04.17.11 | dont' see what there's not to like about 5, it's pretty accesible |
Polymath
04.17.11 | 5? Really man? Give it a couple of more listens because it's truly essential. |
Hocmat
04.17.11 | I agree with 1,2,3 I can't do the G-Funk. But 4 and 5 are FUCKING CLASSIC. Listen to them more. |
KeithStone582
04.17.11 | I find it very hard to believe that you can't get into 4 and 5. |
Polymath
04.17.11 | Come on man spin 5 NOW! I mean how can you not love C.R.E.A.M. |
DoubtGin
04.17.11 | like 5 or gtfo |
Inveigh
04.17.11 | yeah 5 is my favorite hip hop album ever. 4 actually took me a minute to get into too. I can see not liking the first 3 if you don't like that style. |
Polymath
04.17.11 | As long as you got 5 down it's all good.
Yes Inveigh 5 IS the best hip-hop album ever! |
Inveigh
04.17.11 | I feel like as long as your top 5 includes Ready to Die, 36 Chambers and Illmatic (and preferably either ATLiens or Aquemini) then it's pretty legit |
Superbus
04.17.11 | if you don't like wu-tang you don't like rap, simple as that |
Polymath
04.17.11 | Lol. How many times have you listened to Enter the Wu? |
Hocmat
04.17.11 | Yeah please tell me you've listened to it more than 5 times before "not being able to get into it".
Illmatic honestly took me a while, then one day after getting high and going for a longboard it hit me
straight in the face. Now it's my #1 album. Give the Wu some time to grow on you and listen to it
more. |
Polymath
04.17.11 | Just give it one more listen and see if anything clicks. If not then oh well...you tried. Can't blame ya. |
Polymath
04.17.11 | Awesome, hope it works, and it's all about C.R.E.A.M. Dolla dolla bill yall. |
DoubtGin
04.17.11 | Illmatic was like the most accessible rap album, imo. |
Maniac!
04.17.11 | 5 took me forever to get into
now I have it 5'd
listen to it more |
Maniac!
04.17.11 | I SAID DO IT |
Hocmat
04.17.11 | You have Illmatic as a 3 but Kanyes new album as a 5... I'm even facepalming. Sorry dude. |
psykonaut
04.17.11 | i can actually understand someone not liking 5, even though it's amazing
but 3? you must not have a soul |
iisblackstar
04.17.11 | 4 took me ages to get into mate, except for 'put it on', and took me a couple of listens for 5 but seriously i think its pretty impossible to genuinely like hip hop and not love that album |
HalfManHalfAmazing
04.17.11 | I can see why you wouldn't like Amerikkka's Most Wanted. Most white people don't. |
Maniac!
04.17.11 | DON'T ARGUE WITH ME MOTHERFUCKER
I SAID DO IT
SO DO IT |
somberlain
04.17.11 | Death Certificate > Amerikkka's Most Wanted more accessible also
4 is overrated btw, very good but not the classic that some claim it is |
DoubtGin
04.17.11 | ice cube was so dope back in the day |
HalfManHalfAmazing
04.17.11 | I assumed because of the 'KKK' and anti-American imperialist moral of the album |
HalfManHalfAmazing
04.17.11 | Fucking American imperialists |
MCGF
04.18.11 | 4? you can't get into 4? I understand the rest, but 4? :( |
dnor
04.18.11 | Wu-Tang Clan...
They're nothing to fuck with. |
sublimefan1991
04.18.11 | holy shit thank you. i legit think old school rap is THE most overrated thing on this site. i only have 3 on this list, and would have the others, but all the old school, supposedly "classic" albums i've got have sucked (mobb deep's "the infamous," gang starr's "hard to earn," and of course the chronic; hell even "ready to die" didn't strike me as impressive). those all suck, so i can def see where you're coming from. |
BigHans
04.18.11 | All of these are great. 4 is probably the weakest. |
BigHans
04.18.11 | Oh and anyone who thinks Ready to Die isnt great has zero business listening to Hip Hop |
Maniac!
04.18.11 | sublime is the resident retard |
Idnuf
04.18.11 | Anyone with the name "band name-fan-year of birth" has an astronomically high chance of being an idiot. |
tom79
04.19.11 | what's not to like about 5? |
demigod!
04.19.11 | 36 CHAMBERS IS PERFECT THO |
MCGF
04.19.11 | 1 does suck. 1 sucks really bad |
