Mostly the production

this thread will be very insightful and civil in its discussions

TAke

take

Was gonna put an R. Kelly but that's only cause He's R Kelly. In all honesty, the music on R Kelly's best albums is still great

Writing is so sharp and on point, has so much character, production has so much feeling. Literally one of the best albums oat

yeah this thread gonna have some dreadful takes

What is it specifically about horrorcore rap that seems so corny now in hindsight?

SSLP fits this description very well

Eminem in general tbh

Good point. Only stans call it a classic.

Risky post, but Imma say anything from the New Jack Swing era/sound

any album that came out before 2010

It’s the production that is so bad. My Fault & C***On Everybody production is

Do you want Ice Cube to be over a trap beat? It's not like MC Hammer production or bling rap production. It's timeless, the production is amazing and the opposite of your opinion.

The fact a lot of it tried way too hard

Relapse

OP asked which classic aged poorly so I named one

The Predator came two years later and it was better imo

edginess hasn’t aged well in general

The songs are from 1989/1990 they sound as fresh as they possibly can lmao

TES is like a child trying to be deep and compelling. SSLP is at least juvenile on its surface.
