Cole was at the top of the so-called “new class.” The Fayetteville, North Carolina MC/producer faced tremendous pressures between his white-hot mixtape run and becoming a radio-ready star. This battle, featuring a #1 and arguably the biggest breakthrough of the 2010s, has some seriously high powered implications (click one then click “vote”). Kendrick Lamar’s Section.80, which featured early Cole production work, is a highly inventive cosmos of Compton anthropology, years before the mainstream accolades. 2014 Forest Hills Drive is a third album that felt like a debut-with its own artist fending off distractions, including his strong label machine. Collaborators for nearly five years, these diligent students of Nas and Tupac Shakur, respectively attained a gift for making the music feel meaningful, and to be cherished-even in an era where music is becoming more of a commodity. In the 2010s, you will not encounter many conversations about what’s good about present-day Hip-Hop without hearing the names of J. While there will no doubt be conversation between family and friends (virtual and real), only votes cast in the voting tool below will be counted, so use the power of your click. You and your vote will decide which album goes forward, and which one leaves the conversation.

“Finding The GOAT Album” will consider 120 albums from three individual eras (40 in each), with options for wild card and write-in candidates. Now, “Finding The GOAT” returns to ask a new question: what is the greatest of all time Hip-Hop album? One year ago, Ambrosia For Heads launched a debate among its readers seeking to answer one of Hip-Hop’s most hotly-contested questions: who is the greatest MC of all time? “Finding The GOAT MC” lasted between September 2014 and May 2015, engaging millions of readers and ultimately producing its winner, as determined by hundreds of thousands of voters.
