Many considered Blueprint to be the album of 2001 (I don't and didn't then, but is what it is)

I do think American Gangster was the best of '07 though.

Unfortunately, no. IMO RD and Blueprint 1 are his best works. RD faced incredibly tough competition the year it was released; enough that it couldn't conclusively be called album of the year. Blueprint isn't as good as RD, but is closer to being album of the year for 2001. Despite that, I think it still had enough competition that it couldn't be called a clear winner, though many people do.

I still think to this day The Realness by Cormega shyts on both BP and Stillmatic...people just give both those albums an unfair bias because of who they are but if you haven't heard The Realness you're fukking up

Hmm some interesting choices....

BP1? Stillmatic anyone?
TBA was good, I personally like it more than GRODT but u can't deny GRODT's impact. It was the album of 2003 easily.
AG? :beli: Graduation, The Cool....

Hes never had a real blowout

Blueprint was better. Let's not pretend Braveheart Party and Smokin' didn't exist. Ether didn't Febreeze those songs
and if you're gonna judge "impact", then Blueprint wins by a mile, Jay-Z /Nas beef aside.
