Absolute facts. If we're talking about influence alone Sosa comes in at number 1, no competition. He's this decade's Rakim lol.Ordinary Joel, DKC and Fire Squad like this. -

*Note* My personal favorite is Kanye. He isn't the most technically sound, but for the most part, gets the job done. Plus, he's the GOAT when it comes to crafting records. Has 5 certified classics under his belt.Ordinary Joel, Mraczewsky and Sav Stanfield like this. -

INT. @Big Cuntry's Home - dusk
The front door opens and BC ENTERS. He's late 20s, handsome but developing a working class potbelly. He's dressed like he works inside a mine, and carrying his empty lunch pail.
BC sighs, exhausted. He hangs up his hat on a nearby coat rack.
ENTER: BC's wife, mid twenties, Indian. She looks like Narsh in drag, a housewife's dress and apron. She dries her hand on a kitchen rag, as if she's just been cleaning.
BC WIFE:
Aw, Tay Tay. Dinner will be ready soon. How was your day, m'love?
They kiss.
BC:
Oh, good. Papa Alpha dominated me again. Yes, I capitulated. No, I don't want to talk about it. Is that brisket I'm smelling?

No doubt GKMC laid the foundation for an unabashedly old school west coast album like MKL to take off in the modern day, but YG was was running with that sound before Kendrick came along. MKL refined it and took it to the extreme, but you can hear the foundations for that sound forming on the first Just Re’d Up tape and that dropped a year before GKMC did.Ordinary Joel, Fire Squad and DKC like this. -

This doesn’t even really do his discography justice, Dynasty and Vol. 3 are nothing if not classics. Even his weaker albums have some some legendary songs on them.Ordinary Joel, Zeugma and Michael Myers like this. -

i think u were saying kendrick wasnt influential, hasnt influenced anyone lol. to the extent we can measure such a thing... you have been proven incorrect! and ya, both things can be true: future can have his (r&b infused) lane, kendrick his. i dont get the impulse online to play zero sum
and you know better than to pick on timmyt. he's special.Ordinary Joel, Zeugma and Michael Myers like this. -

unbelievable album. I've been meaning to post about it. Cannot believe it passed me by for so long. It feels like one of those all-time classics I would have been listening to for years on end, if I had known about it. Very glad I finally came around to it. I gotta check out the solo albums nextOrdinary Joel, Allis Mines and icecube like this. -
