168714, Ok, but retail albums are like championships
Posted by Tiger Woods, Sat Apr-20-13 10:08 PM
Mix tapes and Internet singles are like regular season games or scoring titles. They're fun in the moment, but they're not what ultimately defines an artist's (slash baller's) legacy.
You're indirectly watering down the importance of full albums in an effort to defend Lupe's shoddy full length LP output.
Illmatic > Dedication 2
Blackstar > Good Mob Soul Food 4
I could do that forever and you could too.
The point is that the albums matter more than anything else and Kendrick's one album is better than any of Lupe's four.
