The Infamous is incredibly better than Juvenile Hell







No doubt. That comment made me laugh for some reason or another.

Pac - Me Against the World and All Eyez on Me are exponentially better than 2Pacalypse Now.

 

[flatbushfiyah23]

Tribe
Common- Be>>>>>his previous work. (flame me)

 

[young retroz]

Nas IWW>>>> Illmatic imo

I agree with this statement. Mobb Deep would also be grouped in that category if it wasn't for "Juvenile Hell", although a gang of folksdon't even know it exists.

JAY- Z???? someone please explain. Saying the blueprint I would not agree, but multiple???? Eminem and Mobb Deep is what I got.

 

[dmbrhs]

I can think of plenty:

Outkast
Dave Matthews Band
Britney Spears
Nirvana
Led Zeppelin

I mean, we could do this all night.

 

[huuud]

John Legend, Once Again>Get Lifted

Not that I feel this way but I am surprised no one has said LAD>RTD

 

[chozin87]

i'm gonna say yes

 

[the sauna]

Eminem
Tupac
Wayne
T.I.
Fat Joe
Outkast
Ghostface

 

[free the chief]

No Mace. Incorrect.

Although Em may have been more skilled earliest in his career, he reached a "functional peak" with his raw talent and honed his song writing on EmShow. Remeber, he was wasting all that talent on songs like Maxine....

Thank GOD there's still a few real heads in here. Came in here to say . . .

Public Enemy (why did it take so long for them to be mentioned??)

EPMD (same as above)

Naughty By Nature

The Beatnuts

DMX

Dialated Peoples

Hi Tek

Lloyd Banks

KRS One

Tragedy Khadafi

Masta Ace

Master P

Cormega

Onyx

And a few of the other thoughtful responses . . .

 

[NCtwin]

DMX
What album was better that "It's Dark and Hell is Hot"¿

 

[eentegra]

a tribe called quest puts out records better than their last ones. my fav group, by the way.

 

[golfalphabravoecho]

Joe Budden - I don't care what you say. His work after Joe Budden is phenomenal.

 

[zokid]

IMO it's hard to classify one 'Kast album as the best because the sound and content is so different from one album to the next. I would classify them as 1a., 1b., etc. instead of 1,2,3...
wow, i like that.. but i still think Aquemini is their best effort

Flesh of my flesh might be better than its dark and hell is hot...

and ya like i said, BLUEPRINT>RD

 

[true 3 blue]

Lloyd Banks? wtf

 

[blazinjkid]

Masta Ace
Ace is like the complete opposite. dude has been in the game for 20+ years and his albums just get better and better.

i'm surprised nobody has said the Fugees yet...

 

[ipodschun]

Though I know most people here don't care about the artists I list...

The Beatles: late Beatles > early Beatles
The Clash: London Calling
Tool: Not sure of the regular opinion of Tool fans, but AEnima > Undertow for me
!!!: Myth Takes > older stuff
Blackalicious: Blazing Arrow > Nia
Ugly Duckling: Bang for the Buck > Journey to Anywhere

 

[mez 0ne]

Supreme Clientele>Ironman

DMX - Flesh Of My Flesh > Its Dark & Hell Is Hot
Onyx - All We Got Iz Us > Bacdafucup (by a lil bit)
Lloyd Banks - Rotten Apple >>>>>>>>>>> The Hunger For More

Hunger For More is overrated, that *+%% was a complete mess IMO outside of maybe 4 or 5 songs . . . G Unit was just poppin at the time when it dropped soeverybody was on the bandwagon, that album is by NO means entertaining at all, the production was just awful. Rotten Apple is slept on, and it dropped at atime when kids who don't think for themselves started to dislike G Unit, thats New York album to the core, I throw thta in the whip and drive through theburough and the *+%% just fits . . . Just sounds right.

 

[mez 0ne]

^ You are probably the only person in existence who believes Flesh of my Flesh is better than Hell is Hot.

 

[starvin harlem]

"Ready To Meet Him", "Comin From", & "Slippen" >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>ANYthing on Its Dark

 

[rudygay22uconn]

JAY- Z???? someone please explain. Saying the blueprint I would not agree, but multiple???? Eminem and Mobb Deep is what I got.

what the hell is so hard to comprehend??? I think the "Blueprint" and "The Black Album" are better than "Reasonable Doubt" IMO.
