I love plenty of loud and confrontational hip-hop but goddamn The Beastie Boys are annoying. The rest, so far, I rather like.

I missed that! I'm just going to check eBay, see if there's a particularly cheap and virulent can of whoop-ass I can open on fange.

Y'know, Ange, if the passengers get too loud too can always kick them out of the car....

My number 1 lands at 40, beneath the freakin' Beastie Boys ?.Doesn't bode well for some of the lesser known titles on my list...

Thanks for this fange!

It's an interesting list so far, with a number of records- Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, Black on Both Sides, Maxinquaye and Sun Rises in the East to name but four- making my longlist of 40 but just missing out on the 20 I finally submitted. And so far, there seems to be a surprisingly even mix of newish, "golden age" and left-of-centre choices.

This has been fun!

Some cool additions on this second batch, though I'm curious about the inclusion of Speakerboxxx / The Love Below - I couldn't imagine this ranking whilst ATLiens, Aquemini and Stankonia go by ignored.

So are the top five:

36 Chambers
It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back
To Pimp a Butterfly
3 Feet High and Rising
The Low End Theory


Or will the PE/Tribe votes be split (Fear of a Black Planet and Midnight Marauders), allowing for a surprise appearance from Illmatic, All Eyez on Me or Please Hammer Don’t Hurt ’Em?

I'm expecting a Billy Woods top 3.
History Will Absolve Me, Emergency Powers and at number 1 Paraffin, by far the greatest release of the last 5 years. C'mon fange, don't keep me waiting.

If Absence isn't top 5, I'd be pretty shocked. Wasn't my number one though.

Better list so far than I thought, considering BCB's general aversion to hip hop.
Don't fake the funk on a nasty dunk!
