With the rest of the East Coast spazzing out over this recent earthquake (the Angeleno in me wasn’t even fazed in the slightest), the folks over at TheWellVersed dropped their latest edition of “The Tens” featuring collabo projects they hoped would become a reality.
Now that Watch The Throne has brought our dreams of a super collaboration between Kanye West and Jay-Z into fruition, it has us now contemplating all of the possibilities for future collaborative efforts. After a lot of thought, TWV came up with ten hip-hop collaborations that we wish could somehow happen. Hopefully we spark up an idea for at least one of these to happen.
What are your own ideal collaboration albums?

A Native Tongue’s Family Re-Union featuring, ATCQ, De La Soul, Queen Latifa and Jungle Brothers. We need this to happen

Jay-Z and Biggie, their chemistry was crazy.
Bob said this on August 23rd, 2011 at 3:40 pm
I’m still waiting for Lynwood Rose, since it never really technically happened (Tip, Saadiq, and Voodoo guy). I’d settle for Tip and Common, also talked about.
I wouldn’t mind seeing Cole and Jay Elec doing big things together with Jay kind of sitting on both.
As far as mainstream goes, I think Ludacris and Tyrese could make a lot of money doing an album together. And Tyrese is dying to make some hits, which Luda would help him get. It’s too bad TGT will probably never make an album together either

I think Andre 3000 & Big Boi or Eminem & Royce da 5’9 would make good collaborative albums. Mos Def and Talib Kweli could also be a dope duo.
TRavis OLLiver said this on August 23rd, 2011 at 5:51 pm
currensy and jay elec just to see how many double entendres, lyrical mind fuckery, and brain twisting u can fit on one collab…. big krit and bun b is the first thing that came to my mind too. cole and nas would b dope since a lot of ppl try to make that comparison. kendrick lamar and lauryn hill would b some inspiring shit. 3000 and lupe seem to fit with a chill, lyrical vibe. busta and odb would b crazy. i think pac and dmx would b cool on a project just cuz itd b so fuckin thug. biggie and big l too…legendary
