    "everyone" did not forget about the album. it's going to be a top five rap album in nearly every critics' poll worth reading. people have also been talking about it/putting it on shortlists all year, so no, what you're saying is not true lol

    It was one of them albums that you had to respect no matter if you enjoyed it or not

    the album is that good that it was obviously number 1. Quality wise, nothing came close, nothing at all.

    I listened to ti yesterday for the first time in months and gotta admit, easily one of the best albums ever heard

    this alone makes gkmc sounds like an amateur album

    When has there been the best of something that hasn't made some sort of impact? At least on a small scale...

    good question:

    the second Shyne Coldchain is actually pretty reminiscent of it. vince and earl are friends, so i could see earl taking inspiration from here:

    this year's billy woods record doesn't share a lot in the way of subject matter or imagery, but is also about death and the atmosphere is very similar:

    it was a good album, like 8/10 can't compare to a 10/10 like tpab of course (more like a 9.6/10)

    :notbad: Your right on that part. We'll see. Earl had a good album, I liked it...I just don't remember it. I think I'll go listen to it again.

    Rodeo had a huge impact where I live. Travis gets played regularly in any sort of social situation and even top 40 mom's enjoy Antidote. I'm saying an album personally effecting your emotions isn't a good measure of an albums worth.

    Enjoyment is an emotion. And "Antidote" is just a great song by itself...with or without Rodeo.

    Nah it's a lot closer than that tbh

    It's not unreasonable to place IDLSIDGO over TPAB and vice versa

    Great songs with a pop influence that sound unique do well... Look at The Weeknd.
