Hip-Hop Thread [ARCHIVED] Genre • Page 531

I don't only listen to recent stuff. There's a decent amount of 90s stuff I enjoy. The 00s gets lost on me outside of a few albums though

 

read the rap yearbook

 

Is it controversial to say I enjoy Iron Man way more than any Wu-Tang album

 

Want to know the album that made me like hip hop? GKMC.

Some people in here about to feel really old lol

 

Iron man is a great marvel character I agree

 

Radio is so good

 

I don't frequently listen to a lot of 80's rap, but the shit from the 90's is fucking incredible. You got Outkast, The Fugees, De La Soul, Lil Kim, Pharcyde, Snoop, Wu-Tang, Black Star, Tribe, Goodie Mob, DOOM, Common... the list goes on and on.

 

There are A LOT more essential 90s rap album yes, many of which hold up 100% and are still among the best the genre has to offer, but there’s probably still around 10 80s rap albums I still really enjoy

 

Goodie Mob’s Soul Food And Bone Thugs E.1999 are the first rap albums I ever heard and still hold up

 

MBDTF for me.

In 2013.

 

Bloody children

 

Sorry old man

What was your first hip hop album?

 

HOLY SHIT NEW EP INCOMING

 

Was one of my first

 

Give it up to queen Latifah y’all

 

GKMC is just a worse version of the 80s-90s albums you won’t listen to!

 

I’ve come to accept I’m a miserable old git haha

First hip hop album I owned was Too Legit To Quit by MC Hammer. It was on cassette. I was 8. Fuck, that’s depressing.

 

If it makes you feel better the few 18 year olds on here make me feel old lol

 

I remember buying E. 1999 Eternal in 5th or 6th grade when it first came out with bags of quarters.

 

Criminally, I don’t think I’ve ever listened to all of E. 1999 Eternal. I had Crossroads and 1st of tha Month on single and listened to both so much, but for whatever reason, never listened to the album. Gonna fix that now.

 

This one was my gateway drug

 

Harsh but true lol

 

GKMC is amazing, still one of my fave hip hop albums

 

HOT TAKE: The *original* Crossroads is MILES better than the popular Crossroads version (which is a remake following Eazy E's death).

Also, go listen to Mo Murda.

 

My favourite 90s hip hop album is DJ Quik - Quik is the Name
