A lot of ppl adore DAMN and if someone told me it was his best work, it would be hard to debate it. It maybe didn’t move the needle culturally as hard as GKMC did but what a follow up.

It was really hard to pick for Gang Starr. I actually like Moment of Truth a little more than Hard To Earn… but Hard To Earn had two of their biggest singles ever and I have a lot of nostalgia attached to it so I dunno.

Outkast, Tribe, De La and Kendrick all have multiple *The* Albums. Whatever you pick is a fun little personality test.

GKMC is the one that solidified him for sure. DAMN made him a monument.
*The* De La album for me is Stakes Is High. That’s why I put Buhloone Mindstate in my list.

Funny how for Kendrick you could also technically put To Pimp A Butterfly in that slot bc DAMN was nuclear too.
ATLiens a stellar choice.

You can hear the advancement from Brown Sugar to Voodoo. But you don’t get Voodoo without Brown Sugar to begin with. It’s like he added a 10-car garage to the mansion.

You’re saying Brown Sugar might not count bc it was such a gamechanger in itself that it ushered in yet another gamechanger?

I know there’s way more pressing issues going on in the world but you can’t even get distracted temporarily by a sport you love bc that in itself reminds you that multibillion corporations are still trying to scrape every last dollar they can and the consumer takes the L. It bothers me so much.

If the sub didn’t split, you must acquit!
Defense begins, “This case, ladies and gentlemen, is about a sandwich. A sandwich that according to Agent Lairmore somehow both exploded on his chest in a spray of mustard and onions but also landed intact on the ground still in its Subway wrapper.”
