I would definitely say so. What makes it such a classic to me is the atmosphere, there is no other Hip Hop project I've heard that was as grandiose, or epic. It felt like a Hip Hopera. Matter fact, there were few albums as epic as MBDTF period. shyt felt like someone took an ancient mythological Epic poem and put it into a Rap album. Just a classic.
Dopest description of what that album feels like that I've read to date. Daps.

A wack thing about the internet is that people get to ask stupid questions or make stupid statements and you'll find a few cats agreeing with the stupidity.

If the internet existed in the 90s we would have 10 threads calling every certified classic an overrated album, specially the 80s cats would be on like Big Mel talking about how wack hiphop in the 90s is. How Nas couldn't see some random 80s rapper, how Pac was selling out hanging with with designers and Madonna and on.

Its a classic to me. I never understood the people saying the album was overproduced, just seems like yall cant appreciate the artistry to me. Maybe I just like dope as instrumentals more than yall.

Yeah its a classic to me. My only real problem with the album is Ross of Devil in a new dress. That beat change was wasted on him and just overall kills my enjoyment of the song. I just go "why Kanye?" :mindblown: every time I hear the song.
