I have to go BDK at 1, Slick Rick at 2, PE at 3, EPMD at 4, NWA at 5.
2,3,4 and can be switched around in any order and I would probably agree.


 
What your list look like ?
Most of what you got on your list along with Eric B and Rakim, Biz, RUN-DMC. The Radio stations were rockinong most of what I liked so I taped most shows like every other kid in the city back then. Don't think I knew most names except what I mentioned along with LL and Fresh Prince.
 
I'll have to go with the one that broke barriers, boundaries and is started a new era that's still influencing todays rap music up until today.

NWA.
 
I was into Miami booty music in '88, so I can't really rank any of them. Of the ones listed the only full album that caught my attention was NWA.
 
Definitely a dope album but NWA's album changed everything.

NWA's album had everyone saying "Fuck tha Police". :lol:

I was a senior in HS and played baseball, our pitcher was mexican from cali he had the tape. We would play that shit at practice and make copies for everyone our team.
 

I was 7 and just came to America in 86 from jamaica
Discovered video music box from this kid two years older than me that went to the same baby sitter, homie was way advanced to the rap shit, we used to go in the garage and the baby sitters nephew had the biz vapors vinyl and we used to have that on repeat.

I was HOOKED to hip hop culture after that, the flat tops, rope chains, four finger rings, nike, dapper dan, jettas, beamers, and benzes with the kits Them days you had to catch rap on the radio and tv when you could and i would be damned if i missed either.
