Chino XL - Here to save you all
Jedi Mind Tricks - Psyco Social LP
Witchdoctor - SWAT

the list is endless

indeed.

Az - Do or Die

I’ll have to check those out, thanks for putting the spotlight on some slept on albums OP. I’ve seen Chino’s lyricism held in high regards online, and Servants in Heaven by JMT is one of my favorite albums. Witchdoctors verse on The Coming with Goodie Mob was dope, and his project must be of high quality if he’s under the Dungeon Family umbrella

yeezus

Even tho im a sucker for JMTs homo-phobic lyrical content they used later on - the first album was more esoteric knowledge stuff and that hits the spot aswell.

I’ll have to peep it when I get the chance, thanks man

Nocturnal - Heltah Skeltah

wow I was literally just about to post this

Great for late night driving

Their albums after this are piff aswell.
Same goes for the Boot Camp Click as a whole

Also some underrated gems are

Black Moon - Enta da Stage
Dogg Pound - Dogg Food
Kurupt - Streetz iz a Mutha
Evidence - The Weatherman
Jacka - The Jack Artist
Cormega - The Realness
Smif-N-Wessuns debut album

So many dope albums man...

For real, the people on this site literally only talk about the first 2 tiers of rap albums and then just relentlessly s*** on them.

Heiro in general
Nujabes and fat jon l.p.s
Pete rock - petestrumentals 1-3
Ice Cubes group - Da Lench Mob albums (Fight the power type toughness)

Apollo Brown & Hassan Mackey - Daily Bread
Apollo Brown & Guilty Simpson - Dice Game
Fashawn - The Ecology

Day69 tbh. Classic mixtape

Good shout on the Witchdoctor album. Last year I saw a random page of The Source that had him on a hot list. Checked out SWAT. Crazy style for his time.
