2:12 I don’t think ski is missing the ability to make memorable or cohesive albums, he just hasn’t dropped enough music in general to seriously put himself in conversations. And I understand the reasons why, he’s one of my favorites out rn but that’s what it is.

[@Big-cc3nn]

what r the reasons

[@nbabackcourtmedia]

@@Big-cc3nn his two best friends passing away in a short span surely caused him a lot of mental strain and emotional distress

[@lukel.6582]

well, hes got an album coming out this very month, so well have to see if he can keep up after 5+ years of absence

[@sultan788]

His personality played a big part in his music, which is now authentically gone and people feel that it's missing He doesn't have X to bounce off in the studios to either put him in an enjoyable space to make music or artistically push him Unfortunately, Ski is forever gonna be like this. He was a duo with X way too young in his career so it's legit a part of his identity as an artist. If they became a duo after some time they established themselves as solo artists then Ski would recover well and be fine, but that didn't happen Ski is just going to remain an underground artist with decent quality unless he gets co-signed/platformed by a huge artist consistently (Like what Timbaland did to Timberlake or Dre to Eminem)

As a huge yeat fan. I love all his albums, but 2093 is his best piece of work, it’s forward thinking and is gonna change music foreve. even when you listen to the subject matter of what he’s talking about, it’s nothing like anybody else right now. No one is even close

[@maxo88888]

Well deserved! The peppa pig album changed the whole rap game. Still come back to this album. So much bangers 🔥

[@fourseasons4105]

That Drake take is super valid, yeah those later albums have their great moments but as a full experience they mostly feel like filler and background ambience and to me a 6/10 is an album that's at least half good, a barrier that none of Drake's albums post 2016 meet

[@tetchra4549]

2093 is actually so slept on the production is insane but works let it grow

[@achievmntstudios]

“Some Rap Songs” by Earl sweatshirt is one of THEE best rap albums ever. Has to be one of the best in the past decade at least. Think about the originality in such a saturated time period it released, think about the abstract and artistic sound scape stylistic approach on production- representing the trenches of earls mind and soul. Think about the message and structure defined throughout the project. The bars and rhyme scheme and patterns. It’s aging like fine wine. Because it is fine wine of the rap industry. It’s an acquired taste. It’s sharp and bold and flavorful. It’s the equivalent to the saying “beauty is in the eye of the beholder”

[@jesuspernia8031]

I still prefer IDLSIDGO It might be nostolgia though because of how great I remembered 2015

To many people hating on DaBaby, like I get it he isnt the best rapper ever, but he isnst as bad as everybody says.

[@jesuspernia8031]

Well when he first started out he was alright. The problem is he NEVER changes up how he raps. Same flow every single time. And I’m not even gonna lie at first when he hit the scene, it was a good sounding flow. It sounded like he was confident and rapped effortlessly. But after the same thing over and over again it just became tiring.

MF DOOM's discography (including Metal Fingers and other personas) washes out the entire discographies of Travis Scott, Migos, Kanye West, J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Pusha T, & Nicki Minaj. (I love all of these artists, but DOOM got them all beat lyrically & album conceptually.)

Huge Travis Scott fan and 2093 was my introduction to Yeat. Nothing Travis has sounds like 2093. The albums definitely bloated but the good songs are so good. I'm also definitely not listening to him for lyric quality but I think you're doing yourself a disservice having genius up on first listen. Shit sounds exactly like the album cover imo

[@itsactuallytony5699]

Michael Jackson is the goat of all genres

[@jayrodriguez2408]

I’m not saying Drake has dropped a classic since Views or More Life but it’s just no way ppl listen to the projects since then and say those are bad albums. Scorpion, DLDT, and Her Loss are all quality projects in my opinion & rating them under a 6 is insane to me personally. I could also say Kanye hasn’t dropped a classic since The Life of Pablo & Kendrick’s recent album won’t be one either but ppl would act like I’m saying something outlandish.

My reaction to each take: Drake hasn’t dropped an album above a 6/10 since More Life: Strongly disagree. The worst Drake albums are exactly 6/10, and they’re Her Loss and For All the Dogs. Scorpion and Dark Lane Demo Tapes are 9+ and Honestly, Nevermind is an 8. The Fall-Off will be disappointing: I agree but I think it will still be great. Donda would be considered a classic with certain changes: Disagree. Eminem can’t evolve musically: Disagree, but he hasn’t in recent years.
