look yall just gotta accept it, rakim aint never comin back out again.

This is a dope-ass list. Well, it was 5 years ago.

Life happens. I will continue to dream, thank you.

is there a legitimate reason why royce only made the b team?

@RAE
Other than mindless omission brought on by old age? No.

I don’t think Kanye is calling his next album Good Ass Job. He was supposed to do that after Graduation but instead he went with 808’s and Heartbreak. I read something about him doing 4 songs for each season of the year and it was gonna be called Winter-Spring-Summer-Fall.

man, read just blazes twitter feed, then re-edit this blog entry.

@shanetron:
But people have been listening to Detox for years. I’ll believe it when I see it.

a full length, traditional (non-experimental) hip hop album from outkast would make my year!

Has anyone else heard about weezy’s new opera-style album? gonna be fya lol

I read something about him doing 4 songs for each season of the year and it was gonna be called Winter-Spring-Summer-Fall.

lol didnt atmosphere do that already with their e.p.’s ?

take OB4CL2 off that list. you know that album is as mythical as detox at this point!

Yes atmosphere did do that…Just goes to show Kanye is willing to rip off any good idea at this point.

I wanna see more of these young up and coming rappers on this list, Kid Cudi, Charles Hamilton, Asher Roth…etc.

Lupe decided to postpone LupEND

I wanna see more of these young up and coming rappers on this list, Kid Cudi, Charles Hamilton, Asher Roth…etc.

You have to be the ‘most wanted’ to be on the list…

Crooked I – B.O.S.S. (Beginning of Something Serious)

Dope List Riz, but i can’t muster to care about these albums though:
# Busta Rhymes – Back on My B.S.
# Saigon – The Greatest Story Never Told
# Chamillionaire – Venom
# Slim Thug – Boss of All Bosses
# Joe Budden – Padded Room

oh wait and this
# Lil Wayne – Tha Carter IV’/’I Can’t Feel My Face’/Rebirth

So you guys think UMC was just below the standard you set for Common or just bad altogether. I enjoyed UMC, but then again I also like Electric Circus.

Funkdoobiest-GOlden BBoys!!!!

Breal-Smoke & Mirrors

The only album im waiting on is

Drake-Thank Me Later

Crack!!
Yung Mula BABY!

Common’s album was dope by the way.

Raekwon – Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II << from the first 3 of 4 tracks I’ve heard this is going to be serious.

Did you hear about LupE.N.D. being postponed & Lu coming out with a new album instead in June?

[...] man Rizoh over at The Rap Up dug up a list of the top 20 most anticipated hip-hop albums of 2009.  After looking over the list, [...]

I definitely think that Jadakiss, Wale and Lil Wayne should be higher.

I can’t wait for Wale’s album, and if all 20 of these actually drop in 2009, than this is going to be a crazy year.

a billion sales to raekon of wu tang and to my man rakim, can’t wait the release of the other wu tang members, RZA,GZA,GFK,MK,U-GOD and Capadonna

I am almost sure Dre and Em will dleay their albums even more. I’m most excited for 50,DRE,EM, LUPE, AND CHAMILLIONAIRE

And Chamillionaire does deserve to be on the list, go listen to his Mixtapes. He is the Mixtape Messiah
