Is Birds In The Trap Singing Brian McKnight A Classic?

[Guvnor]

I mean think about it, it has all the components.

The Dope cover

Dope and impactful music to the point where Chris Brown bit his style on Pills and Automobiles and several others have as well.

It introduced us to Nav who people thought was Justin Beiber at first for whatever that may be worth

It has a title that's so weird and quirky like a meme from our internet era.

It something I can play again and again, take a long break from it and then dust it off so to speak and it still sounds incredible.

With that said think about it Is it a classic? Does it have potential to be a classic?

If you ask the right people yeah. Pick up the phone is a classic alone

 

[666 ReVeNGe 666]

Hell no

 

[Guvnor]

Hell no

Well why not? Don't you stan playboy carti?

 

[Sauce Dab]

Hell nah

And anybody who's not knew that wasn't Bieber on that song. Nav had millions of plays on soundcloud before that song came out

 

[blizzard man]

pick up the phone is fire but i dont think this joint needs to be in a 'classic' discussion, didnt it come out last year?

I knew it wasn't Beiber but some people did think it was Beiber for real lol.

True, it might be too soon but I think it has the potential to be. I mean it has impact for sure but time will tell. I'm not one of those people who call everything classic but I feel this is close when you compare it to a lot of the mumble rap and the music of today, I feel it will stand the test of time.

i dont even remember what other joints were on it

His albums are well put together, can't even front

I grade Scott on a curve because he mix and masters as well as produces his own shyt. Might not be the most lyrical but he can make good music. Coordination, Goosebumps, and Coco are all solid songs. I don’t remember playing much after that but that man has a loyal fan base they already deem him a great saying he dropped back to back classics (Rodeo) I like the nikka but not goat worthy time will tell though

Says who? Pretty sure Mike Dean mixed and mastered those 2 albums and Travis kinda gives "direction" in what he wants to hear and his sonics but I wouldn't call that mixing and mastering but you're right, the guy does know how to put together a collection of good songs and crafts really nice projects. He's not my favorite rapper by any means but I do have a bunch of joints from Travis I do enjoy and some other verses he's on because he's always good for a guest spot. I think he has his own lane and sound now but there was a point where he was jacking Drake/Kanye/Kid Cudi flows/style pretty heavy and I like all of those guys individually and thought it was corny. But he's grown into his own voice now I'd say

Ok cool I never knew. I was going to add correct me if I’m wrong so thanks for the info. I can now grade him more harder but his production is still pretty A-1 can’t think of many other rappers that can rap off those futuristic kind of beats well.

 

[itsyoung!!]

personal classic to me

played it more than most albums I can think of in past few years
