Rank? What? Beatles albums? Radiohead albums? I can name my Top 10 off the top of my head. Favorite 2015 9.3? You betcher ass I'll have it out of my mouth before that guy does.

In all seriousness, though, if we can only play the game with a max of 20 entrants, why not just use the top 20 RYM hip hop albums? It's not like extending it to 50 really left us with some uncovered rare gems or something lmao.

Oh and why are we ranking these anyway? We have 40 and in the order RYM has them. What is the point/next step, Pandu?

You don't get it? Oh well, so we're only doing 20 albums for the REAL DANGER ZONE round. 20 albums will get cut this round based on the ranking.

Round 2
This round, you must rank all these 40 albums from best to worst, I know it's not an easy task, but please don't let this game be a ghost town on its own. You can rank the rest of the albums you haven't heard based on popularity too. Please! Post your order here. In this thread.
