Gorillaz - Gorillaz

Surprisingly gritty album, that isn't afraid to veer into genre-blending territory like a Jeep half-in-the-air, only two tires balancing on the road, in immediate danger of tipping over completely. Thankfully, for the majority of the record, Damon Albarn provides enough consistent direction to keep things steady with his presumably 30-man crew. Hip hop, punk, pop, funk - it's all there, thrown in a salt shaker and rattled until mixed accordingly. Damon's vocals were much livelier then they are ... read more

2 Live Crew - As Nasty As They Wanna Be

Salt-n-Pepa - Blacks' Magic
70
The brightness and positivity in Salt-N-Pepa's music tends to be absolutely infectious, and that's definitely the case on Blacks' Magic. Race, relationships, sex, and more are highlighted accordingly throughout the record in limericky yet reasonable ways, resulting in a return to debut form.
Spice 1 - 187 He Wrote

Improved production from his debut, but could still do better in introducing some variety in his sounds/song topics as they don't always hit. Lot of Redman vibes on this tho, like west coast Redman.
Cappadonna - The Yin and the Yang
72
Surprisingly decent.
Pimp C - Pimpalation
56
While Bun without Pimp would struggle on the production side of things, Pimp without Bun tends to struggle on the lyricism and technical rap ability. Pimp has enough soul and personality to barely stay afloat, but the end product sounds too redundant regardless. So much so that Pimp said 'fuck it' and got a few Bun B features anyway.

Yo Rollo! I’ve been getting inspiration to make another community list in these past few days, and I’ve just thought of a question that kind of interested me to see people’s choices; what’s a song you know that sounds super happy but is actually sad, due to lyrical content and/or backstory? Feel free to ignore if you’re not interested in answering, but make sure to keep your selections limited to 1 or 2 picks if you do. Reasonings are optional :)

Don't get as much love as they should

Albums I've enjoyed that are not available on Spotify. Bittersweet- ideally, you *don't* want an album to be on this list. TOMMY AIN'T MY MOTHERFUCKING BOY.

Plenty of rappers can be hard-carried by their producers, but which MC's can claim to strengthen lesser production through sheer will of dominating vocal performances?
