LOL @ "Taught" so just because most of everyone that heard the album ended up loving it they were "Taught" to love it by the media and "Machine" and not their own ears? Like I said you can feel what you want that doesn't change what the album achieved and is. The Pun exampled proves that Death don't make nothing classic, the music has to do it on it's own. It's 15 years later, just lookin at the state of rap now this album still stands as a shinning light. Of course there's people who feel the way you do. Some people think "ILLmatic" is overrated no piece of art is universally accepted as perfect. But that doesn't change the fact it's a classic. Sometimes people need to understand that personal opinions can't change what a particular piece of art achieved. Again if someone says "Thriller" is wack does that make it so? Does that erase it's impact, success, influence and awards it received? nope it's just that person not feeling it. LAD status at this point in time is cemented.

youre doing alot of talking in circles and stutter-steppin in this post.

yes, we were taught to hold the album in high-regard before it dropped. do you not remember the radio endlessly playing album cuts as if they were singles? and referring to tracks such as "going back to cali" & "nasty boy" as classics? i remember like half of the songs on primetime radio countdowns were album cuts from LAD. i witnessed no chit like that in my life.

and you keep trying to run with this pun chit. MAN DIDNT I JUST SAY that big's album wasnt overrated just because he died? so why did you just cut & paste the same bullchit that i just shot down? youre stannin right now homie. btw, arent you the same dude that tried to say that biggie had the best verse in "notorious thugs" simply because he was out of his element on some 'A for effort' type chit?

oh and YOU MADE THE WRONG MOVES


BAD COMPARISONS
illmatic is much more universally accepted as a classic than LAD. bad comparison.

as for thriller, ALOT of oldheads that actually came up listening to mike jack dont hold thriller in super-high regard the way youve been taught to hold it up. youre kinda proving my point there.

People on message boards go against the grain for the sake of going against the grain, but so many do it that the grain has totally changed and the overrated (biggie, eminem, wayne) become underrated. IRL Biggie is universally top 5, keep telling yourself wack ass common is better than big if that makes you feel a superior hiphop head

top5.. I can quote biggie rhymes for days..lyrically he shyts on most rappers.

No he does not, the biggest misconception about Biggie is that he was some super lyrical MC when he was not. We was above average, but the thing that sets biggie apart was his Godly flow.
Lyric wise he isnt top 10.

 

[OH SOHH TRILL]

top 50?

no hes not. theres no such thing as a universal top 5.

theres people that will say melle mel, kool moe dee & grandmaster caz are the goats and wouldnt even consider biggie for top 5. and on the flipside, people who think big is undisputed top 5, barely even know who those guys are.

top 5

I make your mouthpiece obese like Della Reese
When I release, you loose teeth like Little Cease
nikka please
Blood floods your dungarees
And that's just a half of my warpath
Laugh now cry later, I rhyme greater
than the average player hater, and spec-tators
Buy my CD twice
They see me in the streets they be like yo he nice
But that's on the low doe'
be the cats with no dough, tried to play me at my show
I pull out 4-4's, and go up in they clothes
Short-change nikkas
snort-cane nikkas
extortion came quicker
Bought the Range' nikka

biggie rhyming was incredible
