what do y'all consider "essential" listening for a hip-hop head?
E.g., "They Reminisce Over You" by Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth is something all hip-hop heads should not only have heard but, if they have a soul, enjoyed.
List, and preferably link, your suggestion to this collection.
I think we should put a poll with each recommendation a simple 2-option poll to vote yes or no as to whether we agree that it is essential listening.
Depending on the level of involvement we can decide what percentage or minimum number of votes qualifies something as definitively-essential or not.
What do y'all think? We could come up with a nice li'l list of good music and for some of us get exposure to stuff we haven't heard previously.
