About Dead End Hip Hop:
No scripts. It's pure unfiltered hip hop conversations and album reviews. No politics. No BS. We Are The People.
I thought this guy was mostly a fan of the spice girls debut album spice
TheIvyBlade thought i was the only one who watched wilty & dehh
You made me LOL... and shows you actually know who Acaster is! Respect! This video made me respect Acaster a lot more, he's now much more to me than only a funny comedian... he loves music and seems to understand what hip-hop is about.
this comment had me in stitches
Banging album tbf
@@micglou I mean shit, he was so pissed he didn't get the album for Christmas, he tried to drown himself.
(I believe he's still mad at his sister.)
Over here in England, James is all over the TV. I’m a huge fan, this is so surreal.
dark green James on the telly aye?
He’s capping
lol yea its fairly mental....who would have thought
He's shit mate
dark green Interesting.
Definitely gotta be 153.AD
The king is back, Romans Reloaded,, Prayers up, Mary had a baby, LongliveChrist, Heaven on Earth, It was recorded... the list goes on.
@@andrewcabaj7597 Yeah but digital recording wasn't invented for another 150 years. Before that the tracks were only available on papyrus.
Nah what about 0 A.D.? Jesus Walks?
Holy shit, this is a great comment lmao
Straight outta bethlehem.
@@aidensnacklad4178 I just burst out laughing
Wait, James Acaster joining DEHH?? I mean, I know he featured on Quelle Chris’ album but this feels so random! Can’t wait to see the whole thing.
He was also on a Fantano video. He just seems to love music
I am in shock... james acaster on DEHH thought my homepage was glitching
Y'all should do a top 10 albums of the decade
bever82 yes, 2010-2019.
A great way to end the decade
Spoiler: My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy winning
@@KitanaiharE that album is the truth
Top 20 I'd say
Feefo: "2004, Pitbull came out!"
😂😂😂
Madvilliany and Mmm food too. Obv TCD
Celia cruz and oscar de león and bachata
Dale
Lol
You can tell how excited James was to be on DEHH, he can't stop smiling. It's very endearing.
Saw one of James’ shows in Wales a few months ago. He’s absolutely hilarious, and it struck me how forthcoming he was about his struggles with mental health. It was sobering. Anybody that likes weird, awkward, creative comedy, give his Netflix set a try. It’s so unique.
I am excited for Cold Lasagne Hate Myself 1999 to come to Netflix! Best show i have ever seen.
@@scottymeuk It's going to!?!? It sounds like it will be amazing but I didn't get to see it live.
2016 was my favorite of this decade. RTJ3, TLOP, Blank Face, Atrocity Exhibition, untitled unmastered, Honor Killed The Samurai, Thank You For Your Service... We Got It From Here.
Old Man Ken and his iPad always cracks me out
Old Man Ken is the best. He seems like that cool and wise uncle
He like Moses with the 10 commandments on them stone tablets. 😂😂
2011 for me was the most exciting year in Hip Hop from my generation. It had a nice blend of Mainstream and underground Hip Hop that I play till this day. Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole and Childish Gambino all dropped their debut albums that year...Watch the Throne was the most hyped album that year including Drake’s Take Care album
Danny Brown’s “XXX” and Shabazz Palaces “Black Up”, Kid Cudi’s best album MOTM2 are amongst my favorite experimental Hip Hop albums of all time also came out in 2011. The true emergence of Odd Future and Tyler The Creator with Goblin and A$AP Rocky with LiveLoveASAP. 2011 was an exciting year and true shift in Modern Hip Hop.
Same I feel like an oldhead saying that but it's the truth
Tyler, the Creaor, Big Sean, Mac Miller, The Weeknd, Frank Ocean, ASAP Rocky, Wiz Khalifa. 2009-2011 was a breakthrough period for a new wave of artists. I would take 2013 over 2011 though.
