Zinan Silver Cap 🪙 COC A FELLA RECORDS but that’s mid to you tho. 2014 Forest Hills Drive is recognized as a classic album by people who don’t even like JCole. You don’t have to like the music but that’s just the truth. You can disagree all you want i just don’t agree

TheFourHorsemen Silver Cap 🪙 COC A FELLA RECORDS '2014 Forest Hills Drive is recognized as a classic album by people who don’t even like JCole.'

Like who? what reputable news outlet, music outlet, rap circle anything of note claims 2014 forest hills drive is a classic rap album, like GKMC or TPAB?

Zinan TheFourHorsemen COC A FELLA RECORDS Well, to be honest, you might be better off checking the way back machine to what they were writing around the time that it released

I don’t necessarily look for articles to validate whether or not I enjoy an album, but I guess it speaks to whoever would like to be a dick rider

Silver Cap 🪙 TheFourHorsemen COC A FELLA RECORDS So in other words you can't produce something that should be so easy?

Any classic album that's widely accepted as a classic can be backed up very easily, so this should also be the case right? 😂

Zinan Silver Cap 🪙 COC A FELLA RECORDS 2014 Forest Hill Drive is Triple Platinum. Everything in that album stands true to this day. Songs from the album are still being played today. EVERYBODY knows Wet Dreams, EVERYBODY knows no Role Modelz, etc.

TheFourHorsemen Silver Cap 🪙 COC A FELLA RECORDS Already touched on sales =/= classic status

There's many albums that sold a ton but suck, and there's classic albums that didn't sell much at all.

Zinan Silver Cap 🪙 COC A FELLA RECORDS The Eminem show went Diamond why again?

TheFourHorsemen Silver Cap 🪙 COC A FELLA RECORDS Because it was an amazing album on all fronts, both commercially for radio play and wider audiences and content-wise for the critics and hardcore rap fans??

Zinan Silver Cap 🪙 COC A FELLA RECORDS sooooo you’re saying there’s a correlation between good music and album sales?

TheFourHorsemen Silver Cap 🪙 COC A FELLA RECORDS Nope. I literally said some great albums sell badly and some terrible albums sell good.

Sales don't equal quality. Sure you can have a great album also simultaneously sell well but it's not always the case. Food & Liquor by Lupe Fiasco is a classic that did poorly for example

Zinan Silver Cap 🪙 COC A FELLA RECORDS i guess the term classic is subjective. to each their own
