Yo Chris when you gonna explain to people why you got shot 4 times and died within minutes and Pac got shot 4 times and lost a lung and lived up to 7 days

:youngsabo:

You got a good answer for us chris?

:youngsabo:

fukk outta here. What I look like rolling around in a wheelchair like a cripple. I bet you got a poster of Tupac with his shirt off in your bedroom fakkit. nikkaz having man crushes on topless overnight thug ain't a good look. I bet you go to bed every night with a poster of Pac covered in baby oil taped to the ceiling, hoping one day the tape finally gives way and pac slowly glides down into your arm for some thug love.

Life after Death, Your favorite rappers favorite album.

Smh at this turning to a big vs pac thread. LAD is clearly a classic.
AEOM is my favorite hiphop album period,but that's neither here nor there.
LAD is to 1997 as AEOM is to 1996.
They personify the year in which they came out,both had multiple classic singles and album cuts that were also very famous off word of mouth or just hearing multiple people bump them as they rode by.

When i see either of these albums dissed,i know nikkas was either not around or they was just hating.

nikkas just wanna make platinum threads or some shyt I guess...

So an album with 24 tracks, with only two (maybe three) songs that anyone EVER has a gripe with, and damn near every track on the album is remembered by anyone that's been listening to hip-hop since that time... but it's not a classic or even close. :comeon:

Nobody ever has a legit reason or anything better than "I don't like Nasty Boy" "every song on it ain't a 5/5", etc. It's too late to even contend that this album is not a classic. And it's funny that people make these bold broad statements like this based off their own opinions of one or two tracks... show me a double album (w/ the possible exception of AEOM) where damn near every song on it is well-remembered. I'll wait.

i agree in some sort of way, it IS classic due to the circumstances and no one can deny it's a important part of hip hop history. BUT, objectively if it was just his sophmore album and it didn't go down like it dide...its a 4.5/5 to 5/5 but not classic status, just really good

I only call albums classics, based solely off the music. I don't care that everyone had the album, or the legacy it left, the trends it started or the "impact" it had.

There are a few less than stellar tracks..Playa Hater, I Love the Dough, Nasty Boy, Another, Hypnotize...Kick in the Door & Long Kiss Goodnight aren't really that special lyrically. Also, the album doesn't flow well at all. Like I said, you start it off with Somebody's Gotta Die, then it goes into Hypnotize? It seems like it's ok to be truthful about any album cept for Biggie's.

How can an album with like 8 classic songs on it not be a classic?

People saying "I don't fukk with Mo Money Mo Problems and Hypnotize "when they are arguable the biggest hit records ever released by a New York emcee (on the same album)


:snoop:

Attention Coli Poster... Just because you personally don't like something has no affect on rather its classic or not...


I don't personally like Star Wars or The Titanic...Every time I see either movie on I turn the channel...Does that mean they aren't classics?

:snoop:

does 8 songs even cover a 3rd of that album?

so a hit record is automatically a classic record now?

if you dont like star wars or titanic, then f*ck those movies. its sounds like youre just running with the crowd and saying that LAD is a classic because thats what you were taught to believe by propaganda.

basically that.

people go on & on about its impact, but the impact was already there before people even heard the album.

at the end of the day, most of the commercial tracks are generic & alot of the dark tracks are boring. and to this day, i still regret dropping all that cash on this album because i didnt get $30 worth of pleasure from it, and i couldve just dubbed it and bought 2 other albums with that money instead.

and theres tons of people out there that dont see this album as a true classic. these dudes are lying to themselves if they think this is just some internet chit.

Again...nikkas need to stop speaking like they speak for EVERYBODY...

To be honest personally I like RTD....but to say Life After Death is not a classic is just :wtb:...
