I think it's impossible to rank albums of any genre.
The top 50 or so all blend together. All good for different reasons.

Too bad I didn't see any Handsome Boy Modeling School, Del, or Roots on there.
:thumbsup: on The Beasties

BDP's Criminal Minded has to be on a top ten list.

Tribe's Low End Theory is much better than Midnight Mauraders.

I'm liking these lists - lots of old school stuff. I hate rap that was made in the past 5-8 years for the most part.
