808s & Heartbreak (Kanye West, 2008)

So glad I finally listened to this, it really bridges the gap between Graduation and Fantasy.  Up there with his best work and certainly his rawest.  I feel like if this had been released after Yeezus it would've been much more warmly received.  Kanye eulogizing his mother in a stadium full of people screaming and shouting "I love you Kanye" is maybe his most defining moment.

Choice cuts: Heartless, Amazing, Paranoid
