I was simply asking what YOU think the best albums were, and albums YOU will never get tired of hearing. I never said it had to be just old school.

I was generalizing. There def is still hope but as a whole it seems pretty bleak out there.

The prime has come and gone. It's sad but it's the way it is. Still refreshing to hear some new shit that doesn't suck every once in a while.

Look, "top" implies it's selling the most or is the most influential. Let's talk about rap that is just fucking GOOD no matter what.

i completely agree that 99% of new hip hop is terrible, but i must say this album is amazing. Incredible lyricists, and all live instrumentation. In my opinion its the album of the year to say the very least

why that image didnt work i do not know, but it was a picture of ¡mayday! - take me to your leader

im also really into uk rap, its not for everyone, but i just find that for some reason their accent makes them very precise with their wording and their songs generally have an awesome flow, theyre also ridiculously good at double time rapping. Two really good albums to check out in that style are United Colours of Beggattron, and Asylum Speakers, both by Foreign Beggars

Can't believe I forgot and nobody else mentioned the Bay Area legends Andre & Andre! It's not top 5 best or most influential or whatever but it's for sure in my top 5. Either Andre & Andre or Cocaine Raps. King Nicky and Mac Dre are my shit.
