    A personal dream collab that was rushed and could have been a million times better.

    Kingdom Come. Hov's big comeback, followup to the monumental Black Album, and it ended up being his consensus worst album

    Til the Casket Drops - it's not terrible—there's some great tracks on there, but it just doesn't reach the heights of HHNF or Lord Willin' or even some of the mixtapes.

    Jesus is King. It was so disappointing hearing all the leaks that had potential for him to turn things around post-ye and then seeing him turn them into that.

    4 Real 4 Real - Again, not terrible and there's some good stuff on there, but it doesn't come close to the peaks of his first two albums or even those on Stay Dangerous.

    Can-I-Bus. All the hype that went into that album, all of Canibus' cameos, his beef with LL. The industry was looking to him like some sort of messiah. Then that album drops and it's trashcan water.

    Interesting take, considering most felt some type of way about his shift in It Was Written. I do agree with this notion, remove some of the weaker cuts on I Am and it's pretty close to It Was Written.

    Been listening to his catalog lately and there are always some of songs on his finest albums where I'm just sitting there pondering on what h--- made him think "yeah, this cool, yo Salaam let's put Zone Out after Last Real N**** Alive" :lawd:

    I don't really agree that Kingdom Come is his worst album, it's way better than it gets credit for, I'd take it over BP3 and MCHG every time. Public perception is just that it was a disappointing comeback and Jay himself considers it his worst work which reinforces its rep as a failure.

    MMLP and TES. Also Kamikaze was very lackluster coming off of Revival. Definitely expected more.

    Following Indicud there was 2 years of Cudi hyping up MOTM3 and instead putting out an album that had not one good song, not a one. One of the worst pieces of s--- ever made.

    And there was Chance gassing up his album as one of the greatest things we'll ever hear for like 3 yrs after Coloring Book. With how much hype he was pouring into it, plus his features & loosies in 2018, i thought we were in for some GOAT level return to form. Then he announced that his "Owbum" was about to come out. Thats when i knew.

    Seen you post and was expecting the worst. Luckily that opinion of yours wasn't so bad in this case.

    Oh well at least we got Deja Vu out of it.

    d--- I didn’t know Larry Nasir dropped a mixtape before he hit prison. Good for him. I’ll have to check it out even if you think it’s a letdown.

    I don't know it Kanye will ever pull it back now. Its so sad.

    Relapse was incredible to me. Still is. The moment we got survival followed by the MMLP2 logo, we knew we were in for some bad times.

    Relapse comes to mind.

    I was a big Wiz fan in high school, so ONIFC was also a let down.

    B.o.B was top tier pop rap for his first two albums and the mixtapes in between, but went off the deep end ever since

    I was just replaying the Adventures of B. O. B and it reminded me how badly he fell off. Anything from 2014 onwards was seriously trash by comparison to his debut. Kendrick also didn't impress me much with to p---- a butterfly. Revival is also on this list.

    What other albums were letdowns?
