Exactly, so if hes not making good music that people are into, why bother? Cause he honestly never had a great album and never had a "sound".

He doesnt fit in the current ATL landscape and hasnt for years.

Yet he keeps trying to make music for a generation that knows him more for being King and Damani's dad then for Trap Muzik or Urban Legend.

Ego is fueling these albums and that's why they come out sounding like they do.

Every new leak is "amazing".

Stop it. If you're real T.I. fans, dont gas his mediocre music.

Wait, he never made a great album? LMAO

Trap Muzik isn't great? Urban Legend isn't great? KING isn't great?

You bring nothing to the discussion, every single point in this is invalid

Paper Trail is great too

They have great moments but great albums?

Idk.

His music was good but he never defined the era with a project. He never really had a distinct sound, he wasnt really married to Toomp creatively so he basically just put stuff together. Sometimes it worked but his latest stuff hasnt. Closest album to a classic is prolly Paper Trail and that's more Pop then anything else hes ever done. I love his 1st 3 projects but I dont think they aged very well at all.

Tip is a legend but does he have a TM101 in his catalog? No.

Tip really put Motivation, U Dont Know Me and ASAP back to back to back on Urban Legend, that's greatness

Honestly tha King to ASAP run is ridiculous

That 3 song run on Urban Legend is prolly my favorite thing Tip has ever done.

troubleman is pretty slept on as well

intro, g season, trap back jumping all great tracks.

it’s his best album post-prison and personally I’d put it above Urban Legend

His best album since Paper Trail....and it still didnt have the highs of his best work.

G Season proves he f***ed up when he let Meek go.

yea i bump some tracks off troubleman more than urban legend

king is my most played tip album by far tho

I always think of this 4 track run as absolutely insane..

Honestly u can say it's a 6 track run bc Why u mad at me and praying for help are also dope AF

2012 actually wasnt too bad of a year.

i enjoyed games jesus piece album as well that year. both vets dropped solid albums when their previous work didnt really impress.

Trap Muzik is a classic. I'll never forget the day that s*** came out. I don't think it has the same impact on you unless you were listening to it when it dropped.

Just a fantastic project top to bottom.

It didnt age well tho.
I used to think it was Tip's one true classic but I bumped it recently and it's truly a product of the era.

Back when David Banner beats were a thing.

Strongly disagree. There's one David Banner beat on the album lol. Those Kanye records didn't age well? No More talk didn't age well? Be easy didn't age well? I can't quit didn't age well? Bezzle didn't age well?

I would agree that Urban Legend has several songs that didn't age well (Get Ya S*** Together, The Greatest, Get Loose) but I don't think Trap Muzik has a single record that didn't age well.

Hi guys!

It's been a while and I'm catching up with the thread.

I just heard "Pardon" and I wanted to ask you. Does it remind you of "Help is coming"? The original version to be precise.

This is what I'm talking about: youtube.com/watch?v=drMXiadUR_k (Just Blaze studio session)

Edit: youtube.com/watch?v=dh40EuV44Ts (the original version)
Edit2: I caught up with the thread and saw it was mentioned already.

Let's calm down shall we. Not a single great album? No never had a sound?

Yikes brother.

This David Banner track is special. Its so damn good. I bet its going to be the last track of the album giving the way he talks at the end
