unique album tbh, way ahead of time with A1 aesthetic, production, melodies, etc

Not an album but Rakim really caught lightning in a bottle when he made this

winter arc album fr

100% this

kinda agree but idk because he made sandman in 2021 and it sounds just like a song from that era

And then they tried to replicate it again with 21st Century Breakdown and that s*** wasn't even 1/10th as good as AI :vlosereave: a bloated, overproduced dumpster fire of an album with some of Bliie's worst written lyrics until the Uno, Dos, Tres trilogy

Yep one of my least favs by them lol

classic, they paved the way with this album

Idk if you listened to this that came out a few months ago but it’s fire. It’s an early version of homecoming.

No matter how many "this is insert artist yeezus"

It can't be replicated

LP1 makes me feel things that I rarely get from music anymore

the way the songs build up & crescendo is something that works so well with the listening experience
timeless music

Yeah I'm already familiar with the AI demos

I'll listen to it tomorrow

GODDAMN HOW REAL IS THIS

Prince - Sign 'o the Times

Nas - Illmatic

Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Michael Jackson - Thriller

2Pac - The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory

Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly

good album but cmon its a harlem mf stealing htown sound

Literally 100s of tapes on bandcamp around this time just like it, rocky was just prettier than the rest

Drop some of them
