I got no idea . This entire thread feels very unnecessary . All three have hits and good songs
Oh it's necessary for Jcole team to bike ride Drake rn
marvins room was retroactively named the first single, you can't really give take care the same amount of credit for being groundbreaking out the gate and "taking chances with a first single" when drake was dropping loosies constantly at that time and marvins room just so happened to take off so it was then called the first single
dreams money could by was one of the first take care era songs released around marvins room and trust issues as well

We need less proxy beef threads not more
I might be trippin but The Real Her, Take Care, Make Me Proud, and Doing it Wrong are all skips
Lowkey you coulda kept the intro and outro and that Kendrick interlude too. I like these but they're less good than the other songs.
People just say anything
I'm lost on what the political song from Forest Hills Drive is even supposed to be. No role models? Love yours? Wet dreams???
I was confused too lol
Everyone has different metrics of what a classic is so this just becomes a thread to get emotional and mad that someone feels differently
I don’t think there should be different metrics for what’s considered a classic. That then feels like a personal opinion.

i remember it vividly. DMCB dropped first then Marvin's Room dropped a month or two later. I was in Vegas when it dropped, Crazy first listen in the hotel room, lol.
Club Paradise then dropped a month or two later.
Classic ass times
NWTS is the one. The others are very good projects
Something can be good and classic depending on impact and longevity
Drake got at least 3 classics in SFG TC NWTS
Iyrtitl and Views are classics
its been over a decade since the term classic was even respected, and because newer artists have failed to drop a proper classic in rap, the big 3’s discography will only be given more classic status as a result
TAKE CARE
NWTS
IYRTITL
VIEWS
SCORPI
CLB
are all classics, imo he hasn't dropped a project that isn't CLASSIC

Classic will always be an opinion
but i have to accept that they are legends for being some of the best-selling rappers of their generation

The "best-selling" label is the ultimate corporate distraction.
And they're going down as legends just not the type you thinking of.

God what an average album.
“ FHD is the only ALBUM besides Kendrick's TPAB to make a political song get major mainstream success in nearly 20 years now and the only Rap album besides TPAB to be used in rallies and political change of the 2010s “
This feels wrong lol the only rapper with a mainstream successful political song ? How do you gauge success ?
Random ahh metrics
