No, it wouldn't. Death certificate is a certified classic and one of the best albums to ever bless my speakers.

Your not attempting to list all classics I assume?

I can list all the classics. But more so the well known ones.

hip-hop started on the east coast

the funny thing is that west coast heads catch feelings if you deny them something in a thread like this

I don't like gettin' into the coastal shyt, but the East Coast had a million classics before '91 even hit. Cats were droppin' classic shyt like every other week between '84-'90.

You're missing a lot (It Was Written, Paid in Full, Adventures of Slick Rick, etc.)

It's East Coast and it's not close to be honest. Documentary and Good Kid, M.a.a.d City are weak classics.

^thread should have been closed here.

I wouldnt consider it was written a "classic"

I agree with maybe the Documentary just missing out the list

But GKMC is a certified classic.

I thinks its a Tie.
If It Was Written isn't a classic than neither is the Blueprint or Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous.

It Was Written is easily better than the overrated Blueprint and Good Kid, M.a.ad City. It's one of the best albums of the mafioso rap genre, you had the track where Dre and Nas came together in the middle of the east and west beef. I Gave You Power is one of the greatest rap songs, dude rapped as if he were a gun he inspired Tupac to write Me and my Girlfriend. The album went 2x Platinum in the same year, it received 4 to 5 Mics from most critics. How is an album with songs like "I Gave You Power", "If I Ruled the World", "Street Dreams", "The Message", "Affirmative Action", etc. not a classic? Then you have guys like Kendrick, Lupe Fiasco calling it one of their favorite albums.

This is such a lopsided win for the east that you could allow every 4 mic or better album from the west (up until rap died around...say 1998) and the east still laps the west.


You can't spin this one, Cali. Sorry.
