imo, 1 solo album will not be enough to solidify him as top 5, no matter how incredible it is. He may be in your personal top five of favorite MC's, but he has hardly put in the work of HOV, Em, and Nas.
The Love Below is technically a solo album... so that will make it 2 solo albums (the 2nd one has to be flawless) and all the classics he dropped with Outkast.
If Biggie is considered top 5 with just 3 albums (with only 1 of them being the only 10/10 album), then 3k more than deserves it.
If anyone is going to get thrown off the top 5 for having limited solo work, then it should be Biggie.
I agree, I never understood people's obsession with BIG. I still don't feel 3 stacks is worthy either though. I think he's great, but there just is not enough material out there to put him in the top 5.
I would put Outkast in my top 5 Rap Groups though...
