Now I know everyones opinions will vary for one reason or another, but I just would like to sort of compile a list of records that you think helped make hip hop such a big thing in music. Let's please try to keep these lists down to no more than 10 or so albums, and refrain from posting the same record twice. Thanks a lot everyone, Ill start it off by posting just one...
