[Hollow Dartz]

Yeah 2003 was a great year, I bought Get Rich or Die Trying & Philadelphia Freeway on the same day. That Philadelphia Freeway is damn near classic 4.7/5 lol. Classic Bars and Beats, freeway knows how to make songs. I always say 2004 was the last good year before the dark ages. I feel as though we are seeing light at the end of the tunnel now. 08-11' we were dead in the the middle of the tunnel lol.

[JASPER BEARDLY]

There always been a lot of hot shit. Maybe last great year tho

[check two]

lol @ some of the albums named

[rainbow]

yes, strikingly mediocre list apart from a few.

[rainbow]

vv > anything else that came out that year though.

[TheFunkyDrummer]

Good to finally see some recognition for Vol. 2 Vintage. Some of my favorite instrumentals.

Vol. 2 and Vaudeville Villain are my favorites. BoaP had some great tracks, but the other half is pure garbage.

[TheFunkyDrummer]

I liked 04 better - High Water, Madvillainy, MM.. Food, The Grind Date, A Long Hot Summer, The New Danger, Detroit Deli, The Tipping Point, Beautiful Struggle, Soul Survivor II (not that great, but has great songs) and some I probably forgot.

The Art of Dying, The College Dropout, Ipecac Neat, Boy in da Corner, Kamikaze, Murs 3:16, Pretty Toney Album, The Tipping Point..

Lol not even close. SS II? Grind Date? New Danger? Come on son.

Only album from ones you mentioned is Madvill. Of course a goat. College drop too.

04 thin on the ground after madvill, mmfood, purphaze and c.d. Nothing else happening.

[TheFunkyDrummer]

Soul Survivor II is not a very consistent album, but it has 4 classics on it and that's enough for me.


RZA and GZA on a Pete beat, this should've happened more times.

Fly Till I Die, Appreciate and Just Do It

The Grind Date is underrated. Only a few albums on your list are just as good or slightly better.


Jake One delivering a banger and DOOM is killing it.

Verbal Clap and Much More are classics. Shopping Bags would've been one as well without the corny hook.

[TSA]

lol @ some of the albums named

yeah, easily one of the worst years and eras in hip hop history
