Dead Prez's RBG drop last year? Or was it this year?
Again, im not sure if Cassidy dropped this year or last, but thats a top 5 for me.
If so, both are in my top 5.
Another dude that dropped this year, Ju-Rock, hes pretty local, from my city, but got some recognition throughout Ohio and the sourrounding states. But his album, Calm Before the Storm, is one of my top five this year.
Kayne's Late Registration is prolly 4th.
And, Ill prolly get shit for this, but I thought Jeezy's album was pretty strong, so I'll put that as 5th.
But, 2005 has been a rather medicore year for hip-hop. What can ya do with such litttle to work with? lol
BTW(I havn't got the chance to check Little Brother out yet, but that has potential.)
