shyt like GRODT , Nelly's First two albums , Justin Timberlake justified etc are commercial classics ... commercial

and because Classic is a vague term , so you gotta be specific how you use it when I say commercial , I mean pop which the primary demographic is females ...ya niccas making it more difficult than it really is

& Ya won't answer the question if Carter 3 can be aimlessly called a classic why can't Pink Friday ?
Is thriller a commercial classic?

Get Rich is a borderline classic. It being commercial or not is irrelevant.

Nelly doesn't have a classic album and Justin Timberlake isn't hip hop.

so it's about lowering the bar now :jbhmm:

Anyone that calls Carter 3 classic (or anything Lil Wayne for that matter) is someone to be ignored.

It's a good album for what it is if that is what you are trying to say. She's a unique artist in Hip Hop right now and she put out a unique album with a little bit of pop and Hip Hop. She's more talented than a Katy Perry or Taylor Swift.....

But it's not a classic Hip Hop album, commercial or not.

That's basically how I feel as well , but the only reason I'm saying it's a classic is primarily because of the impact it had on young females ... like I stated prior if you asks females 16 - 25 if Pink Friday is a classic a vast majority of them will tell you yeah , damn near every girl phone I browse had a Pink Friday track on it

When I say commercial I mean pop .. I don't mean classic in terms of hip hop standards that's a whole different realm and has stricter requirements

& Alot of niccas in the booth done hailed Carter 3 as a classic numerous times ....

I agree.

Posters here have a problem with not realizing even though they might not like an artist, doesn't mean they are not influential or setting trends.

The Pink Print wasn't made for you and I. I didn't buy the album. Yet we both can see how much of an impact she has had. It's undeniable.
