i'd have to say documentary by singles,hype,beats,flow and creativity also subject matter and persona.the black rob report came close also cus that nigga can paint a story and its madd slept on.the rest of those albums i didnt purchase and where good maybe couldave been better.

 

[FaisalHabib87]

Chamillionaire and Bun b's album's are mainstream?
I live in the UK and up here there has been no talk of these albums and their singles havent made it to tv either.

 

[DPG iz all I C]

Late Registration

 

[Confucius87]

The Game - The Documentary

I've said this when it came out, and I'll keep saying it. This album is a classic. Flow, content, production, everything is on point to a T.

*NOTE: You should really add Juelz Santana's What The Game's Been Missing to that list. Not that it's the best of the year, but it's better than most of those posted. A underrated album IMO.

(but an honorable mention should go to Beanie Siegel for The B. Coming. I was flat out surprised by the talent he displayed in this album)

be

intro alone worth price of admission kids.

 

[Get In The Van I Have Candy]

^no thanks grandpa.

My vote goes for Game - Documentary with a very close second to Kanye's album.

 

[Da_Funk]

Why do people say the documentary is the album of the year? just wondering as I thought it was pretty bad.... On that note tho i'd say Kanye's Late Registration is the mainstream album of they year.

 

[houseofpain]

deffinetly 50 cent album that shit changed rap...with beefs and shit no doubt

 

[Big Flipp]

I would have to say kanye. I can't believe how many people are saying be. It is an alright album and common comes real nice but I just do not like the sound. I like kanye but I really do not like what he did with common.

 

[Advocate]

common - be


FUCK KANYE + 50

 

[Big Flipp]
