Do you consider 'Distant Relatives' featuring Nas & Damien Marley a classic album?

[Nobodyknows]

Just downloaded this again. Immediatly got that feeling. So many great tracks on this album. Do you consider it a classic?

I could see people calling it a personal classic but as far as it being touted as a universally acclaimed classic? Nah, not even close to be honest with you.

I like the album and it had some VERY deep and introspective lyrics at times, but I always felt that album lacked a STANDOUT track that leaves you feeling .

No, but this is where people will immediately confuse "classic" with "album they really liked"

 

[Brosef]

Nah, not even in Nas' top 5.

I consider it a personal classic, not a classic on the level of Illmatic or example.

"Nah mean"

 

[Hamza B.]

Yes.

Don't care what the pundits, experts, and writers consider "classic" at all. Never fully understood the distinction between "personal classic" and "classic classic". Music is about what moves you personally, not really about popularity, sales, or even cultural impact imo.

A classic is something you would sit your son down to listen to.

It was a good idea and it showed a rapper could step out of his comfort zone

"Friends" and "Patience" were just . Honestly, I like Distant Relatives more than Untitled.
