What Are the Most Disappointing Hip Hop Albums Ever
- Thread starter A Tribe Called Quest ™
- Start date
DMX - The Great Depression.... I think it went platinum n it had some bangers but you could tell X had reached his peak and was only gonna start declinin' after this album.... Matter of fact X's decline started with Then There Was X... It wasn't easy to say at the time cuz of its commercial success... I own his first four albums, haven't even checked for him after that...
Jay-Z - Blueprint... I know I'm gonna get a lotta hate for this, but it's true... I liked TBA better... I was expectin' more from Jay with this project, but at this point he became corny to me, all that H to izzo garbage and he really dropped off lyrically n flow-wise with this album in my opinion... He never recovered in my own opinion (I think the reason is he became really rich n started worryin' more about his businesses)... TBA was hot cuz of the production....
Jadakiss - Debut Album... Always been a huge Jada fan but I gotta recognize he can't carry a whole album by himself.... I was expectin' more production wise also.... Features N group projects r his lane
Nas -Nastradamous - You kinda was expectin' this cuz of the huge drop off in quality from IWW to I Am... But damn, its like the GOAT ain't give a fukk about this shyt anymore... Thankfully the battle with the Camel happened n it ignited fire into his love for hip hop again or else we woulda lost him by the early 00s...
Eminem - Eminem Show, I was dissapointed in this album cuz I had just become a huge eminem fan off of MMLP... But this was real inconsistant bar 2 or 3 tracks I really fukk with includin' Till I Collapse... I was so dissapointed I didnt even wanna check for Encore when it dropped n I never did.... Safe to say TES was the last album I bought from him....
50 Cent -The Massacre... I was a huge 50 Cent fan n I fukked with this album for a while, but You always knew this wasn't GRODT quality... Still play some tracks off this album to this day, but it was the last 50 album I bought....
This is off the top of my head n Im only talkin bout albums I actually bought... Notice I ain't post any new albums cuz I stopped buyin records around 2004-5

territory, that black eyed peas pop turn left me and your first sentence said it all breh, that album is dope
i know a lot of people like this album but i remember getting a dub off a mate who just bought the cd, chucking it in my walkman & being disappointed. something about the beats i think just didn't sit well with me, i preferred the grimier style on the 1st album. i should go back and give it a fair go tho

i'm gonna chuck it on the iphone and give it a go over the next week
You'll defend Tical 0 but sh!t on Immobilarity, Marty?
As disappointed as I was in Immobilarity, it's leagues better than Tical 0.
The most disappointing albums for me has to be Lex Diamond Story, Canibus' debut and the Firm album.
