I'll post my list later, but I can tell you this:

If you don't have Stillmatic, The Eminem Show/MMLP, Supreme Clientele and The Black Album on your list, it's null and void.

Much respect for recognizing that album.

I think people brushed off that album because they never took "Bubba" seriously. I guess that's his own fault due to how he allowed himself to bemarketed on his debut. But that album was pretty amazing.

But personally, I'd say his best work was that 'Bubba Sparxxx & The Mud Katz - The New South' mixtape he did with DJ Enuff a few years ago. Himand Ms. Jade got it in on the freestyles.
