    Erm, you've mixed a lot of artists in there but 95% of them weren't doing big numbers by the early 90s. That's just a fact. Maybe Hammer or Vanilla Ice or something.

    They took less than f***ing 10 years to go platinum. They werent drake or 50 in their respective eras, but they were still much bigger than illmatic nas

    Well we are all free to form our own opinion but when everyone disagrees with one particular statement then it points toward one group having delusion thoughts. I've seen so many trustworthy and non-biased KTT users say that this album isn't a classic, heck a lot even think it's mid. But whenever I stumble across a Kendrick stan they claim this is one of the best albums of all time (they even said this some hours after the album dropped btw).... I know who I would trust more, that's all

    Why not just listen and trust yourself instead of basing your judgements on what other people think. Y’all are insane

    Ok, so what? You're saying just because Illmatic didn't do it as quick as YOU think it should have then no classic charts?

    You are at best proving an exception to the rule.

    everyone says everything is a classic first week, at this point it just means "i enjoy this album a lot" and i don't interpret it as anything other than that. i agree that this album is a bit overhyped but i can see where the appeal is if you love kendrick's music and want to get a better understanding of where his head is at. it's just not for me.

    I did and while I respect the direction he went I did not enjoy my listening experience. It's obviously not bad, but at most I would say it's good. Nothing more. I can't see myself ever listening to it again in full and that's not a good sign for me

    That’s fine. That’s how I feel about CLB minus 1 or 2 songs. But there’s people all over KTT calling random stuff classic (yeat, rxnephew, etc.) but you’re saying calling Mr. Morale a classic is delusional. It’s a classic for them, why hate?

    Then tpab is an exception too, and they certainly arent the only ones. Plenty of albums arent that big but they're still classic. Common, ghostface, mf doom, gza, mobb deep, etc got classics and they arent that big

    My man, TML and SFG are classics and TC is THE universal classic of the time. How old were you fam? TC was peak Drake era. Like he was probably his most quoted by celebs and everyday people, his music was everywhere and the videos were lit too.

    Stan culture in 2022 is getting to unhinged levels lol

    How old were you? TML was a classic now. That’s a straight up lie lmao

    Like I said before. Considering TC a classic now is fine. Especially since albums in general are not serious which includes ya mans. So if you wanna retroactively call it one that’s fine. But nobody was a calling that s*** a classic during that time. NOBODY. Including ya self.

    Hi Roller

    that cardi win was deserving

    This is what Invasion of Privacy was up against:

    Swimming by Mac Miller,
    Victory Lap by Nipsey Hussle,
    Daytona by Pusha T and
    Astroworld by Travis Scott

    Idk what universe you live it, but there’s no reason her album was considered better than ANY of these great protects

    album hasnt even been out for a week and they are already calling that s*** a classic bro

    the same sxn that is always s***ting on other rappers like drake and cole and saying they dont have a single classic. you really dont see the problem here?

    Lil Baby is fire.

    Plenty people hold that opinion.

    And Kanye has s*** on plenty "popular" people. He loves Drake artistically. Hence him letting Drake pen for him on multiple occasions.

    How is TPAB an exception? He is literally signed to the biggest figures in hip hop history. It was produced by the GOAT hip hop producer. It was plastered everywhere and Kendrick got as many Grammy nominations as MICHAEL JACKSON.

    This is an album that literally fell off the Billboard 200 after a year. What are you talking about fam? This was no underground sleeper.

    If that’s what you took from all the fine points made this far you need to sit down, read a book, and practice your critical thinking skills
