[Jay’s] Black Album. Clipse, Lord Willin’. Uh, this is not an album, but The Little Brother/[Mick] Boogie mixtape [And Justus For All], that was like pivotal in my life. And then I would have to say, uh, I say [B.I.G.’s] Life After Death. And then I will say a toss up between The Love Below and Aquemini,” he said.
Also mentioned Tha Carter II & Doggystyle
Props to him for keeping it original but still naming dope ass albums like "Lord Willin" & "Tha Carter 2" (obviously not 2 of the greatest but dope albums and that's his opinion)
-
Wack list.

Wack list.

Lol y'all rather hear All Eyez On Me, Illmatic, Reasonable Doubt, Ready to Die & Death Certificate.
It's at least cool to hear something different.
-
about time Lord Willin' gets love all these years later first from Tyler and now Drake, that album was my fuckin' shit in 6th grade until 50 Cent came out

"Lord Willin" was one of the first albums I ever bought and still dig the fuck outta it

Those are classic albums. Son listed a fucking mixtape in his top five album list. Love below?! That album was ass cheeks. Andre singing is not the business.

Artistically, a lot of people LOVE "The Love Below." Look at the success it had. I'm not much of a fan personally but heck I know a lot of Outkast fans that dug the fuck outta it.
-
I'll leave it like this; he's entitled to his own opinion. However, me & him could never have a serious discussion about Hip Hop.
-
Wack list.
-
The success was based completely from hey ya and big bois single. Artistically it sucked dick, the only people that enjoyed that shit were douchebags. Let's be real, nobody still listens to that crap. Cee-lo green can make great albums singing. Andre can't.
-
All the albums he listed are great. What the fuck are people complaining about? If he was naming some wack or average shit I would understand but for sure his top 5 is more interesting than the ones that just copy the albums everyone else talks about. For the record, imo Love Below >>> Speakerboxxx.
-
Life after death was half the album ready to die was.
-
And again, love below was garbage. A bunch of bad prince impersonations and half baked ideas. If he named a prince album I could respect that, but some shitty pseudo wanna be album shows drake has shit taste and hasn't listened to music made before 1990.
-
Life after death was half the album ready to die was.
True. But that's like complaining that half the people here liking All Eyez On Me over Me Against the World. You can bitch about anyone's list not having a particular album on it, but its a moot thing to do.
-

That's your opinion. But it was almost universally praised. I suppose you think you know better than the rest of us though.
-
i think his list is indicative of the era he grew up in so i aint made at him...being that we're almost a decade apart in age i wouldnt expect it to match my list or any one else's in my age group....did anyone really expect dude to say illmatic or OBFCL? if he had named albums to that effect i woulda called bullshit as it being a 'safe' answer from him
-
Not only that, but he's listing some of the best music from that time period. If you question his list I have to question your taste in hip hop.
-

A little brother mixtape, love below are the best music?! Muthafucka please.
The only solid pick was black album. Lord willin isn't even clipse best album, nor is life after death biggies. This list sucks dick, and screams " look at me I'm different!" but your a fruity muthafucka yourself who loves to go against the grain just to go against it, so it's no surprise your co-signing this nonsense. If elzhi was where Royce was and Royce was where elzhi is career wise you'd be going Royce>>>>> in every elzhi thread. But instead it's the way it is now so you have to claim elzhi is better every Royce thread. You're a pretentious hipster rap fan, that much is obvious.

I don't buy this kinda thing. If you only listen to music that came out while you were growing up, your opinion is irrelevant. Some of my favorite music is decades older then me. It just shows you have limited taste and lack perspective. If a little brother mixtape is better then illmatic,The chronic, doggystyle etc your a fucking idiot.That's not even getting into other genres.
-
Lord Willin isn't the best Clipse album? You're trippin'

Hell hath no fury was easily better

Wack list.

what about 2Pac's "All Eyes On Me", Master P's "Ghetto D" or Outkast "Stankonia"

Drake has always mentioned how much of an influence Phonte had on his style and his career. I'm assuming that the memories and effects these albums and that mixtape have had on him obviously effected him more than any other albums. You can't hate on someones opinion, because it's just that, an opinion, makes you come off like an elitist cock.
I know a head who says that "Street Hop" is his favourite album of all time, and this cat lives hip hop through and through. People give certain albums an emotional attachment due to the time period they were listening to it and what they were going through, you may not agree with someones opinion but you have to respect it for what it is. Drake isn't saying these are the best albums of all time, they are HIS favourite albums. Get off your high horse.

