Moments when you thought rappers would drop a classic

[JustCKing]

When he started the album with The Prelude

Greatest let down ever. Sounded like something that would've been on Reasonable Doubt.

 

[Iverson_64]

Chance The Rapper with The Big Day.

One of the biggest disappointments I've ever had in hip hop.

 

[TaxCollector13459]

Big krit

 

[WaveGang]

lil baby 2nd album

 

[Professor K.]

The leadup to TPAB had me thinking Kendrick was about to drop a *lyrical* masterpiece where he was going crazy on every track. It ended up being a *musical* masterpiece, but I still feel okeydoked to this day with that whole "best rapper alive" rollout and ain't looked at Kenny the same since

 

[TaxCollector13459]

Aye T.I. My all time great personally

But that nikka Luda dragged big bro on this shii frfr.

This album seem like it came and went but bra won a Grammy for it. But it ain’t a memorable album imo

 

[trillanova]

Yeezus

 

[Mastamimd]

DOA

 

[28 Gramz]

I thought Carter 3 was gonna be the greatest album ever after this song/performance

 

[SteelCitySoldier]

This shyt dropped and I was like “Beans finna drop a classic” then the album dropped and 50% of the verses he “ freestyled” was on the album. Don’t get me wrong the album still was fire but it didn’t hit the same hearing the verses again.

 

[-Quikness-]

After hearing Gunplays verse on cartoons n cereal

 

[Black Miller]

After Cole dropped Miss America and that one promo video, I thought Born Sinner would be a classic

i thought born sinner was dope, but that trailer video with the song at the end i'm still waiting for that full song to drop. it's been over 10 years, and i heard he never releasing it to the public. something about the beat was too powerful compared to what he rapped on it.

every album after born sinner i was waiting for it, but i gave up that ghost

 

[MJ Truth]

That's how you know the industry is dead. People cry about how rappers don't make good music anymore. How lyricism is dead

The Herbert album comes out and gets little to no fanfare

Rod Wave has sold out stadium tours

Not that Rod is bad. Just shows what "fans" value these days

It was always this way breh.

 

[DaveyDave]

I don’t have a song to prove my point but I thought after Proof died Em would go straight Hip Hop on his next album. cut out all the corny dumb shyt and drop a serious straight up Hip Hop album to honour his friend and the culture he loves. Still has yet to happen and at this point it never will.

Wasn't it around that time Em was supposed to drop an album titled King Mathers?
