DOOM gets the award for most consistently good, but Illmatic is and will probably always be the best rap album of all time. Aesop Rock and El-P deserve a honorable mentions for taking it where nobody else would... and as far as gangsta rap, Big L, no question

Some love for Big L. He deserves it.

I agree.

Too bad we lost him. He was definitely a great rapper.

Big L is basically the East's Tupac. Got vastly overrated after his death.

His good is reaaaally good and creative with the one-liners, etc....but he wasn't good that often.

I would take a Big L album over Tupac/Biggie album, any day, though.

Potentially the dumbest thing I've ever read. I might give you 'Pac in that argument but even then that's debatable. Ready to Die is easily a top 5-10 album of all time...and Life After Death is potentially better than that if you combine the best songs into just one CD instead of it being a double.

Big L is massively overhyped. His first album isn't even that good, his second is straight up terrible. He was weird in that he was almost always completely on point with his verses but he was incapable of making full albums because he got really old really fast...in his defense for being in ditch he didn't get the best beats either.

His music is perfect if you take his best songs and throw them in the middle of your own mix cd's...when that **** comes on its crazy good but throw one of his albums on and you wanna take a nap.
