Classic or not?

Extremely bored... not tired, so here we go!

Talib Kweli- Eardrum
Das EFX- Hold It Down
Cormega- The True Meaning
Aceyalone- A Book Of Human Language
Scarface- The Untouchable
Common- Be
De La Soul- The Grind Date
NWA- Efli4zaggin
Kanye West- Late Registration
K-Rino- Danger Zone
Cunninlynguists- A Piece Of Strange
Kam- Neva Again
KRS-One- KRS-One

Dope albums but i don't know if i would call any of them undeniable classics. I see alot of 4.5 albums on this list. Some of these are classics to some people.

Late Registration is a classic for me. Be and A Piece Of Strange are close to that status.

The classics on your list IMO are:

De La Soul-The Grind Date
KRS-One-KRS-One
NWA-Efli4zaggin


that's all I see on that list that I would consider outright classics IMO!

So you don't think KRS-One's self titled album and A Piece Of Strange are good??

Scarface- The Untouchable- 4.5 for me

De La Soul- The Grind Date- 5 stars
NWA- Efli4zaggin- Around 4.25 for me
Kanye West- Late Registration- 5 stars
K-Rino- Danger Zone- 4.75-5 for me

Opps...I 4got that one it would fall under good albums for me.

Id say KAM.KRS. and Aceyalone. Krs is really barely making it though. One song OUT FOR FAME puts it as classic status
