    Now adding: "Love and Theft" - Bob Dylan

    'Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum' still an odd oening track for me, but it's grown on me and I do love the rest of the album.

    Not 10/10 by any means (granted, the term 10/10 gets thrown around way too much and doesn't apply to a lot of these albums), but I might as well post some of my favourites from this year alone:
    Freddie Gibbs and Madlib - Pinata
    FKA Twigs - LP1
    La Roux - Trouble in Paradise
    Cloud Nothings - Here and Nowhere Else
    YG - My Krazy Life
    Spoon - They Want My Soul
    Schoolboy Q - Oxymoron
    St. Vincent - Self-titled
    Pharoahe Monch - PTSD

    There are a few albums that I haven't had the chance to listen to yet, and some upcoming albums that I'm interested in, so yeah.

    I always kinda preferred Life After Death honestly. Biggie's rhymes were way more advanced on LAD (e.g. he relied on words like “motherfuckin” to pad his verses on RTD from time to time), and I'd honestly argue that Life After Death had better high points. That being said, LAD had a fair bit of filler as well as per the two-disc album norm.

    Both are great albums without a doubt though.

    I dunnno I find the big singles a bit dull after a while (hypnotise and mo money - p diddy was not needed) but stuff like somebody's gotta die and niggas bleed are near perfect it would be better with more like this. I love it though still, but RTD has so many classics right through and much less filler it is a fair bit better imo

    Yeah, double albums are almost always not necessary

    Updating my list here:

    Didn't take long between the time I checked out Animals, and it ended up in my library. WYWH is very close to being in the same position.

    I don't know why (Probably forgot) but Psychostick's "Sandwich" ranks up here.
    I want to put Elton John's "One Night Only" here, as well.

    Holy Bible is brilliant! I wish MSP had more albums like it :confused: Those other four too I really like, so many times I'm listening to hip hop and something sounds familiar and I realise it's been sampled by DJ Shadow ha

    Don't think anyone's mentioned Elliott Smith yet, this album is easily 10/10

    Adding SY's Washing Machine to the revised list, though I'm still unsure how I feel of the band overall it's by far my favorite album [and extremely glad it was the first I purchased.] :grin: 'The Diamond Sea' is an incredible ending, which leaves me a bit disappointed how so-so the final track is on my next favorite SY album so far, NYC Ghosts & Flowers...

    Thought it was about time to update this.

    And I guess I'm still forgetting about a million albums.
