Second best is IYRTITSLEKRIRJS
His worst idk might be views or snorepion

JIK is a dud

JIK can be the worst album ever he would still have more confirmed classics than any other rapper

Actually views has a lot of bangers
More life and scorpion his worst projects easily

More Life? I thought most considered it a step up from Views, what makes you prefer Views?

Agreed.

It’s not often that we see such an enlightened thread peppered with great hard hitting truths like this one in the responses but boy do we got one!

There comes a time where you HAVE to stop riding that mans meat

As soon as he drops 2 bad albums in a row I'm out.

Drake has no bad albums. Just mid and good. No masterpiece yet!

You're right op, scorpion perfectly fulfills the mood of boredom that any human can go through

What keeps you from thinking Take Care is a masterpiece?

Lollll but nah I think Scorpion's first half reflects anhedonia really well as well as self-acceptance, and side B reflects lovesickness

The topic is never dropping an imperfect album yet Kanye has several.....

It’s a classic for sure and a very good album just isn’t flawless. A masterpiece to me is an album with little to no holes in it

Views has Controlla, U With Me?, Grammys, Childs Play
These are better than anything on more life
Feels like he’s not even rapping on more life besides like 3 songs

The post I replied to said drake has the most classics out of any rapper. Nothing about imperfect albums

Well, what makes something a "confirmed" classic? I can tell you that a lot of albums Kanye fans insist are classics still don't really have any acceptance as classics outside of his fanbase, such as Yeezus.

I think TCD and LR are classics. Easily. Graduation is a classic too but probably would be less accepted. After that it's not really definite anymore. MBDTF could be a classic but I wanna wait longer. TLOP as well, but everything else I think it'll be a long time and take the general public revisiting the album to be a classic.

Why bring up classics then? I respect that you acknowledge classics can be imperfect and perfect albums can be non-classics, though.

His first 5 are easily consensus classics. MBDTF, CD, LR are seen as some of the best albums ever. F*** rap music I’m talking music in general. Correct me if I’m wrong but graduation was the first rap album to bring anime aesthetics to the forefront in hip hop.

I only brought up classics cause Mitch baker did

If that's what the album conveys to you, I'm not gonna argue with that. But what I really want to say itt is that perfection doesn't exist, especially when it comes to art or anything man made really. This doesn't stop a work of art from being a masterpiece tho, these two are different concepts

Whaaat? I agree with those songs on Views being great, but More Life has more than a few rap-centric tracks.

I think More Life is a slow burner, it opens up with a few heavy hitters then really really pulls back until Gyalchester. I like the vision but if you prefer something immediate then you might not like it.

I feel you but you can always just skip straight to Gyalchester and you'll be straight at the rapping tracks.

Drake = McDonalds.

Nah dude I'm sorry but 808s is the sore thumb here, that album was indeed underrated on release, but it lacks the wide acceptance needed to be considered a classic. Most people either don't revisit it, or only revisit the singles.

Views and Scorpion are NOT GOOD
