Epic times call for epic art, and nothing moved us more than The Return of the King. Other things we loved: Louis Vuitton, William Boyd and BBC's The Office And to the Atlanta group OutKast, we say "Stank you very much!"

Break Out Album
Get Rich or Die Trying, produced by Eminem and Dr. Dre, has sold 12 million copies worldwide.

Depth is not Fitty's forte, but it's a testament to his smooth baritone that he made senselessness like "Go Shorty" and "I'm a m_____f____n' P.I.M.P." seductive. Those beats from Dr. Dre didn't hurt either.

Best Tracks: "In Da Club," "Patiently Waiting"

Next Hail to the Thief by Radiohead
