Whether "HipHop" agrees or not "Take Care" is a classic album.

[CrimsonTider]

First all this album has the most quality and attention to detail put in album in long time (if ever)

No Verse, beat, sample or hook is wasted. All of them have a purpose and impact.

This album has Quality lyrics, Production, hooks and sequence.

The album has Anthems, Club songs, Introspective songs and headphone music.

Drake deals with every single emotion on this album.

This album has quotable for days and every single tore up the charts.

Impact, Innovation whatever qualities you give a classic album "Take Care" has it.

It was release with some heavyweights (WTT & C1V) and outshined them considerably.

There is no consesus on the best song on the album because every song is complete different experience.

Now let me hear about a whole bunch of shyt that has nothing to do with music(he's soft, he's a jew, the machine behind me, He sings about women, etc) on why this album is not a Masterpiece

I know of all the things that I hear they be pokin’ fun at
Never the flow though, they know I run that
fukk you all, I claim that whenever
I change rap forever, the game back together

"Hiphop heads"

 

[Nintendough]

It is a classic pop album. It also produced one of the top 5 simp songs of all time.

all opinions of a nikka that doesn't know shyt about music

 

[Plexxx]

i know you're repping the same team my nikka but

 

[CrimsonTider]

So are you going to pass out insults or come with legitimate reasons why its not a classic.

I'm interested to see how this thread will turn out. I admit I really like the album, and I play it constantly. However, time will tell if we can call it a classic. I can't really say because the overall influence of the album won't be known for awhile. If this was a thread about "So Far Gone" being a classic mixtape, I would be behind that 100%. This, you need time.

 

[franny]

from a strictly musical standpoint, it was a great album
"hip hop heads" that try to live vicariously through gangster rappers will disagree though

 

[Non Sequitur]

I hate to have to be "that guy," but,

Spoiler

clas·sic
adj.
1.
a. Belonging to the highest rank or class.
b. Serving as the established model or standard: a classic example of colonial architecture.
c. Having lasting significance or worth; enduring.
2.
a. Adhering or conforming to established standards and principles: a classic piece of research.
b. Of a well-known type; typical: a classic mistake.
3. Of or characteristic of the literature, art, and culture of ancient Greece and Rome; classical.
4.
a. Formal, refined, and restrained in style.
b. Simple and harmonious; elegant: the classic cut of a suit; the classic lines of a clipper ship.
5. Having historical or literary associations: classic battlefields of the Civil War.

Only in the sense of:

1a: It was one of the best albums of the year it was released,

4a: I think we can all agree that the album was tastefully put together, and that Drake stayed in pocket doing what he does best.

and 4b: Like CrimsonTider said, "No Verse, beat, sample or hook is wasted. All of them have a purpose and impact."

Not enough time has passed for 1b or 1c; 2a, 2b and 5 certainly don't apply and 3 only applies because Drake is a homo.



However, in any case, Drake is a soft Jew who sings about women with the machine behind him.

I thought being a "hip hop head" just means you're a fan of the culture/music. Like every fumkin person on this forum

 

[Stephen.A.Smith]

its more of a rnb album than a hip hop.

I thought it meant that too, but look at the threads some of the threads here.

Some people who claim too be big on Hiphop have an extreme problem with certain rap music that fans like.
