might as well throw every quality big budget release that early-mid 20s rap fans reminisce about.

young jeezy - TM101
T.I. - trap muzik
the game - documentary
lil Wayne's carter series
Kanye's 1st 3 or apparently the 1st 4

most of these were very good albums, but none would be considered classic in better eras. lil wayne himself is proof of that, cuz some of his earlier solos when he wasn't taken seriously, are better than C3 and arguably C2 as well.......C1 is his best but we know he aint write most of that.

2001 is a definitive classic. Had it been released a year later it would've been the best album of the decade. Being that it was released after the October 30th cutoff it was technically a 2000 album by music industry standard

I ducked out? :usure:

I offer you mercy when I'm raining bombs on you and you have the audacity to say I ducked out :sas1:

I agree with all these albums. Life After Death didn't influence shyt. Chronic 2001 is cool but that shyt ain't that great. Harlem World was almost like part of a trio of albums they slapped into one to signify the Bad Boy era at that time... but never Harlem World by itself did shyt for anybody. A lot of people bumped it though... that's for damn sure... excluding me. But I know it well.

I never listened to No Way Out by myself. That doesn't at all take away from whether or not it was any good... but at this time Bad Boy was such a fad... I was like fukk this album. I'll listen to it tonight and see if I was right for duckin it in the first place.... mind you though this was another album that everybody and even those who didn't listen to hip-hop had for some reason (a la Harlem World). So I probably know it way better than I think I do.

:usure: Life After Death practically influenced the glossy, shiny suit era you've seen in the late 90s to early 00's.

Hype Williams was eating good through this era, :wow:.
