If we re using classic in its most strictest of definitions, then alooooot of albums wouldn't be considered classic
But if fukkin stillmatic, and blueprint and hell hath no fury are called classics then fuk yes dogg food is a classic and pacs got three to his name

I can't believe I'm the 1st to mention:
any Master P or Tru or Silk or C Murder or Mystikal albums.

18 year olds would call Ferg's joint a classic.... they don't have the sense or experience of listening to music, yet, to know better. Tons of stuff I listened to back in the day, I would scrunch my face up at, now.

Me saying e 40, whom I like more than you, is a lesser mc than 3 stacks does not equal bay hate.

Seeing that "Old head Reasonable Doubt" thread, ....I will admit that Jay-Z kinda forced people into believing the CD was something special.
It IS a great CD. But people really didn't think so initially, and then when the source re-reviewed it and gave it 5 mics, that was corny as hell, but it also kind of solidified how Jay-Z pretty much raped your ears.
But there are also other CD's that are championed by the "masses" and "purists" as timeless pieces, and just aren't. For whatever reason, some of these works have the "classic" label attached to them, and me being me, I just can't see it? Who Am I? I AM HIP HOP. I've been around long enough and is from the same concrete that produced these tales, so my opinion is fact. In the words of the Great Angel Garcia: YOU DONT KNOW NOTHING, I KNOW EVERYTHING!
So if I say it aint a classic, it aint a classic.
And these CD's? Aint Classics, B.
Ice Cube- Amerikkkas most wanted. I literally have 2 songs of this on my ipod. I bought it. Just took off the quick interlude with Flavor Flav and Who's the Mack. Thats it. How is this justified as a game-changing, or life long collection of hip hop songs in order, I have no idea.
Dogg Pound- Dogg Food. Another CD I bought. No Songs on my ipod at all. If someone held a gun to my head and asked me to recite just 1 song from this tape, I couldn't.
Chronic 2001- Another ear rape. Where you were forced to call it classic just because of the Name attached to it. This CD is not game changing or forever listenable. To be honest.......its actually kinda wack.
Thats the 3 I can think of off top, based on their accolades constantly being talked about and heralded as music thats supposed to last forever. Hell no, them shyts is garbage, B.
And im not making this a west coast bash fest, because I started the thread straight outta Brooklyn.
But based on the circumstances behind the releases and diff. attributes ,
Smiff N Wessun first CD shyts all over Dogg Food
Capone N Noreaga 1st CD shyts all over Dogg Food
Fat Joes 2nd CD shyts all over Amerikkkas most wanted (I counted his NWA Project, and the fact that they both switched production teams, etc...like I said "circumstances")
So since u don't hae albums from 15-18 years ago on your ipod in 2013, it doesn't make it a classic?
Good shock thread tho breh.

HULK SMASH!
Why is this not a classic?
This was the album that got legit Hip Hop heads listening to West Coast rap again paving the way for rappers like Kendrick to blow up off of non-Blaxploitation, gangbang, palm trees and low rider rap.
