The Low End Theory
If The Low End Theory isn't at the top of your 'Greatest Rap Albums' list, are you even a rap fan? And don't get me started on 'Greatest Urban Albums'—this is the blueprint, folks. It's like every track sets a new standard for cool and then refuses to explain anything. Try talking about its bass lines without getting into a heated debate. It's impossible! This album is the reason why half of us can't have nice, calm discussions about music anymore.
