Its subjective. Its all in how you look at things.

I agree with Food & Liquor not GKMC

Outside of "College Dropout" it seems these two albums have gotten the most praise for Classic status. "Food and Liquor" is way closer than "GKMC" cause it's been 7 years. The only other album impact wise and quality wise would be "The Documentary" as far as Classic status from this generation for what it did for West Coast Hip Hop. -

I don't listen to Game at all but The Documentary is Classic in terms of Reviving the West Coast. But Food & Liqour is more of a Reasonable Doubt Classic didn't make too much of a Splash in terms of Impact but when it's looked back on would be considered Classic and GKMC had that Illmatic type response where it was recognized soon after dropping.
*Disclaimer for the Super Stans. I'm not saying either album is on that level but the type of response it received.

Z-Ro hasn't made anything decent in like 7 years, but that's a different subject.
Yall old ? pick on the younger generation because you're all stuck in the past.
That era is never coming back bruh.
It's over.

Classic thing is all subjective anyway, it's been a few classic songs/mixtapes/albums imo

-
Us old ? feelings are hurt but truth is truth. None of that old ? is coming back the past is the past we need to stop living in it & stop ? .

The funny thing is that it don't matter how good Jay Elec's album will be because he can't qualify as younger generation when he's a 40 year old man and a 10 year vet in the game.

I'm 30 years old. I grew up in 1990's west coast rap. ? don't understand the quality that hip hop needs to continue striving. Solo albums were just that, solo albums. Yea a few songs were features but features were at a minimum. An artist's album was a testament to his music. Nowadays there is no such thing as a solo album. Nowadays flooding the market with mixtapes diminishes the anticipation and quality of an album. Nowadays hip hop is full of gossip and being overly friendly with each other. The competition level is gone. Diss tracks used to be one of the main reasons fans looked forward to an album. ? used to be creative and original. Now everyone is a ? Damn carbon copy.

i think the importance of having minimal features or not is a bit overrated

I'm still waiting on the day for somebody to truly define what a classic album is because it seems like the definition of a classic album changes depending on what album your talking about when it comes to some of yall.

The Chronic was meant to be a showcase of Deathrow's talent, not a Dr Dre solo album

The 25 and younger crew be bumpin the West Coast Classics channel on GTAV when the DJ dissin yalls generation or nah?
-
cuz its about mixtapes and punchlines and gimmicks as opposed to albums, concepts and authenticity. ? be too worried about whats selling than what really moves them. older artists just went all the way in doing them and people caught up or passed by. thats just an indicator of the world.. a lot done changed in the past couple decades. people are different and of lesser quality IN GENERAL so of course ther artist class will reflect society at large... on another not.. more time got to pass to honestly ascertain what is classic or not out of this newer stuff...,its an overused and misused term like GOAT and "lost"
