22. Life After Death - The Notorious B.I.G.

Biggie, Biggie, Biggie....you are quite notorious... One of the best concept albums of all time is a hip-hop album. Fuckin' A! Not only was it a huge success monetarily, it was a huge critical success! I love the way it flows from 'Ready to Die' seamlessly into a massive double album. Street poetry at its finest! One more thing that MUST be mentioned; 'Notorious Thugs'. Who'da thunk a rap artist could dream up Beach Boy-esque intertwining layers? Every time I listen to that high, I SWEAR I hear a new element that went unprocessed the time before.

Favorite Tracks: Hypnotize, Mo Money Mo Problems, Notorious Thugs, Ten Crack Commandments, You're Nobody ('Til Somebody Kills You)
