best album in 1996

IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER (drumroll...)
11/5--A-1 Yola (as classic as FIENDIN 4 THA FUNK..."When I be all alone and gettin' blunted, all I think about is...")
Celly Cel--Killa Kali (Still his best. "Funk Season" was my jam...)
OutKast--ATLiens (they take you to another world...)
2PAC--All Eyez On Me (all his styles came together well).
B-Legit--The Hemp Museum (Dope slang, banging beats..."Neva bite the hand that feeds ya...").
San Quinn--The Hustle Continues (took a while to grow on me, but once it did...)
Master P--Ice Cream Man (THE GHETTO'S TRYIN' TO KILL ME is his all-time best, but P was still pretty hard on this one---this was before he started imitating 2Pac...)
Mac Mall--Untouchable (proves that you CAN sign to a major and still be as dope as you were when you were underground..."Let's get a telly and don't tell nobody...")
E-40--The Hall of Game (not as consistant as IN A MAJOR WAY, but 85 to 90% of this was dope, IMHO).
Westside Connection--Bow Down (it's dated, but worth it to hear Cube, Mack and WC stand up for West Coast Rap's right to exist. Yup, B-Real DOES "sound like he got baby nuts!" LMFAO!!!).
HONORABLE MENTIONS:
MC Ren--Da Villain in Black--all REN CDs are dope, but this one has some of his best production (from Cold 187um!)
Silkk--"The Shocker"--SILKK actually sounded cool on this (he was still flowing fast and not yet screaming, as he annoyingly did on No Limit CDs from '97 and thereafter). Hard, Bay-ish production, too (well, maybe not on "No Limit Party" but otherwise...)
PEACE!
