wait I did not realize that was a big label record, that’s hilarious

 

excellent thank you

 

Lol yeah. It really is good though.

 

Holy shit, the Armand Hammer/Alchemist album is fucking great. Definitely listening to that again later.

 

you're welcome. enjoy!

I also highly recommend this mini-series...

 

Armand Hammer joint is good

 

Below are some of my favorites

Master P:
Ice Cream Man
Ghetto D
Da Last Don
Only God Can Judge Me (criminally underrated)

C-Murder
Life of Death
Bossalinie
Trapped in Crime

Silkk the Shocker
Made Man

Tru
True
Da Crime Family

Mac
World War III

Snoop Dogg
Tha Last Meal (only snoop dogg album I like front to back)

Soundtrack
I Got The Hook-Up

 

Echoing that Armand Hammer is real real good

 

The I Got The Hook-Up soundtrack is great

 

Snoop Dogg has a lot of underrated albums for some reason

 

I’m surprised there hasn’t been any critical re-evaluation of “Sensual Seduction” (the edited title is better tbh). Felt ahead of its time.

 

Aside from Today Was A Good Day, Ghetto Vet is one of my all-time favorite Ice Cube songs.

 

It is great. My favorite Ice Cube song is probably Until We Rich.

 

Yep Armand Hammer album is great. What a run billy woods is on. Still think Brass is one of the best and most underrated albums from last year or really the past couple years.

 

Yeah, was just thinking that he’s been on a hell of a run. The two AH albums and his albums with Moor Mother and Kenny Segal are all solid as hell. He doesn’t get the recognition he deserves.

 

Everyone should listen to the Armand Hammer

 

I genuinely believe Big KRIT- 4eva Is a Mighty Long Time deserves a spot on here

 

Never thought of that as a double album but looking at how long it is it makes sense. Did it ever come out in a physical form as a double album though? If not I can’t allow it lol

 

Not positive about physical but I know KRIT fully considers it a double album, he's going for two different sounds on each disc, and the first disc starts with a track titled after his rap name and the second starts with his real name

Plus iTunes has it as two discs

 

That’s good enough then, haha. It’s a good album but I personally wouldn’t rank it above any of those others. There aren’t too many great double albums that I can think of off the top of my head though so it’s probably close to the top five at least.

 

I think the definition of “double album” has been sort of muddled over the years, what do you look at CD data storage or how records are listed on streaming.

Like I’m fairly certain that the last A Tribe Called Quest record is a double album, but could easily fit on one CD, and is arguably shorter than a lot of bloated late 90s/early 2000s major label rap records.

 

I think that if there isn’t a physical release that is a double album, then it depends if it’s marketed as a double album. But it doesn’t really matter anyway unless we’re specifically ranking doubles albums.

What makes you say that about the Tribe album though? I happen to have the CD and it is indeed one disc. Did they market it as one?

 

huh, I didn’t realize that! It’s listed as a double album on Apple, that must have been what I was thinking of
