  1. Real rap, great topic. Nice lead in with Cube's AMW. However, I feel y'all are chopping it up on projects from the concept album era. So I believe the concept drove the pick of the tracks, and the lyrics were crafted to the tracks. Just my $0.02 tho... lemme get back to listening.

  2. I need to hear this!! Cuz for me a classic is the combination of both! However, I think it depends on the artist if I had to chose one. Cuz I didnt listen to Tribe for lyrics, I listened for beats...I listened to Nas for lyrics not beats...Both had classic albums.