Could not agree more
And Death Grips Exmilitary
Are u saying section 80...cuz some ppl dont count that
and they said The Avengers was the most ambitious crossover ever
Imma go with 1994. Illmatic, Ready to Die, The Diary, Resurrection, Outkast first joint just to name a few...
November 1993 was the best month- Doggystyle & 36 Chambers came out then.
Thug Life all day
93, 94, 95 the holy trinity for hip hop in the 90s
@@tradez401 I'm with you.
AGREED. Could have said 1993 for Illmatic, The Chronic and Enter the Wu but in 94 we had Biggie too, Snoops solo album and the Wu tangs first solo albums started coming out.
1998!!!!!
1. Wutang Forever
2. Xzibit 40 Dayz & 40 Nightz
3. DMx....2 albums
4. Lox Money Powe Respect
5. JOHN FORTE POLY SCI !!!!!!!!!
6. Cameron Confessikns of Fire
7. Ras Kass Rassassination
8. Method Man Tical 2000
9. Busta Rhymes..E.L.E.
10. OutKast Aquemini
11. Noreaga
12. Lauryn Hill Miseducation
13. Bizzy Bone
14.JayZ Hard Knock Life
15. Jermaine Dupri 1492
16. Sunz Of Man
17. LA THE DARKMAN
18. Redman..Doc's Da Name
Acaster like the teletubbies baby, looming over.
I fully agree with Myke, Ken and Beezy. A personal favourite for mine is 2000 we had The Unseen, Fantastic Vol 2, Stankonia, HNIC, The W, Deltron 3030, Supreme Clientele, Like Water for Chocolate, Train of Thought, Nia, MMLP, Violent By Design, The Platform, Mind Over Matter. So many underrated classics.
Word....definitely a good year
Nice brodie a lot of heat
M.O.P's Warriorz
Afu-Ra's album came out that year too...crazy
Shawn Nelson oh shit yeah that’s a good one bro forgot about that
Feefo: "What year was the whip bumping hardest?"
Any year from 93 to 96 is completely worthy of the title. What an incredible era! Objectively I think 94 just edges it but 96 has to be my favourite for bringing us ATLiens, Hell on Earth, Ironman, Muddy Waters, The Score, All Eyez on Me and At the Speed of Life. I travel back there a lot!
I’ll give a recent year some credit because I experienced it in real time and it ushered in a new era: 2011
TDE (Kendrick Lamar, Ab-Soul, ScHoolboy Q, Jay Rock), Tyler the Creator (who introduced us to the rest of Odd Future), A$AP Rocky, Danny Brown, Action Bronson, Mac Miller, Childish Gambino, Lil B, SpaceGhostPurrp, Big K.R.I.T., Drake, Watch the Throne, Shabazz Palaces, Death Grips and Tech N9ne.
Take Care I still feel is Drake’s career-defining album, All 6s & 7s was Tech N9ne’s mainstream breakthrough, and Watch the Throne was simply a big deal. Otherwise, a lot of those artists started to blow up in 2011.
This is the wildest most random link up I ever seen. Rate it heavily
This is so brilliant! Love the combination of DEHH and James Acaster. About as weird, fascinating, and as brilliant as the cybertruck.
Also well done for this, you guys deserve all the recognition you get. You’ve done a lot for the hip hop community. And very much in your own unique and wholesome way. Good on you!
So happy to hear a digable planets shout-out. Reachin is still so good
Check out story’s from the brass department, great modern jazz rap
It would be really dope if you guys made a dope Spotify or Apple playlist of each of yalls years. ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿 Amazing episode
I won't say it's the best year but 2015 might be my favorite year in hip hop : TPAB, Lupe's comeback with T&Y, Earl dropped two incredible projects, Death Grips, Vince Staples and a bunch more.
That's interesting, because James actually mentions TPAB in his book (where he argues how 2016 is the best year in music history) at the very start, saying that many albums were rumored to be deleayed, because they didn't want to be overshadowed by it - in turn giving the artists more time to refine their albums they've released in 2016.