i get what your saying but my point was that i don't have much faith in these younger cats seeking out music that is considered old to them...should they? yes. did i as a young hip-hop fan? yup. but do i realistically think that this younger generation of artist/fans actually seek out and study classic albums like that and are feeling them? not hardly, its just the way it is...this younger generation doesnt have the same respect for OG's like my generation did/does, i see it all the time
-

If you don't recognize that people have different musical tastes you're the idiot. Maybe he's into meaningful content over gangsta rap cliche. And Justus For All is far and away lyrically superior to Doggystyle and The Chronic. And people who aren't into lyrics about killing or P Funk wouldn't even like those albums.
Are you saying your top 3 albums are Illmatic, The Chronic and Doggystyle? Because that just sounds like you've been fed your music taste. Drake listing dope albums not everyone has heard >>> you reciting the 3 most popular mainstream albums from the 90s. Is everyone on here's music opinion void because most of us haven't listened to the biggest albums outside of rap?
-
Elzhi is better than Royce tho. Theres people who think Royce is better than Elzhi? Only thing Royce got is more material thats it. That said Drake is a fag and his list is bs. Dude puts a Little Brother mixtape instead of Minstrel Show or Listening. WTF?
-
Hell hath no fury was easily better
Now you're giving the easy answer. That's what critics seem to think but there's no way. It's a good album, but average ass tracks like "Momma I'm So Sorry", "We Got it for Cheap", "Ain't Cha" & "Ride Around Shining" don't exist on Lord Willin.
-
And again, love below was garbage. A bunch of bad prince impersonations and half baked ideas. If he named a prince album I could respect that, but some shitty pseudo wanna be album shows drake has shit taste and hasn't listened to music made before 1990.
on point. a lot of people hate that album cause they only really into hip hop, but this is the real reason it sucks. shitty prince

Co-sign.
Only hot track on that album was Mr Me Too. The track Wamp Wamp was really the track that ruined it for me.

To me, there was a few other hot ones too (Chinese New Year, Nightmares) but your right, "Wamp Wamp" was another dumb track.

i totally agree. a lot of these kids are brainwashed. those three arent in my top 5 either.
jays trolling again.......
-
Again you called big seans album classic, your opinion isn't relevant.LMAO at calling kids brain washed while thinking drake and big Sean are great artists. Take a look in the mirror at who's brain washed little guy.
I can hate on opinion pretty easily. Their is such thing as a stupid opinion, like drakes.
If some guy says battlefield earth is the greatest movie ever made, it's his opinion buts it's a stupid one and the person obviously has no taste.Anyone with this top five list is an idiot and has no taste.
Meaningful content? Rofl. Remind me of the meaningful content within lord willin, life after death, black album and love below. You're speaking out of your ass.
Illmatic is in my top five, not the others. Their "safe" choices for a reason, their amazing albums, true classics through and through. If those albums aren't in at least your top 20,you don't deserve to have an opinion.
And Lmao @ drake listing albums nobodies heard, what crack are you smoking? So people haven't heard love below, lord willin, the black album and life after death? Just stop talking. Those are all platinum plus albums.
-
If those are his favorites then what the hell is so hard to understand? OMG he doesnt have the albums I like boooohoooo ::)
-
Something tells me this is has more to do with the hate Drake gets on here rather than the albums he listed.
He names 5 albums with an underrated project & albums released in the 21st century and he gets hated on for not including cliche gangsta rap albums that were shoved down your throat in the 90's. And even if he did list your usual 5 (like Pac, Nas, Biggie, Snoop, Dre for example) he'd still get hated on for having a generic ass list...
-
So life after death isn't a cliche gangsta rap album?!
-
Don't critics and HH purists consider it mafioso rap?
-
Did you really just write that?
-
Don't critics and HH purists consider it mafioso rap?
those japanse school girl pics of urs r disturbing and goofy
-
Whatever...
What I originally wanted to say was that Drake's gonna get hated on for being Drake. No matter what he listed...
-
i dont understand what u see in these goofy lookin japanase girls, bro
-
If some guy says battlefield earth is the greatest movie ever made, it's his opinion buts it's a stupid one and the person obviously has no taste.Anyone with this top five list is an idiot and has no taste.
That comparison makes no sense. Battlefield Earth was one of the worst received movies of all time.
Meaningful content? Rofl. Remind me of the meaningful content within lord willin, life after death, black album and love below. You're speaking out of your ass.
I'll repeat myself since you weren't paying attention. And Justus For All is lyrically superior to Doggystyle and The Chronic. Do you disagree with this statement? Isn't Phonte better at rapping than Dre? Have you even listened to it?
Illmatic is in my top five, not the others. Their "safe" choices for a reason, their amazing albums, true classics through and through. If those albums aren't in at least your top 20,you don't deserve to have an opinion.
I remember you posting in the top 3 movies threads. You didn't mention Citizen Kane or Casablanca. Does that make your opinion on movies worthless? I'll tell you right now that the majority of people don't have illmatic, The Chronic and Doggystyle in their top 20. You know why? Because most people either listen to more than one genre or don't even listen to rap in the first place. Let alone those who do and don't base their music taste off of 90s mainstream releases. I swear you have one of the most close-minded views on music I have seen here. In your eyes if The Source doesn't give something 5 stars it must not be shit.
And Lmao @ drake listing albums nobodies heard, what crack are you smoking? So people haven't heard love below, lord willin, the black album and life after death? Just stop talking. Those are all platinum plus albums.
I was talking about And Justus For All obviously. Let's have your top 10. At this point I'm expecting you to recite a list of 5 mic albums.
-
So you speak about albums in both instances but both times it's not albums it's one mixtape. Make up your mind.
I was obviously limiting that to just hip hop albums and hip hop fans since this is a hip hop forum, genius.I've already stated I wasn't including other genres, that point obviously went over your head or you lack comprehension skills.
I'm close minded? Coming from the guy who doesn't listen to anything if it gets played on the radio that's pretty funny.Go back to making posts about being too good for Nikki minaj and arguing with elior who's more attractive you or him.
And who the fuck cares about it being lyrically better? I can find lots of albums lyrically better. That doesn't mean they are better albums.
Just out of curiosity how is it you've come to this conclusion of this source awards revelation?Because I said illmatic is better then a little brother mixtape? Rofl. Your hanging by a thread.
-
The success was based completely from hey ya and big bois single. Artistically it sucked dick, the only people that enjoyed that shit were douchebags. Let's be real, nobody still listens to that crap. Cee-lo green can make great albums singing. Andre can't.
just either ya equal with this comment why don't ya :-[ :-X hahahahha, i still bang that bitch on occasion, cee-lo sing better but i can't bang that fool albums long yell

