    We were on the same ship when the slaves were checked
    I had to pull your card you was on the top deck
    So I plotted my escape, I saw the Thin Line Between Love and Hate
    And fast from the hog on the plate
    I suffered brutal pains, from whips and chains
    Punishments that were set to wash the brain
    So look listen observe and also respect this jewel
    drawed up, di-tect and reflect this
    light I shine, that cause my power to be find
    through the truth, which manifest through eternal minds
    Purified gases and masses the same elements
    that helped spark civilization classes
    I see brothers quote math plus degrees
    Look at professor ass ni**as can't feed they own seeds</pre>

    Panacea / Restoring Poetry in Mucis (same group) might be the most underrated group out there. Make sure you check out</p>

    Restoring Poetry in Music - Dream Awake</p>

    Also what you talking about on the new LB joint? That shit is H-O-T!! Definatley not on the level of 'The Listening', but a very solid release. I thought as a Justus League fan you would've been feeling the Illmind, Khrysis production, I thought they did a great job on the tracks they laid down. 9th's track was good too (featuring Lil' Wayne too, lol), really feeling Hi-Tek's also.Agreedthatthesubjectmatterwasalittlebit"heardthisbefore",buttheytriedsomenewthingsheretoo.Favouritetrackswouldbe"StepItUp","Dreams","ThatAintLove","TwoStepBlues","AfterTheParty".Veryhappywiththefinalproduct.</p>

    </div></p>

    Yeah I mean I figure I'll give it a second attempt later on, but its not what I was expecting. Nothing really stands out from the pack to me :-(</p>

    This was an incredible album by 50 Cent. And I'm really excited about Eminem's new album thats going to come out.</p>

    </div></p>

    ROFL</p>

    Curtis was absolute garbage, almost as bad as Massacre. You have got to be kidding me if you think this is the greatest hip hop album of all-time.</p>

    I take that as an insult.</p>

    </p>

    </div></p>

    Chill out this thread was made for everyone to post their own personal thoughts on what the greatest hip-hop album of all time was.</p>

    And next time check the replys I never said it was the greatest hip-hop album of all time.</p>

    lol at the massacre being in that group of albums.....Kanye is the best hip hop artist since his debut...I like his work way better than Lil Brothers for the most part. Phonte and Pooh are pretty good....but they don't seem great...Kanye isn't a great MC either...but he has the total package....he has more swagger...his production is on point...and he hits on different subjects...LB does that to, and I like them, but they don't have the replay value I get from Ye's music....</p>

    the listening isn't even their best album so how can it be the GOAT. Minstrel Show is better IMO</p>

    the album in my av>>>>any LB album I've heard</p>

    I'm surprised "Get Rich or Die Tryin'" isn't up here, seriously. while it's nowhere near the Greatest, it's probably the best 50 Cent album he's released.</p>

    Not saying I'm a 50 cent fan, 'cause I'm not, at all...just saying that's his best album.</p>

    and MF Doom is awesome. SUPA!</p>

    I've tried to get into MF Doom, but I dunno, he isnt that appealing to me. Yeah ok, he has the whole mask thing, but his voice is fucking boring, he has the charisma of a stroke victim.Henevermanagedtoholdmewithhissubjectmattereither.He'sagoodMC,dunno,Ijustdontseewhypeopleraveabouthimlikehe'sthegreatestthingsinceslicedbread.IquitelikeMFGrimmthough.As for Kanye, yeah hes one of the better mainstream artists out there, but you put him on a commercial (i.e Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Common, The Roots etc. commerical success, but not 'popular' artists), or underground level, and hes quite a weak MC.HeisafarbetterproducerthanheisMC.

    Doomsday, Vaudeville Villian are his best solo albums and Madvilliany is his best colabo album IMHO...didnt really care much for Venemous Villian.</p>

    I have a hard time getting into him as well. He's too monotonous and there's so many references I don't get when it comes to his lyrics (this isn't really a bad thing, but its frustrating to not know the full meaning of his lyrics). I still listen to him every once in a while though and have a lot of respect for him as an artist. I definitely wouldn't say its his best, but I enjoyed "The Mouse and the Mask" the most (mostly because of the cartoonish beats and the Adult Swim references).

    MF Grimm's "American Hunger" deserves some recognition. A triple-disc that never really feels stale or tedious. I enjoyed that album a lot.</p>
