MMLP2 General Discussion

[Snakebeast]

I agree with whoever said that it doesn't need to be a classic, as classic is a word primarily used to convince people of the quality of something you like.
I like the album a lot. I don't see that ever changing, regardless of what people think/say.

I don't think anyone is arguing about whether or not it's good.

Why does KTT trash this album tho ?
They seem to trash it for no reason

[PAINKILLƎR]

Hov got 3 classics, Em got 3 classics

[Him Shadow]

I said it's a classic for me, I ment I fuckin' love it and I will 4eva yo but it won't ever be consider by people as a classic. Em has only one undeniable classic album - MMLP.

The Blueprint definitely changed hip-hop…it created Just Blaze and Kanye West and just completely changed how albums were produced after it.

and Jigga that Nigga is one of the best tracks smh jay goes off

What's a KTT?

[classthe_king]

idk, classic is sort of an ambiguous word like underrated/overrated that doesn't really mean anything. But I think that influence does play a part…I think Sadistik's albums are two of the greatest albums ever but I don't think they're classics.

I definitely think quality is big factor, it has to stand above most everything else released in like a 2-3 year interval. I think it has to be new or different in some way, it has to bring something to hip-hop that it's never seen before.

[classthe_king]

yeah you can't tell right away but I don't think it takes as long as some people think. GKMC is definitely a classic and it's only been two years

[Jaba]

I just think its a classic because I love the album, and its a return to form. It has the classic vibe and feel. The caliber of songs on it makes it a classic as well.And to those saying he is doing the same as other rappers today, your completely retarded and you need to stfu.

Tbh, I think most people will think of it as a classic in a few years, BUT by people I mean Eminem fans. The general public there is only one classic and that is MMLP.

I only played the album for like a month after release and I dont really feel any urge to listen to it anymore, I like the album but to me its not that special

[EminemBase]

I think MMLP2 will be a classic. People say its not, but it will be in like 8 to 10 years. Picture listening to Rap God or Groundhog Day in 10 years.

Individual songs from it are pure classic.

But as a whole album? As a consistent effect? Nahh.

You can't have a classic which has as much of a paradox of ''Rap God'' and ''The Monster'' on the same album. It's just too much of a sonic and conceptual compromise. Also, shame on fucking Em for putting hooks and sounds like that anywhere near a sequel to fucking MMLP. Jesus, it's easy to forget how dark and genius the album is and to take for granted what a bat shit insane and shitty move that was for Em of all people to make.

With THIS album. Dam Em.

I'm not knocking it, the track itself is dope... it's just the one track that feels a bit out of place due to the production.

I love the production, and Jay-Z's flow is so tight that it makes the lyrics sound better than they do. I've had the Blueprint in my car for a few weeks and that song is always my favorite to come on.

"Gnarly dude, I puff Bob Marley dude all day like Rastafari's do"

idk why but that part just sounds fuckin dope

[SliK]

Blueprint is my favourite Jay album I agree the whole thing just sounds great.

[shadyblogger]

Just came to say that I think TES is still dope af and that it's a classic regardless of what anyone says.

MMLP 2 I really enjoy but I really don't have an idea how people will look back on it 10 years from now. I'm sure Eminem fans will say it was amazing and great especially for that time period in Eminem's career but as far as the general public, I have no idea.

[mdemaz]

still a better love story than

i mean better album than encore
