Nas – Illmatic

One word: Timeless. Ten tracks, no skits. Nuff said! 

Sade – Diamond Life

Sade’s smooth jazz tapped into the “quiet storm” era like nobody else.

Teddy Pendergrass – Teddy

Teddy went really deep on this one. That’s probably what she said as well back in 1979.

Rick Ross – Trilla

A novelist of near Shakespearean finesse, Ross’ post-materialistic lyrics idealize romantic love in its purest form. Huh!

J Dilla – Welcome to Detroit

J Dilla added new chapter to the comprehensive book of rap history in Detroit in early 2008.

Freddie Gibbs & Madlib – Piñata

The musical equivalent of Bobi and Tobi, the pairing of Freddie Gibbs and Madlib is as unlikely as it is enjoyable.

Marvin Gaye – I want you

To paraphrase the artist whose name doesn’t need to be mentioned, there has never been anything wrong with a little bump and grind.
