Lets talk about FORCED "Classics"...West coast finna get they jaws tight

[Consigliere]

Who are these "gatekeepers" and where do I sign up?

Pretty sure you have to do something strange for some change with Elliot Wilson.

 

[JuvenileHell]

Still sorta confused over people looking down on Knowledge God...one of my fav Rae songs.

Forced classics though? Uh...MDBTF

 

[Big Mel]

I wonder if Nas or Ice Cube have even heard Below The Heavens.

 

[torcher]

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Diplomatic Immunity or any of Cams albums. He has his moments but he doesnt have anything close to a classic album

 

[Big Mel]

I mentioned them.

 

[JuvenileHell]

Yeah, I be at folks calling Purple Haze a classic

 

[torcher]

I forgot about We Are The Streets

 

[Wacky D]

I wonder if Nas or Ice Cube have even heard Below The Heavens.

I know wacky d hasn't heard it.

is it even worth listening to?

I stopped bothering with cult-computer albums a long time ago. theyre almost always trash.

 

[Poitier]

Below The Heavens is nice. Is it classic? No. Is it better than GKMC or Take Care? Yea. If Blu wasn't a drug addict, he could have had rap in a chokehold and maybe Drake never exists...

 

[MINT]

below the heavens sucks dude... and please don't even talk about take care in a classic thread

 

[SteelCitySoldier]

You out of your Gotdamn mind. Real muthafukaz that heard RD when it first dropped knew that shyt was gem and then you follow up by shyttin on the Westcoast albums that you picked...FOH nikka. There are some WC albums that get hella praise and shouldn't but the ones you named would not be in that list

 

[MINT]

reasonable doubt is a forced classic, it doesn't even have the quality.

It's a good little new millennium true school album. A bit light in the ass though. I don't see you really being to choked up with it.

got to the 4th page before I rage quit this thread.

i wouldn't have a problem with anyone calling dogg food a classic. i was going to say that 2001 doesn't deserve a nod, but then i went to amazon and looked at the tracklisting. as far as complete albums go, it has a great signature sound throughout the whole play time. the only bad shiit about it, is the interludes/skits. i'm actually wondering why i haven't played this album more.