I think it's a solid album and yes Wamp Wamp is a retarded song but the beat is so fucking dope that it doesn't matter to me. I still haven't heard "Hello New World" in its entirety. Pharrells hook is so horrible that i skip it every time.
-
y r yall arguing so much about Drake's Top 5 Albums of all time? that's some weirdo shit!
-
jay prolly broke his keyboard typing those emotional replies.
why are you so mad?

1) A mixtape used to mean something different. I don't really draw that much of a distinction.
2) You seemed pretty sure that everyone must have certain rap albums in their top 20. People like different genres, that also means they are going to like different sounds within genres as well. You can't accept that for some reason.
3) Yeah you are close-minded. By virtue of the fact you think everyone's favorite albums have to consist of established hip hop classics. Your argument sounds ridiculous.
4) I didn't say I thought it was a better album. But if you admit its lyrically weaker then surely you understand why some people wouldn't feel it? You can't expect everyone's taste to include simplistic lyrics about how hard you are over P-Funk samples.
5) Like I said earlier, your close-mindedness will not accept that people can love albums that haven't been praised by white hip hop journalists in the 90s. Albums don't become classics just based on their quality. They have to make an impact.
I'll ask again, have you even listened to And Justus For All? Because you don't sound like you have. And what's your top 10? You're either a sheep or your list is just as "wack" as Drake's is.

lmao you are an idiot. they are all great albums and him having an opinion and not just listening to hip hop to look cool like you do obviously considering you have no oppinion and just read off a list of top albums is sad. your the kind of guy who's top movie list would be Godfather, Casablanca, Citizen Cane, Shawshank Redemption & Gone with the Wind.
Yes Drake has emotion and his music and is dope. thats an opinion. i dont really like Big Sean but again that is an oppinion. I like all the shit you are talking to other people when nobody is laughing at anybody but you. my top 5 albums would be something like Tragedy Khadafi - Tragedy: Saga of a Hoodlum, Joe Budden - Mood Muzik 3, Snoop Dogg - Doggystyle, DMX - Its Dark and Hell is hot & Spice 1 - Amerikkka's Nightmare. do i think these should be everybodies? no. get over yourself and your stupid ass elitism everybody is laughing at your 13 year old ass who probs just googled best rap albums to sound cool in this thread. go to youtube and talk shit it flys there, here where people arent just sheep of some artist will realize you arent better than someone else.
So wait first people are stupid for listening to Big Sean & Drake now people are stupid because they dont like whats on the radio? ::)
-
Wack list.

