The 10 WORST Albums By GREAT Rappers 

2008-15 I’d say. 2016 marked the start of his downfall with Views If you’re read this it’s too late from 2015 was his last great project

​@@LessGo7921Views was still pretty good

That is true what both of you said. & I felt the same way about views, more life, & scorpion. CLB was a solid bounce back album for Drake. I put it behind take care, nothing was the same, & thank me later as drakes 4th or 5th beat project.

@@peace_of_mind_00 CLB was ass bro. To put that next to a great album like Take Care feels like an insult tf 😭

@@LessGo7921I wouldn’t say it was ass

Agree. It’s just too messy of a thing to actually include in a list like this

Honestly, even calling Donda 2 a "demo" is giving it too much credit.

@@jeremyusreevu237I’d say failed experiment

Agreed, it's officially classified as a 'demo album' on Wikipedia now which seems appropriate imo. Donda 1 (or just Donda) remains an incredibly special and amazing record for me

Agreed the potential DONDA 2 has had me wishing he finished the album

It ain't weird and it ain't only nostalgia 'cause I'm 16 years old and I like it and listen to it regularly. And apart from Big Weenie My 1st Single and Rain Man everything else is good or perfect.

There were some good songs like Mockingbird, Like Toy Soldiers, Mosh

He's capping with Encore, it's a good transition

@@malte.3917 Yellow Brick Road. Spend Some Time, Evil Deeds it was okay

4 good songs don't make a good album

​@jalazel6447fr. Jus look at mad villainy. When it got leaked the label wanted to end it but it gained hype from the leak

in other words donda was everything that JIK tried to be

​@FissionableDolphin Hell, I wouldnt even consider that to be true either. Donda had so much potential, but many of the songs lack much instrumental and feel kinda empty (as unfinished songs often are). Ik that his label dropped it before he could finish, but idk I feel that the album was so cluttered, disorganized, and did not understand what it really wanted to be.

⁠@@user-rf1op3uh6nto each his own i guess, i found donda to be a solid 8/10 even with all of its unnecessary songs left on it. some of its potential was def squandered by the amount of bloat but at the very least it did a way better job at combining gospel with hip hop than whatever the hell JIK was trying to do

@@fissionabledolphin I agree

@@fissionabledolphinuse this gospel is a bop tho. Love that shit

If y’all actually think it’s trash then y’all weird

@@kamfisher1714Exactly I don’t get the hate. They’re the same ones who think Lil yachty’s last album was good.

@@lookoutside8490 Yatchy’s also wasn’t good tho. Don’t assume what I think 😂

@@lookoutside8490cuz it’s at least interesting to listen to

Honestly the worst drake album

Island Boys albums: hold my beer

@@kanadlakomentarzy3243yes, the island boys are all time greats

Listen to Total Xanarchy by Lil Xan

Its overall not terrible just not great

​@@sidhanthashok9809Lil Xan is not an all time great tho

it was a nice religious album, but it's Ye's "worst" album

@@kidsseeghosts9784 Yeah agree

@@kidsseeghosts9784less skips then late registration

I mean I'd definitely put it above Vultures

@@kidsseeghosts9784 I put it above vultures but ya

This is like saying that marvel movies are good because they make money

@@elliot157 the way he explained it though made it seem as if he was going off of numbers

@@elliot157marvel movies are good, that's why they're making money. Otherwise dc would be on top already. Especially since they get more Oscar buzz on average.

@@Antwannnn 😂

​@@elliot157dey r gud doe sum bad 1s here and there but yuh

Thats a fair take tbh. That would be in my top 20 at least

@jalazel6447 it didn't have only 2 good songs it has 3 or 4 and it didn't kill his career but Animal Ambition did kill 50s

@jalazel6447 Curtis was decent and some of those songs were popular at the time but no songs from Animal Ambition were and just because Encore was the end of his peek and the fact is hindsight he did come back but 50 did not that makes Animal Ambition worst

​@@cak1750 had some of his biggest songs ever on the Kanan tape and it was well received, he canceled the sequel for it and just decided to retire after that.

drake the typa guy to release 3 classics then invest fully in the most mediocre pop rap known to man

Wrong

With all the shady shit record labels to get hits and top 100 spots too how many of his “hits” are really hits. Shits been being swayed since the 50s with mobs owing juteboxes and paying off radio stations in the 70s

Nah that's cap when you said he wasn't a great artist in his initial run. I think you forget how absolutely huge he was from Thank Me Later to If you're reading this. Like two of those albums are definitely up there as the best hip hop albums of the 2010s. Don't get me wrong, Drake post views is horrible and imo has lost a lot of the respect he garnered before then, but I think if he never released another album after If you're reading this, he'd be at least a top 100 rapper with just that initial run.

Best hip.hop albums of the 2010's?? like top 60 below?

Yes I agree with you, it was okay Quiet Niggaz is good, Shoot 'em up is good, Nastradamus is okay, the guy narrating this doesn't really know I reckon.

@@midable-mc2cz Life we chose is good Come get me is good Even Family with mobb is vibe Quiet niggas is not good by the way) can’t stand this bravehearts dudes

yesss valid massive is fire

Your taste is trash then

NO, Magna Carta holy grail is better than kingdom come & Nasir is better than Nastradamus

@@Loganandvintagejosnumber1h8rBro MGHG is filled with some of Jay’s wackest bars over waisted beats and Nasir was poorly mixed and unfinished. Nastadamus has some gems like Come Get Me, Last Words, New World, Life We Choose, Family, Project Windows and same goes with Kingdom Come. Sorry but Nastradamus and Kingdom Come are better then the two weak 2010 albums they made.

