SPIN: Let's Establish A List Of Albums With Classic Impact That Didnt Have Classic Quality

[The Devil's Advocate]

Life after death isn't a classic


Negged

 

[ISO]

Tha Carter III (he left off the best tracks, 2 is the best of the series)
7 Day Theory
Speakerboxx/The Love Below
Paper Trail
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

 

[Wacky D]

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.

and to be fair, I gotta add my ninjas to this list:

Camron - purple haze
beanie sigel - the b.coming

don't ever call me biased yall.

F*CK THAT ALBUM. I still want my money back from that fraud chit.

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Should be number 1 to me

I cringe when people say lauryn is the best female rapper. Like how?

Off one album. We not even sure she wrote all the shyt. And really the majority of people remember 3-4 songs off the entire album.

And they giving her best female mc ever like she was spitting straight flames for 10 years. I'd put rah digga, bahamadia, remy, mc lyfe, da brat, and eve above her

@Wacky D is one of the GOAT Booth posters +rep

Reasonable Doubt

RD had little to no impact on the rap game when it dropped, Jay was a blip on the radar in the midst of Pac,Nas,Biggie,Fugees etc..its actually the direct opposite of what the OP is talking about.

Tm101,Carter 1 and 2 and Trap Musik are absolute classics and would be considered so even in the 90s.

I agree with these in a positive manner.

dam good albums that flipped female rap upside down in both good & bad ways.

just not quite good enough to be considered classics.

Tm101,Carter 1 and 2 and Trap Musik are absolute classics and would be considered so even in the 90s.

no they wouldn't.

especially carter 1 with wayne not writing most of the chit.

the others would be trick daddy status at best.

yea I always hated seeing lauryn hill get propped up as the goat female rapper because of her r&b album.

they even gave that chit album of the year at the source awards.

Gillie himself said he never wrote bars for Wayne, even The Sqad who were beefing with Wayne at the time said Wayne never got help and they were around when he recorded it. Even if that were true, I'm guessing Doggystyle isn't a classic either?

As far as the Ti and Jeezy comment...Trick doesn't have one album fukking with either one of them shyts stop it. He came up in an era where P and Juvenile being two of the games biggest stars and was a benchwarmer outside of Nann nikka, not to mention he dropped an album in the same era and made nowhere near as much noise as Tip or Jeezy.
