Thug Motivation 101 is a CLASSIC album

Who was rapping like jeezy before it dropped?
Now look at the all the rappers who was rapping like jeezy after it dropped.
Every street nikka was a jeezy clone after tm101
Even the way he came in the game with BMF and a street movement behind him. Then all of a sudden everyone starts reppin their movement and how rich they was before rap and how they a real nikka this, real nikka that, i dont need rap etc.
Jeezy gave these nikkaz a blueprint to come in the game with and alot of people got rich off of it.
Even Yo Gotti said it in one his songs
and people called him a jeezy clone.
Nothing stated here makes a case for TM101 being ground breaking. Ground breaking implies that it brought something fresh, new and innovative to Hip Hop. Nobody else sounding like Jeezy doesn't make him ground breaking. Everything you listed falls in line with being influential and impactful, but nothing about it was ground breaking. There's tons of hyperbolic statements usually associated with this album, ground breaking being one of them. Another exaggeration is the influence of TM101. Yes, it is influential, but not to the point that it's made out to be.
Got this shiit in the deck righ naw!!!
Finna blast this shiit on the way home from work on volume 31.
The bass on this album is amazing.

So no one else sounding like him to the 4953543 clones after him doesnt make him groundbreaking?
What would you call that then?
Again, that would still fall in line with being influential, not ground breaking. Rappers having clones or "fathering" someone else's style isn't anything ground breaking especially in Hip Hop.

Im actually surprised nikkas disagree with OP
there is only 1 lame nikka who's a pedophile and a few cac's disagreeing........so take it with a grain of salt.....
Im literally reading the like
This shyt sounds nothing like 90s No Limit shyt
Even nikkas who dont really fukk with Jeezy recognize how dope this album is.

Im not saying they werent. But for dude to compare TM101 to those shyts is a reach at best. The sound isnt the same whatsoever.
I skipped some of the thread
Someone really compared it to themI gotta feeling I know who
So people are surprised that others are questioning TM101 is a classic? There's far more revered and legendary albums that people have posted far worse statements about. I mean, this is a discussion that was bound to have two sides. It would be different if it was an appreciation thread, but it's not.
