Some of the albums dropped this year...

The Big Bang- Busta Rhymes
Cash on Delivery- Ray Cash
Fishscale- Ghostface Killah
King- T.I.
Game Theory- The Roots
The Format- AZ
The Blue Carpet Treatment- Snoop Dogg
The Doctors Advocate- The Game
Mo Mega- Mr. Lif
In My Mind- Pharrell
Eminem Presents The Re-Up- Shady Records
Kingdom Come- Jay-Z
Hell Hath No Fury- Clipse
Food and Liqour- Lupe Fiasco
The Last Stand- Boot Camp Clik

Im sure Im missing a lot so name your pick so far..

Im between the Clipse effort and Jay's, both unreal. I think I give the slight edge to the Clipse though, classic material.

I'm feeling Game album definitely as one of the top albums. I thought he kept it real street and those are the kind of albums I like. But, I have to go with Food and Liquor. That album was completely different from anything this year. This will go down as a classic when you reflect on it. The production was incredible, the way the songs were sequenced and how they all flowed together. I was extremely impressed with his album.

Gotta go with Lupe Fiasco's effort, Food and Liquor. I'm still banging it constantly now. Great production and a nice lyricist in Lupe.

game theory, fishscale, or the great migration.

I can't fully comment because I haven't heard Hell Hath No Fury yet but I've heard lots of good stuff about it..just heard that they had weak hooks.

I think it's between Kingdome Come, Food & Liquor, Doctor's Advocate, Fishscale, The Big Bang, Laugh Now Cry Later, or Hi-Tek's new joint...

And I think I'm going to have to go with Hi-Teknology 2: The Chip. That ****'s bangin.

Game Theory.

Yeah I forgot it but it isnt album of the year anyway.

Album of the year for me is still Ne-Yo's album.

The Roots - Game Theory and Swollen Members - Black Magic right behind....

Are you guys talking about that 'money maker' song with Pharrell? That **** sucks, decent beat though.

that songs makin more money then we will ever made. ya know its easy for us to criticize ppls songs but the ppl the r driven in the lambos and have mansions and fine *****es and fame r the 1s laughing at us.

most rappers would ask "can u do better"and laugh in our faces,cause we aint doin **** but critizing as we listen to there music on out ipods and on the computer as we sit our lazy ass's on the couch.ahahaha

I feel bad for your parents. They raised a grade A idiot.

I dont care if it's making money. It's wack. I dont care if they're laughing at people with less than them. It's a wack song, I don't care if his album goes triple platinum, that doesnt make the song good. Tell me, if I was to criticize an east coast song that's popular, would you give the same response as you did?

What's with all value being placed on money these days? Just because those ****ty southern artists makes more money then most of us doesn't make them better people then the average joe with an office job.

At the end of the day it's all about the music, not how much money it makes, and that song is incredibly wack (like most southern artists).

"Meet me in the mallll, it's goin down"

...ok?

I got bored of hip hop this year. I should prolly check that hi-teknology 2 though.

I feel bad for your parents. They raised a grade A idiot.

get a life homie and talk **** to ppl in person instead of talkin **** to ppl u know can kick your ass in person.consider this my last words to u.its pathetic that u gotta say your stuff on the net.enough said. see ya buddy!

Food and Liquor & Game Theory

ill reply to your post cause u make more since then the other guys essay that I didn't bother to read. now since u actually live in the united states and can relate a lot more ill respond to u.

now I didn't say u didn't have to like the song all I was saying is they probably think were idiots talkin down on there songs.now if u wanted to talk about e.coast then go ahead and do so.I'm starting to broaden my horizon but is seems as if u guys r still 1 diminsional.it would take a blindman to not see the south is on top but all yall talk about is e.coast now that's 1 diminsional.

Versatile, do you realise that the Jay Z quote in your sig is wrong. He says he could sell water to a well, not a whale.

Tough decisin but av to go with Doctors advocate, Food & Liquor

Dat all could change wen Nas drops his album!!!

I've always felt that Ludacris could put out a classic if he wanted to, but his focus is on getting radio play and releasing discs too frequently.

Ludacris puts out a lot of good songs. He has a nice flow, a great personality, a sense of humor and, at times, a distinctive rhyme style.

