jeremyrounkles posted:ATLiens is the best rap album of all time.....PERIOD. No joke ATLiens. Write it down and make sure it is in your collection if you do not have it. Also like all GREAT albums (think Spiral) you will need many listens to appreciate. I LOVE this album. ATLiens!!!!! Aquemini and Stankonia are GOOD, Speakerbox/Love.... is okay at best.
ATLiens.....Two Dope Boyz (in a Cadillac)
I've never listsned to ATLiens before now, but from those tracks you posted, it sounds like a really solid album. I guess I like Speakerboxx/The Love Below because that was the album I was introduced to them with, instead of being a fan of their early style and seeing them depart from it. It's a really good album if you're looking at it as a more funk, jazz or.. whatever genre it is, it combined a lot of elements together.
As a Rap/hip-hop album though, it's pretty weak, so I think I know where you're coming from.
