The Best Hip-Hop Albums of the 21st Century
Hip-hop heads agree: These are the best albums of this century. Kendrick Lamar, Jay-Z, Dizzee Rascal, and Missy Elliott all appear on this list, but who holds the top spot?
(#1 ) Released less than a year after the murder of Mike Brown, To Pimp a Butterfly called out hypocrisies both in and outside the black community. The poetic and powerful masterpiece struck a chord with critics and fans alike.
The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and earned Lamar three Grammys: Best Rap Song (“i”), Best Rap Performance (“Alright”) and Album of the Year.
