Hip-Hop Thread II Genre • Page 13

this thing is super bloated and uninteresting, a little over halfway through and about to switch to something else. all generic beats, lazy flows. crazy to compare this to his run from 2014-2019. nothing remotely on the same level as Harambe or Drippin

 

The features don’t inspire much confidence

 

The main artist doesn't inspire much confidence

 

of all the new music I've listened to today, his album was by far the worst and most uninspired of them all

 

Listen to either of these instead of Young Thug…

 

I lost interest in Young Thug after seeing some homophobiccomments he made

 

lately I’ve been super into this album I don’t think it really hit the first few times I listened when it first came out, but recently it just hit greatly and I’ve listened to it like 3 times.

 

Their best album

 

Black Spasmodic is a goated song, Tip's best verse

 

It's their best album

 

It’s a great album but you guys are taking it too far for me haha

 

It’s not even in the same stratosphere as The Low End Theory or Midnight Marauders as they’re both perfect examples of hip hop classics. And maybe even People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm could be included too. It’s still a superb album, but it doesn’t come close to their original run.

 

it's definitely better than People's Instinctive Travels at the least, I probably like it about as much as Marauders but below Low End

 

I think it's their best album too tbh. At the very least it's in a 3-way tie with Low End and Marauders

 

Low End Theory is one of *the* rap albums (it was classic long before that term has been used inflationary and lost a lot of it’s meaning). We Got It From Here.. is a really great album (one of the best of the 2010s) but that’s all it is. That to me makes a difference.

 

Totally understand someone feeling their early stuff is their favorite. The other albums are iconic staples for the genre, but I still think technically/musically-speaking, We Got It From Here had them working at the height of their talents.

 

Low End Theory > Midnight Marauders > Beats Rhymes and Life > We Got It From Here > Peoples Instinctive Travel > The Love Movement

 

Midnight is my favorite but yeah We Got It From Here….is fantastic esp for a reunion album.

 

we got it is a bit too long to dethrone low end but if it was just the best 10 tracks or so itd be about on par for me

 

The 100 Best Rap Albums of All Time


Uhhhhhhhhhh

 

It’s rage bait at this point

 

I’ve seen worse

 

I stopped after number 96 once I the first four random albums that are allegedly better than Doggystyle

 

The 100 Best Rap Albums of All Time (Pitchfork List) • forum.chorus.fm

I made a thread so as to not clog up this one. Definitely some choices made

 

Honestly pumped to see a No Limit album on that list (even though it's not even Mac's best album).
