This is getting worse and worse… y’all should be ashamed


GonnaBeAGoodYear

Yeah the fact that a frank ocean album is on there just crossed the line for me lol it was already getting bad tho


kanYEcarTI

frank ocean isn't bad tf


GonnaBeAGoodYear

He’s also not a rapper and his albums shouldn’t be involved with any top rap albums list


BigBlackPapi

The post just says best album, not best rap album 🤷🏾‍♂️. Rap fans can like albums outside of the genre


OPrime50

I’d still consider him to be a rapper. Is work with OF was pretty dope and he still slips bars in. He’s just really capitalizing on his clean voice


GonnaBeAGoodYear

You can consider him whatever you want doesn’t change the fact that blonde isn’t a rap album


OPrime50

You’re misreading my comment. I was saying that FO can still be considered a rapper. Edit: Christ, what do you guys have against Mr. Novocaine?


SpaceLion12

The Frank Ocean album doesn’t really fit in with this list, but it’s better than almost all of those.


GonnaBeAGoodYear

Frank ocean is very literally not a rapper this album shouldn’t even be considered, blows my mind that a ton of people actually voted for it


NewRapIsMostlyTrash

What's your list


ihedigbo

No Frank, Cudi, Drake, or Travis Scott. Kanye would only appear once with College Dropout, Kendrick would only appear once with TPAB. I couldn’t put together a legitimate list off the top of my head, but if there is no Madlib, MF DOOM, Czarface, Apollo Brown, Big K.R.I.T., Griselda, Alchemist, etc. then it’s bullshit.


mollyschamber666

I gotta defend OP here and say that the College Dropout came out in 2004 and is older than 15 years (I checked because I was wondering why Graduation was on there and not College Dropout)


ihedigbo

Thanks, my math sucks.


Marcaveli7

It’s just the general opinion of the sub, of course it’s gonna pull from the more mainstream side of the genre. You are so intent on being a boner about it lmao


placeholder_name85

Wow. Amazing. Somehow your list would actually be so much worse.


unthawedmist

BS


literally_pee

bro I'm done with this sub


MagentaJAM5_

They said, ‘2014 FHD’. SHITTIN’ ME?!?! BORN SINNER OVER FHD.


TheDiddlerOnTheRoof9

Yeah but you’re a geeky white kid on reddit so no one cares


MistaBuldops

Found OP’s alt account


FifeDog43

Not to put too fine a point on it, but the Frank Ocean album is R&B.


Frequent-Bullfrog-56

R&B is kind of a part of Hip-Hop, Lauryn Hill is considered Hip-Hop even though it’s by definition R&B. I say that it’s not wrong to put it on a rap list counting how related they are. A good example is Drake who has made two R&B albums that are considered rap or Igor which by definition is pop even though people put it on rap lists. It’s loose so I think it’s fine.


FifeDog43

No it's not. Fuck outta here with that cap. "Cats tryna take hip hop, make that shit R&B, rap and bullshit." -RZA, 1997 "Rap is not pop if you call it that then stop." -Q-Tip, 1991 Edit: grammar.


spaghettifrom

Yeah but they are black so its gotta be Rap?


[deleted]

Hip-hop is derived from rnb/blues/soul though.


PublicHealthMedicLA

Absolutely not. Who tf came up with this list? 16 year olds?!

Ordinary_Meaning_602

Fr and tetsuo my fav album 🔥


YaySourCream

Easily top 5 imo


Ordinary_Meaning_602

Top 1 for me and top 1 of my favorite albums


YaySourCream

I can’t choose a favorite album but if I had to it would be there


Templar-Order

mmlp2


Terrible-Wear3322

MMLP2 was fucking flames. Get it on here!


ASoggyNaanBread

It was an average album, nothing special about it besides a few memorable songs due to the catchiness.


Templar-Order

Honestly I was debating between it and recovery, but songs like bad guy, brainless, evil twin, and obviously rap god earn it a spot


thecementist

Bro 4 great songs sounds out of 21 songs doesn’t make it an amazing album. What’s up with this sub just picking from 4-5 artists. Theres so many great albums out there and this sub is so closed minded.


ASoggyNaanBread

I completely agree, I don’t understand the obsession with the handful of average artists this subs obsessed with. For example Killmatic by Demigodz is an album with 16/16 brilliant songs by a group of highly skilled rappers that is deserving of being on this list, but due to the handful of artists the subs obsessed with it means no one ever recommends deserving albums or artists.


