But to answer your question her album got the same rating from The Source as Method Mans Tical 2 :sas1:


And XXL gave it the highest rating a XXL which according to them = classic

Receipts.

As I recall it got no mics because it didn't get reviewed as a rap album by the "bible" of Hip Hop, not in real time or when they went back and re-rated shyt.

Because It's not necessarily about what album is "best" it's about impact and definitive of the artist's work. Plenty of people think TES is Em's best album but it's not the landmark, MMLP is...it's not rocket science.

Hardcore is that album for Lil Kim who for better or worse is probably the most influential female MC.

The Source reviewed Miseduaction but reviewed it in the alternative section where they reviewed R&B albums but didn't mic them. They said it was a hip hop album in that excerpt though.

XXL ratings do not hold nearly the same amount of prestige.

And what does Tical 2000 have to do with the so called Grammy award winning "Doggystyle" of 1998 getting reviewed as "alternative" and not even being given a mic rating?

T2 wasn't rated either,. Jazzmatazz 3 was also not rated and was also detailed in the alternative section but no one is stupid enough to say OH JAZZMATAZZ 3 isn't hip-hop its jazz.:camby:

My point? Your argument about TMELH not being rated is null n void.

1. Jazzmatazz was a neo soul album.
2. Tical wasn't grammy nominated or the "doggystyle" of that era like Miseducation was...:mjlol:

Bottom line is, the most respected authority at the time on rap music reviewed the album as alternative and didn't even rate it as rap, yet I'm white and somehow out of the loop for wanting to follow the same logic and not sit this on the same shelf as Ready To Die...nikka please...

The shyt was about as "Hip Hop" as 411 or any Badu album, in spirit only. The shyt does NOT warrant comparisons to great rap albums.

i fukk HATE that MOLH gets any type of billing as a rap album... she ain't rapping on half of it for one... and 2, nikkas don't remember ANY of her bars as being anything classic

this was a damn r&b album that white people put in the rap category based on 3 singles

Testify.

Sh*t had 4 singles, and she rapped on 1.5 of them. Bogus.