@@WediFlo 2016 is stacked too. Danny Brown, Tribe, Schoolboy Q. There’s a bunch more too. Even the leaser known stuck like Ka and NoName’s first album.
@@gotf Haha yeee, pretty sure he mentions all of them... but don't forget to mention my favorite rap album from that year: Aesop Rock - The Impossible Kid. God I love it so much! :)
@@WediFlo Yeah I was thinking of Aesop too when i mentioned Ka, but forgot. The last decade of hip hop general had so many high points.
My favorite 2
92-97 had CLASSICs and genre defining Hip Hop albums
Yeah five years of course there was hahaha
I say 92-96. 97 is where i feel everything chnaged. Everything felt way to mainstream
@jermaine tobin the albums in the 80's haven't aged well in my opinion lol
jermaine tobin youre the type of person i detest talking too lmao
ruclips.net/video/IsSsak1b140/видео.html
2017 is super underrated in these convos! Flower boy, 4eva is a mighty long time, Damn, saturation trilogy, 4:44, amerikkkan badass and some of the best trap ever with Without Warning, culture, and luv is rage 2, and many more!
And quelle chris, open Mike eagle, Vince Staples dropped their best projects in 2017
However it's important to note that 2017 is the year I really got into rap. That's how it goes I guess 😂
Kinda wish Feefo was here & the video was 7-8 minutes longer to accommodate that, just for an added perspective. I imagine Feefo would've been in 2000s some place.
On a positive note, this is a great conversation and I thoroughly enjoyed this video.
22:48 "we didn't even know each other..." If the video wasn't already made, we need a DEHH origin story video, how did y'all come to be?
they talked about it in their 1 year anniversary Q&A video
How tf does James Acaster (love of my life) pop up in all my favourite places
1994 obviously
Illmatic
Ready to Die
Southernplayalistic
The Diary
Hard to Earn
Regulate
2012 would be my second choice
GKMC
Life is Good
R.A.P. Music
Control System
Live from the Underground
Trophies
the absolute boy actually went on dead end hip hop hahahaah this is amazing
3:37 myke out here peaking at us
Hi myke
Now I want a James Acaster and Myke C-Town podcast.
I didn’t know y’all were cool with James Acaster like that. He’s my favorite comedian of all time.
The best year in hip hop is Die Lit
The best hip hop in years is Die Lit
Pierre Bourne is the best part about the album but Playboi Carti was terrible on that album.
@@dickridinhater7816 I personally disagree. Carti's flows are really catchy and contagious.
DICKRIDIN HATER You pay too much attention to lyrics. Carti’s flow is dope asf
DICKRIDIN HATER But I will agree Pierre is the best out right now
1995 was crazy too
the infamous - mobb deep
soul food - goodie mob
liquid swords - gza
only built for cuban linx - rae & ghost
return to the 36 chambers - ODB
lifestylez ov da poor & dangerous - big L
me against the world - 2pac
labcabincalifornia - pharcyde
mystic styles - three 6 mafia
e 1999 eternal - bone thugs n harmony
doe or die - AZ
conspiracy - junior mafia
the awakening - lord finesse
J Terry my vote tbh
Yeah
Awakening was in 96
Me: Oh uh, I listen to a lot of music.
James Acaster: I own over 550 albums... from 2016.
Me:
weird flex but ok
Agree... weird flex. Because if he would actually listen to those album back to back... nd let's say an average of 50 minutes per album (that's low)... that's over 19 days of listening and that only accounts that he listened to every single one of them once!
micglou he wrote a book about it. he had a mental breakdown and music was his therapy.
@@sciencecharity I know, it's mentioned in the video... but still, 550 albums is A LOT of music to absorb... A LOT.
micglou 50 minutes is quite long for hip hop specifically
@@kskull5764 No it isn't...
