Bad Opinions II • Page 12

This is a problem I have with a lot of grunge hits that are played incessantly. They’re still great songs but I never feel the need to listen to them because of how many times I’ve heard them on the radio.

 

Good by Better Than Ezra came on the radio in walmart like a month ago and i was stoked

 

When I worked for Office Max back in the day, I would hear tons of 90s pop rock and singer-songwriter hits all the time. It was pretty sweet.

 

Lot of bad opinions in the replies

 

You mfs love ragebait!!

 

I did get a chuckle seeing Blueprint 3 in the replies though lol

 

Not reading the replies but Springsteen, Dylan all have 5 pretty easily. I'd argue that Bruce has 5 in a row.

 

Lots of people borne after 2005 in those replies

 

Anyone saying stuff like that just hasn't listened to enough music.

 

I think it’s really important to remember that we are using platforms like that with a lot of 15-17 year olds

 

To be fair I think that tweet is about rap albums, and a classic is more than just good or even great album (even though the term has been used a little too often and quickly in the last 15 years if you ask me). I might be missing an obvious artist right this moment but I think it might just totally be a true tweet. Five is also a high bar though.

 

Kanye has 5

 

I don’t think so. I think those are 5 arguably great albums. I don’t think Graduation for example is a classic. But that’s me.

 

But yes Kanye is one of the stronger cases

 

But also the best album Kanye has worked on is actually Be by Common

 

Kanye has 6

 

I think Graduation counts, as does Yeezus. I forget if I posted about this, but apparently the youth today views Graduation as the one true Kanye "classic". When I do album presentations in my class, multiple kids have chosen Graduation as the Kanye album to present

 

I don’t love graduation but it definitely counts

 

Yup

 

Is Late Registration a classic or just a more refined but ultimately less significant (because he did if before) version of College Dropout?

 

Actually maybe this is enough Kanye talk

 

It's definitely a different kind of record, more live music/strings based compared to the chipmunk soul of TCD.

 

dylan for sure. would also throw sabbaths first 6 and yes's run from yes album through going for the one up there too

 

I was just thinking this too

 

also i revisited the rolling stones's late period recently (which is already a questionable choice lmao obligatory fuck those losers) and have realized i have the very bad opinion of thinking dirty work is their best album post tattoo you
