It's not really fair with Radiohead, cuz they've basically been dropping more-than-quality shit ever since they removed the stink of Pablo Honey

Interesting. I'm going to assume you don't mean Radioactive because I think the consensus on that is that he caved to commercial demands and that it was overall underwhelming.

So you think Trunk Muzik Returns is better than the original Trunk Muzik and Arena Rap then?

You have to look at how he's steadily improved up to this point. Piss'n in a Barrel of Bee'z, Slick E. Bobby, and Stereo particularly father behind what he's doing now. Arena Rap and Trunk Muzik are good, but Trunk Muzik Returns is better (in my opinion) than either one. He's still improving even though he's not a really young artist, which is great.

How about Ghostface? When you consider that he had been around since 93 and Supreme Clientele (arguably his best album) dropped in 00'

Not to mention that he's been on point with every release these last few years.

Ghostface crossed my mind, I wasn't gonna list supreme clientele since it's only his second album but he's been rapping since 93 by than.

Also Biggie and Pac deserve a mention eve n though the former only had 2 albums his growth as an mc from R2D to LAD is too huge to ignore.

Wayne wasn't the most skilled rapper but he was easily one of the most talented artists for his young age tbh Image