I lost a lot of respect for people in this thread.
When talking opinion, it doesn't make sense. A lot of you are hypocritical. For example if someone say Wu-Tang & NWA are the greatest Hip Hop groups ever, you'd say that person is knowledgeable. But if somebody signed up tomorrow & was like "Lil' Wayne is the best rapper ever. Carter III & Carter IV are classics!", you would all stick your nose up at them. In a sense, that's what Drake did here. Sure, he named some dope albums. But nothing he said was in the league of Illmatic or OB4CL or Me Against The World.
I guess Radiotube is a prime example. None of you guys respect his musical taste & explode in laughter of his infamous quote saying Gucci Mane has better albums of Illmatic. He finds that music dope.
Now if you didn't understand my point, what I'm saying is basically agreeing with Jay that there is such a thing as a stupid opinion. Drake just named some albums some of you like, so you guys give him a pass. But if he said Gucci Mane & Lil' B, you'd be all over him.

....yes people give him a pass for not being a predictable albums and actually had albums he liked. i dont respect most people on here because its so obvious they dont listen to music they just pretend to like what you are supposed to like.
-
^But like I said, if you asked Radiotube his favorite albums & he said Gucci Mane's, Lil' B's, Waka Flocka's & OJ Da Juiceman's, you'd have a problem with it. It's hypocritical. You just happen to like the albums he named so you gave him a pass. But in the end, he has a stupid opinion.

...no...i dont care what anybody likes...its not a stupid opinion unless they are trolling. If they say Gucci is better than Nas instead of saying they prefer Gucci then that's stupid

Not that you would have a physical problem with it. But you'd say, "damn, you're retarded". Completely disrespecting his thoughts about it.

So you're saying anyone who doesn't have indisputed hip hop classics in their top 10 has a stupid opinion? You fall into that category for Budden being one of your favorite rappers. You're the guy who goes into threads saying you like Lil Wayne's music but can admit he's not that great a rapper. Its impossible for you to take Jaydc's side without ethering your own music taste.

Joe Budden is one of my favorite rappers. But I can admit the "regulars" in their prime were better. Same with Wayne. I can enjoy the music he makes, but at the same time in terms of Hip Hop, I can recognize that it's not good Hip Hop. Wayne makes enjoyable music for me, but he's not a great rapper.
I'm not in there throwing Padded Room & Carter III in the greatest albums of all time.

i think his list is indicative of the era he grew up in so i aint made at him...being that we're almost a decade apart in age i wouldnt expect it to match my list or any one else's in my age group....did anyone really expect dude to say illmatic or OBFCL? if he had named albums to that effect i woulda called bullshit as it being a 'safe' answer from him
/endthread
with that being said, its a pretty random favourite all-time album list...props to him for mentioning Little Brother tho

Not that you would have a physical problem with it. But you'd say, "damn, you're retarded". Completely disrespecting his thoughts about it.
I seriously wouldnt..what music you like says nothing about intelligence you cant help what you like.
Not overall intelligence. But your musical opinion is shot if you're throwing the Ferrari Boyz as the best artists.

I lost a lot of respect for people in this thread.
When talking opinion, it doesn't make sense. A lot of you are hypocritical. For example if someone say Wu-Tang & NWA are the greatest Hip Hop groups ever, you'd say that person is knowledgeable. But if somebody signed up tomorrow & was like "Lil' Wayne is the best rapper ever. Carter III & Carter IV are classics!", you would all stick your nose up at them. In a sense, that's what Drake did here. Sure, he named some dope albums. But nothing he said was in the league of Illmatic or OB4CL or Me Against The World.
I guess Radiotube is a prime example. None of you guys respect his musical taste & explode in laughter of his infamous quote saying Gucci Mane has better albums of Illmatic. He finds that music dope.
Now if you didn't understand my point, what I'm saying is basically agreeing with Jay that there is such a thing as a stupid opinion. Drake just named some albums some of you like, so you guys give him a pass. But if he said Gucci Mane & Lil' B, you'd be all over him.
So you're saying anyone who doesn't have indisputed hip hop classics in their top 10 has a stupid opinion? You fall into that category for Budden being one of your favorite rappers. You're the guy who goes into threads saying you like Lil Wayne's music but can admit he's not that great a rapper. Its impossible for you to take Jaydc's side without ethering your own music taste.
Joe Budden is one of my favorite rappers. But I can admit the "regulars" in their prime were better. Same with Wayne. I can enjoy the music he makes, but at the same time in terms of Hip Hop, I can recognize that it's not good Hip Hop. Wayne makes enjoyable music for me, but he's not a great rapper.
I'm not in there throwing Padded Room & Carter III in the greatest albums of all time.
FAVORITE not GREATEST. pretty easy distinction

