A list of albums that are worse than Death Grips' "The Money Store" according to RYM:
>Reasonable Doubt AND The Blueprint
>Black Star
>Things Fall Apart AND Game Theory
>Doggystyle AND The Chronic
>Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde AND Labcabincalifornia
>The Cold Vein
>3 Feet High and Rising
>Stankonia
>Straight Outta Compton
The list literally goes on. Has /mu/ single handedly destroyed music criticism as a credible, relevant force in hip-hop?

you're complaining about tms when mbdtf is rated even higher
>Reasonable Doubt AND The Blueprint
Jay Z is garbage.
>Black Star
meh
>Doggystyle AND The Chronic
Good albums but not mindblowing like TMS.
>Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde AND Labcabincalifornia
>The Cold Vein
>3 Feet High and Rising
Good albums but not better than TMS.
>Stankonia
One of their weakest albums.
>Straight Outta Compton
Overrated. Niggaz 4 life is better.
TMS was truly revolutionary. Also it's way more relevant nowadays with all its futuristic themes. You can't blame people for preferring modern music that deals with actual modern problems.

>TMS was truly revolutionary
Exmilitary was revolutionary and TMS was a huge step back.

Doggystyle and the chronic is just stoned-out, g-funk. That's the kind of hip hop I listened to when I was 15. Get some taste kiddo and evolve your taste.

I prefer Exmilitary too but the aesthetic on TMS is more clearly defined. It's truly futuristic in its approach and execution.
It's weird and slightly horrifying to think that most of /mu/'s current userbase was somewhere between 11-16 when The Money Store came out. Literal children have had their mushy brains shaped like putty by a melon who makes sxephil videos about music, and a group of cynical aging proto-hipsters who've carved out a niche of writing music reviews that almost never talk about music at all.

>Niggaz 4 life is better
This thread made me listen to death grips for the first time ever. It's alright, sounds kind of like a weeb videogame with a rapper over it.

>Insulting Reasonable Doubt
Well fuck I'm triggered now.

mbdtf deserves the praise though