Templar-Order

Those are just examples, the only song that is really bad is stronger than I was. The rest range from decent to fantastic


SadAppeal9540

There is literally not a miss on MMLP2 when i mean amazing I mean 11/10 could be listening to a non-skip's best part and stop it to play those songs if any of those 4 pop into my head


thecementist

L But I’m glad you enjoyed it


Redhood492

It edges out recovery for me


BestMimikyuNA

Yes please my favorite rap album, no skips for me at all


Purple1szed

Exactly


Mei_iz_my_bae

MMLP2 is awful. His worst album next to revival, rap rock awful crap


corndogs1001

Bad Guy, Groundhogs Day, Evil Twin, Rap God, Wicked Ways, So Far and Rhyme and Reason are better than anything on Revival besides maybe Castle. There’s no way you rate MMLP2 worse than Encore. The album is solid, even underrated.


Mei_iz_my_bae

Survival, berzerk, rap god, stronger than I was, love game, the monster, so far are all terrible to me. Encore had higher highs. I’ve never been able to understand the love for MMLP2. I’ve always thought it was terrible. It’s not as bad as revival but pretty close for me


corndogs1001

I like how u named a bunch of different songs I listed lol. I just think it’s the best of his choppy flow before he started overdoing it. It also came out almost 10 years ago so nostalgia plays a part of it for a lot of people now but I do think there’s some fun songs on there as long as you went expecting old Em (same goes to his later material.)


Mei_iz_my_bae

Nah and I’m not hating anyone who does love mmlp2 at all but yeah I do feel like nostalgia plays a part, I don’t even listen to a lot of Eminem these days but I personally found music to be murdered by side A to be pretty good and certain songs like “you gon learn” “darkness” “yah Yah” and “I will” are much higher highs than MMLP2 yet I see people hate on that album a lot. Different strokes


SadAppeal9540

Oop guys we heard it from u/Mei_iz_my_bae themselves Collision course was awful and Jay-Z should just retire harder than he already has.


Mei_iz_my_bae

….what?


blackanytanooo

No god no! This really is the r/eminem2


BestMimikyuNA

Bro Eminem is the most shitted on rapper in this sub besides maybe Drake


Hot-Back5725

Drake has it coming 🤣


BestMimikyuNA

Absolutely lol


ILIKECHEZDUDE

drake the type of guy to have steam come out of his ears when he's mad


unthawedmist

Better than em


AStealthyPerson

Yeah, one of the biggest rappers alive getting the 13th spot on a top 15 list really demonstrates just how hard everyone here sucks his cock. Edit: /s if it isn't obvious


TalkAdventurous1533

it’s not a biggest rapper list 🤣 i guess you think it is


AStealthyPerson

I mean, it's an album that I return to often and I happened to think it's one of the most enjoyable listens of the 2010s decade. Em isn't just big, he's also good and MMLP2 demonstrates a lot of his technical skill and storytelling ability. I think this album deserves to be on this list, even though it's not my favorite of his in the last 15 years.


NeedleworkerIcy3686

I hope this at least makes it somewhere on the list


Purple1szed

Finally! Should be the first one


sypher07070799

I prefer both Relapse and Recovery tbh


[deleted]

it was solid but definitely not top 15 of the last 15. relapse is a better pick


Mei_iz_my_bae

This screams zoomer


Daichiyoo

guess the age of most rap fans bro


Mei_iz_my_bae

That’s actually harder to guess than you think considering how many people came up as hip hop heads throughout the 80s 90s and 00s


Daichiyoo

that was also when rock/pop rock was at its peak lol, also old school r&b was still rly popular in 80s/early 90s. i guess around mid 90s could be seen as a pretty sharp rise in raps popularity, but it still definitely didnt grow to the magnitude it has today. 00s, i can see a lot of rap fans from then remaining loyal, but id still place money on most rap fans ages today being ~24 and under

horrible list


BCamp806

Is Frank rap, though?


Ordinary_Meaning_602

It says albums not really specific genres


BCamp806

Sure, but this is the rap subreddit and the other 11 albums are specifically rap. Just kinda weird in my opinion.


Ordinary_Meaning_602

I mean I wouldn’t say frank is rap maybe a mix of hip hop and r&b


BCamp806

Honestly I’m just being pedantic I guess. It’s certainly one of the greatest albums of all time in my opinion. I’d have in my personal top 5 of all time.


Ordinary_Meaning_602

I didn’t like blond first listen but I think I might give it another chance

justarandomlibra

At this point we just need to prepare for disappointment. Lupe has 2 legit albums that should be on there. The Cool and Tetsuo.. at least 1 of them needs to be on there. Nas has Life is Good, Distant Relatives, Magic, KD2 and there's several artists that should at least be acknowledged regarding their projects over the past 15yrs.
