[MARIO_DRO]

AQUEMINI AINT HIGH ENOUGH

 

[TheGOAT]

Classic is if someone stands the test of time. So why when it comes to reasonable doubt, it's always brought up about how much it sold when it came out? That album has a impact NOW. the shit y'all talking is ass backwards

Its a great album, but I can't say its the 6th best Hip Hop album of all time.

He has albums that I'd rank higher.

Reasonable Doubt Over Cuban Linx And AEOM? Some Revisionist Bullshit

Yeah Reasonable Doubt didn't make a peep when it dropped.

This argument is always dumb

It dont matter what happened in the moment... Carter3 was all the hype when it dropped dont make it better than RD

RD >>>>> all the albums listed in this thread

@ the bolded. Thats a matter of opinion.

Saying Reasonable Doubt didn't make a peep when it dropped is a matter of fact.

RD was a good album, but The Score came out around the same time. That album was huge and it still has replay value.

Whats your point?

The popularity of an album when it 1st dropped dont make it better than another.

Illmatics came out a couple weeks before Beastie Boys Ill Communication

Beastie Boys album was way bigger... Made more "noise"

Illmatic the better album

For an album to stand the test of time and prove itself better in the long run makes it more impressive

1. Ill Communication was a decent album. In fact, I saw them at Lalapalooza with A Tribe Called Quest, Green Day, George Clinton and a handful of other groups I can't remember.

2. Are you saying impact isn't a factor when comparing albums? I can think of some dope albums that didn't have any impact at all. I'd say an album that made a big impact is inherently better than an album that didn't make an impact...in most cases, Please Hammer Don't Hurt Em notwithstanding.

I dont agree with that at all

Niggaz always kill me with that "it wasn't that big when it came out so it's not great now" argument like wtf isn't the true test of how great a album is is it's staying power??? If the album gets better as years goes by ain't that better then just coming out the gates fast then that's it
