Quick post to list what is quite possibly the most prolific group of albums/artists to drop in one blissful three-year period of time: 1993-1996. This is known among purists as the Golden Age of Hip-Hop. This collection has it's own playlist in my iPodThey are in no particular order:

  • ATLiens - Outkast
  • Midnight Marauders - A Tribe Called Quest
  • Ready to Die - The Notorious BIG
  • The Chronic - Dr. Dre
  • What's the 411? - Mary J. Blige
  • Enter the Wu Tang - Wu Tang Clan
  • The Score - The Fugees
  • Reachin' - Digable Planets
  • All Eyez on Me - Tupac Shakur
  • Faith Evans - Faith Evans
  • Diary of a Mad Band - Jodeci
  • The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill - Lauryn Hill
  • Mr. Smith - LL Cool J
  • The Infamous - Mobb Deep
  • Illmatic - Nas
Feel free to comment/debate; this subject always brings that out, and you'll never get a consensus. That's what bloggging's about though, the lost art of conversation.
