Yeah, it feels like in almost every classic review they just argue whether it's a classic or not for the majority of the video. It gets kind of annoying.

He’s stated before that it’s Wayne at some of his best lyrically and it’s super creative. I was hoping it won as well as I would love to hear them talk about it.

Gotta choose blackstar!

Goddammit, I hoped geto boys would get more votes, everyone is going for wayne lol

I've been wanting black star for a while now lol but Damn Wayne is taking it. Also how the fuck is pac so low?

Anonymous

When y’all place the vote try and get someone the crew hasn’t talked about yet. All the Wayne votes are kinda sad and they just did a PAC review on ADD’s channel not too long ago. Just sayin..

I'd love to hear yall discuss that dilla

Are we really gonna waste this month on Wayne

As much as I like TC3, Me Against the World needs to happen. So many things about that album make it a classic

The Carter 2 &gt; The Carter 3, especially for smokers. I used to be a big Wayne fan.

Black Star. Mos and Talib don't get talked about enough.

You guys need to stop hating on ‘08 Wayne he deserves a review

I was about to comment how Tha Carter 3 isn't even a classic and The of course it's winning smh

Anonymous

I hate classic reviews of albums that dropped after 2000.

The Carter 3 hasn't even been out ten years and y'all want to call it a classic? Hip hop fans have no patience. Then again, I guess that should have been apparent when MBDTF won the poll SEVEN years after it came out.

Anonymous

I feel like Tha Carter 3 is only seen as a classic because people don't wanna say Wayne didn't have a classic. He for sure had an era where he was the biggest artist in the game and had dope verses on everyone tracks but he never put out anything close to a masterpiece IMO.

I don't care, I'm voting for Beastie Boys every time.

I have voted for Black Star like 5 times now and it doggedly refuses to win.

Anonymous

Ik dilla ain't gonna win but I really hope one day they get to one of his projects one day. Dilla embodied hip hop and that's apparent in all of his production especially on the slum village albums and donuts. Dilla, Elliott smith, and Kurt cobain are my favourite artists of all time 🤘🏿

Awh come on guys only 15% for J Dilla????

Fingers crossed J Dilla wins 😭

Did Dilla just for my boy Beezy. Looking out for you B! I know it's been a cold couple months in the D recently

Blackstar people come on

I can understand if the album just came out to hold judgement if it’s a classic or not. But if it’s been years and the sound of landscape of the music is different, I don’t see the issue with looking back and saying if the album is classic or not. There’s not set time requirements (besides it not being immediately).

Had to go with Pac, but wouldn't be mad if BlackStar was picked

pauls boutique would be amazing, love that album!!

They'll most likely review Carter 3 for All Def Music when the 10 year anniversary comes around this year, #VoteBlackStar

I only really want carter3 to win because I need to hear in depth why myke loves it so much. Otherwise me against the world would’ve been my choice

PLEASE CARTER III! Pre-2009 Lil Wayne is amazing. And post 2017 is good too.

Anonymous

I think too many people in this group HAVEN'T heard Blackstar. Go check the album out!!!

Anonymous

IMO Carter 3 is the most overrated classic AOTY. Not saying it ain't classic, but I don't think it's a great project. Carter 2 all day!

Anonymous

Carter 3? Seriously people? -_- Changed my vote from MATW to Black Star, coz fuck TC3.

Anonymous

We need black star. It's been nominated about 6 times and its always second or third. Probably has more total votes than any other nomination. And it's one of the last true NY classics

Anonymous

Oh shit black star making a comeback. Let’s start off the year right with an amazing album.

Geto Boys all day

CARTER 3 - Legendary album with much story and hype building up to it. One of the few albums I can play start to finish every day of the week. Mr Carter, A Milli, Dr Carter, Shoot Me Down, Mrs Officer, Comfortable.... so many well-made complete songs

Anonymous

I’m in the apparent minority but I’d love to see a Donuts review someday, if only just for the novelty of DEHH reviewing an album with no emcee.

Anonymous

Can we do a separate poll for people over 30? It's basically gotten to the point that any rapper or rap group from the 80s or early 90s has no chance because of the average voter's age. Geto Boys getting blown out by Wayne is a fucking disgrace.

Anonymous

You should just do some of these where Ken gets to pick with no vote. There are too many young viewers and it really skews these polls towards less deserving albums just because they’re newer or more popular.

Anonymous

I agree, Adam. Can you make this happen Rod? I mean, otherwise, some albums have no chance of winning. Maybe make a separate category that doesn't require polling.

Where is the gangstarr nominations?

Right!!! What other rap artist dropped four classics in a row

Anonymous

Let's be honest here if they review the Black Star album it's not going to be so entertaining. They're all going to praise it and say it was a dope album, which it was. The Carter 3 was a hit or miss with a lot of people. I know these guys liked the album. But I want to know what was their first initial reaction listening to the album. What tracks did they like or truly despised?Do they consider it a classic? It was the hottest album of the late 00s. The Carter 3 review will open up a better and more interesting discussion imo.

Anonymous

Carter 1-3 are classics. That was when Wayne was hungry.

Anonymous

Come on Blackstar you are almost there! J Dilla would have been my second choice, but we have put up Blackstar for the last 6 months, it is about time it wins.

Anonymous

I would love to see Donuts get a review. However Blackstar needs to win right now.

Anonymous

Every month the same situation I'm sick of it what your hip hop start in the 2006 ?

Anonymous

Just consider it a tie and do both albums. I think we can all be okay with that. They are neck and neck enough to do that

Anonymous

There has only been like 1 classic review from the 00s relax. The rest have been from the 90s. Would you rather hear feefo say the same shit in every 90s classic review?

Anonymous

There has more than one and I don't care what feefo going to say My problem is that every time is the same shit the most famous rapper get the votes

Consistency pays off. I’m looking forward to seeing that. I hope you enjoy homie

BLACK STAR review is finally happenin

Daniel Tribble

Wooo!! My bro who kept nominating Black Star, will you put Black On Both Sides up for nomination next?

BlueZones

Congrats guys!

BlueZones

Let’s try to get some older shit in, I’d love to hear everybody’s response on the “brickwork” albums. Has Paid in Full or EPMD ever been nominated?

Anonymous

I am planning on nominating Paid In Full next month

Anonymous

I am throwing up Paid In Full next month for my nom.

Anonymous

Just a few suggestions, guys: When you talk about these classic albums, could you please state your favourite tracks in the album and what personally makes the album stand out to you: content, lyrics, production, and highlight/quote them? I am saying this because I felt that I wanted to know more about these in your Food and Liquor review. You guys do a great job contextualizing the impact of the album, I feel the above suggestions could help further add to the videos. Thank you for reading, and keep up the good work!

I listened to Black Star after this comment section wanting it so bad (I was gonna check it out regardless that was just the main push) and I loved it.

Anonymous

Been nominating the foundational albums. They get max 5% of the vote. Very frustrating.

Anonymous

Perhaps they should alternate nomination qualifications. Go back and forth between millenniums on every second poll.

Can I suggest "Paid In Full"?

can somebody get the miseducation of lauryn hill on this thing

Don't worry I got you...I'm going to nominate Black On Both Sides...but if Paid in Full wins next month I wouldn't be mad
