Yeah. I heard one song, forget what it was, but it was then I saw why Nicki had fans. Her bars were below average, but she was riding the track, making it sound like something.
Lil Kim the GOAT female rapper ever

I don’t care if you don’t like her bars but she has skill in terms of riding the beat .
She’s trash but out raps her male counter parts make it make sense

Last week pink Friday turned 10 years old and everyone was celebrating .
I don’t think an album that isn’t classic is doing that .
Currently any album gets an anniversary special. I wouldn’t be surprised if Chingy’s Jackpot or J-Kwon’s Hood Hop had celebration threads.
lil kim has ONE good album, which she clearly didnt even write,
i could at least see if she put out more quality thru the years or something.
so basically, all you have to do is stand on a soapbox and proclaim yourself as the goat or "the best rapper alive", etc etc........rap fans dont take hip-hop seriously. then they wonder why outsiders treat it as a novelty trinket.

I don't think Biggie wrote every word of Hardcore. Yeah, he definitely helped her and that's obvious. Still, there's a lot on Hardcore that isn't Biggie and it has nothing to do with the content and what not, it's just certain rhymes on that album that aren't Biggie. She came into her own on that album because she sounded different than she did on some of the Junior Mafia songs. Listening to the demos of some of the Junior Mafia songs that never got released, Kim sounded exactly like Biggie. Her voice was way deeper.
I don't think his post had to do with the threads. Some albums get these anniversary pieces written or documentaries made about them. Its not all albums that get that treatment. The Booth runs anniversary threads into the ground because they do it yearly for any album. I'm talking anniversary pieces that celebrate 10, 15, 20, 25 year milestones that analyze the impact and influence of a work within that time frame.

This is true, but nothing about Pink Friday is classic. Nicki has zero classics, just good sales and radio play. Maybe a classic verse on “Monster”, but even that was highly overhyped.
I actually listened to Pink Friday and I didn't hear anything that set it apart from other rap albums or even other female rap albums. It wasn't even the best rap release to drop that day ( I think it came out the same day as My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy) and nothing on her album was even better than her verse from "Monster". I haven't revisited the album since, but remember thinking this sounds awfully close to what Lil' Kim was doing on Notorious K.I.M. and then this really threw me for a loop because these two songs are eerily similar:
^^^ similar titles, same producer (Swizz Beatz), and similar content and feel

Pink Friday shaped female rap today, has the highest debut sales week for a female rap album this century, recharged higher than mbdtf on their 10 yr anniversary this year, and every female rapper that has debuted in the last few year has said that Nicki is their biggest influence
