"LET THAT #$*#% BREATHE"
AG may be a classic, I just think people need more time with it. The thing is to compare AG to "classic" albums like Illmatic, RD, 36 Chamberes, Etcisn't going to fly with alot of people right now because it is simply to recent. We have all had 10+ years with the above albums I mentioned, and evenmore time with other older "classics" to realize the genius and the classic nature of the material. As far as my personal thoughts, the album isbutter, and will continue to get spins from me for years to come, as far as how history will define AG only time will tell.
One thing though, if you dont think AG is classic thats fine, but please god dont let me hear anyone say that The Carter III or Graduation is even debatablyclassic. Those albums dont even deserve to be mentioned with AG imo, two different levels.
