    tbh. It's one of the highest rated rap albums of all time, so what?

    Maybe the album isn't just for OP but saying people shouldn't call it the best album of the decade is laughable... if this is how they feel then so be it.

    Why every time when the greatness of TPAB is brought up it is linked to it's jazz elements and why are the jazz elements objectively better than any other type of production. Answer me this question please
    gkmc works way better as an album and a story than tpab

    Keep in mind, people also annoyingly overpraised GKMC as this complicated album when it really isn't. It's a simple narrative executed very well. It doesn't have to be complicated to be good.

    gkmc is just painfully mediocre to me, I can see the genius of tpab, but gkmc is meh, it just doesn't work for me.

    also as far as Jazz/Funk production Tpab's production isn't even above average, I can think of tons of albums that did it better

    If you change your opinion on a project because of how other people praise it then you're an idiot.
