    not sure about that

    I think mbdtf & gkmc will be considered as their best albums. You ain't seeing these "universally acclaimed" albums dropping every year :kanye3:

    No lie, this is arguably one of the greatest albums I have ever heard, and not just in hip hop music

    GKMC is one of my favorite albums ever and is probably better than any album thats not Illmatic, RD, MMLP. Its better than GRODT, MBDTF, Documentary

    Definitely not better than GRODT or The Documentary. The best song on GKMC is Madd city and it simply cannot compare to Many Men or Hate it or Love it.

    Lmao, the best song on GKMC is not Madd City (that ranks about 4th), it's SAM/IDOT and it's ahead of anything on GRODT or The Documentary, it's otherwordly in comparison.

    I saw a huge poll on the internet (with 2000 votes) and gkmc won against documentary (78% vs 22%)

    agree with these results tbh

    the reason gkmc is on every best of lists and not The Documentary is because the documentary is bad. It's an album full of B+ beats bu D- lyrics

    Well back on SL there was a thread of GRODT vs. GKMC and The Doc vs. GKMC and GKMC was losing on both of them.

    I saw this thread and only 20-30 persons voted.

    But then again, internet polls don't mean s--- and a poll with 2000 votes is more relevant than one with 30 votes IMO

    The album was so refreshing. Kinda the same feeling when em came out, it was a person you could really relate to and became very popular despite being so real (far too often the realest rappers never blow up)

    I skip 8 songs on GRODT and zero on Born Sinner. Is that how this works?