**** like "Money Maker", "Diamond in the Back", "Pimpin' All Over the World" may make him money, but they do a disservice to him as an artist. It seems like 2 out of 3 radio singles for Ludacris are garbage and he'll guest on anybody's song.

One dimensional is exactly the opposite of my taste in music. I acknowledge the fact that the South is on top, as far as radio airplay and t.v. exposure. They are NOT on top, as far as where quality music is coming from. That's what matters to me:Good music. Not popularity, not exposure. NO single coast is on top, in that regard. I meant that if I had called a popular, well selling east coast artist's song 'wack', I doubt you would defend them like you do the southern artists. Again, sales do not matter most when it comes to good music, thinking that, would be....one dimensional.

I didnt mind Release Therapy it had some nice tracks but overall it wasnt anything to special.

Food and Liquor right now.

who r u to say that e.coast has better quality music.ppl down here think e.coast music is crap.u go to different coast u get different opinions.now u might think its quality but I hang with a lot of ppl that think different.different strokes for different folks buddy

You're right... People in the south like and support southern hip-hop (majority)... People from the east coast like and support east coast hip-hop (majority)... If we are talking about hip hop, real hip-hop... Obviously that would mean east coast hip-hop is the better quality... Taking into account that hip-hop originated there... Music from the south is different... Not to say it is bad (can't be bad because it does have a following), but to me and to any TRUE HIP-HOP head... IT IS AWFUL! Now-a-days it's all about money and not quality "hip-hop"... Whatever sells will be duplicated and run into the ground until the next garbage catches on (i.e. Lean wit it, Shoulder lean)... To me that also includes a lot of those garbage 50 cent tracks with trash lyrics and excellent catchy hooks... Hip-Hop is Dead... Jay-Z has put the gotten the heartbeat back though... He has got some "hip-hop" back on the radio... A lot of artists do have some solid music but it's not getting airplay like the lean wit it, it's goin down, ears hang low GARBAGE!

Hip-Hop won't be dead for much longer though...

I'm NOT saying e.coast has better quality music than anywhere else. Read the post again:nonono: Just because I think that a lot of the pop. music from the South that's been coming out has been lackluster, doesnt mean I automatically think the East is better. Like I said, NO COAST is on top, as far as quality music is concerned. If you're talking sales, The South is on top. BTW, that Clipse song "Trill" will be making my 'Best of 2006' compilation.

I like the debate we have going. I'd like to add to versatile2k6, one of the reasons why east coast rap is better than southern rap is the wide variety of subject matter - many more artists with many more topics and themes in their songs.



Why hasn't anyone mentioned Murs' "Murray's Revenge"? That was a GREAT album, 2nd best this year IMO behind Ghostface's "Fishscale". I also think the new Meth album was pretty good.

Ghostface-Fishscale

I'm going to have to say Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor.


He totally went against the grain with this album, and really brought Hip Hop back to the basics. IMO, Lupe was the return of ' the average Joe ' in hip hop...in a time where everyone is a pimp, thug, hustler...and everything except for normal.

Defensively paranoid. Calm down. This song will be 'song of the year' material if it lives up to potential. How is that not relevant to a 'best of the year' thread? Do you understand how huge a Rakim/Nas/KRS-ONE(/Kanye) track produced by Rick Rubin is? Do you know who Rick Rubin is? This is going to be huge. I didnt 'bring' back ****, it was on the 2nd page. I'm not trying to be "funny" or "a *****".:nonono:

Don't know what that's supposed to mean, but even if I did bump this thread, which I didnt(it's an end of the year thread), why would you think I'm doing something malicious? I posted the video you showed me, what's wrong with that? Why didnt you just post it for everyone to see. See, as a music fan, I try to listen to as much as I can, I don't care about who sells the most, where they come from, I don't just blindly follow people from my area, I love to hear new music, North, South, East, West. On a side note, Vanilla Ice sold close to 18 million records.:banana:

I'll keep saying it, just like everytime anyone disses ANYONE from the south, you refer to them being popular in the mainstream media.

That article you linked is the blackest thing I've ever read. All these great hip hop artists are collaborating..... on a song to commemorate the 1 year anniversary of a shoe? Black people ****ing worry me sometimes.

Can anyone tell me if they know what the Circuit City "exclusive" download track for the Hip Hop Is Dead release is? Best Buy's is "Where Y'all At?"
