GKMC, TPAB, DAMN (best project of 2017 in retrospect)

DAMN not classic imo. GKMC and TPAB sure.

f*** you

Obviously it is acceptable since everyone is still anticipating his next album to drop. If Kendrick needs more time to put together another classic then it is what it is.

I’ve actually heard people say they don’t care when he drops anymore but I will say this he can’t go into the next year without something he my boy but he can’t claim goat status and not apply pressure

Hahaha, I can't argue with you, no! You mad!
Look at you, you mad! You big mad! Haheheh
I'm happy! Leave me alone!
I just want some money, a lot of money
I don't get paid to argue with you
No! Who is you? You ain't nobody!
You mad

Damn a classic.

Pure artistry top to bottom.
Goat level rapping (Element, Feel)
Immaculate story telling (XXX, Fear, Duckworth)
Great theme/concept
Made to play cohesively in reverse from track 14 to 1
Masterful production and mixing
Genre bending creativity (Yah, Pride, Lust, God)
Commercially succesful (Tripple Platinum)
Spawned multiple commercially successful singles (Humble - #1, DNA, Loyalty, Love)
Spawned successful tour which I attended
Iconic videos
Critical Acclaim
Pulitzer Prize winning.

Now that I think about it Damn might be one of the clearest examples of a Classic in hip-hop history.

If YOU didn't like it PERSONALLY, just say that

This reminds me of how the og deluxe for NWTS was just going to be the album in reverse which is insane

Hmmm I never heard that. Not sure how NWTS would play backwards. I’m sure it would work but I don’t really see how it would be significant thematically.

That DAMN collectors edition hit different tho

Point out where i said I didn't like damn. I'll wait.

Also, an album being a classic is an opinion, so it's all what you PERSONALLY think. (Btw literally said "imo" in my post you're replying too) Go off tho sis.

Niggas busting out lists just because you have a different opinion than them. Im dead af.

You can have whatever opinion you want, just giving you a friendly reminder of what the rest of humanity experienced

And yeah you right what’s a classic and what’s not is opinion just like who the best nba player in the league is opinion but that doesn’t stop fans/analysts from comparing stats

Yeah this s*** truly not coming at any point at all

DAMN. collector's edition is Kendrick's best album, I don't make the rules

Uh, ok? Idk why you acting like im the only nigga on earth who doesn't think DAMN is a classic, talkin bout "the rest of humanity".

Also that NBA player a***ogy made no sense because there's more objectivity in sports than there is music. You can compare stats in sports, you can't compare stats in music (unless it's sales, which is irrelevant)

Say it with me

Clb 👏 does 👏 not 👏 exist 👏

Who cares if damn a classic or not

Damn

"more objectivity in sports than there is music"

I disagree

DAMN is certainly a classic, people call a lot less culturally relevant and panned albums “classics” on here. One person didn’t like it, said it’s wack and the entire site ran with it. It’s probably the perfectly balanced album that contains serious themes & bops

people call a lot less culturally relevant and panned albums “classics” on here.

Already said itt an album being a classic is an opinion, so

The fact that we debating DAMNs classic status itt nearly august 2021 speaks volumes

Down atrocious

catastrophic
