Some of these albums are only being listed by a couple of people. This thread is essentially for albums like Documentary, Carter 3, MMLP, Graduation, or even a GRODT, where there's songs outside of the singles that aren't acknowledged even though those albums were huge and shifted things when they dropped. I'm seeing albums like Paid In Full listed or a Life After Death or 2001.
2001 has ALOT in common with those other albums you mentioned at the top of your post. i'd even say that a couple of those albums are better than 2001.
and a lot of people never fell for the "life after death" hype. sorry.
