It hasn't been confirmed that's the number meaning though, right?

 

[supahypeag]

7th son of a 7th son - Iron Maiden. It's more hip hop and political than you remember

 

[Jdiddlydawg]

Uh guess I'm going with Black on Both Sides again

 

[frodo-pkt]

It won't be it, but I really would like CNN - War Report.

90s hip hop
1st album (if 1 is album number)
1997 (if 7 refers to year in decade)

Of these artists, only Isaac Hayes and Curtis Mayfield put out their seventh albums in the 70s. (Stone does not work because you cannot count the albums with the Family Stone.)

But what are their seventh? Should we include soundtracks and live albums?

If we include Shaft, then Joy becomes Hayes's seventh. If we don't, it is Chocolate Chip. For Mayfield, it is Sweet Exorcist if you include Superfly and two live albums. If you exlude those three, it is Give, Get, Take and Have.

we dunno what the 7 and 1 mean... we will figure out in like a week

Oh both numbers don't reference R&HH I read that wrong then. Just one of 7 & 1 the other is for classics

Our Staff's 10 Favorite Rap Albums of the '90s

The ’90s were the golden era for rap in a lot of ways, but especially in the album format: Rap as an album oriented music really hit its stride in the ’90s. Picking 10 albums from the decade is sure to leave a lot on the cutting room floor, but our staff did our best to come up with 10...

If the 7 and 1 refer to the year of those decades that the albums came out, and matching them up with the artists in this article, RHH could be 1991 and ATCQ The Low End Theory was released that year. Am I reaching? Hopefully not.

That would be a huge R&HH. I’d be down. I keep putting off getting their albums on wax for some reason.

I do too. I see the treatment that De La Soul got and I keep holding out for VMP to do the first 3 ATCQ albums and then jump on those.

I knew someone would miss me saying "Final" because I missed it initially and added it in lol

Knowing the VMP thought process, I'm thinking it's the 25th anniversary, first ever repress of Gangsta's Paradise. I wouldnt be mad either.
