A Response to MTV's Greatest Hip Hop Albums of All-Time Picks pt 1 by: Davey-D

A couple of weeks ago some of the good folks over at MTV set off a
firestorm of sorts when they got together to discuss the Top 10
Greatest Hip Hop Albums of All-Time. With Hip Hop being over 30
years old and arguably the most influential music genre in the world
and throughout history, this was a daunting task. After speaking
with fellow music writers Shaheem Reid and Rahman Dukes I came to
understand that it took several weeks of intense, spirited
discussion before they were finally able to complete what they felt
would be a definitive list.

Shaheem explained that what sparked this project was 'an innocent'
discussion over which Notorious BIG album was better 'Ready to Die'
or 'Life After Death'. Soon other music staffers including Sway,
Tone Boots, Buttahman and Bridget Bland just to name a few were all
involved, butting heads and discovering everyone's true Hip Hop
colors.

Now, many of these people I consider friends, who I highly respect,
especially Shaheem who I consider one of the best music writers
around. Producer/writer Rahman Dukes who pens their Mixtape Monday
column is well respected throughout the industry and I consider him
to be incredibly insightful. However, I have to be honest there
were some egregious mistakes and glaring omissions made at the end
of day when they published the final list.

Here's what they listed on their websites for millions of people
around the world to see

10-Public Enemy 'It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back'
09-Tupac - The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory
08-Ice Cube - Death Certificate
07-N.W.A - N---az4life
06-Jay-Z - Reasonable Doubt
05-Run-DMC - Raising Hell
04-Notorious B.I.G. - Ready to Die
03-Dr. Dre - The Chronic
02-Nas - Illmatic
01-Eric B. & Rakim - Paid in Full

Last week I was in New York and stopped over at the MTV offices and
chopped it up with Dukes and Reed. We discussed the list. I
listened to some of their reasoning and rationale for doing what
they did. They told me that they looked at key attributes like
creativity, originality, skill level and overall impact when
compiling the list.

Right then and there a red flag went off in my head, because as some
of us veterans would know any one on an All-Time Top 10 list will
have originality, creativity etc. The only thing we should be
looking at is overall impact. In other words when looking at a
collective body of work that spans over 25 years (Hip Hop's first
album was released in 1980), we want to continuously ask the
question, "was it a milestone?' 'Did it live up to the standards
that Rakim set and 'Move the Crowd?' But let me not digress.

During our discussion I came to discover that initially 2Pac did not
make the list and the group had to make a compromise to include him.
Needless to say I was shocked. 2Pac has sold more then 40 million
albums-How could he NOT be on the list? He is the only artist to
have University classes all around the world devoted entirely to his
extensive body of work. When he died they closed down the stores
and nightclubs in many of the cities in countries like Ghana.
Everywhere you go around the world there are tributes and murals
dedicated to Mr. Shakur. Why was there a compromise to put him on
the list?

When I heard that Pac was not on the list, I discreetly scanned both
Duke's and Reid's desk for signs of alcohol. Was there an empty
Hennessy bottle tucked away somewhere? "Is Jack Daniels an intimate
friend? I did check with Reid and he admitted that occasionally he
converses with Mr. Daniels but he insisted that it did not influence
his decision making.

During their discussion about Nas' classic album 'Illmatic' I came
to find out that first, there was even some discussion and second,
phrases like 'His album was just ok' were casually being bantered in
the room. Hearing this, of course raised another red flag as that
was just straight up pure blasphemy. Within Hip Hop there are some
things you simply do not question. Illmatic is one of them.

I also came to discover that Jay-Z the 'Jigga man' himself called
the MTV offices saying he appreciated the list but felt his album
'Reasonable Doubt' should've been placed higher. Now I love and
respect Jay-Z like the next man. He is definitely one of the best
emcees to ever bless the mic. But 'Reasonable Doubt' better then
'The Chronic', 'Illmatic' 'Ready to Die' or Public Enemy's 'It Takes
a Nation of Millions'? C'mon now. We will have to check Jay-Z for
signs of 'libation abuse next time we see him...

