jacked this from another form............

"lets put this in perspective its like nelly dropping in 2020 an still be relevant

its like hove dropping in 2016 an still being relevant

its like 50 droping in 2023 an still being relevant

its like nas dropping in 2014 an still being relevant

yall get the picture

LL has an the greatest longevity of any artist ever in hiphop.

1985 radi drops......20 years later 2004 he drops another LP that debuts high on the charts an has the #1 video on 106 an park.We will never see an artist who spaned the run DMC,whoodinee Fat boy era an is doing it in the kanye west,nelly,eminem,50, outkast, hov era"


by the way,  i dont feel the album at all but you have to give him MAJOR props for what he has done..........

his shiet sell just cuz people like to hear all his albums went platinum. same with Snoop. I wouldnt be suprised if Def Jam pulled some cards to make that happen.

Nah, def jam doesn't have to do anything to help him.  LL has tons of fans, older folks who've listened to him for years.  There's probably 500 thousand women in America who buy every album he puts out.  Maybe some of them haven't heard he's got a new album out yet, lol.

I actually had the displeasure of listening to the album. It's a solid 1 mic. I feel sorry for anyone who spent money on it. I give LL props for staying in the game for so long but he may want to consider hanging up the mic for good.

actually I do think if Nas still drops in 2014 it will be still relevant.

LL doesnt make the best music, so no Goat to me. He's been in the game for a while, and still dropping. Wow.

You think Dre wouldnt sell a shitload if he wasnt to scared and arrogant to release further Albums? Huh?

Not to forget pac lol.. since the early 90's in the game, since the mid 90's dead and still selling ...

Further, I'd rather see MC's stopping to put Albums out after 10 good years than see them ruining their lagecy with whack ass Definitions.

I don't know if his legacy would ever be passed.  Pac would've done it but for now his record is untouchable

Eminem is the only one that I can see still doing this later on.  If Jimmy Buffet can move major units at his age, I think Em could as well.

shit l.l can got platinum in new york alone..he really dont need any other states

pac cant be compared 2 l.l. kuz l.l. been goin platinum since 85 so that means his 1st album went platinum as well...pac shit didnt do nuthin until his demise...

its only 6 people in the game now that are close to catch l.l.'s platinum streak and thats
outkast
snoop
jay-z
eminem
nas

and its funny wit all this shit been said...canibus coulda ended his career... but l.l ended his shit be4 it got even started..much talent as canibus has..he couldnt stay in the spotlight long enough 2 dethrone him

cube woulda past him..but he fell off big time..
