Hip Hop Is Dead (Nas, 2006)

Basically the same tired mission statement as Disposable Arts but significantly more dynamic and ambiguous in its approach, and for that reason alone a more engaging album, not to mention better beats and the fact that Nas is obviously a better-rounded and just better MC.  Some duller moments, but when it's on it's on and some of the individual tracks are killer (Money Over Bullshit, Black Republican, Not Going Back).
