J cole sideline story
Half of Jay-Z’s albums (partially because the rest are classics).
And these old motherfuckers don’t like Life Is Good????
Drag-On
Sophie,bad af
J .Cole’s 4 Your Eyes Only is a big disappointment smh
views is a modern day yeezus…think about it
Watch The Throne
goblin was a huge disapointment
Encore, The Doggfather, and Nastrodamus
J. Cole’s Born Sinner most disappointing album I’ve experienced in my life, Slaughterhouse: Welcome to our house, killed all of those involved careers, Eminem’s relapse, and Ab-Soul’s These Days are what comes to mind.
so.. like toy soldiers, mosh, never enough, yellow brick road, mockingbird, spend some time, rain man, we as americans,encore (curtains) …were all bad songs??! lmaaao yall trippin… Encore was not a bad album at all… yes albums before it were better but fuck no Encore ain’t bad fuck that…
what about Q-Tip solo records?
I forgot about the No Limit version of Snoop. It’s easy to repress bad memories.
Encore has to be biggest disappointment in hip-hop, but I still think it’s brilliant that it’s called Encore. Like Em knew he can’t make a good album, but the label and fans didn’t want him to quit (remember how he had that Curtain Close skit on Eminem Show like he’ was about to Say Goodbye to Hollywood, pun intended). I’m not defending it, it’s still wack but I think it’s still amazing that even at that Encore time, he was still 110% self-aware.
Chamillionaire after Ultimate Victory
Death Grips let Myke down
Nastradamas
jay z “kingdom come”… Straight trash. Especially since he was coming out of retirement and his last album was “the black album” which was an instant classic. No excuse for making a comeback with such gabage.( I know there’s an ‘r’ in garbage i dropped it on purpose so fvck you).
#1 dissapointment: Kingdom Come…jay’s first album back from retirement? 3 years off? huge huge hype? It was a fucking dud!
The undisputable most disappointing album in hip hop history has got to be Encore by Eminem. After he dropped TES in 2002 he was making his way up to legend status and the second Encore dropped in 2004 his career fell off a cliff. Went from one of the better, more consistent discographies in hip hop to one of the worst. Encore set off a chain of awful albums, Relapse was bad, Recovery was much, much, MUCH worse, MMLP2 wasnt as bad as Relapse, Recovery, or Encore but it was still trash, and Revival was fucking terrible
I know this is an old video but Vic Mensa’s album so far for me is a let down. It’s not bad, but I’m not feeling it at the moment.
Blonde. Blonde. Blonde.
Sophie cute as hell
Ik this video was posted awhile ago, but the correct answer is Eminem’s Revival.
Here’s my personal list:
Tha Carter IV
Magna Carta Holy Grail
Lasers
Cole World: The Sideline Story
Recovery
Nas debut album was a little letdown
Indiecud lol
J. Cole’s debut album, it was good but it didn’t have the same passion and focus that his mixtapes had.
Cam’Ron I love you, but you fell off to family.
Nervous breakdown,
the fu shnickens!!
Cold Vein by Cannibal Ox was fucking terrible, that EP didn’t even begin to prepare me for the letdown. The new juicy j mixtape was disappointing as well. Last few have been trash I just expected this one to be better since most of the production was done by suicideboys and juicy j promised to take it back
Food and Liquor Pt. 2
I would say Big Sean’s second album. That album was so bad.
Deltron’s Event 2 was wack.
b after 15 minutes
What is myke wearing
Did they just say the mixtapes between Carter 3 and 4 were Wack?? Wayne released No Ceilings which is probably the greatest mixtape of all time during that period
Eminem encore
DAMN.
Speedin bullet to heaven
if Eminem never got addicted to drugs encore woulda been another classic
To me … “Lasers”, by far. Not only in rap, but in music in general!
what 50 cent mixtape Myke talkin about at 12:27 besides War Angel? Is he saying “streets immortal?”
action bronson mr wonderful
