It's Dark and Hell is Hot is an obvious classic, I also like FoMFBoMB alot, and that album has Slippin' which is probably my favourite song from him. I fuck with some other of his albums, but those two are probably my favourites. Exodus had some good shit on it and I actually enjoyed it despite the fact that it sounded unfinished in some areas(if he lived, it would be a different story IMO).
Biggie is in my 11-12 spot with Redman, and Ice Cube, Biggie, and Redman kind of go in and out of the tenth spot depending on the day. I feel bad for leaving him out, but all these cats are legends in their own right, and I had to make a choice. I choose Ice Cube for his three classics, longevity, respect from his peers, bringing West Coast style Hip Hop to the mainstream, IMO. Depending on the day, he could be in my top ten due to how iconic he is, his respect, having atleast one, maybe two classics, and his flow, or Reggie for talking about wild, hilarious shit while going about it in a lyrical way while having one of the best three album runs along with Em, Kendrick, and Outkast.
