"I remember you was conflicted
Misusing your influence
Sometimes I did the same
Abusing my power, full of resentment
Resentment that turned into a deep depression
Found myself screaming in the hotel room
I didn’t wanna self destruct
The evils of Lucy was all around me
So I went running for answers
Until I came home..."

I dont know if I fully agree, but I do know why you were driven to say that.This is the most Important album in the history of Black music.

I don't wanna come off as a purist but I think before you post your uninformed opinion let us know when you were introduced to hip hop. I've been a part of this culture for around 25 years.
My knowledge and love for hip hop predates my actual introduction to the genre. I remember hip hop BEFORE 2Pac. Before Biggie.NaS.Jay.Wu-Tang. How many of y'all can say that and mean it?
It's guys in here that never bought The Source magazine and immediately go to the last 20 or so pages. If I lost you, it'a not your position to really speak on.
In hip hop there's always a new great one or a changin of the guard. Melle Mel and Caz reigned supreme at one point. Then KRS One came for Melle Mel and earned his name. Same as Busy Bee and Kool Moe Dee. You don't think cats like Kurtis Blow knew their days were numbered when 'Paid In Full' dropped? In hip hop sometimes you just know. Rakim.Kane.Slick Rick. They KNEW when they was hearin NaS.Jay.Pac.BIG. that a new day had come.
Illmatic got 5 mics before anyone outside of Columbia and hip hop journalist could hear it, so there's no such thing as too early for something to be CLASSIC. Illmatic has done pretty well, 21 years later. Miss Info was right. I remember my big homie Lil Rob (GOD bless the dead) me and him used to argue who was better Mobb Deep or 2Pac, I was riding with Mobb he was a 2Pac fan, well guess what, he was right. This is 20 years ago. And Pac is in a Powerade commercial and he's on the #1 album in the country almost 20 years after his death.

If you don't like the album that's your choice.
It was people that called Martin & Malcolm troublemakers..
It's slaves that didn't wanna escape to freedom.
There's black Republicans.
For every Marcus Garvey it's goin be a few Clarence Thomas's.
Remember when they was tryin END hip hop?
Russell Wilson's your avy and you don't seem to be intuned with the BLACKEST album this genre may have ever seen.
I'm not surprised.
This album is not for everyone. It's revealing to see those it is not for. not all 85ers is goin get this, that's fine. That's why they're the 85%
This isn't even an album. This isn't music. This is the 400 year journey of the black diaspora in the Western hemisphere.
Listened to Whats Goin On 3 times yesterday as a I do every Sunday. The 2 albums this reminds me most of are Whats Goin On and Rhythm Nation.
And you do realize there's music that predates Marvin Gaye and The Lost Poets? But we remember those the most. This album gonna be the same. Y'all are so obsessed with living solely based on yesterday's knowledge and accomplishments. You don't think when 'What's Goin On' came out people didn't know and appreciate it for what it was? You think they needed a decade to know it was an AMAZING piece of work?
Y'all are obsessed with revisionist history. Always wanna look back and say what's great but won't see GREATness in the here and now. Did someone else have to tell you Thriller was somethin special?
'What's Goin On' is easily one of my fav albums and to this day I STILL don't like "Right On". So the notion of CLASSIC album not havin bad songs is nonsense. Illmatic has "One Time For Ya Mind" Ready To Die has "Friend Of Mine" it happens.
There's songs that may have worked better on TPAB but even in Ali's greatest fights he got hit. In Jordan's Best games he still missed shots

Nah that ain't Nomad.
The boy Nay Nimley byke. Well damn...it's been some years.

Don't tell these new Ns.
I went to prison and NT got soft.
These guys NEVER owned a cassette.
don't know what hi-speed dubbing is.
never owned a physical copy of the actual Purple Tape.
& now all of a sudden they have some authority in hip hop?
I got regrets older than these guys.
To homie that mentioned PE, without using Wiki, where were YOU when the album "Fight To Power" appeared on at, when it dropped?
If you gotta do internet searches YOU'RE simply takin someone else's opinion on a body of work and basing your own sense of importance on someone else's critique of art. That's pretty corny.
If you an OG, then pardon me.
There's more or less an element of everything it took to create hip hop on this album.
I don't really care how kids take my opinion. I've seen this done several times in hip hop. I'm right and history will be on my side. It's gonna be alotta corny guys that end up lovin this album over time.
I remember people hating It Was Written (anyone that's an NT OG knows my feelings on that)
People didn't like Makaveli when it came out.
It's part of hip hops progression.
it was people on NT that said J Cole would NEVER come out.
There's always gonna be somebody that's extremely wrong about art. I've seen it millions of times.
I traded my Inspectah Deck solo album for Black On Both Sides. Shout out to my son Andre for lettin me RIP him off 16 years ago.lol.
I was at the album signing and that poor excuse for a media company VICE was there and those Culture Vultures went past hundreds of Ns to ask a white kid his opinion on one of the BLACKEST recordings in recent history. That's offensive. If white people like the album great, then it's doin what it was intended to an extent. But let's be 100% honest and clear. This album was MADE for black people and it takes me back to the day when that could said about the majority of hip hop.
I miss that.
This album is a testament to OUR struggle. We don't need the validation of others and the album speaks on that for 78 mins. It also applies to you internet dweebs.
