The Most Slept on Album in Hip Hop

Okay so everybody listens to something different, and everyone likes a certain albums that nobody else has heard of/ don't get enough credit.

Here's your chance to rant about which album deserves Most Slept on and why?

for me, personally, I'd have to say Jin - The Emcee's Properganda

yeah he was known for being a battle rapper, and The Rest is History was a semi disappointment (with it having big names in the production such as kanye, just blaze and wyclef)...I feel he really redeemed himself as an emcee and artist, and not just a battle rapper. The whole album was under no label, completely independent...yet it was available in best buy's and circuit city's at the time...His aim was 100,000 copies and I dunno if even made that target. but truth be told, when I peeped the album, my jaw dropped at how clever and witty yet how steady he kept his flow...all but 2 of the tracks were produced by one producer, The Golden Child a 16 year old kid who had a habit of making old school beats mesh with new school jingles. This album was definitely slept on...good tracks were: Carpe Diem, No Concept, Mr. Popular, Top 5 (Dead or Alive).

It should be an album that not alot of people copped/talked enough about, but still a mainstream audience would know of the artist if they heard of them. like that requiuem is no good, maybe if he had a fanbase of like 50k+.... but naw man not like a board members album.
