AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted by, like, a lot. I think Skelethon is Aes' best, but this is early Cube we're talking about. I think I voted against it last round, but only on the basis that it was up against Kool G. Rap. But yeah, any hip-hop collection that doesn't contain AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted (and Death Certificate and The Predator, for that matter) is no real hip-hop collection at all.

Skelethon

I don't really like much Political Hip-Hop, so this one is pretty easy.

I actually voted the same way but for totally different reasons. Why aren't you into Political hip-hop, though?

Most of it doesn't vibe well with me. You should know this, Ben. I tend to prefer smoother/"easy going" hip-hop and, well, Political Hip-Hop doesn't to be as smooth.

You know my Political views and the general attitude towards Conservatives in Political Hip-Hop doesn't usually side with the positive. Also, while I love hearing about how people succeed and all, I don't want to feel like I'm being attacked for being white.

I don't want to get in a Political argument on BEA (seriously, it's like a virtual warzone for Conservatives when it comes to Politics), feel free to PM me on Facebook or something as I'm always up or a chat!

Didn't mean it like that at all, sorry man! Not trying to attack your idealogy, just to understand it. Like, for me, it's more about style - I can listen to a religious album or to an album in a language I don't even know so long as the music's still good. So I get what you mean just because attitude wise it's different, I get at least that much.

Sorry if that came around as harsh! With most of the hip-hip in this vein, it's difficult to avoid the lyrics and that's basically where it stems/ends at.
