Still my favorite album of that year, and something I'll play for the rest of my life.

One Dance, Controlla, and Too Good aren't hip hop

Who's hotter in hip hop,drake or Kendrick?
Since we are talking about how Views just 'came and went' in the Hip Hop community and TPAB is a 'modern classic' I don't see how your question is relevant

If dude didn't consider views hip hop then why would he even make the comparison? His point must be that the hip hop community is still on tpab while they're done with VIEWS. WHICH isn't true at all

Momma is still the coldest cut on here to me. Still love this album
Views is labeled as a Hip Hop album by the RIAA , so the comparison is apt.
But the RIAA sales aren't a metric for whether or not the Hip Hop community is done with Views. Especially when the large majority of the sales came from the streaming of R&B songs on the album
The rap songs on that LP definitely came and went. None of them resonated at all

All that matters,the enlarged and the fact that views is waaaaaay more successful are the only facts. That other shyt,is comments nikkas pulled out they ass
The sales don't matter when what we're discussing is impact in the Hip Hop community.
None of the impactful songs on Views are rap/hip hop songs.
The album definitely came and went in that aspect.

Giving game to lames since the 90s
Listened to the whole album this past weekend on a road trip..... shyts so refreshing. When you haven't heard it for a few weeks or months it just sounds so different the current rap landscape.
The last classic that dropped.

Do you have more accurate proof of how impactful the songs from both albums were?
What are you going by?
I'll use Drake vs. Drake as an example...
0-100 was impactful.
Energy was impactful
No rap/hip hop song on Views has had any impact on the community

That's not what I asked you,I said where's your undeniable proof? Do you have ANY?
