What album do you think is amazing, but really doesn't get the recognition it deserves? Here's Mine:

Great album from start to finish. And though the album does get some respect, I feel its greatly overshadowed by Illmatic. This album is in my opinion, better than Illmatic.

There's no way in fuck "It Was Written" is better than "Illmatic!" It's not even Nas' second best album.

Anyway, back to the quustion.....I need more time to think.

I don't see how anyone sleeps on It Was Written... It's in my top 5 albums of all time.

I really can't think of any albums that I love that are slept on. One album that I consider a classic that I don't hear many people talk about though is Livin' Proof by Group Home, that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

Nobody who listens to hip hop sleeps on IWW, everybody agrees that it's a classic.

Not the most slept on off all time but still doesn't get mentioned enough.

All of the albums you posted above are way too recent to be most slept on of all time, not to mention that they were all disappointing and mediocre.

Aight well since most people disagree with my first choice for slept on albums, here's another. I know some don't like it, but I thought it was a great album.

I'll also go with whoever said Pun.

This album is basically what turned me from Casual Hip Hop/Rap listener to full blown Hip Hop Head.

God's Son was a quality album, i wouldnt go as far as to say it was better than Illmatic though. "Get Down" is possibly, along with "one Love" the best Nas track of all time.

Just a few...

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51V4DND43GL._SL500_AA240_.jpg

Killarmy - Silent Weapons For Quiet Wars

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/510QMFB91FL._AA240_.jpg

Killarmy - Fear, Love And War

Killarmy are probably the most underrated hip hop group of the nineties... shined out by the Wu-Tang, but these two albums are amazing... every track is roar with dope beats. Classics...

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/511SYN12CVL._AA240_.jpg

Group Home - Livin' Proof

People on this site don't seem to mention them at all... Great album.

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51hL5Up7OcL._AA240_.jpg

Kenn Starr - Star Status

Greatest album of 06' IMHO, or if not the greatest, the second best... This was mad slept on...

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31kpQzwR1WL._AA216_.jpg

Pete Rock - Soul Survivor

Does anyone even remember this classic from Pete...? lol, so many stand out tracks, forgotten about because of Pete's earlier albums with C.L. Smooth, but this was an excellent album.

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51J52Q6Z8YL._AA240_.jpg

Nujabes - Modal Soul

One of the greatest producers, Nujabes... His other album Metaphorical music was also really nice...

Nas - GodSon
Ghostface Killah - Supreme Clientele (slept on by Cuban Linx and Liquid Swords fans)
Big L - Lifestylez ov da poor nd Dangerous (slept on meaning for me it's on par with the likes of Illmatic and Ready To Die but for most people it isn't)
