What are your favorite hip hop albums of this millennium so far?

[The Ghost of RubangB]

That's my problem. It was sooooo much better in the 80's. Everything you mentioned plus Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, Beastie Boys, Run-D.M.C. N.W.A., De La Soul, Afrika Bambaataa and Soulsonic Force, etc. etc. etc. I can barely name any rappers after 1995.