Wtf is James Acaster doing on Dead End Hip Hop??? I'm British and I'd have never guessed he was a hip-hop fan 😂😂
I'd love to see you guys link up with another British comedian Romesh Rangnathan who has a hip-hop podcast called "Hip-Hop Saved my Life"
1995 was the best for me: Liquid Swords, ODB, Only Built for Cuban Linx, Labcabincalifornia, KRS One etc. Though 2014 comes very close.
labcabin is one of my favorite albums
2014 doesn't come close to 1995 when it comes to hip-hop releases. There was nothing on the same level as the albums you listed or other albums that year.
mistahmst I dunno. RTJ2 is an all-time favourite of mine, but that’s a personal choice, so I get if other people don’t feel the same way.
@@Solarisxx labcab >> bizzare ride
@@georgenaratadam3803 yah i would agree, j dilla made some amazing beats working on that album....i dont know why more people dont say that and its kinda overlooked...oh well
1988...nwa , public enemy , big daddy Kane, slick rick , Erik b and rakeem etc
This conversation is super dope with Acaster because the history of the eras in HipHop. HipHop the only shit that has evolved and soo many icons- underground, mainstream and everybody that's art so the best is subjective and personal to everyone
93 - 94 felt strong at the time... Been waiting for a mention of Innercity Griots and the Fellowship on DEHH for a looooooong time
96 had wild classics
Great picks, I would go with 1993 because 36 Chambers had the biggest impact on my life when I got into hip hop. After I heard Wu Tang, I decided to start collecting hip hop cds and listen to them in my car instead of the radio. Beezy430 made a good list for 94 but Myke reaffirmed my choice with his 93 list.
Before I watch...
B: 1993. Midnight Marauders, 36 Chambers, Illmatic...
Myke: What year did Fantastic Damage come out? 2002? That one.
Kinge: 1982. I was in my last year of college and listening to music was more rewarding when you had to adjust the radio antenna every 6 seconds
C town so unorthodox wouldn’t be surprised if he said 1972
1988
Slick Rick : The Great adventures of Slick Rick
Big Daddy Kane : Long Live The Kane
Boogie Down Productions : By All Means Necessary
EPMD : Strictly Business
Public Enemy : It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back
N.W.A : Straight Outta Compton
Eric B. & Rakim : Follow The Leader
Ultramagnetic MCs : Critical Beatdown
Jungle Brothers : Straight Out the Jungle
Run D.M.C : Together Than Leather
Rob Base & EZ Rock : It Takes Two
Lakim Shabazz : Pure Righteousness
Stetsasonic : In Full Geer
@@cinematic7928 chill it’s not that deep😂
2004 was an underrated great year. Mm... Food, Madvilliany, College Dropout, among many others.
I started collecting Hip Hop in 1988 when I bought Tougher Than Leather before even owning a record player.
I stopped collecting around 2010, mostly because several of my favorite artists stopped sending out vinyl. I've only bought Run The Jewels 1, 2, and 3 since then.
Off the top 1998 and 1996 had some of the most memorable albums of all time
Hands down the most underrated year in all hip hop history....1991!
You had the debuts of Tupac,Del the Funkee Homosapien,KMD(with MF Doom),LONS,Main Source,Nas(on the Main Source album),Pete Rock and CL Smooth,Showbiz and AG,Freestyle Fellowship,Organized Konfusion,Black Sheep,UMCs,WC and the Maad Circle,Ed OG and the Bulldogs,The Fu Schnickens,DJ Quick,Downtown Science,the Gza etc.
(And that's not even getting into albums released by veteran acts that year by folks like PE,Cube,De La,Quest,Stetsasonic etc.)
YOU GUYS AREN'T OLD!! AGEISM DIES ON MY WATCH!! I LOVE YOU GUYS YOUR KNOWLEDGE OF HIP HOP HAS HONESTLY CHANGED MY LIFE. THANK YOU ALL
1988 is in my opinion the greatest year in Hip Hop history. Influential and acclaimed albums from the streets and critics
I have never before been so simultaneously confused and thankful for a crossover of people I watch.

