Dec 27, 2020 You think the world didn't think the album THRILLER was a classic, the same week it dropped?. You think the first time Michael Jackson moonwalked at Motown's 25th Anniversary people were thinking "hmmmm let's see if it can stand the test of time before we can call it THE most classic performance ever?". Come on mate. It's one thing if you don't consider MTBMB his 3 or 4th Classic. But don't tell us how we should think/feel. Specially when there's no actual rule or formula for this. This is art.
Dec 27, 2020 If you read my last post you will understand what I mean. The word classic is way overused and has almost lost it's meaning. Like when you say it's his 4th classic, I can't help but shake my head. You're attributing the word classic way too easily when it's supposed to be one of the highest honors. That's why I think several years need to pass before even bringing up the word "Classic". For example, All Eyes On Me from Tupac or I don't know, Dear Mama for instance. That s--- is a classic. The guy been dead for like 25 years and people still talk about it.
Dec 27, 2020 I agree that the word classic is thrown around too much and people should be patient for a while before dubbing something as a classic however, I think it’s fine if people use that term for themselves and not “objectively”. For example, there is a difference between trying to convince everybody that an album is a classic and just the album being a personal classic to you based on your enjoyment of it.
Dec 27, 2020 Eminem's "Music To Be Murdered By" has now broke a 50 year-old record for the Biggest Leap ever on Billboard Top 200 after climbing 196 spots. Previous record was held by Bob Dylan (193 places) in 1970! "I sound like a broken record every time I break a record"

Dec 27, 2020 Lone sniper, I hold a microphone like a loaded rifle My dome's brighter, all I spit from my skull's fire All that's missing's a motorcycle with the chrome wires, spoke tires And y'all are flow biters, so I don't gotta Explain why they call me your ghostwriter This bar is one of the hardest I’ve EVER heard Em spit. The writing, delivery, anger in his voice etc is all perfect. Book of Rhymes is a f---ing masterpiece
Dec 27, 2020 Why are you so boring? Still on that grandpa narrative you're making me fall asleep. Come at me with something clever. You sound like a broken record.
