You said, Not that Iconic, downplaying it from being truly Iconic. That's my point, dimwitted clown.
I believe and say it's a truly an Iconic album, especially in the hip hop world.

The fact that you keep saying "in the hip hop world" is also downplaying it from being truly Iconic, ever stop and think about that you idiot?

I am being realistic you thick skulled fukk, i made my point so end of discussion.

the fact that you have keep adding that on to the purple tape is downplaying it

who the hell says "Illmatic is iconic ....especially in the hip hop world" ? no one because you don't need to, It's like saying "Thriller is iconic.....in the Pop/R&B world"

music is music, why are you putting OB4CL in a box for?

It's iconic period...Thriller is a pop record and is more universally recognised.
The Purple tape and even Illmattic at one point was much more appreciated in the hip hop circle..in the early 90's..
every genre can have an iconic piece..something you are failing to understand.

you claim it to be an iconic piece of work in respect to ALL OF MUSIC when your initial post just said "Only Built is iconic in the hip hop world.." implying it's only iconic in respect to that genre and listeners of that genre, seems to me you are doing some backtracking here.

let me just state it clear and end it here, Purple Tape is an Iconic Album..and It's a Hip Hop Iconic Record.

You made the post about it being Not that Iconic..

Was so excited when someone did a thread a few days ago but didn't know exactly what the project was and was hoping it would be this. I'm buying asap, gotta support the greats and older heads in hip hop.

I hope they get some talented people to handle it, not Amhed from 125th because he shot a couple videos and has a camera.

The Illmatic doc is dope and serious. Ghost's wit alone could make this one epic, as long as it's done right. Hopefully Nas does an interview since he's on the album.

What if they could get Tarantino involved....dude is a major Wu stan lol

Tarantino said his favorite storytellers of all time are Bob Dylan and Ghostface. So who knows :manny:

I'm an old head. I was in college when OB4CL came out. It was an era where classics were being dropped left and right and THIS album was a cut above. nikkas literally changed their whole style up b/c of this album. Nobody was really into the mafioso shyt before this album. Cats didn't have multiple names/personas for themselves before this. Cats are still doing shyt today that started with this album.
