Erick Sermon released his second studio album ‘Double or Nothing’ 30 years ago on November 7, 1995 | Listen to the album + read our anniversary tribute by @jesseducker.bsky.social here: album.ink/ESermonDON

Great album. And “Dirty South” is one of the best songs ever.

Cases can made that Liquid Swords is 1) the best Wu-Tang album of all time, 2) The best lyrical album of all time and 3) Among the best albums ever recorded.

Sermon’s second album features outstanding production and dope teams with members of the Def Squad camp and a new crop of artists.

Jay got a lot of flak for the obvious pop appeals on this album, but it really does feature some of his best material.

His 60 point game is the most efficient game in NBA history....he only dribbled like 10 or 11 times.

Here's the newest episode of our Return To Zero podcast. We play some dope hip-hop music, both new and old, and bump our gums a bit about the state of the world. Check it out, give it a listen, and share it with a friend. www.mixcloud.com/returntozero...

Muggs altered his production style a bit for this one, but it’s still true to form Cypress Hill music. Probably my second favorite project by the crew.

Onyx’s second album was their best. It’s bathed in pain and desperation. Great lyrical performances and production.

Fat Joe was hip hop’s most improved player in 1995, releasing his second, and IMHO best, album of his career.

Fashawn released his debut album ‘Boy Meets World’ 16 years ago on October 20, 2009 | Listen to the album + revisit our tribute here: album.ink/FashawnBMW

Who robbed the Louvre? Right answers only.

Both of these 3rd Bass albums are classics, but which one do you enjoy more? album.ink/3rdBassCA album.ink/3rdBassDOD

No other choice. This album forever changed my life.

In the year 3030, everyone wants to be an emcee.

There have been many hip hop concept albums, but very few full fledged hip hop operas. This one is excellent, as Del mines his imagination and teams with Automator and Kid Koala to come up with an adventure in a dystopian future. Update your brain matter, because someday it may matter.

If I have to see another post on here claiming there used to be good republicans and they got replaced by the baddies I’m going to fucking scream. The Southern Strategy was in the 1960s. Lee Atwater was giving speeches to these “nice people” where he just shouted the n word in the 70s

Sure, it may have been sponsored product, but DOOM and Danger Mouse’s collaboration was top tier hip hop.

One of the best hip hop albums of the ‘00s, and possibly the best album that Kweli and Hi-Tek were involved with. Still holds up today.

Game has been longer than the Baby of the Year contest.

Figured has wasn't going to walk, even if he was found NG on the other charges. Four years isn't long enough, but at least it was keep him out of circulation for a while and delays his fake preacher reboot. And certainly the appeals are coming.

AEW champ letting em know.

Blackalicous’ third project was their most focused, grounded, and serious minded project. Both Gift of Gab (RIP) and Chief XCEL demonstrate their continued commitment to being the best in their respective fields.

Kool G Rap had a #1 album with this one

The last Cold Chillin’ album features an amazing performance from Kool G Rap and some top notch production. Great fall/winter album.

Blackalicious released their third studio album ‘The Craft’ (2005) 20 years ago this week | Listen to the album + read our tribute by @jesseducker.bsky.social here: album.ink/Blackaliciou...

We used to call this stupidity. There were smart people and stupid people and we let the smart people do the things they were good at and the stupid people were taken care of and didn't need to worry about what the smart people were doing. But now we let the stupid people think they're smart.

Start your week off right and check out the newest episode of my Return To Zero. Me and co-host Urkel Moe Dee playing some new-ish music and bump our gums a bit. Give it a listen and share it with a friend. Thank you kindly. www.mixcloud.com/returntozero...

i’m one of the few humans who loved this movie from jump. ghost directed by fincher. everyone hated it but us, man.

Just thinking about the fact that if Trump dies, the President is going to be a man who, by rights, should currently be hosting the 873rd-most-listened-to podcast in the country and having to read out five-minute personalized ads for his only sponsor, a canine anal-creme manufacturer.

JFC, this is just a mind numbingly stupid decision. Sepinwall is a fucking institution and GD mensch. One of the best critical voices on the planet.

Happy 35th Anniversary to LL Cool J’s fourth studio album ‘Mama Said Knock You Out’ originally released September 14, 1990 | Listen to the album + read our tribute by @jesseducker.bsky.social here: album.ink/LLCoolJ-MSKYO

Still considered the definitive hip hop “comeback” album. Features some of LL’s career defining music. Favorite tracks?”Eat Em Up L, Chill,” “To the Break Of Dawn,” and “Boomin System.” Also, shout out to “Mr Goodbar” and “Milky Cereal”

An all around great and excellently executed album.

MURS ends his career on Ira strong note with this one. Solid swan song.

Probably my favorite Too Short album. He was having the time of his life while taking a relatively early victory lap.

SC2 is a little unfocused, but still pretty dope. Ghostface is certainly tapping his ass off.

Dylan changed popular music twice in the span of six months. This album is timeless bitter and angry masterpiece.

Not a “decade,” but mainstream rap from like 2001 to 2007 was pretty awful.
