    Kendrick has flair in his voice, experimental production and spitfire flows with some hits

    Cole has accessible flows with some hits, smooth production, heartfelt and emotional stories that are relatable and easy on the ears

    Drake has hits and accessible flows
    Edit: Drake also has smooth a--- production

    I got sideline as okay some of the songs he has on there are incredible. TPAB a classic to me 4yeo good, and I'm hoping kod can hit the phenomenal/classic with time but we'll see. Other than that pretty spot on

    I hate Sideline and I'll always feel salty about the label not allowing Friday Night Lights as his debut album

    TPAB was only released 3 years ago, it needs more time to marinate.

    I didn't really like 4YEO aside from Immortal, Changes, Neighbors, and the title track

    Kendrick definitely does not have just one classic album lol. He has AT LEAST two that's not debateable

    Cole MIGHT have one depending on how highly u hold his three best

    The little girl in Window Pain make me think when Cole said "something f'd up is going to happen to your kid(s), the goal is to have them the least f'd up as possible." Wonder how she will turn out in her older years.

    I just feel like 3 years is too early to call something a classic, not that TPAB won't be regarded as a classic

    There's no way TPAB won't be a classic in 3 years. Critically acclaimed, loved by the fans, massive success, huge for the culture etc

    Word, I just hate when someone drops an album and the stand instantly yell "CLASSIC". If it's not by Ye, shut up and let it marinate.

    Yeah that's fair but I still love breakdown, rise and shine daddy's little girl and lost ones so I got it as okay but yeah if it was FNL as the debut it would've been awesome

    For 4yeo I agree completely but those songs to me are good enough to push the album to good especially since the title track may go down as a top 5 Cole song for me

    I don't know if d--- will be classic, but chances are it could be. It's Kendrick's Eminem show, with the most hits and univerally loved songs. Knowing how people feel about TPAB now vs. 3 years ago...they'll probably call his next album overrated and d--- "a classic"

    That beat on photograph too good and that hype part Cole does everytime before the hook is one my favorite parts of the album.
