    So far we have Kanyes Discog, Eminems pre retirement discog, Take Care and NWTS, GKMC and TPAB, GRODT, Tha Tour Pt 1, the Carter series, and Piñata, amongst a few others I've probably forgotten since the turn of the millennium. Do y'all think Compton could be added into the ranks in the coming years?

    Probably at first due to the name attached to it but I think people will come to their senses eventually.

    I'm the last person to over hype old artists, I think both pac and big are the most overrated artists ever etc etc but I'd love this album just as much if, say, Vince staples released it.

    It's not just the name but also the decade of waiting for this project. This is a good to very good album don't get me wrong. Production throughout is fantastic but it isn't a classic.

    Maybe, maybe not. I feel like the quality alone could prove to be enough.

    Why are you telling me to chill the f--- out? Lol I'm not the one claiming this album is a classic or best album in the past decade like some have.

    In a couple months when the hype for this album dies down, it's going to be interesting to hear what people think about this project. I feel like people's opinions will be a lot more rational then.

    I didn't even have time to give myself unrealistic expectations or false hope like I would with a new Eminem album. It was just a week ago we heard about it and the whole time I was in shock and didn't quite process what it was that we were getting. It was more of like a I'll believe it when I see it attitude. I liked the short wait, no single, keep it on the hush approach they used.

    Let's be honest. If Watch the Throne is even slightly considered near classic, which it was. This is EASILY safe as a modern classic.
