Oh, you're a G-Unit Soldier, aren't?
GRODT is top 5 album of the last decade, and that's what I'm only giving it.

i mean, how was 50 innovating with that album?
what did he bring to the table as far as creativity?
his lyrics were average.

How is BP not close? BP's production >> GRODT's production. And Girls, Girls, Girls and Breathe Easy are better than any song from GRODT imo.
Lol @ the bolded. -
Not the best, but its still a classic imo

That's exactly how I felt when I saw this. First off, it's only been 12 years since the new millennium started so its a little early to be declaring an album the best already.
Second, 50 of all people having the best? Come on, that was primarily for the hype and production that carried him to success. How many people can recite an entire lyrics besides the hook from and of his songs from GRODT? Not many because none of his stuff is memorable.
Now I'm not gonna deny that it was definitely a worthy album to bump to when it dropped. Lets not act like he has memorable verses that we still remember into today.

Didn't even have to repeat a single artist...even though we know Nas, Jay and Ye have a few albums that are better -
9 years later and this ? still bangs harder than anything else your favorite mc has released. no matter how much you might hate him, noone can deny this album caused pandemonium when it came out. im sitting here tryna think of one album since 2000 that is at least on equal footing with GRODT, and I can't think of one. It was that good. it had everything. countless classic songs, replay value, dope production, and a huge impact. i'm glad we all agree that this was hip hop's last true classic album
? yourself today not tomorrow!

And almost all of them and a bunch of other people I know could recite to you nearly word for word more than 1 track off that album.
That stuff was very memorable.

It's an enjoyable album, there are others that should be up there too, IMO:
-
The album is a classic.

Never got the 50 Cent hype...In school when everyone was goin' mad...I proper didn't think it was good...bangin' beats...catchy hooks...average as ? lyrics...
-
buncha albums came out this and last year that ? all over it

There aren't many (if any) albums that can match it for hype...but in terms of quality? no way

thats your opinion to me and alot of other people its a classic. i agree with the hype but the impact it had also on hiphop. every song couldve been a single just cuz of the popularity and play they had. even the hard songs were being played on the radio. Many Men, HIgh all the time, and what up gangsta. i didnt like ? until iheard the remix with banks and buck. i used to get hype to see if they would play the video with buck and banks. -
Nobody is ever gonna agree on an album being classic. And the replay value thing is way too subjective. It just depends on the person.
What we do know is that for the most part people thought it was good to great it sold a ? load of records and had big successful singles and it started a G-unit era.