When discussing the decision to have Public Enemy come in at Number
10, and why the MTV folks didn't include anything by KRS-One,
Wu-Tang or X-Clan I was left feeling a bit uncomfortable. First, I
wanted to make sure that the esteemed gentlemen sitting in front of
me were really the ones who have been writing their columns for all
these years. Did they have ghost writers penning their columns? I
wanted to know if they had bosses and other higher ups that were
censoring them and for political purposes forcing them to take a
certain position. I also wanted to know if they were being paid off
like political pundit Armstrong Williams. I was assured that
everything was on the up and up.

Again the red flags came up, which led me to check people's IDs. It
was obvious to me that as talented as some of these MTV writers are
they are still young, meaning under 30 and not fully seasoned.

Their under 30 age would be later confirmed. Which explains a
lot... You see, what we had here at MTV, were a number of writers
engaging in what is essentially 'Grown Folks Bizness'. Through no
fault of their own, there was no way these respected wordsmiths
could fully appreciate and truly understand what it meant when some
very important landmark albums came out. They were simply too
young. They are victims of bad timing. We will have to
respectfully place blame on their parents for not having them a few
years earlier.

Now as a Hip Hop elder who has been in the game since 1977 and have
lived on both coasts when Hip Hop was emerging, I felt it was my
duty to first, say a prayer for my fellow music critics. 'Forgive
them Oh Lord, for the music staff at MTV, know not what they did
they are too young to know better.

Second, it is my duty to guide the young and show them the error of
their ways. So without further ado here is the definitive Top 10
Greatest Hip Hop Albums of All-Time to which I proudly attach my
name.

10-De La Soul 'Three Feet High and Rising'

How could one over look the Posdanus, Trugoy and Mase? Many look to
the extra-ordinary creativity, musical depth and sampling genius of
producer Prince Paul behind this landmark album as not only the
introduction to the Daisy Age, but also the start of Hip Hop's
current 'Underground, Backpack movement. Simply put this album had
major impact.

Younger critics may not recall that what made De La Soul so
significant was the fact that they came out at a time when everyone
was either demanding that we yell 'fight the power', 'fuck the
police' or 'gangsta gangsta'. In retrospect it took a lot of balls
to come out at that point in time talking about 'Welcome to the
Daisy Age'. In fact when De La first dropped many people considered
them soft, but that soon faded away when we took a closer listen to
the musical complexity of '3 Feet High and Rising'. They had pushed
the envelope by digging in the crates and sampling everyone from
George Clinton to Hall and Oates to the Carpenters.

Folks may recall how they left many a seasoned Hip Hop producers and
record finders perplexed for years when they boldly challenged us to
find out the song they used as a sample for their first single 'Plug
Tunin'

De La Soul's '3 feet High and Rising' was years ahead it's time.
Not only does the Underground Backpack Movement owe them a great bit
of gratitude, but so do all those producers who came through and
decided to add humorous audio skits to enhance their album. We have
to respect these architects for that.

Lastly De la Soul gets props for a unique marketing approach that
was unheard of at the time. They would release different versions
and unique b-sides of particular songs on their 12" singles thus
forcing deejays to run around searching high and low to find
particular songs and tracks to rock at clubs. I.e. 'Mack Daddy to
the Left.' In other words De la Soul made many of their records
collector items ala Prince.

09-Wu-Tang Clan 'Enter the 36 Chambers'

When I looked at MTV list and saw that the guys from Shoalin (Staten
Island) were not included, I was flabbergasted. Had I not been a
visitor to their offices and wary of the fact that Rahman Dukes is
bigger then me, I might have thrown a few chairs around to make my
point. No All-Time Hip Hop List should EVER leave off Wu-Tang.

These guys are hands down the greatest emcee crew to ever bless the
stage. They were Hip Hop's ultimate ensemble team. Not enough can
be said about the Wu and the impact they had on Hip Hop.

First, they once and for all made the world be very aware of Staten
Island (Shaolin) much like NWA who changed our understanding of
Compton several years prior. Folks in NY and beyond were left with
a full understanding that cats from NY's 5th borough were no joke.

Second Wu gets major props for bringing to the forefront an often
underplayed influence to Hip Hop culture-martial arts. In the 70s
the whole b-boying craze was highly inspired by the Bruce Lee movie
all of us would eagerly go see. Wu brought that back. On a side
note Wu-Tang because of their name and the fact that many people
especially those outside of NY did not know who they were,
indirectly opened the doors and help shine some important light on
the contributions of our Asian brothers and sisters within Hip Hop.

