Mines is easy, it have to be Raekwon's "Only Built 4 Cuban Linx......."

It was the perfect album, defiently the best solo albums from everybody in the Wu. Raekwon Lyricism was on point the whole entire album, his flow was so sweet, he couldn't be stop on that album. He defined what the 90's was about in that 1 hour. The best songs was "Incarcerated Scarfaces", "Wu Gambinos", " Knowledge God", "Ice water".

Raekwon - Criminology


Raekwon - Incarcerated Scarfaces


Raekwon - Ice Cream


What's your favorite?

Listen to the song "GHETTO Life and BUSTIN OUT"
http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://s.yottamusic.com/i/afO0.6Yqi&imgrefurl=http://www.yottamusic.com/artists/Rick-James/&h=237&w=356&sz=31&tbnid=KqrhgN3AFgUD7M:&tbnh=81&tbnw=121&prev=/images%3Fq%3Drick%2Bjames%26um%3D1&start=3&sa=X&oi=images&ct=image&cd=3
Among the most popular, successful, flamboyant and notorious funk pioneers, Rick James began his career in Toronto, playing in a group called Mynah Birds, which also included Neil Young and Goldy McJohn (Steppenwolf). James played bass with many different bands before landing a solo deal with Motown in the late 1970s. His reign on the charts started shortly thereafter, thanks to supremely funky singles like "Mary Jane" and "Give It To Me Baby." His biggest hit and signature track was the aptly titled "Super Freak," one of the most popular songs of 1981. Blessed with a unique sound that drew from disco, New Wave and R&B, he was at the top of his game as a solo artist and producer in the early '80s, putting together key albums with the Mary Jane Girls, Teena Marie and Eddie Murphy, among others. His own hits continued with singles like "17" and "Cold Blooded," though the rise of hip-hop and his growing drug dependency soon derailed his illustrious career. James was later convicted of felonies stemming from two coke-fueled assaults on women, and spent several years behind bars in the '90s. Upon his release, he cleaned up his act and went back into the studio, releasing his final LP, Urban Rhapsody, in 1997. Though the album spawned no new hits, he made millions off of rap artists sampling his vast catalog; most notably, MC Hammer liberally borrowed from "Super Freak" for his own mega-smash "U Can't Touch This." In 2004, James was back in the spotlight, thanks to a hilarious skit on the Dave Chappelle show, which coined the pervasive catchphrase "I'm Rick James, bitch!" After releasing 14 solo albums in less than 20 years, and producing many more, James firmly established himself as a funk icon on par with legends like James Brown, Sly Stone and George Clinton. He was working on an autobiography and film about his life when he died of natural causes in August 2004. He was 56 years old.

I'm a big Premo fan, but I'm not sure I want an entire Nas album produced by Premo. Maybe half by Premo, and the other half by Pete Rock, Marley Marl, Large Professor, Rza, Kanye etc. As much As I like Stillmatic, Lost tapes, and even It was written, I'm still waiting on a real follow up to Illmatic. I need one more grimey album from Nas in the vien of Illmatic but updated obvioulsy.

Also, since Nas and Cormega are cool again, wouldn't mind seeing a Firm II album with Nas, Mega, AZ and Nature. But that makes too much sense to happen.

I never thought that Marley Marl was a good producer. He was really overrated. As far as a Firm album, the main problem would be getting AZ with Nas. Mega and Nature speak to each other. As a matter of fact Nature is going to be Mega's next album.

Whats up with AZ and Nas? BTW, without Marley Marl, there is no Premo, RZA, Large Pro, Kanye etc. He was the father of sampling and chopping. He produced classics, Kanes "Long Live the Kane", G Raps "Road to the Riches", Biz Marks first joint, LL's "Mama said knock you out", some joints off Lords of the underground.....And the greates posse cut of all time "Symphony".
