Best Rapper Alive - 2008 (IF YOUR MVP CHOICE ISN'T ON POLL, MAKE A REQUEST IN THREAD)

[Deltron]

paper trail was a dope ass album

 

[wingstop]

2008 was actually one of the best in recent memory


Jeezy and TIP put much better albums than Wayne , Game had joints on LAX and a lot of the young class was dropping classic tapes (Cudi/Wale/Wiz) .


Wayne was dropping other tracks aside the album that bumped and Kanye dropped 808's


And the OG's like Bun B and Cube put out solid projects

Nah in terms of albums it has to be one of the weakest years of all time. Jeezy, ti, Wayne,nas, the game, etc all dropped underwhelming and average albums.

I remember 08 so vividly and remember people bumping Lupe/Wayne/Wale/TIP/Game/Jeezy but not Nas

Jeezy and TI put out good ass albums , Game had his moments but I agree with the other two

I used to be a huge Nas stan when I was 6 , I remember seeing Hip Hop Is Dead on MTV Jams and was and then Cant Forget About you thankfully I grew up

It's between T.I. and Wayne, and Weezy edges him out. Jeezy also gets a special shoutout cuz The Recession is his best album in my opinion.

Nas had the greatest album content-wise and lyrically was sharp as ever, but the production left much to be desired. And it's not that most of the beats on the album are bad there just... bland as fukk... background music.

The approach for that album was weak asf , dude was basically on some WE ALL ******S type shyt ... For the concept it was done poorly

Wayne, T.I, Kanye, Ross, and Nas are my top 5

Lol that part had me like "huh?"

I get what he was tryna do but that kinda takes away from the main subject of the album.

Other than that I thought the concepts were great on the album.
