The Eminem show? The topic is Hip Hop dude not po musik...this is something serious not that Sesame Street rap
Go into your local music store/high streets music store. Where is The Eminem Show? It will be under ether Hip-Hop & RnB or Urban. So I think NiCoX has a point about it being Hip-Hop...but I don't think it's worthy of a top 10 spot.
Great chart whatitdo but I personally don't think Nas should be on the top spot. Illmatic is a great album, defos 1 of the best, but not THEEEE best! Your No.5 choice is probably on that top spot...but like you said, this is YOUR opinion
surely thats one of the founding hip hop albums that shaped what we got today,
but again its ur call ... but id be tempted to throw that in there too
V.V.
(the streets - stay positive)
Stop dreaming
People who say that are blaspheming
They're doing nine to five and moaning
And they don't want you succeeding when theyve blown it
And your idols - who are they?
They too dreamt about their day