Other ideas:
Best Albums of 2019
Best Albums of the 2010s
Revised Top 10 albums of all time
I'd go with '94 for sure. I wasn't alive yet, but Ready to Die and Illmatic both came out that year!!!
1988...hands down!
NWA Big Daddy Kane PE Slick Rick Rakim... rap was exciting then!
@@ogfunk187 salt n pepa, kid & play, mantronix, stetsasonic, BDP, Queen Latifah, jungle brothers, ll cool j, so many fam.
Wish feefo was here for this I’m curious what’s he’s feelin
Beezy is like when is this gonna end, I came here for refreshments.
1994- Organized Konfusion Stress: The Extinction Agenda, O.C. Word Life, Artifacts Between A Rock & A Hard Place, Beatnuts Street Level. Crooklyn Dodgers, Craig Mack Flava in ya Ear, Big L Put it On
It's not just about albums, but also about what tracks were released or on the radio, so 1998 was amazing to me for underground 12"s/radio/mixtapes, plus all the street stuff at the same time
While I grew up in this decade, '93, '94, and '96 had lots of classics with 20/20 vision. Imo, 2018 of this decade had the most in terms of quantity.
2012 was when I jumped in heavy. Started on kendricks section 80 and joeybadass but as a young head drake and lil wayne were in heavy rotation. If I had listened to my homies dblock was always choice.
I hated mainstream Hip-Hop from 2000 until about 2012. Joey Badass, Pro Era, TDE and Run the Jewels saved me. Cole, Kendrick, El P, Statik Selektah and Joey saved the culture.
96 best year in hip hop period
Hard to say. But I’m gonna say 1989 and 1994. My fondest memories are from both of those years. 89 was my introduction to hip hop after hearing Big Daddy Kane and EPMD, and then I was hooked and just kept digging. 94 because it was a new era that just exploded with a new wave of artists and classic albums that came out.
holy shit JAMES ACASTER he’s huge in englanf
I love James, he's so chill!
I couldn't choose one single year lol but 93-95 are prob my favorite years. SO much amazing records came out
"F*ck, what does Feefo say?" Lol. Awesome collab interview guys. Thanks
My respect for Acaster went up 1000%... already thought he's a funny dude, but didn't know he's into music this much, but most importantly has a special spot for hip-hop... so special these guys found that it was worth it including him in this. Also respect these guys how they're discussing this... I get all their perspectives and respect them. Because just like that tiresome "GOAT" discussion, there is no definitive... it's all about perspective, personal taste... what or who resonates with you the most... and they kept it 100%.
ruclips.net/video/IsSsak1b140/видео.html
2011: Section 80 is Kendricks breakout record, XXX is Danny Browns breakout record ASAP Rocky debuts, Big KRIT drops Return of 4eva (my favorite KRIT album) Death Grips debuts and drops Exmilitary and flips the whole genre on its head
YES MYKE! Buhloone Mindstate is my FAVOURITE De La album, and it was them who got me into hip hop in as a 10 year old in 1989!
oh man i love james acaster, i re-watch repertoire all the time

13:40 watching B tear up about his parents buying him his first cd player...beautiful
Ive read a similar comment on another video, but James Acaster appearing on Dead End Hip Hop really feels like the RUclips algorithm decided to start producing videos just for me!
I never in my life thought I'd see James "The Legend" Acaster in a DEHH video I'm dead 🤪🤪🤣🤣🤣
2016 was an incredible year, EVERYBODY put out heat from the mainstream to the underground. Artists like Young Thug, Lil Uzi, and Danny Brown transformed the sound of the genre. Whether you wanted trap music, hear bars, or delve into experimental side, you had a wide selection from all of them. It wasn’t just a few great albums/mixtapes either, we were getting multiple in a single month. Don’t even get me started on the summertime parties either.....if you know you know. Despite the fun, artists still took the time to be political and speak on issues like police brutality, being black in America, and that crazy election. Everybody says 2016 was the greatest year ever, and the music we had gave it that legendary stamp.
