Aladdin, only because I know nothing of the person you speak, but also becuz some Disney movies can be hard to find after a little while on DVD

Aladdin is one of the last good animated Disney movies, and among the best ever. Grab that.

Aladdin, one of the last great Disney movies (the last good one in my mind was Emperor's New Groove).
edit: ah crap, thought Lion King came out before Aladdin, changing post.

Ummm...yeah....so what are you the President of the Ja Rule fan club or what man? Blackstar is one of the nicest groups on the planet (for those of you who don't know Blackstar consists of Talib Kweli and Mos Def)

Ah, the words of the uninitiated :)
As much as I love Aladdin, get Kweli's new album. I hear that it's even better than Quality which is really hard to top. Plus, you already know what happens in Aladdin :)

Hard choice to make, but I would have to choose Aladdin.
"Cee-lo - Cee-lo Green is the Soul Machine" > "Talib Kweli - Beautiful Struggle" and I own both.

Ok because of that Cee-lo comment, Explosion's vote has to be disqualified

Hmm underground hip hop or overly merchandised Disney movie? Go with the street cred man...get Kweli!

I'll get Kweli's album for 10.76 and use the rest on Aladdin when i'll buy it on Tuesday. It better be 15.99 or i'll be pissed.

Mainstream hiphop sucks.
Agreed. The underground stuff is the only thing good anymore, everything else is unoriginal and commercialized, or have violent or "obscene lyrics" just for shock value (personally I don't see how some words are "bad' but other words that mean the same thing are not).
Screw Disney. They aquired the rights to the Studio Ghibli movies just to bury them, so people wouldn't realize how much Disney sucks and how much better animation can be. They would rather release Bambi 9: Thumper's Revenge or Aladdin 6 than do anything original or new.

let's see...a classic animated film or another crappy rap cd? i'd have to go with aladdin. it's kind of an obvious answer to a silly question.
calling talib kweli an underground rapper is like calling sloan an indie band.
get aladdin.

I'd get both, eventually. Aladdin first though.
