    mfs out here claiming 20/20 is a godsend. first off, that album was only a big deal because of the amount of time JT was away from the limelight + the success of FS/LS. if 20/20 Pt. 2 didn't drop, he could've coasted off the success of Pt. 1 but instead he decided to drop an album full of s***ty b-sides that tainted the 20/20 legacy in general

    The funny part is, while pt. 2 is worse overall. I still go back to it because songs like You Got It On, Not A Bad Thing, Amnesia are better than most of pt. 1

    You’re splitting hairs like a troll

    Prove me wrong

  • Jul 21, 2022

    you ain't the only one saying this. i've seen it in other threads too.

    but anyway, it kinda hurts for me to slander 20/20 because I was a JT stan like all the way. that mf was my idol growing up and when Suit & Tie dropped on that Sunday, it was like the 2nd coming of Christ i'm torn on the album as a whole though. i'm not sure if i like it or think it's too over the top

    I could go on but this does not sound like music made after 1988

    Not really, it stands out from the rest of the 80s music that was very popular then. It was a blend of rock, pop, & r&b that Quincy masterfully perfected.

    Ok but that’s not the point you made for putting Yeezus over Gradation. Keep your arguments consistent

    I said Grad sounds like was made in the 2000s and the reason why it’s not Yeezus, therefore Grad isn’t on Yeezus level.

    Work on consistency with playing devils advocate

    So Grad isn’t modern Thriller because it sounds like it was made in the ‘00s, and Yeezus is because it sounds futuristic, even though Thriller sounds like it was made in the ‘80s

    every single one of yall are wrong

    Probably for the pop genre, but for all genres, Confessions and FS/LS are the closest ones.

    RESIGNED

    Exactly and to be a thriller imo u gotta meet the criteria to be like

    the definitive record of the year

    20/20 just dont meet that at all imo (FSLS def does if we talking JT tho)

    confessions definitely meets the critera

    I feel like FS/LS will reach Diamond status soon, because that album too iconic for fans to completely disrespect him as an artist.

    It's def worthy of Thriller status and that's coming from someone who loves Justified way moree.

    You are not comprehending my opinion, you are just trying to find a flaw lol. I specifically said in any timeline not just the future.

    all 3 are neck and neck for me personally. i think Confessions and FS/LS are better in terms of an overall album, but if we're talking dominating pop culture and the staying power of all of those singles then Katy is there with them
