Great read from Jayson Buford, who's opinion I think quite highly of, and a great interview. But I was very interested to see him saying this in the intro:

"Enter last month’s Mach-Hommy album, Pray for Haiti. Simply put, it is the best rap album to drop since Young Thug’s Barter 6."

Not sure I agree with dude on this one.... Surely there's gotta be more classics that fall into that same category/tier that have dropped in the interim?

A few possible contender just off the top of my head:

Die Lit / WLR
Culture
Still Brazy
Igor / Flower Boy
The Sun's Tirade
DS2
Kids See Ghosts
Daytona
Meet the Woo
Tana Talk 3
ZUU
d--- / TPAB
Rodeo
Alfredo

Do none of these (or any others) qualify as same level hip hop classics? Or was he just being hyperbolic? Thoughts?

agreed with all of these! There's no way at least a handful of these don't fall into the same all-time category imo.

I think pray for Haiti is an amazing project, buts its being over hyped by certain people imo. Still a future classic.

From king to a god
Supreme Blientel
WWCD
Plugs i met
Run the jewels 4 peat

Astroworld
The Never Story
DWTW
Bucketlist Project / Care for Me

Some I can think of that I don't think have been mentioned.

When we are all miserable old men we will be calling most of these classics and it will be our turn to s--- on the younger generations.
