[Mastamimd]

This was the best underground album that year, arguably the best album of the year period

This was definitely my AOTY for 01

 

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

Maybe I missed it earlier in the thread, but it’s crazy that nobody brought up Jada when his debut was proabably the most anticipated album of 2001.

5th grade was lit that year

-felt my first pair of titties
-witness our teacher slap the shyt out of one of our female classmate
-got on the pop warner team even though I never really liked football
-me and my sister might have been the target of kidnappers

Simple answer? It was a big disappointment

Aaliyah died.

Alicia Keys was running the world with "Fallin" and Songs In A Minor as a whole dominated R&B.

Mary J. Blige teamed with Dr. Dre and gave us a timeless club bangers in "Family Affair".

Usher grew up before us and dropped 8701, which is arguably his best work.

I was 8.

u said Nas ain't body/battle Roc when BOTH THE ROC AND NAS have said exactly just that after the fact (on record and in interviews), Freeway, Beans, State P, Dame all caught bars from Nas (and threw bars back)

u got dementia, get that checked out

nas killed JAY. not the roc.
nas tried to name names, but when SP responded, nas didnt want any smoke.
yall need to stop this bullchit.

and i see you backed off the figgas argument, but cant admit that you were wrong. so i already see what time it is.

WTF????? The year produced THREE classics (Blueprint, Stillmatic, The Fix) and the greatest hip hop battle of all time!!!

blueprint is barely classic at best.
the other 2? not so much. the fix didnt drop that year anyway, even if it was a classic.

greatest hip-hop battle of all-time??? PLEASE dont tell me that youre referring to jay/nas.

I've said it a few times here.

I wasn't impressed by The Blueprint. And no black people I knew bumped it. But all the white folks did.

youre going too far now.

i agreed with what you said initially tho, about the blueprint being boosted by media outlets.

Magnificent time & magnificent time for music.
