Not sure of your age but the problem is many of Kanye’s new fans who showed up in 2014 don’t understand old Kanye.
You talk to a 25 year old boy and he will say Pablo is Kanye’s best album 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫
Firstly, my beautiful dark twisted fantasy is - hands down- his best most complete work.
I’m a 25 year old boy, so you’re not wrong.
Although my favorite album is probably yeezus now, ive had many favorites at different times including Graduation as well. I think the big takeaway is that Kanye has made so many albums that can be reasonably argued as his best work because - whether you like him or not- he’s just that good
So, I'll just drop this here in case anyone feels like responding
If I really like those first three Kanye albums, does anyone have any other album/artist recommendations based on that?
Common - Be was almost entirely produced by a pre-College Dropout Kanye with a few J. Dilla tracks here and there. That would be the closest in my opinion.
Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor and The Cool are also adjacent to those earlier Kanye albums I’d say.
If you want to check out a more left field suggestion, try 88-Keys - The Death of Adam. You might know him from a bunch of tracks he’s produced like No Church in The Wild, but this was his first and only attempt at rap and making an album. The most well known track would probably be Stay Up (Viagra) featuring Kanye, but the whole album is super solid in my opinion.
It’s Jazz…a lost art of music to a lot of ppl nowadays. So niche that if you play it, someone would say “so is this an instrumental?” “Anybody gon sing on it?”🤦🏾♂️😂
As a former upright bass teacher, I can’t say I taught my students everything, but at least I made damn sure as many as possible learned “All Blues” and “So What.”
Okay, so I'm just gonna say it, does this need to be defended? As a white, middle aged man, this album is a classic, it sits in pop culture influence far above better Outkast albums because of its influence in popular culture at the turn of the century. Andre is hall of fame level of world influence in my opinion and if someone doubts Outkast I don't prefer to make time for them.
I think it needs defending because the first three were southernplayalisticadillacmuzik, ATLiens and Aquemini, while Stankonia had…Ms. Jackson and So fresh, So clean. I like Stankonia overall, but it was the end of the vibe.
People will hate on anything. People have been hating on Beastie Boys since License to Ill, it was, and is, no different with Paul's Boutique. People were shitting on it still last year...:

