List to the song "big brother" his dedication to Jay-Z and the way Jay got him into the game. one of my favorite songs of all time. and if "Good Morning" doesn't show you real, strong lyrical, master flow, music. then its just fair to say you disagree with all the other rap fans out there. Rap as in real rap, not bulls**t media-hyped garbage. KANYE IS THE REAL DEAL 003 your lost.

I cant even listen to Kanye all the way through. Let only really listen to more than a few tracks. Now hear me when I say this. Dillagence by far should have ben a lot higher on that list. That was some of Dilla's hottest beats and that was Busta Rhymes in a "back on his bullshyt" mode. Whats scary is that im sure these were not young people voting on this. I could understand young teens putting Kanye at the top of the list but this is a hip hop site and on a hip hop point of view I would have rather seen another album at number 1. All the media attention that Ye got does not mean that he should get number one. This aint Rolling Stones top 25 hip hop albums of 07. Now maybe im being a little harsh but I feel number two would have been best kept for Ye and number 1 should have went to a more hip hop album. Lupe, Jay or Common. But back to Dillagence. That was taking me back to when Busta was on point back in the gap but with a 08 vibe. That was a true hip hop album. Way more hip hop than Ye could and will ever be Are you serious.

Your 'yawn-inducing' list of emo-hoppers doesn't really impress much either. There's a reason those dudes don't sell records, their music is only good until they reach a certain level of notoriety. Then it's on to the next underground dude rapping about his feelings and how much being rich would suck anyway. 2) No Drought 3? Come on. 1) @ 003, It’s the internet, no one gives a fuck about punctuation, and you detailing your knowledge of grammar doesn’t make you more impressive.

And HIP HOP IS DEAD didn't make it. Those two things suggest that this list isn't of much importance or relevance. Nas's album was about a legitimate issue in hip hop and Kanye's was about pop/rap songs and getting billboard hits. The #1 album is from the worst lyricist in the top 10, this alone tells us that Nas was rite after all. That means they basically proved Nas right by making GRADUATION #1. It's about Billboard hits and not content, they may as well have put CURTIS in the top 10 then. NIGGAS WILL BE NIGGAS.

That's your prerogative, I find it quite hard to take a comment to heart from someone who just sh*tted on UGK, Ghostface, Lupe, Black Milk, Dillagence and a couple others. That certainly seems like intellectual snobbery to me. By the way, 'Poor sales' isn't my definition of underground, I was poking fun at you. I don't really care for any definition of underground anyway, it's either good or wack music imo. “I find difficult to take a list to heart when its forerunners are Kanye and Jay-Z.”
