"Name your perfect rap album."


  

          

I'm revisiting Organized Konfusion's 'The Equinox' and realizing that this quietly crept into my Top Five list. It's got a solid narrative threading through the album, the beats and production are dope, and its Pharohe Monch and Prince Po at the top of their game. Numbers, In Vitro, Chuck Cheese, Confrontations, Suga Shorty, Somehow Someway, Questions -- there's not a song I skip.

Beyond the Illmatics and Ready to Dies, what qualifies as a perfect rap album for you?
