Rock listener here. Just finished listen to this and im not impressed at all. I kept hearing how this was the pinnacle of hip-hop and its really bland
thought literally anything is much better than this shit

am i missing something?

It's not very entry level hip-hop desu.

You need to be black to get it.

yes, you are

It's not the pinnacle of hip-hop.

Listen to:
Public Enemy - It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold us Back
Madvillain - Madvillainy
Death Grips - The Money Store

only good album you listed is madvillainy

Maybe it just doesn't fit your taste man. I'm confident that most people can find hip hop that they enjoy. Keep searching, because it really is a diverse and fantastic genre

are you seriously implying public enemy is worse than madvillain

you don't even deserve a maymay arrow

aged like milk

>pinnacle of hip-hop
bahaha I know this is bait but at least try to make it seem realistic

Should be vibin to Still Brazy

So is this a new copypasta now?

How? It sounds good today. Only shitty music ages.

It Takes A Nation of Millions is miles better than Madvillainy

Listen to this senpai.

Kendrick spit the verse of the year on this

no its not. it takes a nation of million just falls flat now, it has aged terribly. madvillainy is 100x better.

>Death Grips - The Money Store

I'd listen to it multiple times, and pay attention to the lyrics, they're probably the most substantial element of the album. Also,

is absolutely right. You can do a whole lot better if you're just wanting to get introduced to hip-hop.

it only got critical aclaim because giving it a bad score would be racist

well this isn't really true is it

How the fuck does music age? If it sounded good then, it sounds good now. Our ears haven't changed.

butthurt strokes fan

Honestly, this is in my top 10 of all time

sure our ears haven't changed but music has grown lots since then. the beats just dont hold up anymore compared to todays standard. it comes across as a lame "le good lyrics" album with shitty production

not him but music can definitely age

it obviously takes a while to get into a new genre

It's just not your thing m8
Stick to what you like

>Madvillainy
>good
>Death grips money store
>hip hop

Just fuck off

how's 8th grade

Good, you probably shouldn't listen to hip hop at all. It's for BLACKS ONLY. It's NOT for you.

That rhyme scheme

listen to some entry level hip hop

try College Dropout on for size, everyone likes that album

Blacks can keep it then

You better stay the fuck away from jazz too

>listening to bix nood

Nah

Slick Rick - The Great Adventures of Slick Rick
Eric B. & Rakim - Paid in Full
N.W.A. - Straight Out of Compton
Ice Cube - AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted
KRS-One - Return of the Boom Bap
Nas - Illmatic
The D.O.C. - No One Can Do It Better
Wu-Tang Clan - Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
Dr. Dre - The Chronic
Snoop Doggy Dogg - Doggystyle

if you don't like hip-hop after these give up

ebic

mhm, then Late Registration and/or MBDTF if you liked Kanye's stuff on College Dropout

probably some other entry-level hip hop is The Chronic, Enter the Wu Tang, La Boutique, and Illmatic for some pre 2000s stuff

good kid, mAAd city is a way better starting point than TPAB for Kendrick's stuff. I can't really imagine listening to TPAB without listening to GKMC first.

also, just gotta mention the Marshall Mathers LP, Ready to Die, Operation Doomsday, Madvillainy, and maybe Entroducing. All this shit is entry-level

>All this people suggesting some fucking "lyrics-heavy" albums to a rock listener

Start with some trap.

Young Thug, Future, Gucci mane Shit like this then guys like The underachievers or Flatbush Zombies, Lamar, The game and then move into the irrelevant shit other posted here.

All those albums are great!

If he is gonna listen to Thugga, he will never listen to hiphop again.

>hating on based Thugger

Hit the weights and get a clue

Yes, but
+ A Tribe Called Quest - Midnight Marauders
+ Biggie Smalls - Ready To Die
+ K Lamar - Good Kid

- Straight Out of Compton

this pretty much sums up a lot of my taste, so i gotta ask. what comes after entry level in your mind?

Refer to this chart

that's a horrible chart just refer to these

This is the post that proves Sup Forums is fucking retarded.

>all fucking boom bap
U know there are other types like southern rap, trap, cloud rap right

i'm posting entry level shit faggot. post whatever you want

the chronic and doggystyle aren't boom bap

If all this is entry level, then what the hell is the step after that?

death grips

Oh c'mon

Eminem is the pinnacle of hip hop. Not even memeing.

Anything else you would recommend that is not "entry level"?

Dalek.

Lil Ugly Mane
Aesop Rock
Billy Woods
El-P
MF DOOM

>op listens to current year hip hop
>doesn't like it
>itt people start giving older recs and even borderline out dated referenced albums
i'm gonna tell you guys now he won't be interested. give him a more current rec

taste

>give him fotm garbage

why would anyone do that

Try
Big L -lifestylez ov da poor and dangerous

Thank me later.

Well first you actually have to enjoy hip-hop OP that might help with liking it

trap is fucking garbage why would you recommend anything trap

quads confirms

>fotm
you're telling me there's absolutely no good entry points for someone getting into rap in the last 5 years!?
apply yourself.

just listen to older kendrick it's way more accessible
