2540699, Are you kidding about B'Day?

"B'Day" wasn't even a real album. It was a collection of singles with some filler, similar to the LPs of the '60s. She's a singles artist and a pop celebrity, not an artist who makes GREAT albums.

Confessions is a fan favorite but I wouldn't call it a classic. Beyond the singles, the rest of the album, while well-produced, didn't blow anyone away. Although, I'm sure some will contradict this.

Miseducation is definitely a contender but was it a proper R&B album or a soulful album by a world-renowned hip hop artist?
