3) Ludacris - Red Light District
4) Nas - Street's Disciple
5) Dieselboy - The Dungeonmaster's Guide

7) Rammstein - Reise Reise
8) Nonpoint - Recoil
9) Kanye West - College Dropout
10) Twista - Kamikaze

I really can't think of any other great CRAB for 2004, it wasn't particularly spectacular for rock music by any means...anyways, maybe some of my suggestions will introduce someone to something new as most of your suggestions did.

It's weird because while I like their stuff, I like the songs by other people featuring the Cunninlynguists even better. I never got a chance to see them live when I was in Detroit though.
