Man that 2nd half of 20 Karat Jesus one of the greatest beat changes I've ever heard in the last 20 years.

Also some of his greatest production, that nigga was on some s*** the way he was flowing on Alexys.

from what i know they get to choose from big 4 and 15 of there choice so what happens is people which might not listen much rap but need to fill out there votes end choosing the legacy act especially when none of the names were super mainstream this year

nas can say now he won more Grammys then biggie and pac

He respects them too much

Hov would say that tho

None of the albums on that list have replay value. There i said it.

it's the f***ing Grammys I don't know why niggas in general still jack that s***.

yea I haven’t listened to Alfredo nearly as much as bandana or even s/t

Only 2 resting in Heaven can be mentioned in the same breath as him

where is the lie

Neither deserved it

I think alfredo the better album not by some vast amount, I think freddie was rapping better on there than nas was on king's disease. But if I had to pick one, I would pick king's disease has more replay value to me

Edit: actually I replay alfredo a lot too

Miles by Blu & Exile>all of the rap albums nominated

I think that the Freddie Gibbs fans that only like the "soul samples" fred but not albums like Freddie, You Only Live 2wice, and Shadow Of A Doubt aint really freddie gibbs fans tbh.

Like, Madgibbs is a great project series and I love Madlib

but absolutely him nor Alchemist will ever craft a song better than this

@Goo RT me.

REAL

His early tapes have A LOT of songs that s*** on Alfredo

Ppl don't know how much Gibbs had to hustle to get to where he's at, they act like he's a new artist lol

Gibbs thinks he's a better songwriter now but Idk if that's even true!

Seeing how Gibbs went from getting rejected by Interscope and putting out Midwestgangsta as a free Internet tape all the way to being a mainstream artist now is mindblowing rbh

I think you can argue he's matured and gotten better as a writer the same way Q has. Like a song like Practice or Insecurities or even Gang Signs recently are really nice written in structure and s***.

King's Disease is def my least favorite Nas album. Royce and Gibbs' albums were way better. And AWT should've gotten the Grammy.

Will always respect the come up. The underground (not just the gibbs s***) gave him a second wind.

So glad this nigga performed at my campus

always wish him and Kaytranada did more stuff together tho.

yeah, BFK as well. It seems like people categorize him with some of Madlib's and Alchemist's other collaborators, but he's soooo versatile, people just don't know his other "styles".

Tom Green deserves a rap Grammy more than Macklemore. There I said it.

Cant be mad at this

There's.....not a lot of rappers that you could argue that is more versatile than Gibbs is.

Like....that nigga will find a pocket on any f***ing type of track. After listening to Massage Seats that took the cake for me. I wanna f***ing hear this dude flow over some goddamn Robert Glasper s*** or even just some avant garde Fly Lo s***.

go make the thread friend

kota is whatever to me but not making threads out of fear of flopping is not the way

also

one of my fav tracks of his in recent years.

S***'s too catchy man.
