3009805, I like the year by year thing you did. Posted by Brew, Thu Sep-27-18 11:25 PM
This will get lengthy. I think that per year, you can probably have up to maybe 3 albums you burn through endlessly to fit your criteria. I tried to do 1 per year but some years I remember absolutely frying a few CDs so I had to put them all in. Still, I narrowed it down the best I could. Obviously some albums were played way more than others but these are albums I recall staying in rotation for front to back listens for months on end, if not longer.
I'll do a list of albums I bought and beat to death upon their release, then a list of albums I heard maybe a couple years after they were released but subsequently, beat them to death as well. Haha. I'm sticking to hip-hop for now, but will hopefully be back later to add some other genres if I remember. Also I skipped a couple years just cause no albums stick out off the top of my head as ones I listened to endlessly.
Real time: 1992 - The Chronic 1993 - Doggystyle 1994 - Regulate ... G Funk Era 1995 - Dogg Food, and still Doggystyle & G Funk Era haha 1996 - All Eyez on Me 1997 - *sigh* No Way Out 1998 - It's Dark and Hell is Hot, Slim Shady LP, Aquemini 1999 - Chronic 2001, Things Fall Apart, Black on Both Sides, I Want It All 2000 - Like Water for Chocolate, Quality Control, Train of Thought (which is the album on this list I've probably listened to the most out of any) 2001 - The Blueprint 2002 - Phrenology, Eminem Show 2003 - Speakerboxxx/The Love Below 2004 - The Grind Date 2005 - Be 2006 - Game Theory, Blue Carpet Treatment, Murray's Revenge 2007 - Graduation 2011 - Charity Starts at Home, Book of David 2012 - People Hear What They See, Life is Good 2014 - PRhyme
Albums I heard more than a year after they released but subsequently beat to death: - Illmatic - BlackStar - Resurrection - One Day It'll All Make Sense - AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted - Efil4zaggin - Safe & Sound - Reasonable Doubt - ATLiens - Buhloone Mindstate - Stakes is High
I'm probably forgetting a few but this list is comprehensive enough lol.
