my three is SFG, TC, and HNVM. those aren’t even my top 3 favorite albums of his its just what i think are his undeniable classics where you can’t talk about certain periods of time or the genre without them

and more of it is classic material and very little of it is genuinely bad

really BAYTL is the only bad thing dude ever made

I feel like the Drake albums that can't really be argued at all for classic is TML and More Life tbh and I love those

It's just hard to make a case for it lol like at all

I see where you’re coming from

Ngl I’m not huge on a lot of those prison tapes with random ass rappers on them but even those have their gems

gucci released all the music he made but the issue is he has really really high highs but pretty low lows. dude is a legend tho you can’t hold the few bad music he has

Got some of my favorite deep cuts of Kendrick’s catalog like FEEL, FEAR and DUCKWORTH. But some of the hits did not age that well at all. Not to discredit their success, just how they sound.

Are we talking albums or songs? Hard not to answer Jay Z

DJ Screw, Gucci Mane, and Three 6 Mafia have an unparalleled level of timeless music in their catalog

CARTI

@simulacrum But I’m also of the opinion that gucci’s peak ends in 2009 so I recognize I’m sitting at a lonely table here lmao

BAYTL is his only bad project and most of his releases are at least good

He might have did something here fellas i'm ngl..

more life was a top 2 drake album for me until like 2020 but it was never a classic to me

Are we including mixtapes here?

Yes any projects count

Idk about singles though idk how that would work

I'm starting to realize how much of a classic Honestly Nevermind really is

Highkey the best album he's dropped this decade

DBR belongs here even tho it wasn’t the moment in history that astroworld was

Cudi got 2 classic albums and 1 classic mixtape

AKNC
MOTM1
MOTM2

Some people will try to claim PP&DS as a classic, but it’s not. It’s a very good album for later Cudi though.

Damn you're right I forgot to put that

It would also be the best project on that list

astroworld is my least favorite trav project BUT i appreciate that it is a classic album and you can’t talk about the late 2010’s without it

Wayne's definitely in the cut then.

C2, C3, No Ceilings, Da Dedication 3, and Da Drought 3.

If C5 was less bloated and more cohesive, it would've been a classic too.
