#1 - Lupe Fiasco - Lasers
You’re seated at the new three star French restaurant everyone’s been talking about, your hot date sitting across the table. The wine is flowing freely. You order the roasted chicken with heirloom tomatoes and when... Read Full Review

#2 - Raekwon - Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang
I just spent the last hour searching for the perfect analogy to describe Raekwon’s place in the game, and I failed. There just may not be another rapper quite like him. For 16 or 18 years, depending on whether you start... Read Full Review

#3 - Saigon - The Greatest Story Never Told
It was the second season of HBO’s hit show Entourage and the writers had cooked up a storyline that demanded Turtle, the crew’s amiable but always ineffective sidekick, to become the manager of an aspiring rapper. But who... Read Full Review

#4 - Pharoahe Monch - W.A.R.
To be completely honest, I’m having a hard time writing about music right now. In the face of the horrors that are befalling the people of Japan – just before sitting down to write this the Fukushima nuclear power plant... Read Full Review

#5 - Marsha Ambrosius - Late Nights & Early Mornings

Name your favorite Hawaiian rapper. Go ahead, I’ll give you a minute. Actually, I’m feeling a little hungry, I’m gonna go make an eight-layer lasagna, from scratch. By the time I get back I’m sure you’ll have... Read Full Review

#9 - Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday
Hip-hop has never been more Republican. The game’s always fueled intense debate – who’s better, LL Cool J or Canibus? Who’s hotter, Lil Kim or Foxy Brown? Whose man boobs are bigger, Rick Ross or Fat Joe? - but in... Read Full Review

#10 - Joell Ortiz - Free Agent
I’m an OG in the hip-hop album review game. Believe it or not, my first review for the Booth was a full four years ago, when I called Sean Price’s Jesus Price Supastar the most ignorant album of 2007. In the days since... Read Full Review
