you're likely to hear from that 90ish or so period. Kudos for anyone mentioning Freestyle Fellowship and The Pharcyde
Classic
>>73105706
I used to think that, but nowadays I skip half the tracks on that album. He's made much better albums both before and after this.
>>73105448
I don't even like 50 cent but this album has become an undeniable classic.
>>73106171
Wholeheartedly agree. Feels like a modern Reasonable Doubt.
BP is still my favorite Jay album tho
Absolutely magnificent
>>73106111
I can't get over him breathing into the mic. Used to love this album before I noticed it.
>>73111375
Learn to read
>>73106451
Agreed. It was annoying how they focused so much on police brutality in the compton movie when half of this album was about trashing women. i guess they wouldnt have been able to pull it off with today's PC culture
>>73110932
And the other 7?
Havoc's darkest, grimiest beats in his career + Prodigy in terminator mode
Best mid 90s east coast album along with illmatic and 36 chambers. far more depressing and hard hitting than the Infamous
>>73106714
T H U G G A
>>73111632
Dpd I've seen when abstract/ alternative hip hop gets mentioned , the other ones not that mentioned that much
>>73111651
Someone would like a word with your list
A 34 minute gem
>>73106071
this was my shit when i was 10
>>73106111
good fuckin album
big pun's flow is legendary
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Tj9g1uBC9c
I saw someone mention Dr. Octagon once so I don't know if Keith is /mu/core or not, but this album is pretty god-tier.
I would put something by The Streets but I'm pretty sure they're /mu/core.
Kate Tempest's debut album is really good, but not god-tier so I'm just gonna mention it in passing.
>>73105817
Quality Post. Don't know why they aren't mentioned on /mu/ more.
>>73105448
Solid bait
>no rodeo itt
I love this thread.
Here have this 80s/90s charts
This is solid
This isn't god tier but its p cool

Underrated
>>73106111
never forget
>>73106722
dubs confirm.
death grips btfo
>>73115507
You know it
>>73112829
For sure one of the best flows ever, I think i would put him right after method man.
i fucking love the sample in that song in particular, also used here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_5edxArGT8
its from an amazing french cartoon movie from the seventies.
>>73105876
Big up de Busdriva!
>>73106264
This right the fuck here.
>>73106111
This and Tesuo are masterpieces. Kick Push is one of the GOAT hip hop songs desu
