you have no idea what you're talking about

Dre - 2001

That mixing/sound still fresh as ever

i was there for the whole thing in 2008. was right in front of the tv when the love lockdown video premiered on 106&park. you looking back too harshly. maybe hood niggas and casual too cool for school niggas crucified him but for the most part 808s was loved when it dropped mayne these jus facts

10 years before hyper pop

Already dated lol

Maybe I’m using “common” a bit loosely but yeah man in the 2010s Atlanta scene those “do lots of d**** and party” songs with that tone had been well established

Invincible too - especially the opening 3

toro y moi is so f***ing good

2012 actually

If we being f***ing honest

Wow then it is. Google had it at 2019

You’re exposing yourself

jai paul legit an alien or sumn niggas still tryna catch up to s*** he was doing 10+ years ago

why dont yall go back and read the reviews since yall clearly werent around or maybe not old enough to really know 808s was not a hated album and kanye was not crucified for it wtf is yall on right now?

every serious music fan at the time knew that man had jus advanced the culture in a real way.

There wasn’t a platform for a lot of “serious music” fans back then. That doesn’t become a huge thing until a year or two later. 808s fans were clowned and Kanye was constantly called gay and stuff. People thought he sold out making pop esque music. This is coming off the universally accepted Graduation too so you could imagine how left this was. Just go look at old forums discussing the album. It wasn’t until like 2011 that 808s was starting to get love amongst the general public.

hos on my d*** cuz i look like matlock
