I loved the Wu Tang Clan albums and most of the (early) solo albums from the members (Method Man's Tical and GZA's Liquid Swords especially).

I have been digging out some old Gravediggaz recently.

Dr Octagon's Dr Octagonycologist is essential. Bonkers, psychedelic hip hop.

Yesssssss Liquid Swords is incredible.

Illmatic is no.1 for me, but Liquid Swords is a close second.

DJ Krush is kinda awesome too, sorta ambient deep hip hop. Really nice to listen to at night.

I think the only hip hop track I've heard that actually brings me close to tears.

on the flip side,

this always gives me the feels whenever I hear it.