Did you like Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight? Just asking
2015 was better. So was 2011
Jordan Davis I thought it was just average at the time. I appreciated we could all sing every word to “beibs in the trap”, “way back” and “pick up the phone” at parties, but I still wasn’t a fan of that album.
If we're talking all genres, 2016 was the better than 2015; ANTI, LEMONADE, TLOP, BLONDE, BIRDS IN THE TRAP SING MCKNIGHT, A SEAT AT THE TABLE, RAE SREMMARD DROPPED BLACK BEATLES, MIGOS DROPPED BAD AND BOUJIE. From start to finish, it was amazing.
agree 100%, 2016 was the best year of life for me
That's what I was thinking too, 1996. That Makaveli album was excellent and I really love ATLiens. I was 14 in '96..Ridin' Dirty was great too, Hi Life and One Day.
Illmatic is hands down the greatest album of all time.
2015 was for me the best year in Hip Hop: Compton, To Pimp A Butterfly, The Documentary 2/2.5, If You're Teading This It's Too Late, Darkest Before Dawn, B4.DA.$$, 90059, Tetsuo & Youth, Ludaversal, Summertime '06, ...
Personally Imma go with 1998
Outkast-Aquemini
DMX- It's Dark and Hell is Hot & Flesh of my Flesh Blood of my Blood
Big Pun- Capital Punishment
Jay-Z- Vol.2 Hard Knock Life
Lauryn Hill- The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill
Black Star- Mos Def & Talib Kweli are Black Star
Hieroglyphics- 3rd Eye Vision
Aceyalone - A Book Of Human Language
Gang Starr- Moment of Truth
Kool G Rap- Roots of Evil
Pete Rock- Soul Survivor
Sunz of Man- The Last Shall be First
These are just my favorite albums
Good picks. Still prefer 93/94 but good picks.
I Am- Nas
Beneath The Surface- GZA
Veteranz Day- Big Daddy Kane
You guys should do top 10 albums this decade
Man I’ve been a fan of dehh and James acaster for years now, and seeing the two worlds collide seemingly out of nowhere like this is amazing. And I can’t believe they didn’t have this conversation ages ago
88, 94, 96,98, 2008, 2009, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017 are stand outs for me
93/94 best years for hip hop
2015
“To Pimp A Butterfly”
“Testuo & Youth”
“Love Story”
“At.Long.Last.A$AP”
“90059”
“Soul Sour”
“Summertime 06”
“The Documentary 2 & 2.5”
“Mudface”
Just great albums throughout that whole year honestly
What an incredibly pleasant surprise. James is a funny dude, but had no clue there was a connection!
James, imma let u finish but... POPPADOMS OR BREAD
This must be the most unexpected crossover ive seen jajaja
Literally just did a double TAKE 😳🤯
1993 for sureeee for the old school. Then you got 2011 🔥
Im only 21 years old ans 96 was my answer. Goes to show how important that year was.
For me it's 96. Too many classics to list.
that RTJ3 year mayne all flames...whew Mr. Acaster definitely on to something
Love this, they should do albums of the decade too
This is a crossover I never expected but i am very grateful for
From this decade is 2016:
Kendrick Lamar- untitled unsmastered
Schoolboy Q- Blank Face
Run the jewels - RTJ3
ATC - We Got It from Here... Thank You 4 Your Service
Isaiah Rashad - The Sun's Tirade
YG - Still Brazy
This decade is 2012

The part where Myke was breaking down the difference between favorite and best confuses me... because during the Joker review on "Frames per Second" Nick said he thought Phoniex was the best Joker, but Ledger is his favorite.....and I thought it was a good answer because I felt the same way....but the rest of the cast said it didn't make sense.....or maybe I misunderstood something.
Ray Kincaid link??
Myke was so spot on with 93
2015 had: TPAB, ALLA, Rodeo, Cherry Bomb, Good AM, Summertime '06, I don't like sh*t I don't go outside, DS2, Sremmlife, The Documentary, The Incredible true story, and many others. That's my favorite year
