Drake can't hold down a single album.

Homie could definitely hold down the 2 discs with singing and rapping. Plus some features from the likes of Future, Wayne, PND, Kanye, whoevers new that he wants to leech on, etc

You think Drake could hold down anybody for 2 hours of continuous music.

You think any artist of any genre can keep listeners invested with a singular project for 120 Minutes.

Keep in mind,

that's a full lenght movie
Or Sunday service at a white church

That's four Seinfield episodes.

240 Draft King commercials.

I get what you're saying with length but honestly a strong artist can make it interesting.

It seems like artists had no problems dropping double albums back in the day but these days it's nonexistent almost. The last one I know of would be UGK or technically Wayne with the Drought 3.

So my question is, what artists today could hold down 2 discs for a major release?

My picks are as follows:

Drake - Love him or hate him, dude would bring some heat to the table. He's also diverse enough to to keep the span of 2 discs from being boring.

Kendrick Lamar - Potential to hang with the goats. I'm talking All Eyez, Life After, Bone, UGK. This would be a pretty easy 5 mic album if he kept it diverse with aome GKMC type hits with the heart of TPAB.

Rick Ross - Rozay on his mobster big vito shyt for one disc and trap bangers on the other. Don't know why homie hasn't thought of it. Double albums = double the soundscans so it'd be an easy way to go gold out the gate.

Kanye - I don't know why he never did one. Might be too late but it would be interesting. I think it would end up BP2 status though.
So basically every mainstream artist.:martin:

Not exactly. I chose mainstream examples because mainstream acts have more of a likelyhood of getting the chance to put a double disc out. Bigger budgets, bigger features, etc.

Someone who isn't mainstream that I'd want to see hold it down is Big Krit. Dude would be killing it with all the different styles he could do.

Lupe Fiasco- He's tried to do a double and a triple disc but the Label shut him down both times.
LupEND... :to:

Was gonna be the grand finale that completed the masterpiece trifecta of F&L, The Cool, LupEND. Featuring production from Soundtrakk, Q-Tip, The Neptunes, etc. shyt woulda been a game changer.

Atlantic robbed us of a classic. We got Lasers instead :mjcry:
