there’s a few records i don’t know that well but what i do know is excellent. 4
4.10 Not bad, that.
Well deserved
Thanks for this. I’ve didn’t know that Buhloone Mindstate Sessions was a thing, so I’m pretty excited about that. Will be listening shortly!
Between Wu Tang and Public Enemy, happy with that!
Thanks, man. Which bit were you sighing at exactly?
Trying to think which hip hop acts we haven’t done yet who would potentially go higher than Beastie Boys.
ATCQ and The Roots might be the last ones that can really bother the upper reaches of the charts here. Particularly if Biggie is worth a 3.37
ATCQ. Eric B and Rakim maybe.
Limp BIzkit
Gang Starr?
Would they get the votes though? Nas maybe?
ATCQ definitely would. EB&R probs not.
Nas has released far too much crap. Throw in some unsavoury allegations and he’s a 3.5 waiting to happen.
Nas only made one album sadly, so probably not worth doing.
Agreed. And I don’t think even those guys would be able to topple the Beastie Boys.
If you wanted to do individual members of Wu Tang then maybe GZA or Ghostface?
Otherwise someone like Missy Elliott or Lauren Hill (that one isn’t strictly hip hop I’m aware)
On the list, can never decide if she’ll get the votes in.
Oh or we let the white dudes do battle and give EL-P’s solo and production work get a go?
(5 btw)
I think she’d do well but maybe not 4.36 well. Sometimes having less votes works in your benefit though
Aesop Rock and El-P (maybe somewhere down the line since we just did RTJ) would both do well. Death Grips should at least be an entertaining thread. Think Danny Brown could just about carry one and get a good score. NWA/Dr. Dre? Gang Starr? Madlib might carry one after his latest album comes out?
