I think that might be the case why they didn’t agree on MMATBS and MMESYF being a classic. Both are 8/10 or higher but might not have that unanimous critical acclaim amongst critics and fans. One being mixed with fans and the other not breaking into the mainstream stratosphere.

MMATBS will age the best of all of these and is an absolute classic. There are so many themes no other rapper has ever talked about, it's super mature and musically timeless. Yes, it's very demanding from a listener - you gotta give it a time to grow on you and think about it, learn, and explore. Specially, after the recent beef and rewatching "The Big Steppers Tour" - there is no doubt in my mind that this is 100% classic. If you invest time to truly "get it".

Lu literally gave 'Utopia' an Amazing rating and gave 'We Don't Trust You' a Great rating. Make it make sense? - Utopia sold half a mil first week after not dropping an album for 5 years. - Has the highest grossing tour of hip-hop history. - One of the most unique soundscapes ever in hip-hop. - One of the most hyped/anticipated albums in the last how many years. - And on top of that, THANK GOD, MODERN JAM, I KNOW ?, MELTDOWN, AND HYAENA, were Lu's top 5 most played songs on Spotify in 2023, let that actually sink in. Nah like ACTUALLY. But because Kendrick had a memorable verse on 1 song out of 17, that album gets deemed a classic but Utopia doesn't? Yes the impact of that moment was huge but what about the rest of the fucken album lmao? Might as well rename We Don't Trust You to Like That at this point. And for anyone who thinks that selling high or having big tours doesnt equate to classic, keep in mind that classic' is usally defined by how the community sees the album, not just you. Lu even used fucken "album delays" as an argument for Donda being a classic. For instance, WLR is my least favourite Carti album, but the impact of it was undeniable and I wouldn't be mad if it got considered a classic. This is coming from a fucken Kendrick fan, and I think Future the greatest out of Atlanta, don't be on my dick like Lu be on Kendrick.

Couples months later I said ama give it another try and still tinkered with it, still struggled. It was not until this year I made a definitive decision to really sit with the album and give it the time and lemme tell you, not only is this a classic, this is a masterpiece of musicianship. I even got teary eyed listening to some of the songs due to what he’s saying and how he’s delivering his lines. He said some powerful shit which is typical of Kendrick of course but still impactful because of the context of the album. So yes, MMTBS is aging beautifully and I can’t stop listening to it❤❤.

My Turn to a lot of people might not go down as a classic, but I think it SHOULD be in the trap classic conversation and here's why. this album was a huge moment for 2020 as covid was just happening, it helped us get through the year. lil baby was on a generational run as people were calling him the "Lil Wayne of this generation". I think people forget how insane that claim is.. The album itself is 20 songs and it managed to spawn consistent bangers after bangers, hits after hits, which is impressive for a long tracklist. Many people were still talking about this album for 2+ years, until the underwhelming "It's only me" album released and it really shifted that focus away from My turn because people had crazy expectations for the new one. The only reason that My turn lost a lot of the community lore is solely because of It's only me. It didn't live up to the hype thus the reason people starting saying lil baby fell off and My Turn lost its spotlight from the rap fans and community. if It's only Me hadn't released, i believe the community would be putting My Turn in the classic conversation and we would be talking about it a lot more. Regardless of how you feel about the tracklist or Lil Baby's current form, you can't deny how much My Turn dominated the Trap scene And if we wanna talk numbers, which doesn't actually matter to be considered a classic, i'll mention it anyway, statistically it's been dominating the charts for 4+ years. and is 5x platinum. A lot of the music videos have hundreds of millions of views on YT

Big Steppers is definitely a classic -- it's just not very popular because of its subject matter. It's not something you put on casually and listen to it outside of maybe N95, but to me, culturally, it's a very important piece of work. It's incredible that someone of his stature took that kind of sonic and emotional risk. Songs like "Mother, I Sober" and "We Cry Together" alone are classic material imo. Also, as a producer myself, those songs are really well constructed considering how experimental they are. The mixing is very good. It's so hard to make that hard of a listen actually, well, listenable.

@@Weweta The beef officially started there, sure, but it was a brand new album that had one song truly tied to the beef. Push Ups, Euphoria, Might Delete Later, Family Matters, and Heart Part 6 all referenced the album or songs from the album in ways that made it the more impactful album for the beef as a whole. Like I said, the beef led many to revisit it and reevaluate and kept it in conversation all year

the shadow of Mr Morale loomed large over the Kendrick-Drake battle. if there is one album that can arguably be truly tied to it, its Mr Morale, not We Dont Trust You. Like That is what will be a classic, the rest of the album, no. Mr Morale set the stage for Kendrick to truly cleanse himself publicly, air out all his issues, and set himself up for a rebirth in a way, that we are still holding our breath for currently. it also showcased how being authentic, vulnerable and flawed makes Kendrick the kind of artist who Drake can not beat. Family Matters and THP6 were clutching at threads laid down in Mr Morale that Drake had no ability to turn into anything

Utopia would not??? That is a straight up lie. All the build up it had before the tragedy. Like McDonald’s, Fornite etc. Had the tragedy not happened, it would have been huge. After the tragedy, it was toned down until it was safe for him to come back again, but then Trav came back stronger than ever. The sheer anticipation in people, to see what he cooked up in such a long time. The sort of sudden news of the release and the short build up. I have never wanted to listen to an album like it ever. And when it did finally release, it was huge. It’s his redemption album. Like Kanye’s MBDTF.

@@UZI-hb3cu Does an album have to only be culturally defining in the present day that it was released tho? MMATBS is only 2 years old and as the years have passed, the topics he’s touched on have only been garnering more attention and agreement, even after the beef I was surprised to hear a lot more people say they actually like the album more than when it was first released. I don’t think it was culturally defining when it released because it was so anti- the current identity, values, and beliefs society wanted to hold onto. It absolutely can become more culturally defining in representing the new identity, values, and beliefs that society would rather have. All those classics you mentioned aligned with what society wanted at the time(i.e. when society got tired of gangsta rap and chose Ye’s classic) Kendrick created an album he wants to see, society will get with it at some point in our life as it becomes more relatable.

Plenty of great songs on it but it’s more of like a teaser of what’s to come and he needs to now build on it for his next project, like an artist can have a breakout project where they show potential of what they can be and that’s it i think
It already is a classic. My favourite from his discog. Revolutionary
