200 Greatest Underrated Music Recordings Part 4

188. Twink - Twink (2002)


This Experimental album by Composer Twink was an interesting journey. Recorded with Xylophones and Toy Pianos, Twink recorded for Comedy Central and Nickelodeon. At first listen, it's creepy, but it grows on you.

Favorite song "Plink Plinka Plunk"

187. Raw Breed - Lune Tunz(1993)

This album sounds like every song either samples or referenced a cartoon from the Golden Era of cartoons (ex. Looney Tunes, Droopy, Tom and Jerry, Popeye), which makes this album that much more fun to listen to. It's too bad their next album got banned while they started to gain attention, this group had potential.

Favorite song "Rabbit Stew" featuring Shawnie Ranks

186. Back To The World - Tevin Campbell (1996)


After two large albums and recording music for Disney, it's hard to follow up successfully with a major album. This album was smooth with pretty backup vocals, but most of P Diddy's production magic went to Biggie Smalls & Total at this time. Did I mention He sang as Powerline in A Goofy Movie Before this?

Favorite song "Back To The World"

185. David Wise - Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest Original Soundtrack (1995)


Video game soundtracks are generally underrated, and might need their own list, but this one gets a special mention. Composed by David Wise, this was a great album to listen to if you like instrumentals. It's like actually being in the environments the video game stages had.

Favorite song "Lost World Anthem"
