no.... probably not..... and even if it was....... that'd probably be about a million dollars worth of CD's..... and you would never finish listening to all of them.

Yes its possible. People own billions of dollars why not own hundreds of thousands (since I doubt the number is anywhere near a million) of Cds? I doubt you'd ever listen to them all though.

it all starts with this...how could anyone TRACK how many cds were made? what makes a cd? does it have to have a legit album cover? what about the doods on the street in sf selling their "album" off of cd spindles. cant be done.

i have a hard enough time tracking down cds from Louisiana .. fuck trying to collect every rap cd ever made.

it all starts with this...how could anyone TRACK how many cds were made? what makes a cd? does it have to have a legit album cover? what about the doods on the street in sf selling their "album" off of cd spindles. cant be done.
for my collection if the shits printed on cd-r i don't fuck with it. if they're not gonna put in money/time to deliver a good quality i'm not gonna put my money into buying a cd-r.

and why is this post in GOM anyway?

While of course this is possible on paper, its humanly impossible. Do you realize how many bullshit rap cds there are? Theres no way one person could ever get them all.

NOT POSSIBLE. Why? Because many cd's/albums no longer exist...cd's that are decades old (don't know when they were created) and had limited press most likely can not be found, even w/ the power of money. They'd prolly be scratched the fuck up.

it just isnt, because rap music is pretty broad by definition, u'd just have to make a definite idea of what it is...what about getting like eminem's early ep's and stuff, and other people's.


my number one reason it cant be done is because as soon as someone would think they have every rap album out there, they wouldnt have everyone. how could anyone make a list of every single thing released? think about worlwide releases.


getting every rap album released in the bay area would be hard enough, every single one released ever? no way.
