What are some of you guys favorite produced albums ??? What albums have the dopest beats all the way through ???
I'll start with one of my favorites .
NWA - Straight Outta Compton ... The sample game on that shit was crazy !! I still have to bump that album once a week . I hope we can build on this thread , because for me personally , I sometimes put the beat on the back burner to the lyrics , and either miss how dope it is completely or don't really discover it until way later .

First off JB thanks for holding this place down.

Right now, it's me, you, a lone cricket and some lurkers in here but it's the holidaze right about now so whatever.
But the numbers don't lie, a whopping 33 views on this thread = 33 lurkers perfectly capable of building on this potentially cool thread.

Come out, come out, where ever you are and add on people! What happened to Hip Hop Chiq and Beatmaster and Beatlover and Eyegetz and even Uptownkid our long-lost moderator? What about the new members just kicking it and reading this right now?



As far as solid all the way thru HH albums, there's a hell of a lot of hidden jewels out there. I'll toss out a few that are really great solid production from track one onward.



Rocc Marciano - Marcberg





Mobb Deep - Hell On Earth LP





Penthouse Players Clique - Paid the Cost





Organized Konfusion - Stress: The Extinction Agenda LP




^A few obvious choices, some more than others but I can drop a needle on each of these and let it ride all the way thru.

more later...

I'd go with:

Hard To Earn - Gangstarr
The Infamous - Mobb Deep
Midnight Marauders - ATCQ
The X.O. Experience - The Alkoholiks

I think quite a few albums from the mid 80's at that time had beats so good any average mc would've made some noise with it, e.g. the debut albums of Schoolly D, Fat Boys & Mantronix.

After that some personal favorites when it comes to quality beats throughout:

Empd - Strictly Business
Black Moon - Enta da stage
GZA - Liquid Swords
Ghostface Killah - More fish
