Pete Rock - Lost and found hip hop underground soul classics - 2003

Totally OT, but did anyone see where Nicki Minaj is now (allegedly) dating Eminem, 7 years after his Fastlane callout of a "pretty little dame who is kinda famous/Nicki Minaj I just wanna stick my **nis in your *nus" and her new drop "Told them I met Slim Shady, bag the Em/ Once he go black, he'll be back again,"

Not sure if it's a Chris Brown/Rihanna situation or a Faith Hill/Tim McGraw situation, but it's interesting to me in a way that many celebrity hookups aren't.

Also do you really consider Penis and Anus to be words that need to be censored?

Dre. The Chronic.

What about The Chronic 2001?? That was an all around solid album too..

 

[andalusian]

I am not claiming it is a standout album like many mentioned here, but one album that never leaves my rotation is the rising tied / fort minor ,- it just works for me

Aside from Remember the Name and Where'd You Go?, I don't know that I know another song on it, but I love them both.
