Every now and then someone says Madvillainy was a classic. That album had no impact.

In order to become a classic it must stand the test of time so

Madvillainy has definitely stood the test of time

my favourite joint was this though

crazy soulful, not many tracks you'll find that sound like this.

Stacy Epps is dope. I went to school with her at the art institute of Atlanta.

agree to disagree

Madvillainy is school shooting music for black folk. It's still a classic tho. Not every album gotta be played in the streets for it to be classic

This is a cult classic and I don't mean that in a negative way, but the average rap listener today may not even know this project exists

the average rap listener today can't name a hip hop album more than 15 years old. Trust me, they haven't heard of Paid in Full or Criminal MInded either.

I see it pop up in essential album lists (mostly hipster types), and folks on here (most recently with the Alchemist vs Madlib debate), etc.. But I've never heard anyone bumping that album on the street. If they did it was in their earbuds/headphones.

I don't think it can be a classic record if it didn't have at least some impact on the culture, and it had no bearing on the direction of the music or culture. Came and went.
