25 Greatest Hip-Hop Albums Of The Last Decade
10. Rick Ross - Teflon Don
One of the greatest qualities of a Rick Ross album is that he paints such a vivid, detailed picture with his lyrics that you could close your eyes while listening to him and it would feel like a movie is playing in your head.
Although Ross is able to do that on pretty much every album he's ever put out, he's truly at his descriptive and boastful self as he brings you on a journey through his luxurious lifestyle. Ross doesn't stray from his usual formula when it comes to making records, but this does show him at the peak of his powers.
Ross has always had a brilliant ability to pick the best sounding beats from top producers. Working alongside the likes of Kanye West, Lex Luger and the J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League really helped lay the foundations for this album. He also has plenty of features, including Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, T.I and more.
Despite a career that has produced hit after hit and 10 celebrated albums, Teflon Don really is the quintessential record of Rick Ross's career.
