Best Hip-Hop Double CD?
- Thread starter kes1111

Wu Forever by a country mile. Wu Forever has the most quality bars compiled together in history. That shit was way ahead of its time.
How the fuck is somebody going to actually compare a solo double cd to a double cd with collective talents, lyrically, with Rza's production?
It's no contest. Triumph is one the of the best hip music videos of all time, 6 minutes with no chorus, and has one of the best verses of all time.
It's 2018, and you still have never heard any double cd of collective talent that sounds anywhere on Wu Forever's level, lyrically. You got 2 hours of music, enhanced with music videos also. Best 20 beans I ever spent, nothing compares. What the fuck else could you want?

Wu-Tang!
that wu forever intro was like the gladiators was getting ready to get back in the arena after years of being apart. i can hear that dude singing right now.
i'm listening LAD right now. out of these double cds nas probably is the most creative with concepts on their album to compete.(3 stacks wasn't really rapping). but shit, somebody gotta die, story to tell, niggas bleed, 10 crack commandments , miss u, long kiss, my downfall.. big was going for the jugular vein with this album.
For ME, hands down "Life After Death"
Man blueprint 2 is nice. But not 2 cd nice. The gift(disc1) every track was great to me. The curse(disc2) was a whole disc of filler. With meet the parents,As one, and Diamonds are Forever being the exception.
2nd this and that's Outkast with a very close 2nd. I admit when I first heard "The Love Below", I was like WTF, Dre done lost his mind. Only because I lost my Speakerboxx CD and listen to Dre's album constantaly that I realized it might be the dopiest shit ever made by a rap artist.
Sidenote...If Nas "I am" album would have been released as a double album, hands down nothing would have fucked with it (the beginning days of Napster for those young folks who don't know...damn 20 years go by fast).
Where's CRU- The Dirty 30
I remember being sorely disappointed after the greatness that is Blueprint
All eyez on me.....
Yeah blueprint is a definite classic. I initially didn't like blueprint 2. Except for the watcher pt2,all around the world and I did it my way. But The gift grew on me.
Dope album but wasn’t a double CD.
Life after Death.
I'm from Cleveland and I agree, The Art of War is trash. But, it was trash because of the crossroads.
The same way Michael Jackson kept trying to recreate the success of We Are the World with Heal the World oh, man in the mirror and songs of the like... Though he was largely successful the worst thing an artist can do is try to recreate the success of their most popular song.
Bone Thugs change their entire Style after the success of the crossroads, Everybody but Krayzie Bone. Their voices raised at least an entire octave. Listen to East 99 eternal and creeping on a come up, then listen to The Art of War and everything after.
God has no place in gangster rap unless you're talking about a friend who died or personal struggle
If I Could Teach the World? Garbage
Not making a Thug Love video Even though Tupac was dead? Ridiculous
Handle the vibe, it's all Mo Thug, clog up your mind, it's all real? A Wasteland of garbage
It didn't get much Pub because they were trying to recreate the crossroads, but my favorite song other than Thug Love was Wasteland Warriors
I was just about to say this same exact shit, bro you are of the same mind. The most important Mark of a great CD, particularly a double CD is are there any tracks that are so completely terrible you only listen to them once or you don't want to listen to them again
The weakest track on the whole CD is the one with Lil Kim. I thought that they were going to be battling something hard and it turned into a joke track. Can you imagine if Biggie and Lil Kim had a track of them pulling a heist together?
There is not one song on that CD that you skip. I wasn't a fan of Biggie Small before then. I heard notorious thugs and bought the album, listened and respected the dudes talent for real.
Ready to die was just okay. It was a sample of what he could be. Life after death was his magnum opus, for that to be his last CD ever... Just wow. He literally dropped the mic with that one

Spot on after Crossroads(and I still say the original version is still better) everything they did got all sing-songy. I hated it.
You ain't lying. The original Crossroads was the shyt.
Even though you gone you still got love from bone my nigga just rest your soul and I see you at the crossroads
Man Tupac and it ain't even close!
