Is there a such thing as an instant classic? Or do albums need a decade or so to marinate? Classic one of the most overused terms in hip hop.

I love Murs but this MF is trippin! Btw Section 80 is a classic and it is his first album so…
Victory lap, no dope on sundays,gkmc,born sinner fuck yall mean yall sleeping on real shit
Coloring Book?
So can you say an album will be a classic in 10 years
Rodeo, GKMC, MDBTF and Yeezus are all easily classic. They all influenced and changed the genre
flower boy??
GKMC and Pimp a Butterfly. Both instant classics
Kamikaze is out now sooooo!
Watch the Throne?
So we just gonna act like gkmc wasnt a classic
GKMC and TPAB will be classics.
Ummm that’s not the rodeo cover art
I don’t care what he says Swimming by Mac will go down as a classic
I was just waiting for him to mention Kid Cudi…..
MBDTF is the single greatest hip hop album of all time. It doesn’t need to age
Lil Wayne – Tha Carter III (2008)
Kanye West – My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (2010)
The Roots – Undun (2011)
Kendrick Lamar – good kid, m.A.A.d city (2012)
Run the Jewels – Run the Jewels 2 (2014)
Kendrick Lamar – To Pimp a Butterfly (2015)
A Tribe Called Quest – We Got It from Here… Thank You 4 Your Service (2016)
Danny Brown – Atrocity Exhibition (2016)
Chance the Rapper – The Coloring Book (2016)
Kendrick Lamar – DAMN. (2017)
You’re trippin
To Pimp a Butterfly and MBDTF are definitely classics. other than that i agree
I would argue that any album that cannot be improved in any way should be considered a classic, no matter how old the album is. Also, I don’t think timelessness should even be a factor, as there are plenty of examples of groundbreaking, “classic” albums that don’t hold up as well today.
NF has some classics easily
To Pimp a butterfly, Damn, Under Pressure, 2014 Forest Hill Drive, Flower Boy, The Marshall Mathers LP 2, and Nothing Was the Same could all be classics in 10 years.
You wrong in your premise though, nigga
Anthony fantano gave tpab a 10 tho
good kid mad city is a classic.ill listen to that until im 80! Just for personal reasons.
I was about to be real upset with you not having TPAB or GKMC as classics but I understand the reasoning. Turns out if you just let someone explain their views it gives you time to chill the fuck out.
Run the Jewels 3 is a classic.
To Pimp A Butterfly is a classic
Jcole forest hill is a classic. Fuck what you think
Imagine thinkin MBDTF isn’t a classic… if not the greatest album ever created
Take Care is a classic. Undebatable.
Reloaded by Roc Marciano is a classic.
Control system and DWTW BY, Ab-Soul… ?
The Doctors Advocate is a classic
Kendrick, big Sean, and jay Electra’s control is definitely a classic my guy
To Pimp A Butterfly is pretty solid and will eventually become. Classic.
None of drakes new albums will be classics they all suck
FOH GDMC , DAMN , MBDTF is all classic
At long last asap by asap Rocky is an instant classic
TPAB is a classic
Recent classics:
TPAB
GKMC
2014 FHD
Atrocity Exhibition
And maybe Kids see Ghosts will be.
That’s my opinion of course.
This is just not true there have definitely been classics
Culture by migos a classic though
In the wake of Mac miller passing, you would consider any of his early albums a classic?? If so which ones??
I think when people use the word “classic” in this context they are saying that it is so good and it will impact music so much that eventually it will become a classic…
