Favourite hip hop album is a toss up between Pharcyde's 'Bizarre Ride...' Or Mos Def 'Black Album' or 'Nation Of Millions...' or '3 Feet High...' or the quite brilliant 'Crying Over Pros For No Reason' by edIT. And I have a big soft spot for the Public Enemy soundtrack to 'He Got Game'.
I'm...
Wu Tang. Great call, SJ. And UK based got to have Roots Manuva. And my all time favourite hip hop tune is Japanese: Return of the Original Art Form by Hiroshi/KUDO/DJ Milo. Unbelievable, this tune. Still blows me away.

It was the hip-hop equivalent of the Sex Pistols Manchester gig.
So who's your favourite hip-hop artist? For me I'd go for KRS-1. Eric B and Rakim running close behind.
