Es malardo, del rap que no me gusta para nada. Todo ladrido.

Can't even remember anything about this, and I only finished listening to it an hour ago.

American shit hip hop

Really not a fan of rap

1. geneziz - 1 2. mind - 1.5 3. bitch - 1 4. uuorld - 1 5. halftime - 1.5 6. memory - 1 7. love - 1 8. time - 1 9. reprezent - 0 10. hard - 1.5

East Coast HipHop consisting of beats where every track seems to hone in on a 3-note sequence and samples repeating endlessly rather than opting for a longer, more interesting loop.

Hard pass

Rap, mäßig spannend 1/5

Another confirmation I really do not like hiphop if this is peak hiphop...

Just a no.

Violent, vulgar, racist, misogynistic. WTF? CHEEYEAH!

Not a fan of rap.

(Sigh…)

Rap não vou ouvir de novo não. Putz, que preferência desse site chata pra rap! Saco! Tem que variar essa bagaça!

MANIFEST: Very tired of listening to so many rap albums among the 1001 most important albums in history!!! 🤦🏽 If I want to do the challenge and not give up, I'm going to have to abandon this style. METHOD: I will listen to 2 songs from the album suggested. If the album is rap or hip hop that is not very melodic or harmonious, I will listen the list of the author's 5 most listened to songs. Sorry, it's the exception I have to make about of so much snobbery on the part of critics... Rap is a respectable cultural artistic expression, with melodic winks, rhyme and very very standard rhythm, but it is not music! 😘

Another rap album- what gives?

No, nope.... might be a classic, but nope

Terrible

Shit rap

For Rap music, it could be good, but I just can't listen to it.

no me gusta

This not my cup of tea. Well, the sound is good, but the music is too repetitive. After a couple of songs, it simply annoyed me.

Just rap noise.

Only listened a bit. Not my thing. Pass.

Rap. 1/10

Lord No.

More Rap?

I see Nas all the time on Rate Your Music. I'm genuinely not big on hip hop, but 1001 Albums has spoken :] ── ࣪˖ ࣪ ⊹ ࣪ ˖ ── Gah. "Illmatic" was an overall super obnoxious album. The production was repetitive, there was a use of slurs Nas can't claim, and the album was lacking dynamically and musically. Compared to something like Kanye’s "MBDTF" or Tyler’s "IGOR," which balance strong beats emotional texture, Illmatic felt extremely one-note. I think Nas was trying too hard to appear "gangsta."

Just not my jam.

HipHop - Rap - nothing for me

rap - hip hop

HipHop? 0/5

Rap ist und bleibt für mich nichts

I wound up FFing through this one. I just don’t get it. Nothing redeeming or even remotely listenable about it for me. I understand rap is a valid art form but try as I may, I just can’t find a handle or route into this kind of rap.

Rap & my brain dont mix..... sorry.

Not a big like. Tried, just couldn’t get into it

I don't mind the rhythm and beat of this music, but if the music is blocked from my work server, then it's probably not for me.

I like the beat, but not my type of music.

Generic and predictable

Rap - hat nicht meins

horrible

Ganz schrecklich.

Einu sinni átti ég plötu sem hét 90s rap og mér þótti hún skemmtileg. Ég hef samt í seinni tíð komist að því að ég og rapp förum ekki vel saman. Kannski 90s rapp en ekki þetta.

Not for me.

A really hard listen

Don't care about rap. Maybe one song is tolerable.

Bang bang I sell drugs.

Boring.

Not for me at all

Niks voor mij. Geen variatie of bijzondere elementen.

Wasn't this a really big deal when it came out? I remember seeing this album cover everywhere. It's really boring! I didn't like anything about it. N-word this and N-word that, gnomesayin, guns, drugs, the usual, but the rapping itself was just blah. Once again, an album not meant for me.

Não identifiquei nada de expressivo em mais um disco de rap.

Every track was exactly the same, with so little variation that I had to concentrate to see even the slightest of variations. 10 tracks of (c)rap.

Not really my cup of tea

Nope, not for me

Naa if only I could I'd give it 0. No redeeming features at all.

Too rapy

Complete drivel. Offensive, obscene, parhetic attempt of trying to make an excuse for music.

I regret every minute

Nope not my preference

Not for me. Next!

It’s rap did not make it through the first track

As far as rap goes, this is decent and I can see what people like about it. It's still not my thing and I did not enjoy it.

Eh, not that great.

bad message, problematic language, made by jerks and most importantly boring.

Still can't stand this music (sorry), but the lyrics aren't helping either.

I'm not black, not American and not cranky. This album does zero for me. Kindergarten level music and a angry man shouting and swearing. Get off my lawn!

Þetta var bara svona bakgrunnshljóð sem runnu út í eitt. Núll spennandi.

Some monotonous mumbling over an uninspiring beat.

вообще не зашло. старый реп не мое

Not a rap fan

A middling hip hop album that fails to impress or chart in a meaningful way is something I need to hear? I think not.

No entiendo está música

Not a rap fan

Het gepraat is eentonig, maar ook de beats zijn erg saai. Nee, dit is hem niet.

Nooooombre, mejor le entró a la catafixia

La neta a la primera rola lo mandé a chingar a su madre.

Kwam echt niet verder dan 3 nummers. Soms worden de grenzen van wat je wilt proberen te waarderen bereikt.

called me a fag

Memoriiiiiiiiies

Gang gang
