best year in hip hop?

[Butt Rubber]

1994:

nas- illmatic
biggie - ready to die
thug life - volume 1
esham - closed casket
natas - blaz4me
house of krazees - season of the pumpkin
redman - dare iz a darkside
icp - terror wheel


what do you think is the best year?

 

[Pacaveli-T]

1992, 1994 i would say...

 

[Saaphir]

I would say 1996,a lot of classic albums were released that year:
All Eyez On Me-2pac
Makaveli-2pac
It Was Written-Nas
Hell On Earth-Mobb Deep
Reasonable Doubt-Jigga
The Score-The Fugees
Eternal E.1999-Bone Thugs
Midnight Marauders-ATCQ

It was the golden year for French hip-hop too...
Unfortunately,Pac died this year...

infinite came out in 96 too :thumb:

 

[Rosco]

1994 just for me. The golden era is undoubtedly 93-96. Almost every post old-school classic came out in this period.

I would add 'Common - Resurrection' to Robbers 1994 list though.

1996

96' for sure with so many great albums and something that gave the rap some sort of boost. It seems as if it evolved from there on.
