    Don't rank any projects you haven't listened to. Didn't include label/collab albums with other rappers or any early tapes.

    Chronological order:
    So Far Gone
    Thank Me Later
    Dirty Sprite
    True Story
    Streetz Calling
    Take Care
    Astronaut Status
    Pluto
    Nothing Was the Same
    Honest
    Monster
    Beast Mode
    If You're Reading This It's Too Late
    56 Nights
    Dirty Sprite 2

    Rough order:

    Take Care
    Dirty Sprite 2
    56 Nights
    Monster
    Nothing Was the Same
    Beast Mode
    Pluto
    So Far Gone
    If You're Reading This It's Too Late
    Honest
    Dirty Sprite
    Thank Me Later
    Astronaut Status (only listened to this once)

    Haven't listened:
    Streetz Calling
    True Story

    It gets hard to rank So Far Gone and below. Top part was pretty easy.

    I'll bite the bullet and go first:
    Take Care
    Nothing Was The Same
    DS2
    56 Nights
    Monster
    If You're Reading This It's Too Late
    Beast Mode
    Pluto
    So Far Gone
    Honest

    Everything else I have to revisit before I rank, but I do think neither of the two have a 9/10 or higher project yet.

    And yes, I fully expect mad notifications bitching about my ranking of NWTS, but I've elaborated on why I think the album is great on this site and others many times.

    I think NWTS is a pretty good album, I've appreciated your thoughts of it and that's enough to justify its placement on your list for me.

    I mostly made this topic to see who's listened enough to be picking sides. :drakelaugh::wenevagonlose:

    I fully expect no more than 8 lists in this thread before the album drops lol.

    I edited in SFG and Honest.

    - Honest was good in moments, but most of it wasn't for me. The identity of the project isn't synonymous with Future's identity as an artist and that bothered me.
    - SFG was a great tape in that it kicked off the blog era in rap, but revisiting it, I can't listen from top to bottom all the way through. It was better in 2009 than it is in 2015 imo.

    Both of these haven't gotten spins in the last 12 months though.

    I appreciate Honest as kind of 'Future Lite,' but I agree. Funny how is project called Honest is his least honest.

    SFG might be below IYRTITL thinking about it, I'm just tired of IRRT so my gut reaction was that SFG is better.

    I actually just listened to SFG straight through last weekend. It's so hard to be critical of albums like that. s--- was literally the soundtrack to my life in high school.

    Same, I just try to remember how I felt about it 6 months ago so fatigue doesn't influence my opinion much lol. And my full appreciation for NWTS came more than a year after it's release so my list may not be fair to DS2 which is a top 3 project of the year for me.

    But yeah I'm happy with my list otherwise. :idk:

    Nah but ok

    Ds2 = 56 nights = beast mode
    Monster
    TC
    Dirty Sprite
    IYRT = NWTS
    SFG
    TML

    and I still haven't really listened to honest or pluto

    Basically the same answer

    Edit:
    DS2
    56 nights
    Beast mode

    And IYRT > NWTS

    If I had to chose

    Yeah wtf @Narsh. It's my fave of futures early tapes that I've listened to but there's no way it's better than NWTS/IRRT
