Kanye's College Dropout and Graduation. shyt left a long lasting change to the game.

I see what your saying but I feel the impact of those were more subtle and as you said long standing. The immediate impact of Get Rich or Die Trying imo was crazy at the time, had the whole world on smash.

I can see if someone says GRODT isnt a classic (which I disagree w/) but to say its THE MOST OVERRATED album I cant agree.

Yeah u technically named about that many,and half wuz obviously based off group material,a few were undeniable and the rest debatable as hell....the south ain't that strong in the top 10 department solo wise for u to act like me puttin Plies in it wuz a travesty wuz my point,unpopular opinion yeah,but not the blashemy you made it out to be....I respect most those nikkas in your list more than Plies based off what they did in groups,but we lumpin in group work and pretending nikkas who wuz great in groups wuz greatsolo artist? Would u ever say Krayzie Bone, Bizzy Bone,Run,Big Boi,Andre 3K,8ball should be in a goat disccusion with Cube,Face,Pac,Nas and Jay:comeon:..

And it wuznt like that at all with Pusha,he cool even tho I always preffered Malice,but be serious just as Jcole what has he done in his solo career to be comparable to Plies?what classic songs he got?that Fear Of God mixtape wuz extra forgettable,may never get his album out...I'm not seein the impact,and on top of that do nikkas in the south even fuk with Pusha like that and does he consider himself a southern artist:childplease:

And yes I do,I. Luved 400degreez,but I don't play it straight thru actually no more,ill chalk it up to real testament bein newer MAYBE....but as it stands imo Real Testament is classic to be held in high regard,people gon need more time to digest it....the anti Plies campaign at the time clouded a lot of folks judgements...might even say its better than 400 in a few more yrs,ill give it more time but Its in rotation more than 400 as of now.

when did being a great artist mean u had 2 be a solo artist??? Thats a dumb rule

I guest you are just gonna forget about plies career post 2007 and how terrible that it is. No artist i named ever put out material as bad as the realist. His first album was good, not classic, and nowhere as good as 400 degreez(a real classic) and after that he's been showing how much hes not versatile as an artist. That nikka only makes 3 songs and it always seems forced "songs for hoes", "Real song", and "goon song".

Other than The American Gangster album, Jay hasn't been relavant since 2001.

Uh, I don't like how some of these "opinions" are just inaccurate statements

how the fukk is jay irrelevant :what: he had his 1st #1 single in 09 and is probably more respected right now than ever before

Lowkey, I think there's def. a revisionist aspect now to that album now that more & more people just don't like 50. Not saying anyone specifically does that or anyone in here. Outside of Em's shyt (who seems to get a lot of hate on forums etc), GRODT more than any other album I think has been getting that "classic" tag stripped and replaced with "overrated" more & more in the last few years.

You know what kind of thread this is? :comeon:

I'm aware its a thread of unpopular opinions such as "ti > jay-z" or something but Jay being irrelevant is just historically inaccurate

Unless of course this is a skewed thread and most people are posting historically inaccurate statements as opposed to actual opinions

When talking best groups you wouldn't put Jeezy in the discussion just cuz he did Boyz In The Hood and lump his solo material in there.....maybe its just me but I don't compare group artist and solo artist tho,its a reason there's a great groups category and solo artist category....plies still droppped sum decent tapes after 2007 but I agree....with that said Juves catalog outside of 400degreez ain't that great,u got Solja Rags,and Juve the Great wuz solid,Gcode wuz okay.

Cash money/No limit late 90's is the worst hiphop has to offer as a genre of music, the absolute worst. Fucc anybody trying to elevate that era.

It was pretty bad with SLikk the Shocker and all, but not act like 2007 never happened.
