15. 8 Ball & MJG In Our Lifetime, Vol. 1
By the late ’90s, 8 Ball & MJG had solidified themselves as one of the most respected groups in the South. But the duo was experiencing issues with their label, Suave House. After nine years in rap, the group began to look back at their mistakes and contemplated their uncertain future on In Our Lifetime, Vol. 1. As a result, it stands as their most reflective and personal album. “Nobody But Me,” “Love Hurts,” and “Daylight,” detailed the flip side of being a rapper. But the true gift on the album is “Throw Your Hands Up” featuring OutKast.
