yes indeed whatever. That's your opinion that it's not a collab.

But my opinion is that it is.

We will just have to agree to disagree.

All really good recommendations thus far.

I'm gonna say Slaughterhouse just to get it out of the way.

Sadistik's album 'The Balancing Act' is entirely produced by Emancipator, so I suppose you could go someway to call that a collabo. If not, Sadistik & A Kid Called Computer - The Art of Dying.

DJ Dangermouse & Jemini - Ghetto Pop Life
Dangerdoom (MF Doom & DJ Dangermouse) - The Mouse & The Mask

Remember when, MF DOOM & Ghostface Killah were supposedly doing a collaboration album? Wonder what happened to that.

The Nas & Damien Marley album is aight too.

To add flame to the fire, in my opinion Gangstarr isn't a collaboration, there a group. Sure primo might've been producing for other artists before and during Gangstarr, but the main focus & bulk of his work focused on Gangstarr and Gangstarr itself is the combination of Guru & Premier. It's not Guru's album produced by preem, there just as much a part of the overall group as each other.

Oh & Monster Island Czars, another of DOOM's many collaborations!

I've thought of a few more too:

EMC (Masta Ace, Punchline, Wordsworth, Strick)

The whole album is one of the better concept albums I've heard, and it's pretty much fresh all the way through.

pitchfork:
"File under “dream collaborations”: reclusive rapper DOOM recently told Australian music magazine Super 3D that he and Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke are collaborating and might make an entire album: “We’re working on some duets, some duet songs and ****. Just like preliminary **** but we’ll probably end up doing a whole record together.”

Who's excited?

Actually, if I remember correctly, The Balancing Act wasn't entirely produced by Emancipator.

I will give it a listen but I'm not excited as you may know by now that I think Radiohead is overrated.

I'm the least excited, as I think Radiohead and MF Doom are both overrated.

MF Doom is average in my books but I wouldn't go so far as to say he's overrated
