whaaat? there were plenty, cam'ron's new purple haze, ludacris' red light district, bossman has his debut out, lloyd banks (I don't care what anyone says about g-unit, everyone in it's good except tony yayo). all these CDs may not be the artist(s) best work, but it doesn't mean they aren't good!


Cam'ron is a joke. Though Ludacris is very talented, he's become MTV-ized and is a clown anymore. His earlier stuff was much better. G-Unit? I hope you were kidding. The only reason they're out is because of 50-Cent, who's only out because of Eminem. MTV trash is what these "artists" are.

Nothing that comes out today (with the exception of OutKast) compares to the pre-pop days of hip hop (pre-2Pac and Biggie deaths).
