    Definitely not, because encore would be considered a classic, and I never heard anyone say encore is a classic

    See OP, what I'm going to do, is link you to a classic and answer your question at the same time.

    The truth is it depends on who the demographic and audience is

    If u ask a Pop music fan, general music fan, fan of commercial music they will say yes

    Ask a straight up rap fan they will hate the album and say no

    I only listen to hip hop. I don't listen to anything else. I do not hate Recovery. In fact, out of his last 3 albums I without a doubt listened to the Recovery album as a whole in its entirety more than Relapse or MMLP2.

    But i do not think Recovery is a classic. Not even close. To me that's crazy talk.

    I hope his next album opens with a song as high energy as cold wind blows
