    Been on a Prodigy/Action Bronson kick (partially in thanks to @Jeans threads) which got me thinking about albums that aren't on streaming services.

    Albums that aren't on streaming services are effectively being written out of rap canon, so the purpose of this thread is to create and immortalize a list of must-listen albums that aren't on streaming services (I'm using spotify, so forgive me if some of these are on other services). Here are my suggestions so far and plz suggest more albums so we can create a more complete list:

    @Jeans @Enez @Sea Mauville @Lil Squeed @Winter @cpt awesome WPG joint acc @Charlie Work @Fire Squad @awhellno @Thy

    A$AP Rocky - Live.Love.A$AP (2011)

    Have no idea if Jay ever decided to promote this mixtape in any form or fashion, but for any fellow Hov Stan this is a must listen. Had a number of rare Just Blaze remixes of The Black Album tracks and familiar freestyles you might have heard from Jay, I promise you the Allure Remix is worth all the effort. Don't even know where to find this nowadays, I've had this tape from a Limewire file ages ago but this is what it looks like:

    All of One Be Lo's stuff is only available on Bandcamp to download. His newer stuff is great but it's painful that it's not on streaming and it has such a low user base that I can never find it on my normal places for downloading.

    Yup I know but thanks for the heads up anyway. I'm doing this more to crowdsource a list for everyone to access because these albums will become easier and easier to miss as time goes by.
