Is Nelly - Country Grammar a Hip-Hop classic?

[Zero]

You gotta be fuccin kidding me breh

One of these things is not like the other but this is what happens when we have been inundated with trash for so long even decent albums get elevated.

Nah, this is what happens when you let media dictate what "classics" you choose to hold up

It's crazy that cats be saying

COMMERCIAL COMMERCIAL

when low key

A lot of the album was bout dope, choppas and street shyt

And he turned that shyt INTO a commercially viable album

It's his least watered down project content wise

But hey let the Coli tell it

 

[Silkk]

nikka was literally talking about shooting/ killing innocent ppl on the lead single

 

[NegaDuck]

That whole fukkin first album is classic material

 

[Alvin]

Nelly wasn't generic. His sound was very specific to his area

We agree that flo-rida is generic AF

how? he has specific south florida theme's to his music.

Never Let Em C U Sweat

He don't sound like any Florida nikka I know.

 

[SirBiatch]

Nelly has classic songs but no classic albums (nor was he close).

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Picked up where Mase left off. There was Bone, MC Breed, Twista, Doe Or Die, Crucial etc but he was like first full fledged solo superstar from the Midwest. Hit after hit...it was a big one for hip hop. Wasn't necessarily classic material top to bottom but it certainly had an impact in terms of influence

 

[CrimsonTider]

No, and it's kind of disturbing how many people voted yes. Just because you grew up on it doesn't make it a classic, shyt it's maybe his 3rd or 4th best album. You would have a better argument for Nellyville or Sweat/Suit

Are you trolling

Illmatic
Ready to Die
Wu Tang Forever
the Infamous
The Chronic
Country Grammar

Stupid post

Country Grammer got just as much love as those albums

Yes

So is Nellyville

nellyville has a legit argument as well

Nellyville is

 

[R=G]

Hip hop classic? Nope
Commercial success? Big time
