Real Hip-Hop Heads- The 5 Mic Award?

Question

Real Hip-Hop Heads- The 5 Mic Award?
The fact that Lil' Kim got 5 mics for The Naked Truth and Lauyrn Hill didn't get it for the miseducation of.... is proof the source really has no credibility anymore. Back in 1996 they didn’t give Jay-Z Reasonable Doubt 5 Mics, it got five mics years later when they went back and re-reviewed it same with Life After Death. So I am going to list albums that I think were robbed of the 5 Mic award and they should go back and give 5 mics,


All Balls Don't Bounce -Aceyalone this is his most reveared album
Doe or Die -AZ
Paul's Boutique -Beastie Boys there first LP was one of the 42.
Lifestylez Ov Da Poor and Dangerous -Big L should get 5 Mics out of respect to the lyric
Capital Punishment -Big Pun
Black Star -Black Star only got 3.5 Mics from the source-Duh
Ghetto Music: The Blueprint of Hip Hop -BDP the original Blueprint first two got 5 Mic
Resurrection -Common Since this also did not get 5 Mics
Funcrusher Plus -Company Flow this could of but it didn't.
Cypress Hill -Cypress Hill also did not recieve 5 Mics
He's the DJ, I'm the Rapper -Will -The Source just does not understand
Dead Serious -Das Efx also a classic album
3 Feet High and Rising -De La Soul they just forgot to give it 5 Mic
Black on Both Sides -Mos Def could of but did not
Reachin' (A New Refutation of Time and Space) -Digable Planets
The Marshal Mathers LP- Eminem- It was a white thing
The Slim Shady LP -Eminem the Source just hates him
Innercity Griots -Freestyle Fellowship great underground rap
Regulate...G Funk Era -Warren G also could of won it.
Daily Operation -Gangstarr had none could of had 4
Liquid Swords -GZA just another one they forgot
Soul Food -Goodie Mob
The Sun Rises in the East -Jeru the Damaja deserved 5 Mics
Quality Control -Jurasic 5
Return of the Boom Bap -KRS One
Reflection Eternal -Talib Kweli
Funky Technician -Lord Finesse
Hell on Earth -Mobb Deep
Stress: The Extinction Agenda -Organized Confusion
ATLiens -Outkast
Mecca and the Soul Brother -Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth
Illadelph Halflife -The Roots
Runaway Slave -Showbiz and A.G.
93 'Til Infinity -Souls of Mischief
Midnight Marauders -A Tribe could have 3rd one
Life Is...Too Short -Too Short could of.
Fear of a Black Planet - Public Enemy
Thug Life: Vol. 1 -Thug Life
Here Come the Lords -The Lords of the underground
Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde -The Pharcyde
The Main Ingredient- Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth
Step In the arena- Gang Starr
Hard to Earn – Gang Starr
Center of Attention –InI
Blowout Comb- Digable Planets
Ghostface Killah- Supreme Clientele
Lauryn Hill – The miseducation of Lauryn Hill
Livin’ Proof- Group Home –Hey Lil’ Dap and the nutcracker may not be the best lyricists but they’re real and should get 5 for DJ Premier’s production alone, plus they’re better mc’s than Lil’ Kim, and little Kim has had Ghost writers. You could argue that Dr. Dre has had ghost writers but that’s because his main role is producer not mc, and Kim’s main role is mc so there is no excuse.

If Kim gets 5 than Rah Digga should get 5 for Dirty Harriet

What would you add/ subtract to the list?

Those are all no-brainers to me.

You'll notice that the Source slept on many of these artists until they hit it big. Then they were ridin' their richards. The Source doesn't know how to evaluate or find talent. It just echoes what the album sales tell. College Dropout didn't get five for Hova's sake.

Answer 2

The source blows.
