Having three wack albums = opinion

Multiple multiplatinum albums, multiple real hit songs, one of the most anticipated albums in rap history, an album even his foes (Fat Joe, Game after the split, Joe Budden during their "beef", Jay-z after he received a few shots, Nas) consider classic worthy, Platinum and Gold underlings, successful sneaker and clothing line, a huge overseas fanbase = fact.

If you actually use your head, you'd realize this shit isn't Rocket Science..............

nigga gtfoh u bump flockaveli daily...

lemme put it this way..

ud rather start off on defjam wit a classic sellin 2 mill and end up on a label under koch's level sellin 2500 per year 5 years later??

obviously not lol, but what im saying is once you drop a classic your automatically a legend imo. Ross is on his way to being a legend he has 3 great albums and one subpar(trilla imo)

After all the posts here, still no explanation on what Ross has done to earn legendary status other than be popular, sell, and modestly improve.

An album....keyword. Singular. One. Lonely. By itself. His only imput worth talkin about in Hip Hop. The rest of his career is a wash. And dun...everything is subjective. We're all talking through opinion.

Get your dumbass out of here bruh...

PLEASE DO NOT START A HIP HOP DEBATE WITH ME...YOU WILL LOSE.

Too Short was the worst rapper to ever pick up a mic. If he's legend status...then people sound stupid scoffing at Ross.

ATCQ sold millions of records but, the casual fan DOESN'T KNOW THEM. That's why I called them & Too Short "lowkey legends". Hip Hop heads can show love & respect for UGK or Kool G Rap or Too Short or Big L but.........17 year old Mike from Omaha, Nebraska would have no fucking idea what "Pocket Full of Stones" was. 20 year old Lucy from Orange County, California would have no fucking idea what "Born to Mack" was. Because eventhough the Hip Hop Community considers them legends, the general population doesn't know them. In Contrast.........EVERYBODY knows who Biggie, Pac & Jay-Z are. But you'd be a dumbass to think they're the only legends. That's like saying The Rolling Stones are the only great rock band.

Fat Joe? SMH. You can't be serious. One of the criteria I said.........is actually making dope songs. Dope verses, dope hooks, dope beats. Not just Cory Gunz like spitting for 3 minutes. And yes....I've listened to DITC.

Calm yo self.

lol at Too Short being the worst rapper to pick up the mic, he might not have been a great lyricist but he is one of the greatest storytellers and game spitters ever in rap. Too Short is why niggas like Baby, Pimp C, Snoop,E40,etc ever had a lane in rap. The nigga has 6 platinum and 3 gold albums, what does Ross have again???????????????

ATCQ has 4 albums and all of them went platinum, Ross has 5 albums and 4 went gold, YET THE CASUAL FANS DON'T KNOW WHO ATCQ IS??????????? What kind of country ass logic is that? Is it because they aren't making music anymore, or came out in the 90's because their music still stand the test of time and you can feel their influence today on guys like Kanye, Lupe, Outkast,etc. Nothing you are typing makes no fucking sense, dudes like ATCQ and Too Short still do major concerts and festivals, how the fuck would you know what people listen to behind closed doors or see on tour. Don't speak for no general public like you what people think, i bet you think Wacka and Gucci are the biggest artist in the world even though their sales don't reflect it.

LOL at Fat Joe all you want, he has platinum albums which Ross doesn't, has mainstream hits which Ross doesn't, has longevity which Ross doesn't, in his prime a better mc than Ross.

For one...Fat Joe dropped a lot of records before downloading became as rampant. Anybody could sell millions of records back then. Nigga Shaquille O'neal went Platinum. Shaq. A fucking 7 foot 2 Basketball player sold 1,200,000 records in the 90s.

For two....Go to the nearest Mall & ask a bunch of teenage kids if they know who a Tribe Called Quest is. Ask them who Phife is? Ask them to recite a lyric from a song. Good luck.....even Lupe Fiasco forgot the lyrics.
