Gotta go with OutKast. Their first 3 records are untouchable imo, each is absolutely amazing in its own way: Southernplaylisticcadillacmuzik was a start-to-finish amazing album that perfectly captured the vibe of 90s atlanta rap, ATliens was one of the most interesting, creative, weird, left field southern rap albums to come out in the 90s, & Aquemini was just a big ol soulful, harmonic, majestic masterpiece.

Don't get me wrong, this takes nothing away from Kendrick though. Section 80 was a great debut, GKMC is the best concept album in the modern era of mainstream hip hop IMO, & TPAB is one h--- of a creative & impactful concept album, really made quite an impact on music (& on many people in general), inspiring major artists like Dr. Dre, David Bowie, etc. So his first 3 are really no joke either, but i still gotta give it to 'Kast
