OK, then why did the Source magazine include this album in a Top 10 Hip Hop albums of 1998. Chris Rock created a 25 Greatest Hip Hop albums of all time list and it made his list.

Why would they need a Lauryn Hill album for representation on a list that already featured albums from Kim, Missy, Cardi, Latifah, and Nicki Minaj?
Read my post. I said the album was great but it wasn't top 10 to me. Even in your example, Chris had it at #23 and comfortably outside the top 10.

Y'all get too worked up over opinion-based album lists. :unimpressed:

I'm not the one triggered because Lauryn Hill's album made the top 10.

What made your face screw up like a baby sucking a lemon for its first time off miseducation?

What made you do the same for Doggystyle or Chronic?

Bare in mind lyrically Lauryn Hill>>>

There is a lot of albums way better than miseducation.


they arguing 2 argue.

Its a list based on opinions. There's people in here arguing that Chronic isn't Top 2. What are they doing? Nobody's ever going to agree on the same Top 10 and certainly not the same 100. There are a lot of people who would disagree that Illmatic is the GOAT Hip Hop album for entirely different reasons.

thats fine; but opinions reveal who you are. unless u a fraud.

that shyt has always felt forced AF.

My only memories of miseducation were being forced to listen to it from family I was around.

That shyt was not in any man's CD jacket that I knew. I never bought it.

Its like these phony ass top 10s wanna make sure 2 include some1 from every region 2.


No.
