Complex may not be a rap outlet, per se, but it does seem to include a lot of rap/hip-hop on its best-of lists.

Yes, but they also have overall lists, so I won't include this one.

Complex has compiled a Best R&B Albums of the 90s list, but I imagine it's the same deal as the rap albums list (not eligible).
