Wtf

Album Rating: 2.0

Disagreed so hard. If anything, Dark Fantasy has aged better than anything else he's done.

Thought it was an objective fact that this one has aged the best and will continue to age the best

yeeeeppp

Album Rating: 5.0

its certainly aged better than anything pre-808s *hits the deck*

Super cool video I just came across: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8taR8OMDdo

Albums ranked by how well they've aged aka how the songs would sound if I randomly threw them into a playlist dominated by hip hop released in the past like 18 months (excluding TLOP ofcourse):
Yeezus
MBDTF/Throne
808s
Late Reg
College Dropout
Graduation

TLOP still sounds super fresh right now, but it certainly won't in like five years when trap inevitably evolves into something unrecognizable/gets completely pushed into obscurity by a new sound.

Didn't you just say that multiple songs from tlop already found dated like yesterday

Yes, but because some tracks don't really fit contextually after the album's initial release, not because of the album's overall sound/aesthetic

"Blac Chyna helping Rob with the weight" w/e, "Does anybody feel bad for Bill Cosby? Did he forget the names just like steve harvey", the "Panda" sample, "I love kanye"... moments that don't really warrant any reason to exist past the first part of 2016 imo.

Oooohhhhhhhhhh. Makes sense

Watch the throne is a bad album

Album Rating: 2.0

Not to be a duck but, LOL @ implying the quality of music is directly proportional to how "fresh" it sounds when mixed with today's trendy fads.

???????? Never implied that, or at least didn't mean to.

Also, I feel like the phrases "dated" and "aged" carry an unnecessary negative connotation. Aquemini may or may not be my fave hip hop album of all time, but there is not question that that album sounds dated af. In fact, 99% of hip hop pre-2014 sounds varying degrees of dated today if were being honest. Doesn't mean it's bad music.

Oh, thats the impression I gathered lol

College dropout and graduation are definitely the most dated sounding albums of his

Album Rating: 3.5

But college dropout is still one of his best. If not his best

MBDTF, lr, and 808s all slay dropout tbh