@@dmercy8477 maybe Nasir wasn’t the best EP, but I will say that Everything and Adam & Eve are great songs

No it isnt

Talking about the production they're great songs

Facts bro people don’t got humor I guess 😂😂

@@spiderman-uc2wfit’s not funny that’s why, eminem on the first 2 albums was funny and clever, on encore he was a dopehead

Nah that ish was trash

Thank you for saying it!!! Because yes. It’s mostly hip hop/rap fans that hate on it and I don’t get it. Beyonce is a ln R&B singer and made a whole house album and they acted like she invented the genre. They act like artists aren’t allowed to explore other things. They are ARTISTS thats what art is about

@@eversounyque2622you can explore...has to be good tho. Ye is the king of exploration and new sounds. Rarely does he ever miss. Yeezus birthed so many current day artists sounds. And you wouldn't think that based off the perception after its initial release.

@@Antwannnn I have no issues with Ye. My issues is people who literally expect artists to do the same things and talk about the same things over and over. Or never give other sounds a chance. I hate to say this, but I’m black and most black people think house music is “white people music” so when Drake (a hip hop artists making music many black people enjoy) tries out a “white” style of music (even though it’s not) it’s called a trash album and people say he can’t rap xyz and that’s not fair

@YeezyLeaks I don't like the album, it's mid, I like some of the instrumentals and I like house music. Also, I love Kanye's art. He's one of my favourite musicians of all time and has made multiple timeless classics that I love and enjoy with all my heart.

Stan lol

@@vapingfastbreak5629 lol i am not a stan just cuz you defending someone doesn’t mean you are a meat rider

Nah, that shit was ass. It and “Revival” are for sure two of the worst rap albums of all time, objectively speaking.

​@@garrysaysshitur a meat rider

@jalazel64472 good songs? Bro never heard we are American, stimuli, rain man

He received great reviews. It should've been another artist on the #1 spot

Lookin 4 Tha Suckin bu Lil Ugly Mane

overhated af

Yeah its decent

True. But even I’ll admit that for Jay’s standards it was mediocre at best

​@LessGo7921 what would you say about magna Carter ? That is Jay's worst to me

@andreicossack5679 kingdom come is better than Magna Carta. His worst to me is Vol 3

The Prelude Oh My God Kingdom Come Show Me What You Got Lost One Do U Wanna Ride 30 Something Beach Chair All these tracks are dope 💯

Overly dedicated isnt even bad

@@slattslattslattJust a bit average in comparison to the rest of his work

How about Frank Ocean? I'd say NF is debatable too, Hope wasn't a bad album

Why not Griselda ?

@@lavranfrfr7622 Because they're popular underground rappers

@@CleanMusicLover229that doesn’t even make sense 😭

@@nycpick1163 How it doesn't make any sense? Griselda, Boldy James and Joey Bada$$ are the most popular "underground" rappers. Whereas guys like Raz Fresco, Briskinthehouse and ChillxWill are not as well-known.

@@nycpick1163 actually, that makes perfect sense. There’s probably millions of rappers who never get 1k listens for their songs while Griselda collectively gets millions

Facts

Because he’s a great rapper that dropped a bad album (honestly nevermind)

All albums since scorpion has been weak

donda 2 isnt even a finished project he uploaded the listening party version

Rebirth*

It's really not. Magna Carta is far from his worse. Kingdom Come was mid at best, even though there are quality songs on the album.

@ProfessorDarkness88 Tell me one good song on Magna Carta. Tom ford ? Fuck with me you know I gat it .all these songs are super lame .Kingdom come has Show me what you got , Lost ones .One of Jay's best songs ever .Kingdom come is for high rollers, No lame street shit .

Exactly! When I seen that I had to come to the comments lol

also the r.kelly collab albums by jay-z are far worse

I like it

Kingdom Come was good af. That damn Magna Carta Holy Grail was ass tho! Only like 3 songs on that was good

Fifty shades of grey make many money. How it can be bad?

Have you listened the 'WZRD'? It's such a good album and I'm not even a rock fan.

I forgot to mention that's its from Kid Cudi

@@TheHouseOfGod269 dude i LOVE WZRD holy crap. i used to be bumping that album back in 2021. Love Hard, Efflictim, Upper Room and Teleport 2 Me are so good

​​​@@rjehmb3705I've been keeping 'WZRD' on repeat. The song brake has really grown on me, it's amazing. The interlude, I think The Arrival just gets you hyped for the album. Personally, Upper Room, Dream Time Machine, Live & Learn and Efflictim are my favourites, they just take me to a different world. Speaking of Live & Learn, the ending is just crazy. The album is SUPER underrated.

You know what I change my mind. I just had my second listen of Speedin Bullet 2 Heaven and I loved it. All the songs hit me, I could hear the pain in cudi's voice want what he was going through. The album was a cry for help. Adding context from 'A man named Scott' (his documentary) just really makes this album really special. I love this album now.

Drop the world is the only song i like

The memories with your mother don't matter. We're being objective here, buddy.

It wasn't 100% because it had songs like mosh, mochinbird , like toy soldiers that are 10/10 sings

He really dragged that album for no reason the album is pretty good especially while cruising during the summer
