How you do define a classic record is simple...will you listen to the album 10 years from now? When you do, will you listen to it all he way through? Will you get the same plresure from it? That being said, did they REALLY have to re-release the first Nas album to comemmorate its 10 year anniversary?

Based on this, "Umi Says" is a classic while "til the sweat drips from my balls" has a short shelf life.

classic? i guess it depends on how you define classic, which is one thing that i think a lot of people are confused about... but, to add 2 cents to the bucket, i'd have to say...

j-live's 'the best part'... that's classic

Bridgin The Gap - Black Eyed Peas.... Hadn't listened to it in a couple of years. Marinated well over time.

I listed Do You Want More!?!?!! on a earlier string - I might as well have listed the entire Roots discography - from ORGANIX to The Tipping Point. That's some real ****!

the top 5 i own are

1. dr dre. - the chronic
2. pharcyde - bizzare ride
3. fugees - the score
4. any outkast cd, stuck between southernplayalistic.. and aquemini
5. miseducation of lauryn hill

and of course, how can we forget puffy, diddy, puffidy, whatever you call him. he's just the greatest. we all know that.
