Get Rich Or Die Tryin for me is the best produced album I've ever heard

Fabolous-From Nothing to Something

MBDTF is the culmination of years of hip-hop culture finely tuned into a timeless classic. 
Years from now when the hip-hop scene has evolved from what it is now, MBDTF will be mentioned in the same vein as a Blueprint or Illmatic. 

Quote me

So MBDTF didn't live up to the hype because it wasn't "earthshattering" or didn't "transcend hip hop"...what would be the qualifications for earth shattering? Also, if one is to transcend hip hop, wouldn't they have to make music that doesn't sound like traditional hip hop/has a new sound with some notable hip hop roots? I'm just wondering..not over hyping the album or anything, just want to know people's reasoning behind it.

If we are talking about hip-hop albums over the past 10 years then I would have to go with Common's "Be" as having the best production.

I agree, with just about every word.

Be and Almost Platinum round round out my top .
MBDTF is wonderful, All Of the Lights might be my fave Kanye beat ever.

"dreams money can buy" 

"Free Spirit"

"Club Paradise"

I KNOW I'm alone on this one

If you haven't listened to this you should make it a priority.

THANK YOU! You're not alone. Actually, I was probably gonna mention "A Piece of Strange" instead, but this will work. CunninLynguists are still so underrated, it's not even funny. The fact they have a sole producer in Kno helps make a case for them in regards to the topic of the thread, in my opinion. The cohesiveness is there every album. All 3 of their last albums can be mentioned in this thread.

Also, on that note, let me mention Panacea as well. All of their albums have amazing production, especially "Ink Is My Drink." K-Murdock is another underrated producer.

Real talk, I never listened to this guy besides his radio singles.  Since I saw these posts I decided to take a shot.  First track I played on grooveshark was a track called show me a good time.  

, i stick with my Dre 2001 for best production album.  Times sure have changed.  Damm shame too
