dont disrepesect SVGC
I like how the most obscure one I picked is the only one you give a s*** about from that list lol
Been jammin some Purity Ring too
That first album sounds great on CD, man. That and the Chvrches debut the year after
Think the game was adjusting to Kanye? He was like when The Beatles showed up to early 60s rock stagnation and it took everybody a couple years to readjust
He def bridged the gap between conscious underground and braggadocious mainstream
and people credit 808s for the modern sound in hip hop (which is true) but College Dropout made it cool for rappers to have a soft side before 808s came out.
'you can still love your man and be manly dawg'
I would probably take 2010's over 2000's rap.. Maybe :mystery:
2000s had as many classic albums as the ‘80s
Idk what was going on
A lot of stuff in the 2010’s to me just sounds like watered down versions of older s***
Definitely, 2000s rap was killing me by 2003
converted almost entirely to rock for a few years. Kanye, Clipse and Wayne like the only rap I still have from that period.
The singles were great still
2000s had as many classic albums as the ‘80s

2000s was very weak if you don't care for the early-mid 00s underground, but the 'bling era' was super bland imo. OutKast kept it fresh at the start of the decade and Kanye gave the decade some life halfway through. There are a couple classics scatterewd throughout.

I agree that 07-09 is a weak stretch but the rest is great

I can still remember very clearly the transitions from the Aftermath and bling dominance and overload to breath of fresh air Kanye
I can totally imagine how it must have felt to experience the Beatles switching their style up every album back in the 60s because it was mind-boggling keeping up with Kanye
Crazy
There were maybe 50 great rap albums after 2003. But that’s being generous.
I don’t think anything released last decade is a classic besides MBDTF. It usually takes longer than a decade for me to call something a classic. It’s also a weird thing that people talk about exclusively with hip-hop.
Danny Brown got a classic at the absolute very least. Future and Thug too.

idk bout that broski haha like I would take those 2000's classics over most of those 2010 joints. but like Galaxy said those 2007-09 years it feel off for me

Okay…same with the 2010’s

How when that was the beginning of the post internet music era

Realizing outkast was fizzling out
tremendous loss only made up for by Kanye

You're really gonna generalize an entire decade's worth of music like that lol
Maybe you just didn't listen to enough stuff
not afraid to say 00s rap is weak in general 
Two behemoth classics and I might even be genrous with some 8's and 7.5's on this personal list
