Only know, like, 2 songs from them (must've watched Hustle & Flow 20 times with my gf back in the days, lol - didn't they win an Oscar for that movie's soundtrack?). Assumed they weren't the album-type of rappers, though to be fair, I don't have any clue about Southern Rap pre-modern Trap, anyway. What's the essential project?

It's gotta be Mystic Stylez or World Domination: Chapter 2, at least for me. Their first compilation, Underground Vol. 1, is also really good. But early Triple Six is insanely different from the mainstream sound that they were known for.

Finally listening to Ka-Honor Killed The Samurai, it's incredible so far, is this his best project?
Which one should I check out next?

Days With Dr. Yen Lo, and The Night's Gambit are just as good. Grief Pedigree and Iron Works are a tier lower, but still worth seeking out.
 
Man, I really wish Jay hadn't limited himself lyrically over such a large portion of his career, I mean he still made classics, but having more content as lyrically dense/original as Lucifer from him would have been great.

Thank's, I'll check those first two out tomorrow.

The Night's Gambit, Days With Dr. Yen Lo and Honor Killed the Samurai are all top 10 minimum for their respective years released. The first two in particular I had in my top 3 those years.

Tuscan Leather is such a great moment in Drake's career. Perhaps 40's moreso, the concept of flipping a sample into 3 different beats on one song and the way it's executed is so dope.

NWTS really was the last time Drake was at full strength. Not ready to say it's better than Take Care (Weeknd's ghost executive producing on that, whew), but I appreciate it more and more every year. Real solid, well-put-together album that has stood the test of time.
 
Listening to The Eminem Show, like do people seriously believe Eminem is a quality songwriter?
Like overall, at any point in his career, even in his supposed prime.
I don't understand this at all.
Edit:
Just finished, that was so fucking bad.

Yeah he was. Slim Shady LP was classic.

Lol this is embarrassing. He is still better than 99% of your faves. Sure he should probably stop talking about ass raping and talk about him being older, his daughter being grown up and other shit, but still way better than most rappers now-a-days.

I can't agree, I don't understand what makes this man a quality or at least remarkable songwriter at all, his technical rhyming ability is my biggest compliment towards him.
Edit: When I wake up I'm going to go through the Rap Genius for this album and pick out examples of my issues with his word choice and how basic/poor the prose is.

Jasmine by Jai Paul, the Sci-Fi remix that's been floating around since GTA 5.

This is has been your monthly Jai Paul reminder, now back to my daily routine of crying and hoping he drops something.

EDIT: Really enjoying that album above. I'll cosign the cosign.

Well it's March, and the Paul's have only ever released stuff in March/April (including the leak) so it's now or never
or next year

Starting to think about getting last years NAO album for the AK Paul production features and starting to make iTunes playlists of some of the best leaked songs and singles
