I think we could be here for days with that, due to personal preference.

For me it's Stress. In time, probably The Cold Vein, maybe even Hell's Winter (I really liked it).

-AC

Cold Vein is amazing. I though Cage's debut was much better.

Very weird. Either way, that's why I said "He's on Population Control."

To answer the question you did ask though: I don't know if he's been on any other CF tracks. I'd like to hear that though.

Speaking of collaborations, what's anyone's favourite collaboration? Or a collaboration they didn't expect to like, ended up liking.

-AC

Biggie and Bone Thugs N' Harmony - Notorius Thugs

damn good song

i don't think there is.

i dont think so either, i mean perfect is a pretty strong word. i cant think of a single one right now, but it really just comes down to personal preference. theres always at least one song on all of my favourite albums that i dont like as much as the others, be it the beat or the lyrics or both.

all the ones mentioned so far would be on my list for close to perfect though.

I think there is. It's just that with that type of case, it's all a matter of opinion. I don't think it can be a fact that there's a "perfect" rap album because everyone would have to find every track on the album the best of the best. Not always the case.

Like to me, the perfect example of a rap album, out of just a few, is still "Illmatic" & "Ready to Die". Those 2 albums are what really started the current rap revolution, in terms of what heads listen to now..

How MTV said the 5 Greatest MCs are

1) Jay-Z
2) 2pac
3) Notorious B.I.G
4) Rakim
5) Nas

Jay Z @ #1?

Pfft. The other 4 yea..

I'd place Jay-Z @ #5, on that list.

jay-z wouldnt even make the top 100 of my list

i know this question is kind of played out, but who are everyones top 5 emcees?

Personally:

Method Man, GZA, Pharoahe Monch, Doom, Vast Aire.

-AC

my top 5 would be

1. Pharoahe Monch
2. Gza
3. Kool G Rap
4. Deacon the Villain
5. Redman

i was listening to A Piece of Strange and it is an incredible album.

just a quick question, does this Deacon verse of anything to do with the Masonry.

When them lights low and ain’t no night glow from the moon
Scoundrels run towns, no hounds to hunt em down
Keep yo sight low and get your life stole by some goons
Swindlers injure ya, a criminal’s heart’s miniature
Men in the dark paint sinister art in the park
Son of the morning star? Stringin hearts like a harp
Playing melodies of jealousy, felonies strummed by
Hell and it’s philharmonic, bewitching our young guys
“What’s Gone Wrong?”
We no longer seek light to give us power
That voice gets hushed by the rush of the Witching Hour
The touch of the wicked cowards that lurk in the dusk
In even-tide, heathens ride, searching for bucks
Anonymous and corrupt, assure obscurity
In a spell under it’s viel, an impure security
We love it in our spirits ‘cause we’re suckers for lust
Most even **** in it, we’re too ashamed to be just

son of the morning star? i know that the Masons have strong faith in "the morning star" which some say is Jesus Christ or biblically Lucifer

i dont know, i might be entirely wrong.

1. Biggie

2. Tupac

3. Nas

4. Kool G. Rap

5. GZA
