In 2018, someone in hip-hop HAS to drop a classic album. It's time.

    I know, but in general, TPAB is more praised by critics and fans

    There are people still catching up to it. I think it is personally. I also loved that whole roll-out and era. But not everybody did as much. I think by the end of it all that will be the album people look at as "the one". I don't think Butterfly is the only album to go through this kind of treatment.

    I'm really talking about an album that right off the bat everybody is like "This is the one. WOW." Like, there's no room for uncertainty.

    Chance probably has the most eyes on him right now overall. I think once he starts his debut album rollout there will be a CRAZY amount of hype around it. He could drop a classic if he really locks in. He has a unique sound. Has the resources. His skills and creativity are there too. I wanna say he is the easiest pick for 'maybe' being the next one.

    I want Em to pull through, but the first single isn't doing so well. Hopefully the rest will blow people away and surpass expectations.

    Still my n----- Nasir left too. Hope he came with it even more on his album. Been hyped up for a while.

    There won't be another classic in hip hop and I think the main reason is tthese forums and s---. There are so many people right now talkin' about albums. The guy who has only listened few rap albums and a guy who has listened tons of rap albums can comment on an album and both of their opinions are counted. Back in the days, there was no random fans like us commentin' on albums like that. I mean think of Biggie's albums. They were considered classic by people but mainly critics and other rappers were saying it's classic. Similar goes with THe Eminem Show or MMLP too. If they were released after like 2006-07 they won't be undeniable classics. U said GKMC is a classic. I'll tell u there are people who s----s on it. Who thinks TPAB is a lpot better etc. Too many opinions. Back then, few rappers saying an album was classic made it classic. I don't know if I could made my point understandable.
