I'd say College Dropout, Late Registration, and probably The Documentary. I'm looking forward to a new Kanye CD, and somethin from PAP an Fall Out Boy, if possible Jessica Alba can replace Jessica Simpsons and take over the music industry.
The Detox for sure, but htats supppsoed to drop late 2006 or late 2007? as dre even commented? Food and Liquor is gonna be that album. The raw cut that was laked was already sounding good.
I'm looking forward to the new Nas album, new Papoose album, and of course I been waitin for my boy JR Writer to drop his new album History in the Making, all those albums I mentioned are all guaranteed to be hot.
Method Man's new album 4:21 The Day After. I've heard it's going to be a good album. I wouldn't be suprised if it's album of the year. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">On his upcoming album, 4:21, The Day After, Method Man finds out what happened when he put down the blunt and picked up a pen with a clear head. "The national weed smoking day is 4/20, so I named my album 4:21, The Day After," Meth said in a statement. "Because after that day, you have this moment of clarity when you're not high and you see things clearly..."You feel like you're not in on the joke, and everyone's laughing at you. I felt like no one was taking me seriously. I got real angry and I just starting writing." Out of that moment of clarity came an album full of introspective lyrics, including the first single, "Say," which features Lauryn Hill and finds the rapper addressing critics and fickle fans for disrespecting him. Production on 4:21 comes courtesy of RZA, Scott Storch, Havoc, K1, and Eric Sermon.</div> Source
I love Meth. He's one of my favourite rappers, and definitely my fav out of Wu-Tang. Just looking at the performers he got in and the people he got to produce it, it seems like he's determined to bounce back from a disappointing Tical: The Prequel. I'm looking forward to it.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Smitty:</div><div class="quote_post">Out now: King- TI Looking Forward to: Detox, Doctor's Advocate, Rotten Apple.</div> I didn't like it very much, but if you really like TI then go for it.
Whenever the hell Detox comes out, I'll be sure to get that. Nas - Hip-Hop Is Dead Lupe Fiasco - Food & Liquor Ludacris - Release Therapy Papoose - The Nacirema Dream One of my favorite albums that has come out this year is "Feedback" by Jurassic 5, 10 bucks well spent. Edit: That Method Man album sounds like it's gonna be great. I'm definitely checking that out.
I heard the new Meth is okay, Luda's new single is trash so I don't expect the album to be too good, I haven't checked out that Jurassic 5 yet...I might pick it up.
I can't remember the last time I listened to a Snoop album but his next one looks like it will be an improvement. I found this on wikipedia <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Snoop's new album takes the LBC, native back to his gangsta roots. The rapper told MTV.com his new "Blue Carpet Treatment" album has allowed him to embrace his true nature. "I went right back to the 'hood,'" he said of his album's production. "I took it back to the basics. I've been making a lot of pop songs, lot of R&B songs. Songs that may have made my fans feel like I wavered from what I was naturally accustomed to doing. But I'm an entertainer and I entertain people and that's what I was feeling at the time. But right now, I'm feeling like going right back to the 'hood." Pharrell Williams said the rapper's newest music video 'Vato' will not only feature his gangsta side, but will also tackle the issue of racial conflict in Los Angeles and call for racial unity. Snoop Dogg recently confirmed Dr.Dre had a big input on this album. He produced several tracks and mixed most of the album. One of the tracks that have been confirmed is "Imagine" and features Dr. Dre and is a tribute to Tupac Shakur. </div> Source Confirmed Tracklist <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"Think About It" (Produced by Frequency) "Vato" (featuring B-Real from Cypress Hill) (Produced by The Neptunes) "Candy" (featuring E-40, Daz Dillinger, Kurupt, MC Eiht & Goldie Loc) (Produced by Rick Rock) "So Special" (featuring Brandy Norwood & Pharrell Williams) (Produced by The Neptunes) "Do It" (Produced by Terrace Martin) "I Need A Light" (Produced by Timbaland) "Gang Banging 101" (featuring The Game) (Produced by THX) "L.A.X."

I also like the fact that Dr. Dre has had alot of input on this album.
Vato looks like a pretty good track. Production by the Neptunes and you got B-Real on it too. Xzibit's supposed to have an album coming out towards the end of this year too. Obviously won't be as good as his classic stuff, but I've always been a fan of his.

I'm not a fan of Neptunes beats and who the *&$) is Battlecat? It's like a combination of played-out guys (B-Real, MC Eiht, too short) and new guys that suck (rick ross, wayne). Why can't he just do a 10-song album with Dre and Kanye and be done with it?

I just dl-ed some of the tracks on that list. Vato- It was pretty good. Had a nice beat and sounded more like the Snoop songs that I'm used to. But, the chorus is dumb and B-Real really doesn't add anything to the track. Candy- Kinda odd. Had a simple beat and a lot of rappers. I can see it getting catchy the more you listen to it. That girl's voice in the hook is annoying. And E-40's gay. Goldie Loc's verse was good. The Real Talk- Snoop songs are best when you got a heavy beat that makes the listener ignore Snoop's mediocre lyrics. This one was another simple beat, and I didn't really like the track. There's a few no-name producers on this CD. Bounce- You can tell will.i.am produced this track. I liked it though. The beat was different. My Peoples- Actually liked this one a lot. Good beat by Battlecat, Snoop busted out some decent rhymes. Even through the whole shout out thing, it was good. Felt like it came out of a Dre album. I might end up burning the album. Doesn't look like it'll make me pull out my wallet though.
