RHH: What do you think of Rolling Stones Music having included 22 RHH album on their top 500 greatest albums?

I saw this list about a year ago and to be honest, some of their
choices are complete bull. Also, I feel like they missed a lot of
other more important albums that represent the best of hip-hop music
as a whole. Some other that could have been added would be Liquid
Swords, AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted, and probably swapped out Raising Hell
for King Of Rock. Either way, Rolling Stones Magazine or Music is not
an expert in hip-hop, but at least managed to acknowledge hip-hop
music and include some albums, which I think was pretty cool
considering they had great albums in the list from Bob Dylan to Led
Zeppelin just to give you an idea.

Here are the albums and how they ranked them out of 500:

497. Public enemy: Yo! Bum Rush the Show
483. The Notorious B.I.G: Life After Death
478. LL Cool J: Radio
477. Fugees: The Score
464. Jay-Z: The Blueprint
459. EPMD: Strictly Business
444. BDP: Criminal Minded
400. Nas: Illmatic
386 Wu-Tang Clan: Enter The 36 Chambers
359. Outkast: Stankonia
346. De La Soul: 3 Feet High and Rising
317. Eminem: The Eminem Show
300. Public enemy: Fear of A Black Planet
248. Jay-Z: Reasonable Doubt
227. Eric B.  Rakim: Paid In Full
156. Beastie Boys: Paul's Boutique
154. ATCQ: The Low End Theory
144. N.W.A: Straight Outta Compton
137. Dr. Dre: The Chronic
133. The Notorious B.I.G: Ready to Die
120. Run DMC: raising Hell
48. Public Enemy: It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

Q: What albums should have been included on the list?
Q2: What albums should have been taken out of the list?

lower?