I won't take his suggestions for music...but doesnt change that his opinion is his...im not gonna berate him with insults....it's sad what it says about peoples fears of not being considered hip hop heads so they save Enter the Wu-tang, Illmatic, Liquid Swords, The Low end Theory & Midnight Marauders are their fav albums instead of listing the albums they most enjoy. I enjoyed the shit out of Blueprint 2 even though most people think it was a forgettable album but to me it was one of my fav jay-z albums. Someone doesnt like me for it then good for them. I don't know them and it's pretty sad that opinions mean that much to them.

I wish he had said The Black Album by Metallica. That would have been realy refreshing. (especially since it doesn't even make most Metallica boards top 5 Metallica albums)

Not really. Those are just the best albums, so naturally they should make the list. Nobody is trying to look credible, they just aren't stupid.
But you're the same nigga who use to make 100 threads about "what's the best ____?" & all the options were classic 90's East Coast music. So you're a hypocrite.

Can't say it really surprises me, this is Drake we're talking about.

lol again saying intelligence is related to music. You obviously enjoy Joe Budden more than most but would be afraid that it isnt top 5....yes years ago i made those threads. I have matured and actually grew my bad. Music appeals to different people so if all this shit = top 5 automatically it gets rid of any actual interpretation of music which is what makes it so great. I'm sorry you dont relate to your music or feel something special to it, instead you just look at it technical and take all the passion out of it.

I'd laugh yeah, but I would be all over his posts, spamming him. I'd let him suffer with that shitty music alone.

i think his list is indicative of the era he grew up in so i aint made at him...being that we're almost a decade apart in age i wouldnt expect it to match my list or any one else's in my age group....did anyone really expect dude to say illmatic or OBFCL? if he had named albums to that effect i woulda called bullshit as it being a 'safe' answer from him
I don't buy this kinda thing. If you only listen to music that came out while you were growing up, your opinion is irrelevant. Some of my favorite music is decades older then me. It just shows you have limited taste and lack perspective. If a little brother mixtape is better then illmatic,The chronic, doggystyle etc your a fucking idiot.That's not even getting into other genres.
Drake has always mentioned how much of an influence Phonte had on his style and his career. I'm assuming that the memories and effects these albums and that mixtape have had on him obviously effected him more than any other albums. You can't hate on someones opinion, because it's just that, an opinion, makes you come off like an elitist cock.
I know a head who says that "Street Hop" is his favourite album of all time, and this cat lives hip hop through and through. People give certain albums an emotional attachment due to the time period they were listening to it and what they were going through, you may not agree with someones opinion but you have to respect it for what it is. Drake isn't saying these are the best albums of all time, they are HIS favourite albums. Get off your high horse.
Preach!
Example, if i made my own favorite list, Cam'rons Purple Haze would be on there. That album came out when i got my first car and me and my homies were always out in some shit. We were 17 so we were just on rhe verge of adulthood. That album always takes me back.
Theres a difference between favorite and greatest. And quite frankly i respect the artist that dont give us the same old list.

So in your eyes every rapper that's gotten acclaim is better than your favorite rapper? Way to have faith in your own music taste :laugh:
Bottom line, if you don't absolutely love an album, what's it doing in your top 10? I know for a fact that you and Jaydc don't fuck with every hip hop classic. I guarantee there's a few albums that you've listened to and didn't understand what's so great about it. The same can be said of anyone.
I fuck with Masta Ace because I believe his music is the shit. Yeah he's probably the least known member of the Juice Crew. But in my eyes he's the best out of them. So sue me if I get more out of his discography than I do Big Daddy Kane's. I'm not saying you can't think someone else's music taste is wack. But it should be because you think the music itself is wack, not because they mentioned 5 albums you like instead of the top 5 albums white hip hop journalists write about in nostalgia pieces. Develop your own taste and stop being a sheep.

Wack list.

far too many people pretend that they "did their time" and got into all the classic rap albums of the 80s & 90s but i bet you theyd struggle to even name a song from kane, tribe etc. just because something is universally recognised as classic they feel that got to say they like it, even if they dont listen to it. altho i dont fuck with drakes music i respect his list because its REAL, its what he likes not just what everyone else says is classic

lord willin is in my top album list classic...
