What albums do you think are underrated till date?

For me:

Take a look over your shoulder - Warren G (most underrated o.a.t.)

Thug Life - (I think this album isnt getting the attention it deservs)

187 um Killa - Eazy E (Huge Classic)

Low End Theory - A Tribe called Quest

The last Meal - Snoop Dogg

Dr Dre presents the Aftermath (what is sooo bad on this album)

Operation Stakola - Luniz (get a copy of this shit its hot as hell)

True.

The last Meal - Snoop Dogg

Ehh...iffy on this one. I"m not sure here. This album is only SLIGHTLY BETTER than the accolades it gets.

Let me add:

I Want It All -Warren G
Better Dayz -2pac
The Eminem Show -Eminem
Cheers -Obie Trice

Don't mean to hate on you Jason but how many people bought The Eminem Show? Thought so.....

I don't see how the Low End Theory is underrated - it is consistantly mentioned in lists of the best albums ever

 

[Zero Cool]

The Eminem Show -Eminem

Compared to the SSLP or MMLP this is a big letdown in my opinion.

Well, you're talking to someone who thinks the SSLP was utter trash.

I loved The Eminem Show...had a much more grown up Em and he started getting more serious with his lyrics.

Oddly enough though I like MMLP better than TES.

Number one, I don't know how many copies it sold nor do I care.

As someone else around here said recentlly "a CD's quality is not only scaled by sales numbers".

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Royce da 5"9-Death is Certain
Jin-The rest is history
Obie Trice-Cheers
Bone thugs n harmony-Reserrection
Bizzy Bone-The gift

This thread is about appreciation not quality so when I question how many it sold it is in regards to appreciation.

My point is, when over 10 million copies are sold, I think you can say a few people have appreciated the album.

It's hardly like a Bizzy Bone album like Heaven'z Movie which was pretty dope but didn't sell well nor is it spoken about often - meaning it was underppreciated.

good list, Royce da 5`9 is full underrated as a Mc.

I have to add

Mac Mall - Untouchable (tight west style)

Ice cube - The Predator (everybody is mentioning "It was a good day", but nobody says something really about the album)

Wu-tang clan - Wu-tang 4 ever (too underrated)

Coolio - It takes a thiev / Gangstas paradise (I never saw that anybody talked bout this albums)

 

[Butt Rubber]

yeah, people were applying that to albums that didn't get sales

i still hear Sing For the Moment on the radio every damn day, thats how highly rated this album was viewed as by the public

 

[DPG iz all I C]

Kurupt - Streetz iz a mutha

Well, I don't know what city you live in and btw, I don't listen to the radio. Haven't regularly since 95, seriously.

For the past 10 years the radio stations in Detroit have been 100% bullshit as far as I'm concerned. That's what I have CD's for.

 

[imported_MAKaveli_10]

I have to say that obie trice "cheers" is quite underrated. It didn't do good because of the first single they put out. It was Got some Teeth. Probably his worst song.

 

[imported_Sun_Tzu]

Slim Shady Lp and Marshall Mathers Lp are the only eminem albums ill listen to.

 

[2PacThug4Life]

Makaveli-The 7 Day Theory , incredibly underated seeing it's pac's best album

 

[VENOMOUS]

no its not.

 

[jason_g_718]

Makaveli-The 7 Day Theory , incredibly underated seeing it's pac's best album

Seeing as how it's sold around 5 million and is considered by MOST Pac heads to be his greatest album, it's hardly underrated.
