Worst Rappers to have a classic album...

(1/15) > >>

So I did the thread best rappers to not have a classic album, now I'm doing worst rappers who were lucky and happened to register a classic.  I will start it off with the most obvious...

50 Cent-  Get Rich Or Die Trying   -   This album was a monster when it was released and Em and Dre were on a huge winning streak at the time and they put a battery in 50's back that couldn't fail.  The Ja beef was great entertainment and I remember Nas saying in an interview not too long ago that that album was the last time he felt hiphop was "alive" and I agree with him.  The album marked the last great era of rap.

I feel like game got better as a rapper over the years, but id still consider his rapping average. Still got classics, mainly thanks to dre.

Agreed.  This album was a success for many of the same reasons that the 50 Cent's first Aftermath release was a success.  

BIGWORM:
Snoop Doggy Dogg~Doggystyle

This album is un-fuckwidable from intro to outro... He hasn't made 1 track since that album that could top any song on that album.

Doggystyle is in my top 5 hip hop albums. Any of his others aren't in my top 50 hip hop albums.

Blood$:
T.I. or Jeezy

Sccit:
Jay-Z with reasonable doubt

Always though jay was an average rapper, but that albums a classic


Master P with the ghettos tryna kill me

Great businessman but was never a good rapper .. Still had some classics when he was doin his thing in the bay


DMX with flesh of my flesh

X got unmatched charisma and personality on the mic, but as far as a straight rapper, he was never amongst the best


Mack 10 - self titled

Mack 10 not a bad rapper, but not a great one neither .. Production carried him in his early days tho and he had classic work

You said he hasn't made one song since then that could top any song on that album?   I think you are forgetting Snoop never failed in his career up until the Doggfather album was released.  Anything before Doggfather with Snoop's name on it was fire. 

"21 Jumpstreet" with Tray Dee and "Whose Got Some Gangsta Shit" with Dogg Pound and LBC Crew were both up to Doggystyle standard, along with "Smooth" on the Dogg Pound album, and "2 of America's Most Wanted" with Pac. 

Maybe you say those aren't solo tracks, but still if you take that, along with his work on the Chronic, and other solid albums like Top Dogg, Last Meal, and the first Eastsidaz album—there's no way you can't say he's not one of the all-time greats.
