So need to get upset if your particular favorites are ranked too low for your tastes – if it’s on this list it’s a ‘4-mic’ album at least.
This list is based on personal preferences first, and on factors like hype, cultural impact, and general popularity second – that’s why slept-on gems such as Grip Grand’s Brokelore (2008), Shabazz Palaces’ Black Up (2001), and billy woods’ History Will Absolve Me (2012) can be found higher on the list than classic but generally overrated albums like 2Pac’s All Eyez On Me (1996), Notorious B.I.G.’s Life After Death (1997), and 50 Cent’s Get Rich Or Dy Trying (2003).Īnd remember: Hip Hop has given us THOUSANDS of dope albums over the decades, which means the 250 projects listed here are ALL excellent. Also, no mixtapes, compilations, or EP’s were considered.
‘Only’ albums released between 19 were considered for the list, projects released in 2020 need a year or two to marinate – no doubt a couple of 2020 releases will end up on this list a little further down the road. Over the years we compiled ‘best of the year’ lists for each and every year in Hip Hop history, the list you’re about to get into here is based on these lists – a culmination of sorts. The Best 250 Hip Hop Albums Of All Time? 250? Yes, that’s a long-a** list, and absolutely gratuitous – you might not have asked for it, but here it is anyway.
