    BIGFOOT More than a myth!

    Mar 1, 2019
    Fam I'm kinda struggling to think of another debut hip-hop album that beats Curtis 'Mozart' Jackson's classic GRODT... The impact it had was crazzzzy. Pretty much every track was, or was thereabouts a hit record.

    Who else you got that rivals Fifs 1st album?

    Illmatic
    Reasonable Doubt
    College Dropout
    GKMC
    Doggystyle
    Chronic
    It's Dark and h--- Is Hot
    Capital Punishment

    Ready to Die
    Enter the Wu-Tang
    Liquid Swords
    OB4CL
    Thug Motivation 101

    I'll be honest though, none of those are f---in with GRODT. Illmatic probably comes closest. GKMC and College Dropout are up there too.

    Get Rich or Die Tryin' is the biggest hip hop album of all time. name another artist that detailed the murder of their enemy in their platinum album, on a platinum single, on a #1 music video and didn't catch any charges

    yeah well, how to rob so anything jay/nas dropped is moot. If Jay and Nas are such gangstas/good rappers why didn't they end fifty? and instead why did 50 have the biggest debut single in hip hop of all time


    don't talk s--- n----- or i'll drop a bag on your head #lecheminduroi #getthestrap

    Man some of my favorite songs of all time are on Power of the Dollar, Guess Who’s Back, and GRODT. They have so many classics.

    Guess Who’s Back is the greatest mixtape of all time.
