hi i dont listen to a lot of rap r there any recommendations u have . best rap albums of all time ? essential rap albums for ppl new to the genre ?

hi uay<3 so i think theres a lot to be said for a Tribe called quest especially their first two albums i personally love a lot. Excursions was the song that launched my rap era. but also beyond the stuff everyone will tell u about i have to give my fun as fuck album Rooftop soundcheck by Justice system. super sunshiney rooftop jammin funky funk jazzy jazz rappy rap. it does all three of those a whole lot and super well + fun + W + yay + smiling:) super great vibe all throughout it is so intensely charcore possibly my favorite rap album of all time. very very extremely likely. but also speaking of rap albums that also do jazz really well. okay well so i have a whole philosophy abt jazz rap okay. i really love any jazz rap ofc but what i go CRAZEY for is when the jazz part is actually accentuated beyond just Vibes kinda? not that vibes is bad but yk :p anyway i think Shades of blue by Madlib and Jazzmatazz by Guru are to jazz rap what Lizard by King crimson is to the realm of 'symphonic rock'. like a lot of music in the area is just doing Electric light orchestra stuff, basically just tossing some of the instrumentation over to some strings or such. but lizard is like. Okay So This Is Orchestra Music Also. and thats what those last few albums but especially shades+jmt are for jazz rap to me:) so so cool i just go crazy for a nice low end upright bass type of sound with my cool & chill & funky beats. but anyway!!!! i also rec Life's like by Jazzyfact and Home brew self titled and. oh oh my god. this is bad. this is really really bad. ive totally neglected to mention my darling sunshine joy of my life Six feet deep by Gravediggaz... go n listen to my girlfriend six feet deep by gravediggaz.. its like the total opposite vibe of rooftop but still just as funky n fun<33 so so cool. anyway im gonna add the album covers for all the stuff here just bc this turned into a whole big overwhelming (for me at least) wall of text^-^ tysm for askinggg hoping u well on ur rap voyage:)

BT: Do you hear it? (ACT 1)

Previous part

Part 2 of Act 1 // This is a non-voting post, we shall see what decision y’all made

[POV: Player]

You decided to go see the King of Blackrock, maybe he might know something… maybe he might recognise this…

Time to pay a little visit with the guru..

You walked to the front door and slowly opened it (Where are your manners….)

There… sitting in the middle of the tapestry handwoven rug with candles gathered around (Somehow hasn’t burnt yet, what a miracle..) and strong fragrance in the air capable of giving you a week-long migraine… Is the guru in his usual meditation.

He hears the door creaking slowly wide open and there he sees you.

(To make up for your disrespectful entry) You greeted him, smile and wave they say.

He returns his own greetings and spoke kindly…

You make your purpose known plainly; To see the King…

The guru assures he’s present but before he lets you go, he performs a welfare check.. great…. How are you… hero?

Ahh.. Recalling I see? His screams, her attempts, his fall, her tears… What a beautiful horror isn’t it? So much despair in one blink of an eye…

You shake those thoughts off… that voice… it’s nothing.. no…

You assured the guru but he doesn’t buy your pretence, not after what you’ve been through lately… quest after quest… pressure after pressure… it’s bound to drive you insane, won’t it?

The guru is concerned for you and he reminds you how much more important your health is… (If you would consider that is…)

The conversation between you and the guru comes to a stop when suddenly pink mist flows around you…

The scenery changes almost immediately… the guru’s room was gone… you are now in Nirvana…

The scenery sets in and you turn around to see… the King on his icy throne in all his royal majesty and frozen glo- wait is he sleeping—…

Oh.. he is…

You approached him, not even your steps could wake him. He’s in too deep of his hibernation.

You were about to gently wake him but… you hesitated…

What if this was just a waste of time? What if this paper means nothing but just litter?

We don’t even know if it’s related to the Queen or not…

Is this really worth the bother…? He sounds so exhausted…

However you try to convince yourself… maybe just give it a try?

You shook him gently, he stuttered and mumbles like his love is trying to wake him but he refuses…

He finally gives up trying to fight and wakes up to see you.

Slightly embarrassed, he apologies for his heavy sleeping…