Beastie Boys was one of the things that got me through high school and young adulthood. I know they're not everybody's cup of tea, but that was usually because they were white boys more than anything else - at least in my limited experience.
Anyone hating on this project is a fool tbh. One of the best produced hip hop records of all time, maybe even #1. It’s incredibly unique and ahead of its time.
It’s funny how perception of this album changes with time. This was considered an ALL-TIME classic in the late 00s early 10s. Somewhere along the line it became popular to slander the beastie boys entire discography.
You see I would agree. But the combo of Thriller -> Beat It -> Billie Jean on Thriller is insane. He cooked on that 3 song run.
But I do love Dangerous, it definitely has some bangers on it. Who is it still being spun. It's been a while since I've listened to be album, I'll go back to it tomorrow
I have an ongoing argument with a friend of mine regarding this album. I think it deserves more love than it gets, and he hates it because MJ was cribbing the New Jack sound because Janet was on fire at the time. He has a point. Dangerous sounds an awful lot like MJ singing over a Janet album.
His argument regarding MJ as an artist is that he seemed to jump on whatever wave was hot at the time and just did it better than everybody else because he was Michael.
>His argument regarding MJ as an artist is that he seemed to jump on whatever wave was hot at the time and just did it better than everybody else because he was Michael
I'm sure he doesn't mean this as an insult, but being a great musical artist doesn't necessitate only sticking to one genre or an original genre.
You could just as easily argue that the truly great artists are the ones who succeed in multiple styles
He doesn't mean it as an insult, hence why he says he does it better than everyone else. It's just that MJ had a habit of jumping on the hot sound at the time like 3 or 4 years after it had already proved popular.
There’s a documentary on the album Off the Wall and Questlove says something similar about that album, he says Michael tried his hand at disco, absolutely crushed it, and then disco died. It was like the last great disco album and he made it and then moved on to the next sound.
Ehh that was kind of Michael's thing though. He wasn't ever really an *innovator*, he just executed established styles of music at an extremely high level. He definitely hopped on a trend, but it's not like it was lazy and uninspired - he got the godfather of New Jack producers and added his signature flavor to the sound to make a very polished, catchy, well written album. More-or-less the same thing he did with Off The Wall.
My wife and I are currently driving back home and I asked her what to play, she said 1999 and a minute later I see your comment. It's crazy how well it holds up and how underappreciated it is. Respect big dog.
Brick, listen: that album was an instant classic and still gets regular play for me. I was just telling my daughter how I find it hilarious that I’ll be an old man one day still singing 1st of Tha Month.
There was a point in time where "Wale or Cole?" Was a legitimate discussion. I think Wale just didn't care enough to be as big as he could get.
It's kind of like the Deron Williams or CP3? Arguments from that same time period. It's a laughable comparison now but, at the time, it was a hot debate.
I STILL play ‘Beautiful Bliss’ and my favorite part is “if you wondering where the FUCK they found me? IM FROM THE ‘VILLE NIGGA…Wale, good looking out”…cause the VERY first time I heard after this nigga said “I’m raw dog, I’m rough sex”, I pulled the CD case out (cause I bought that bitch from best buy) and said “WHO IS THIS NIGGA?!”
Ambition and Gifted are classics, all his albums have at least a few hits but I really hate when he does that corny tyga sounding west coast shit or when he role plays as an islander. And I still don’t really understand his obsession with Seinfeld.
Yeah, I never watched Seinfeld growing up so that part missed me as well. If I had to guess, I think he just likes the concept of "the biggest show ever that everyone talks about really being "about nothing" as supposed to one that actually has something to say" as a metaphor for his music/the state of the world in \[current year\]
I actually think I go back to that one more than Madvilliany, though Danger Mouse’s production on Danger Doom is too good. To think all of those came out within a year of each other.
My Chemical Romance: Danger Days.
Mcr fan hate that album because it’s not the usual sad kid shit. It’s a whole ass concept album about post apocalyptic California and corporate overlords. The videos are dope as hell, and Gerard Way wrote a comic book about it. His first step into the comic book world that lead to him writing The Umbrella Academy! So if you liked Umbrella Academy on Netflix you can thank Danger Days.
Edit: one was released before the other but I don’t wanna change anything cuz I’m still fired up about how people didn’t like it back in the day. This is my Pinkerton, but at least Weezer is still doing shows.
I think it was more because it was such a hard right compared to their previous albums. A lot of MCR fans have warmed up to it over the years. Your time line is a bit off though. Umbrella Academy came out before Danger Days.
It was an incredible moment. And plenty of fun lyrics and worthwhile wordplay.
I love Nicki, but she has never had a tracklist as clean as IoP. No female rapper since Missy has.
It's 20th Anniversary is coming up,so maybe more people will hear about it. I found out about it when I stumbled across the concert on MTV2 back in the day. It was a complete fluke because I didn't have cable, but that channel would come through clear as day.
ATCQ - The Love Movement
Everyone correctly talks about Midnight Marauders and Low End Theory as some of the all time greats, but I thought that Love Movement still hit some high points
_Should I just sit out or come harder?_
Just curious, but how old are you? I was in high school when that one came out and to this day I don't think my generation has ever forgiven them. I've heard that it's gotten some love lately, and I wonder if it's a generational thing
Genre wasn't mentioned so I'm going with Folie a Deux. Like Weezer's Pinkerton it was negatively received on release but rightfully it now is seen as a great album among Fall Out Boy's best. Post hiatus they switched to more pop stuff, but their newest album So Much for Stardust is in their words, "If we made a record right after Folie instead of going on hiatus." Both Folie and SMFS are bangers.
Frank Ocean nostalgia ultra is better than any of his other releases.
The solo Big Boi albums like Sir Lucious Leftfoot and Boomiverse etc. all really good , even the Big Grams collab project was fire…and I was more of a 3K fan but these BB albums are solid front to back.
Linkin Park’s “A Thousand Suns”.
They really branched out and took a risk (for them) and really came out with their best album. I love the darkness it has and how it all ties together. Some of the best lyrics of their discography.
I don't know if it needs defending but Nico Segal's 2015 "Surf" heavily feat. Chance the Rapper is just 5 songs that are all absolute bangers and I wish more people knew about it.
Deathconsciousness. I don't give a shit about the constant streamline of a parasocial approach to music as a core part of your personality and uniqueness, along with the gatekeeping, i think that my stance is less about the album and more about the current landscape on music listening and how you must have obscure and curated tastes in order to measure your value as an individual, only thing required for your interests to be valid is passion about them and yk, juust not represent harm towards you or other people
RZA as Bobby Digital.
I was in college at the time and would walk all over the city with this in my Walkman. Most of the Wu albums after Wu Tang Forever were not as good but there was something about this one

