it is music, not poetry, as you said before. if it were spoken word poetry then this would be a classic album, but it wasn't. it was a hip hop album. hip hop music is about both the music and the lyrics. if both aren't on point then the album isn't going to be a classic. sure, it may be good, but classic? no. i liked the album too, but it is far from a classic by any standards. it may be a classic in your eyes and that is fine because that is your opinion, but overall the album just isn't classic. the classics/borderline classics that came out this year, by unanimous consent, are as follows:
-Invincible - Shapeshifters
-Elzhi - The Preface
-EMC - The Show
-The Roots - Rising Down
-Metaform - Standing on the Shoulders of Giants
-Clutchy Hopkins - Walking Backwards
-Madvillain - Madvillainy 2: The Remix
-Q-Tip - The Renaissance
and maybe a few others. those are the ones that i've heard of being called classics that came out this year.

Yea I feel were u coming....the album aint a classic by traditional means but fuck it I think its one but LMAO
Speakin of Classics.........one sec...........look in the general section in a lil bit

That's how I feel too.

That's why I actually think "HHID" is better. The production is more coheisive on there than "Untitled" IMO.

Only god can judge me.

agreed. only grief i had is the concept behind HHID, as in his actual spitting, weren't as cohesive. "Untitled" was completely on topic all the way through, the beats just sucked.