I recall when their first single 'Protect Ya Neck' came out; there
were more than a few cats who ran around awestruck that these 'Asian
rappers' could spit such heat. It made a lot of folks suddenly pay
closer attention to the Hip Hop scene in places like Japan which
were blowing up. A lot of Asian cats felt inspired to step up their
game when Wu first dropped. By the time folks discovered the Wu
members were black, it did not matter cause their constant
references to various aspects of Far East and Asian culture had
permanently opened the door and made those of us who weren't Asian
to be a bit more receptive.

Third point, a whole lot of folks back east especially in New York
owe the Wu big time. Many of y'all may recall that around the early
to mid 90s New York had lost a lot of shine. West Coast gangsta rap
was the order of the day and New York had lost alot of its street
cred. Wu-Tang changed all that in a big way. This 9 man Killer Bee
army brought to the table serious, unheralded rhyme skills along
with unquestioned alignment and insight to east coast hoods-which
was surely needed at the time.

To be honest with you, Wu in many ways opened a couple of doors.
First, they raised the level of freestyling and rhyme aesthetics.
They also made it very clear that you could be street and still have
serious flow. The Wu also gets props for showing us all how a crew
of emcees can come together and get their flow on and still make
sense.

Second, as quite as kept the Wu opened the doors for east Coast
artists like Notorious BIG and later Jay-Z. Folks forget that the
Wu came out before those guys did. I'm not sure if we would've
bothered listening to Biggie had it not been for Wu-Tang who really
brought the light back to New York

Two last points about the Wu. First RZA brought serious production
skillz to the table that I think goes under appreciated. Today we
talk about the brilliance of producers like Kanye West, but true Wu
fans know that long before Kanye made a name for himself speeding up
the hooks to old classic soul songs, Rza had him beat by at least
ten years. No disrespect to Kanye, but we must respect the
architect.

The other point we need to give Wu credit for is being the first
east coast act in a long time to come along and impact the industry
by having all their artists go off and do successful projects. Now
to be honest we had MC Hammer, NWA and Digital Underground had all
done this prior to Wu. They had their members bounce off and do all
sorts of side projects. But Wu took that to a whole other level
which has been unmatched to this day. Meth, Raekwon, Ghostface,
ODB, RZA all went on to deliver classic solo projects. We won't
even start talking about the impact that the extended Wu family had
on the rap scene. Bottom line the Wu is to be respected at all
times... and 36 Chambers is the ultimate personification of this
Hip Hop collective.

08-Lauryn Hill-'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill'

Yes, I know there are some that will vigorously argue that this was
not a Hip Hop album because Lauryn Hill sings on many of the songs.
This is where we have to pull out our Hip Hop elder card and educate
the young grasshoppers. Make no mistake that Lauryn Hill is a Hip
Hop artist and that her album which won like 5 Grammy Awards and was
nominated for 11 was an incredible Hip Hop album. Singing has
always been a part of Hip Hop. Back in the early days all sorts of
landmark groups went back and forth from singing on one verse and
harmonizing and singing on the other.

Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, The Cold Crush Brothers, The
Crash Crew and of course the Force MCs who later became the Force
MDs all perfected this skill. Other groups who like Full Force and
UTFO also went back and forth. So how are all these groups be
considered Hip Hop and suddenly we flip the script on Lauryn Hill?

Now let's talk about overall impact, Lauryn Hill picked up where
fellow New Jersey rapper Queen Latifah left off in terms of how she
inspired and empowered women. I don't know one sista who was not
running around bumping Lauryn Hill saying how much she was such a
breath of fresh air. Songs like 'Doo-Whop-That Thing', Zion,
'Everything is Everything' and 'Lost Ones' were songs that you can
not deny. And lets be honest she raised the bar in terms of
bringing substance to the Hip Hop game at a time when so many people
were talking about 'Getting Jiggy'. The only thing we can criticize
Lauryn Hill is not coming back and giving a yearning public some
more to chew on. Was this the reason my MTV brethren left her off
the Top 10 All-Time Greatest List? NWA's 'Niggaz 4 Life' vs.
Lauryn Hill's 'Miseducation' you tell me which had more impact...

In my next column we will go through albums 7, 6, 5 as we count down
the Definitive, Ultimate Top 10 Greatest Hip Hop Albums of
All-times..
