Country Grammar and Nellyville had a bigger impact on music than rtd/lad.

Kanye west...easily
Arguably... Lupe, cube, jigga, dre, snoop -
I already said Ice Cube, why is there further discussion!
-
The Only One I Can Think Of Is Ice Cube....Life After Death Was Full OF Filler..
-
OUTKAST..
-
50 - POTD and GRODT. everyone always says POTD is his best album, and most people agree GRODT is classic.. so, why not?
also, no one mentioned Mobb Deep?
if you dont count Juvenile Hell. then its The Infamous and Hell on Earth. -
and another one
-
Prince
jk -
I can think of none although there are certainly a lot of contenders.
-
Outkast is right up there with Nas and Ghost, Southernplaylasticcadillacmuzik is slept on as far as their catalog goes
-
Artists with at least one classic debut and good follow up album
A Tribe Called Quest
Ice Cube
Mobb Deep (not counting juvenile hell)
Nas
Notorious B.I.G
DMX
Redman
Wu Tang
Ghostface Killah

36 chambers + Forever

southernplayalisticadillacmuzic + atliens
lord willing + hell hath no fury
(i know yall gonna hate but personal faves)
attack of the attacking things + this week
food & liquor + the cool
honorable mention... i wanted to include mf doom but my man had too many aliases for me to construct an approach as to what should be considered doom vs victor vs geedorah
*bows and beholds something greater than myself*
Jean Grae is the female GOAT hands down on a creative level. Both them albums are tough. And Jeanius? Fuuuuuuuck...
DOOM's Operation Doomsday and MM... FOOD are classics to me, if you count consecutive albums as DOOM. Not a fan of the Geedorah side (too many subpar features) and Vik's albums were dope, but the production was meh. DOOM is best on his own ? , and of course Madlib's. -
Yall can name people with back to back freshman and sophomore albums that are classic as much as you want. Doesn't mean they're better than Nasir's. The closest one is probably Ice Cube. But the quality on Illmatic and It Was Written is unmatched.
-
Ghostface, Rakim, BDK and MC Eiht?

Yes, I thought people will call me crazy for that.
Ice Cube AS WELL.
-
Well yea, Rakim also came to mind. I mean yea they're on the all time great list in that category but Nas would be number 1.
