Over the last two years of listening to hip-hop, I can honestly say that some of my all time favorite albums, ten out of ten, five stars out of five, are hip-hop albums at this point and are seriously rivaling heavy metal's place in that list in terms of numbers. Wu-Tang Clan's deliciously aggressive Enter the Wu-Tang, Viktor Vaughn's underground gem Vaudeville Villain, and The Fugees call to arms The Score are only a few of my new favorites in a genre that I'm becoming increasingly fanatical about, and my newest (and almost my greatest) find in the genre is OutKast's masterpiece Aquemini.
