    CB had a few radio songs so it got some mainstream recognition because of white girls. I'd definitely say the majority of chance fans were disappointed and it received bad response in the hip hop community, as you can see in this thread.

    I'd say the saturation series is the most overrated. I fw it big time but d-ck riders hyped it out of proportion.

    Yeezus is too polarizing to be overrated

    Yeezus is a lot of things. "Overrated" isn't one of them.

    The fact that there are still people who haven't accepted Yeezus as the greatest album in history is proof that it's underrated

    Any outkast album as well. Could never never get through a whole album. Too much filler. Nas illmatic is also a snooze fest

    Many people who follow rap closely were disappointed by coloring book, but it was a HUGE cross-genre success.

    I liked it quite a bit when it dropped, but it's way too many songs and feels kinda one note, which wears thin pretty fast. I think it's a decent album (songs like No Problem haven't left my rotation since), but it's definitely not the 9/10 classic people were making it out to be.

    Chance set expectations way high with his Ultralight Beam verse and never really met them.

    What puts me off CB as a whole is that, while it's pretty similar to his ULB verse in terms of content, CB really turns it up to eleven. I'm not religious in the slightest but I don't have a problem with Christian rap as a general rule (Malice's post-Clipse stuff is underrated), but Coloring Book was too much and kinda creeped me out, like I was being brainwashed by listening to it.
