J Cole Says 50 Cent's GRODT Is The BEST ALBUM OF ALL TIME

[Jigganaut]

Your name references Hov breh. Surely you not that dumb. Of all the things you attack that breh over, you're guilty of too. Sit ya lame ass down breh

And for some one like you to call me lame is hilarious boy my life better than yours guaranteed

Not true. And I don’t get why people online keep saying this.

In '96, all of the Hip Hop magazines were going crazy for RD with the reviews. XXL and The Source loved it. By '97, everyone considered RD to be a classic. Back then, you didn't call something a "classic" the same day it dropped, like the weirdos do today. You let it cook. Even the non-Hip Hop spots like Pitchfork and Rolling Stone gave it near perfect scores. It's always been universally loved, by both the streets and mainstream media.

You couldn't go anywhere in NYC during that era without people quoting lines from the album, or hearing cars blasting tracks from it. The impact was crazy. Kendrick said when RD dropped, his crew couldn't stop playing the album. And when he was working on Section 80, he tweeted that he felt it was better than Illmatic. Wayne said he would study RD when it came out because he was trying to come up with a style for himself. Crazily impactful album. Not just for fans when it dropped, but also for future legend MC's.

Foh

Rd wasn't considered a classic in 97 nikkas just looked at hov like the first album better than this volume 1 shyt.

If I can't do it, then homie it can't be done!!!!

 

[MrSpook]

[BaRRyG]

Def influential af, but I can’t front, while GRODT is a dope album but NO WHERE near true classics.

It’s brehs opinion, I just think it’s stupid af, especially compared to true ten top caliber albums.

Why isn't it a true classic?

Unrelated but the Get Rich soundtrack is also a great 50/G Unit project that aged pretty well. Nice mix of production and features on there

[No Homo]

Ok i can understand people arguing him that its not the best album ever but some of yall in here saying it aint even a classic album?

 

[JealousOnesEn_V]

To do what?
That would almost make sense if I cared what you think.

You do care that’s why you’re replying to everyone Connor

 

[Silver Surfer]

I remember when Rihanna punked him to his face when he started growing his hair out...."you a dread now?"

 

[Tony D'Amato]

i dont think cole gives a fukk about that.

I also think he got a pigmentation procedure like RDJ in Tropic Thunder. He looking darker lately

 

[NZA]

if im being honest, there are only 2 thriller songs i even want to hear. way more GRODT songs that i mess with.

 

[Juggalo Fred]

Great Milenko is the best album ever

 

[BigMoneyGrip]

“nikka, that watch is nice, that's what you bought for me?
That chain is nice, that's what you bought for me?
Them earrings is nice, that's what you bought for me?
Take that shyt off, move, I'll break you off properly
I get mine the fast way, ski mask way
Make money, make money, money, money
nikka, if you ask me, this the only way
Take money, take money, money, money”

People try to rewrite history with GRODT.

NO ONE was saying this in 03.

GRODT was definitely up there. Every song was playable at the time. I was in HS and im from Queens so maybe im being biased but it was the best thing out at the time. It reminded me of Its Dark And Hell Is Hot being that it was a clean play through with no skips. Over the years I've learned to not like 50s personalityand he's fallen off musically but GRODT is an undisputed classic. Not the GOAT but top 5 imo. Definitely not better than thriller though. Thats just some weirdo shyt to compare the two