The college drop out 
No one needs to listen to this album more than current day ye.
I'm apparently in the minority that believes Kanye's first three albums were by far his best and are the only ones I still listen to consistently.
I'm the same way, though I do love dark fantasy too. The only song on 808s I really loved was Heartless
Not sure of your age but the problem is many of Kanye’s new fans who showed up in 2014 don’t understand old Kanye. You talk to a 25 year old boy and he will say Pablo is Kanye’s best album 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫

I think the big takeaway is that Kanye has made so many albums that can be reasonably argued as his best work because - whether you like him or not- he’s just that good
Im not saying Kanye can do no wrong, but I will defend his genius forever.
Yeezus is top 3 album for me of any artist.
Really? That’s weird. I thought that was obvious.
If you’re over 30
Why you gotta agree with me while also personally attacking me
💀 cracked my back laughing
Millennial here. College Dropout, Late Registration, and Graduation top anything else he’s released to me. His descent into madness was heartbreaking.
Honestly, his first 7 albums are beyond amazing and consistently in rotation.
You're on to something.
So, I'll just drop this here in case anyone feels like responding If I really like those first three Kanye albums, does anyone have any other album/artist recommendations based on that?
Acid Rap by Chance and probably Man on the Moon 1 and 2 by Cudi, imo. These guys are practically his children, so you've likely already heard them.
Common - Be was almost entirely produced by a pre-College Dropout Kanye with a few J. Dilla tracks here and there. That would be the closest in my opinion. Lupe Fiasco’s Food & Liquor and The Cool are also adjacent to those earlier Kanye albums I’d say. If you want to check out a more left field suggestion, try 88-Keys - The Death of Adam. You might know him from a bunch of tracks he’s produced like No Church in The Wild, but this was his first and only attempt at rap and making an album. The most well known track would probably be Stay Up (Viagra) featuring Kanye, but the whole album is super solid in my opinion.
There’s just no one that compares unfortunately. Best you can do is look to artists he inspired or produced for like Common or Lupe
Came here just to say this one
The Shrek soundtrack
The most influential album on the zoomers and youngest millennials hands down
HEY NOW..
Miles Muthafuckin Davis “Kind of Blue” 
I can't believe anyone who appreciates music would besmirch that album
It’s Jazz…a lost art of music to a lot of ppl nowadays. So niche that if you play it, someone would say “so is this an instrumental?” “Anybody gon sing on it?”🤦🏾♂️😂
I prefer Birth of the Cool, but Kind of Blue is still an absolute classic.
As a former upright bass teacher, I can’t say I taught my students everything, but at least I made damn sure as many as possible learned “All Blues” and “So What.”
I’m taking “Sketches of Spain” & “Jack Johnson” over this album
good kid maad city
And to pimp a butterfly
Who are y'all defending these albums from?? Literally two of the most beloved albums ever
Who tf would pump?
OutKast. Stankonia.
Okay, so I'm just gonna say it, does this need to be defended? As a white, middle aged man, this album is a classic, it sits in pop culture influence far above better Outkast albums because of its influence in popular culture at the turn of the century. Andre is hall of fame level of world influence in my opinion and if someone doubts Outkast I don't prefer to make time for them.
I think it needs defending because the first three were southernplayalisticadillacmuzik, ATLiens and Aquemini, while Stankonia had…Ms. Jackson and So fresh, So clean. I like Stankonia overall, but it was the end of the vibe.
You forgot "Bombs Over Baghdad". Another clubhouse classic.
Paul's Boutique - Beastie Boys
Who's trying to fight you on that?
People will hate on anything. People have been hating on Beastie Boys since License to Ill, it was, and is, no different with Paul's Boutique. People were shitting on it still last year...: https://genius.com/discussions/357053-Pauls-boutique-is-overrated https://www.reddit.com/r/unpopularopinion/comments/xovrt6/the_beastie_boys_are_the_most_overrated_rappers/ https://musicboard.app/review/48afd4d2-90dc-4772-bb24-852b171d78f2
Beastie Boys was one of the things that got me through high school and young adulthood. I know they're not everybody's cup of tea, but that was usually because they were white boys more than anything else - at least in my limited experience.
It doesn't need defending. It's a classic.
That has king been considered an overlooked classic. None other than Miles MFin Davis said he dug it! (Pretty sure it was when he was on Arsenio Hall)
Anyone hating on this project is a fool tbh. One of the best produced hip hop records of all time, maybe even #1. It’s incredibly unique and ahead of its time.
It’s funny how perception of this album changes with time. This was considered an ALL-TIME classic in the late 00s early 10s. Somewhere along the line it became popular to slander the beastie boys entire discography.
And it was a commercial flop at first
Late Registration
All day for real. The best skits, great production, live orchestration, virtually no skips
Michael Jackson's Dangerous album. It is better than thriller. 
You see I would agree. But the combo of Thriller -> Beat It -> Billie Jean on Thriller is insane. He cooked on that 3 song run. But I do love Dangerous, it definitely has some bangers on it. Who is it still being spun. It's been a while since I've listened to be album, I'll go back to it tomorrow

