Pete Rock & InI - Center of Attention
Recorded in 95 but didn't get released until 2003 because of label bullshit. Sounds like a 90s album, tho, and it's as good as most everything else Pete Rock put out in the 90s, so

I brought The Score to a junior high party a long rear end time ago and I put it on and these older kids I didn't know were like oh poo poo this music is awesome you seem cool as hell whats your name, but after a minute it got to all the radio edits since I bought it at K-Mart and they started laughing at me and saying I must not have had my mom around to buy the real version. But Fugees - The Score is very good throughout

Camp Lo - Uptown Saturday Night
whole album is so stylistically solid in a way that rap albums basically never are. there is one vibe and it's good throughout. camp lo also rap in an invented 70s pimp slanguage that is really fun and perfect for the plush seat brougham cadillac mood. i feel like you could do an experiment where a child is only exposed to camp lo language and becomes like... the 'jive' guys in airplane! or something.

Everything Outkast released in the 90s was excellent, from Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik to ATLiens to Aquemini. And then of course into the 2000s, but that's not the topic of the thread.

Just came here to post this! Tha whole drat album. "Sock It 2 Me" ft. Da Brat is one of my favorite tracks and the MV is sick too.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UvBX3REqSY

Her production isn't the best (imo) but Da Brat has one of the most underrated flows in the game.

I slept on Kool G Rap for a long time, his stuff with DJ Polo is right up there with Rakim in terms of having a pretty futuristic flow for the late 80s, and then he’s got some really solid solo cuts too.

This might be my fav, his presence and flow on this track are so tight. Dude was obviously a big influence on Nas but feel like here you can hear Nas’ influence back on him too

Luchini (understandably) gets all the love, but Coolie High is such a vibe. Ski went wild on the production for the entire album
