This album is definitely easier on the ear for the average listener. If you play S80 for the average person they probably won't feel it. Definitely an acquired taste kinda joint.
GKMC is just an undeniable masterpiece
I agree with it being an acquired taste and that GKMC is a bit easier disagree with the masterpiece part though

@ you dumb @$$ kids.dont you know that XXL has blatantly been in bed with aftermath for a decade now?
@ XXL being prestigous.
that nikka's metacritic score better be 
XXL rates albums from "S" (poor) to "XXL" (classic). Initially, editors awarded XXL status to only nine albums:
The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill by Lauryn Hill
The Blueprint by Jay-Z
Get Rich or Die Tryin' by 50 Cent
Be by Common
Late Registration by Kanye West
Hell Hath No Fury by Clipse
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy by Kanye West
Life Is Good by Nas
good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
A later issue in December 2007 re-rated and retroactively rated some albums and gave XXLs to:
The Chronic by Dr. Dre *
Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) by Wu-Tang Clan *
Illmatic by Nas *
The Diary by Scarface *
The Infamous by Mobb Deep *
All Eyez on Me by 2Pac *
Reasonable Doubt by Jay-Z *
The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory by 2Pac *
Life After Death by The Notorious B.I.G. *
2001 by Dr. Dre
The Marshall Mathers LP by Eminem
The Lost Tapes by Nas
The College Dropout by Kanye West
Asterisk (*) denotes an album that was released before the existence of XXLe, meaning this is their original rating, not a re-rate.

Exactly. It aint even that deep. I can very, VERY rarely play an album after a few listens without wanting to skip a couple tracks. So when I come accross an album like this for me its classic.
Amazing music from beginning to end.
