IDK, pretty basic. From Guns n Roses to Snoop Dog to "that popular Metallica album". Not bad by any means, just not very appealing to me. It would've certainly helped if you had descriptions, it's much more interesting that way. On the other hand, Beastie Boys, Coltrane, Public Enemy and some others are very fine choices

Good job recognizing all the hip-hop classics, even if you skew towards the west coast (ain't trying to beef, but Don Killuminati over Ready To Die? damn, man). Interesting bits of metal here and there too; you like Body Count?

This really is the 1st chart where I have no idea what score to give. I'm not into hip-hop so it was no, no, no whilst running through the chart, then you throw in Metalica or Jimi & it's yes, yes, yes. Interesting chart for that reason but still confused about a score. I need to lie down in a darkened room for a while to think!

Good pick with the Wu Tang number one but the Marshall Mather's LP at 31?! needs to be top 10 at least if this is a rap/hip-hop list...
