OH MAN! Great thread MICK!

Since you and Wadeb have already named a couple of my favorite albums:

Marshal Mathers LP - Eminem
Ready to Die / Life After Death - Notorious BIG
It's Dark and Hell is Hot - DMX

I'll throw in ones that haven't been named yet:

The Dynasty / The Black Album - Jay-Z
No Way Out - Puff Daddy
Get Rich or Die Trying - 50 Cent
All Eyez on Me - Tupac (I know it's a compilation, but it's a sweet CD)
Mr. Smith - LL Cool J
When Disaster Strikes - Busta Rhymes
Blackout - Method Man and Redman
The Eminem Show - Eminem

Even though it's really considered Rock, there is Rapping in them.

Hybrid Theory / Meteora - Linkin Park (Probably two of the greatest albums EVER!!)

Wow! Kanye! I knew I would forget someone on my list! I'm a Budden fan too but he hasn't made an album that was that good. Individual songs were good, but never a whole album...

My friend found a cassette tape of that album at a thrift store and bought it for me (as a joke). Hilarious stuff.