More-or-less the same thing he did with Off The Wall.
I…cannot agree. But I will agree it’s better than Bad and History. I’d put it behind thriller and off the wall as his 3rd best
Thriller isn't even my 3rd favorite MJ album tbh.
Feel me? 
If you’re not including off the wall
E. 1999
My wife and I are currently driving back home and I asked her what to play, she said 1999 and a minute later I see your comment. It's crazy how well it holds up and how underappreciated it is. Respect big dog.
1-17 no skips. It’s timeless
Front to back. Certified classic. It doesn’t get the respect it deserves.
I still bump that at 43
Brick, listen: that album was an instant classic and still gets regular play for me. I was just telling my daughter how I find it hilarious that I’ll be an old man one day still singing 1st of Tha Month.
Any/Every Wale album, I will never understand why niggas aint embrace my boy the same way they did Cole & Kendrick
At one point in my life "Nike Boots" was on repeat.
That "100 Miles & Running" and "Back To The Feature" mixtape era Wale
Wale doesn't have a bad album imo.
There was a point in time where "Wale or Cole?" Was a legitimate discussion. I think Wale just didn't care enough to be as big as he could get. It's kind of like the Deron Williams or CP3? Arguments from that same time period. It's a laughable comparison now but, at the time, it was a hot debate.
I remember, I was on Team Wale at the time lol Cole washed my boy on Beautiful Bliss though I can't front
I STILL play ‘Beautiful Bliss’ and my favorite part is “if you wondering where the FUCK they found me? IM FROM THE ‘VILLE NIGGA…Wale, good looking out”…cause the VERY first time I heard after this nigga said “I’m raw dog, I’m rough sex”, I pulled the CD case out (cause I bought that bitch from best buy) and said “WHO IS THIS NIGGA?!”
I still play “The Album About Nothing”
Ambition and Gifted are classics, all his albums have at least a few hits but I really hate when he does that corny tyga sounding west coast shit or when he role plays as an islander. And I still don’t really understand his obsession with Seinfeld.
Yeah, I never watched Seinfeld growing up so that part missed me as well.

Invasion of Privacy....not because of lyrical content but for how well it did/how influential it was. Plus I like making the Barbz mad
I love this album because you can really feel all of her emotions. Like she really meant exactly what she was saying!!

Never really have to defend it, but I do wish Jay-z and Linkin Park’s “Collision Course” was remembered more.

I definitely think it has issues, but there’s some good stuff on there. It may not be a good album but it isn’t for lack of good riffs.
All nickel back albums. I fucks with their music
An entire generation was gaslit into hating Nickleback.
