If you had to pick one album to get a person into hip hop what would you pick?

    it is the best Binary Star album imo, it's significantly better than masters of the universe, quite a lot different and more personal with amazing production. Was my favorite album for like 7 years, until Control System dropped. One of the only albums i consider 10/10

    Maybe All Eyez On Me

    It has a lot of very recognisable songs that even non hip hop fans would be familiar with, and it's pretty diverse content wise
