man this showbiz n ag- mugshot music: preloaded is classic too- i know its too early but this has to be classic

i haven' gotten around to that yet,..but given show and ag series and track record to expand on previous work.

it could easily be a classic.

especially if it is short and condensed.

usually a show/ag classic is easily discernible as classic.

so i would not doubt you giving them a classic rating...

full scale was a classic outta nowhere.

as well as soul clap and runaway were back to back classics.

Or...

hell hath no fury is one of the worst rap albums ever.

production and the vocal performances are wack and uninspired attempts to be cutting edge with a dull butterknifezz

shyt is the epitome of wackness and such a departure from their high four mic album,..it is a joke.

i do not remember doughnuts like that but i know nikkas bit it and callthe bites classic on some bullshyt though.

i would have to re-listen to that,...funny thing is i am listening to come and get it.

is dillagence the instrumental album,..not the jaydee beat cd,..but the instrumentwl album..if so that was a classic. the jay dee beat cd was lacking..

Abso-fukking-lutely....

Not.

Go look at Pharoahe Monch's discography. He's dropped nothing but classics so far.


pharoah has no classic solo albums.

his first one is high rating,..the one's after are outdated rhyme wise and unfocused all over.

his period when he was writing for puff was wack as phuck and the album around then is awful, too.
monch was puff's wackest ghostwriter ever.

you can't give puff no verse thst is not technically sound,..as it will expose him even further.

as puff has no emcee skill or style to draw on to give his awful vocal performance some much meeded justice with some monch verses.

puff with monch as gw, was the worst shyt i ever endured.

So nobody knows about these albums nikkas are listing but those rappers are touring all over the country? :rudy:

^^^
This is the correct answer.

french motana and wacka flocka are touring all over the country, wtf is your point?


if your album had no sort of impact its not a classic, people are just naming there favorite albums.

Section 80, Blueprint, Black Album, Stillmatic, Reflection Eternal, and BE, lol@ anyone saying WTT is a classic album



lol at your huff ass list too.

that red cover reflection eternal album was just overrated off nostalgia.

from lack of diversity in the mainstream marketplace starving for the days of rawkus before the murdoch exposal.

that shyt was huff-a-matic!!

talib is awful on that shyt,....

i was hoping mos would save the day but it was reflection eternal and not blackstar. so no such luck,....

if you want to listen to a dope talib with better skills.

youtube:

sun
radiate
if you like it,..get his album school of thought.

sun is prince's emcee and does what talib does way better and with better technical mastery, too.

i would say wtt, even though you didn't like it you cant deny the impact and influence it had

it was ye and jay making music they do not make well to begin with.

while trying to add glossy aristocratic jiggy feel to create overproduced wack versions of a genre they are not skilled in.

jay was okay in spots but not his usual self, at all lyrically or in vocal tonality.

having to carry him and ye over production in a genre.

they lack the tools and convincability to rap over effectively.

shyt was awful for a supposed ghetto trap album made by two jiggy/emo guys.

trying to fake it in a genre they have never been convincing and never made good music in.

shyt is like an updated bad version of jayz ha on loop, for a whole album.

shyt was like asking mac lethal to make a record with lil whyte over juicy with lex luger...

the combo was just doomed to fail, from the beginning as a flawed idea for an album.

there is only one good record on this:

ain't no love ho....

just this entire album sounds like a toy and culture thief.

trying to play up to being embraced by a culture he is not a part of.

it sounds ghostwritten to,..which is why i am glad the truth came out about this record and game's inability to write for real.

this is for the locker room.

anyway,....this album is weird cause the eclectic weird jazzy shyt is cold.

then the regular pop attempts or easy to grasp genrr stuff is wack.

whomever made this should have stuck to purely eclectic And tried to build a black bjork tyle of draw for monet.

she can operate in that genre,...she can not operate as a straight rnb artist cause she is to eclectoc for neo soul and kedsr and hidden beach are now irrelevent.


plus they could never have pulled it off cause her genre is to eclectic for neo soul as well.


they dropped the ball on this severely,...promising could be an artist headed for eclectic greatness if done right.

The only right answer.

I'd like to include MBDF but it didn't really have an impact



blueprint was the start of jay makes my spirit is soon to be broken soft ballroom music.

only replay value was expanded on the next album with mop.

that marginalized and exposed jay as going to soft.

for a dude whose draw is built off being bigboss from the cartoon cops on wax.

serious disappointment and it was not the classic released on 9/11.

the classic released on 9/11 was system of a down toxicity.

produced by ric rubin and it was gwar meets metal brilliant perfect album greatness.

:rudy: shyt is a classic, cut it out. I would even go as far as to say thats the only certified certified classic in almost a decade. Its almost perfection in every way. I actually went to the store and bought this album it was so good but considering i own her whole catalog hardcopy i was gonna do it anyways.

Greatest Story Never Told. No one mentions how GSNT and WTT was Just Blaze and Kanye finally battling outside of a Jay Z project and Just Blaze won.


great album content wise spoiled by the same delays that killed lifestyles of the poor and dangerous.

i am also not sure if it came out when originally released would it have done well either.

shame too,..as the content and execution was a breathe of fresh air when it was released.

yet i can't say it was a classic.

even if it was released when it originally was intended.
