Recommend an underrated but high quality 90s album

Dropped the same day as Pac's Greatest Hits (in November 98) Good album, ahead of its' time. Still pissed "NahNahNah" didn't make the album.

These are good picks

Hands down one of the best albums of the 90's....How the hell could The Source give it 3 mics??

Which version...the official or the bootleg which came first??

Mobb Deeps Murder Musik Bootleg was not only the best bootleg of the year 1999 but it could have been their best album. The retail version is eh! compared to the bootleg version.

I always had a soft spot for this album:



One of hip-hop's smartest, but underrated concept albums:

Loved this album:

If you're not particular about country - Psychological Enslavement by Silent Eclipse. Brand Nubian and PE were fukking with him heavy too.





Maybe the closest thing we had to Cube in the UK

Richie Rich's Def Jam album:





Kokane's first album (where he's rapping, not singing):

A lot of these albums were rightfully acknowledged as classics/good when they dropped. Dig deeper.

Once Upon A Time in America by Smoothe da Hustler is excellent. Hardcore gangsta rap done really well. Smooth could rap his ass off

I swear to god I was just thinking about this album this morning.

Also both Black Sheep albums were pretty dope. Non-Fiction was really underrated, people just weren't expecting a group affiliated with Native Tongues to start spitting hard shyt.

Non-Fiction is prolly one of my favorite 90s rap albums.

Hell, Dres was on Juan Ep and telling his life story, but if you heard the 2nd track on Non-Fiction you knew the whole thing already..... but they didn't even discuss the album.

"it's the Brown Child Hour
Better version of the story
See.... Kanji's the sister. Mother played by Tori.
In the story a kid named Tiki took the cake.
And the greens, and the steak, and the potatoes AND the plate.
Never a dummy. Projections are funny.
See, the first years of my life, I thought that food stamps was money...."

Dres a HIGHLY underated spitter and a real real dude.
