still can't get over that fan comment about cole having 3 classic when his best project is ranked 7.5/10

He said all his features since then were exercises for the album too I can't wait

2014FHD is a classic no matter how hard yall try to say it's not lol

it is not no matter how hard you try to say it is lol...

An album that is considered by critics as a 6.7/10,
an album that is considered by the hip hop community as a 7/10,
an album that is considered by music lovers as a 5/10,
an album that had no impact,
an album that had no influence...

...is not a classic.

FHD is at best a decent album (mostly for his fans though)...no matter how hard you try to tell us you subjectively enjoyed it a lot.

it is a classic

album was unavoidable when it came out, the letterman performance, the documentary for it, s*** even the whole double platinum no features meme

im not crazy about cole but itd be hard to deny how big that album was

It's not. It's not even my opinion. It's not regarded as a classic period.

So? you're confusing with "popularity" which is very different.

Recovery by Eminem was unavoidable when it came out, s*** is not a classic though.

it is

no it wasnt lmao, not afraid sure, but the whole album? not at all

it isn't.

Lol it absolutely was...it was a lot more unavoidable than FHD, yet it's not a classic either.

if FHD is not a classic, what hiphop albums outside of Kendrick or Kanye albums are considered classics from the 2010's?

basing albums off random numbers like this is ridiculous

saying it had no impact is just delusional brotha. No Role Models still in the top 50 most played songs on Spotify 9 years after it released

Unfortunately, very, very few.

And just because there is almost no classic for the 2010's decade doesn't mean we have to force one or to lower the bar.

In an era when everything comes and goes so quickly, classics are honestly pretty rare

2014 FHD is a modern classic because Cole is a major artist and a ton of people loved it, but on its own I wouldn't say it's anything amazing

There's gotta be a Dilla beat that can dig up

If we're doing it it's getting done right

Kendrick at Hey Neighbour today in Africa

Bro dead ass dropped the album and has been touring ever since. Once he locks back in, it’s problems.

Judging by the rhetoric this Chimox guy is using, sounds like the king of Kendrick stannery and his 10000 alts are back. Responding to him is like having a debate with AI bro, dont bother

Went by Klastii originally i believe, then Pennywise back at OG KTT, and yeah loads of alts that spout each others s*** lol

Kendrick hit me up today just checking in
I always appreciate it tho fr

So Saturdays show in Africa was his last festival of the year. The last time he visited we got TPAB inspired from the trip. Wonder if anything inspired him this time. Also I wonder how much he charges for festival shows, he must have done like 25 festivals this year lol bro probably made like 200 mill in the last 2 years if we include the tour

He probably did the Africa shows for free. It seems like he’s really trying to make African countries go to tour stops for artists instead of just US and Europe/Australia.

I don’t really know if we’ll get anything out of this trip since it seems like he’s already in Hillbillies/Compton Cowboy mode. It’s Dot, you never really know until it’s time to know

I could see him charging upper 7 figures to 8 figures depending on the festival

He needs to enjoy the winter with his fam and lock in the beginning of 2024.
