    T.I was big in 2006 but I remember after Paper Trail he was huge after Live Your Life & Dead & Gone. He started that trend the Jay came with BP3 & Eminem with Recovery.
    He started that sound & Paper Trail was much better than those albums.

    Something else I have noticed that apart from some Kanye's interviews hip hop has become boring because of social media. No beefs or controversy or even interesting interviews everyone just tweets.

    Blueprint is amongst the greatest rap albums of all time. Easy choice. I mean Disposable Arts is great but it doesn't even almost come close. BP is nearly flawless front to back.

    Edit: forgot about Stillmatic, also an amazing project but BP >>>>>

    Big Sean formed a coherent verse above Eminem's s--- on his tribute to his home, Detroit vs Everybody

    Going by your own dumb Stan logic Big Sean ethers his entire career

    You guys amaze me
