I give Drake props for that. (Future as well)

the rest of these nikkas definitely need features

French montana, asap rocky, 2 chainz, meek mill, ace hood, etc.

all need a feature​

Only nikka making albums with no fukking filla :heh:

You can throw dudes like Big Sean, or Cudi in there too.

Kid Cudi's Man On The Moon series are by far the most cohesive and atmospheric albums Hip Hop can provide



Otherwise, i agree

I kind of agree. Big Sean was the first to come to mind...

And I wouldn't even want to hear a full song with just French Montana let alone a whole album...

Maybe if cats would stop just trying to compile hot songs/singles and throw them together and actually make a album with a cohesive theme or concept it would be a little easier to enjoy their albums. :ld:

Kendrick, Cole, Drake, Sean, Action Bronson, Joey Badass and more could all do it.

Most of them have 15-16 or even 18-19 songs on their albums though.
Nowadays you need hooks too, which shouldn't count. Unless you use sampled hooks etc. in 2013, songs without dope ass hooks are not accepted unless it's a straight spitting track.
Mostly I think they just put features on there as a marketing trick, not cause they need it.


Who has ever done an album without features though? And I'm not talking about 9 track albums.

Me Against The World, Kingdom Come (had a lot of hooks though) and The Black Album are the only (successful) album I can think of, of the top with no rapping features.
