Everybody has opinions about who the best rappers, albums, songs, etc. in the history of hip-hop are. Rappers weigh in on the subject not infrequently and last night, Ice T made his contribution to the conversation on The Tonight Show. During a segment called “Ice T Settles It,” Jimmy Fallon asked Ice a series of rapid-fire questions and eventually, he tasked Ice with making his pick for the greatest rap album of all time. He seemed intrigued by the question, giving an “ooh” after he asked. Ice didn’t take long to give his answer, though, replying after only a short delay, “I’ll say Paid In Full by Eric B. & Rakim.” Fallon asked Ice to elaborate and he continued, “‘Cause that was the most influential album to me when I was making my album.” He also offered his No. 2 and 3 albums, and like Paid In Full, they’re also from the late ’80s and early ’90s, when his own music career was at its peak. He continued, “I’ll say Fear Of A Black Planet [by] Public Enemy would be a close second, and then Straight Out Of Compton, NWA, would be top-3. But each one of those albums had a lot to do with influencing me as an MC. But when I heard Rakim, I had never heard nobody rap like that. And it was so many hits on that album. Get Paid In Full and you’ll bang it all the way to the house.” —Derrick Rossignol, UPROXX Follow @inkagnedotv . . . . . #ellen #logic301 #eminem #joeybadass #westcoastrap #oldschoolhiphop #rattpack #mtv #thetonightshow #lizzo #ellenshow #wutangisforthechildren #hiphopvideo #rip2pac #miley #hip #hiphopnation #adamlevine #oldirtybastard #kardashians #gigihadidnews #drewhouse #icetray #ladygaga #rihanna https://www.instagram.com/p/CcsrqLGLwAF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

2Pac - Me Against The World

June 16th would’ve been the 47th birthday of the immortal Tupac Shakur. Against all odds, Tupac rose to fame, had a number one album while incarcerated, recorded 5 solo albums, 1 collaboration album, and left behind enough material for 6 other posthumous albums. He was also an incredibly talented actor that stole every film he was in and no doubt had many great performances ahead of him. Most importantly of all, in his 25 years on this earth Pac managed to inspire generations of people of many ages and classes are taught on his poetry and body of work. What other way was there to cap all of this off than to become the first solo rapper to ever be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame in his very first year of eligibility. Most importantly to ME...the man spoke to me. More skilled mc’s have walked this earth but I never felt a single one of them the way I felt Tupac Shakur. I have been buying music across formats since I was a small child. The very first CD I ever bought with my own money...”2Pacalypse Now.” Happy late birthday and R.I.P. 2Pac. I can’t help but think you’d have a ton of real wisdom to share with us all on the state of our country and world... #nowspinning #vinyl #vinyligclub #vinyljunkie #vinylcollection #vinylcollectionpost #vinylcollection_feature #vinylcommunity #vinylcommunitypost #vinylcommunity_feature #vinyloftheday #vinyllover #vinylgen_feature #recordcollection #deathtodigital #digitalsucks #happinessisloudtunes #happinessisclassichiphop #therevolutionwillnotbedigital #vinylisforeveryone #2pac #rip2pac
