Idk I dont consider any of those as reaally great projects
4.44 is actually special and rises above those to me
but i stil wouldnt really consider it a classic too
tbh first listen it was special but once i sat down with it months later i was like this is cool i guess but it lost its shine. awt is honestly better rapping and beats from him
It’s defiantly top 5. Can put his 3 classics above it. Only other ones are vol 1 and AG. You’re acting like it being top 5 is ridiculous. No way it’s lower than 6 even if you put AG and vol 1 over it
it is ridiculous lol. he raps much better on his previous albums til AG and those albums have higher highs. only song that i can consider even one of his best including deluxe songs off 444 is marcy me

It’s not just about “how he raps” though. The subject matter, cohesiveness and emotions on 4:44 lend to a better album that all but the ones I’ve mentioned. It’s not just about higher highs. With 4:44 he’s intentionally delivering the raps in that way for effect and it works well. Maybe you can’t play in in a club, but that’s not the point with every album

idc about subject matter as long as he isn't rapping about some random s*** like when it's the right time to pick strawberries i just need good flows bars beats etc. he has plenty of emotions and great storytelling across several albums that he did on this album a week ago song cry this cant be life etc.

Yes but half the dynasty is ass, most of volume 2 is ass and the other song you mentioned is off BP. Consistency is a big factor when you’re talking about good albums not just albums that have the occasional good/great song. Anyway agree to disagree
Great album, but if people don't play it, how can it be a classic.
It can be a classic off of it's own merits, popularity doesn't really determine the greatness of a piece of art

Agreed
I think it’s a top 5 hip hop project of the decade, and I actually think it’s his third best album (always thought black album was overrated, sorry)
Production is excellent, lyrics are great, has substance without being pretentious or trying too hard. Not a single skip for me.

I disagree. A piece of art can be great, but without the recognition, it cannot be a classic. The whole point of the "classic" label is that it will be remembered forever/influenced a generation.
mixing is trash. no, it's not a classic but great album.
36 chambers is not a classic because of the mixing?
you really fell for this bait smh

Agree to disagree there for sure brodie
one of the best hip hop albums of all time no debate
S*** like this is why I say this album is overrated.
