I've decided that "The Love Below" is the greatest album of all time.
Am I going to present an argument? No. But that's what I think.

John Legend's album beats it though IMO |

I am just here to point out that John Legend's album is spectacular for it's genre.

John Legend is pretty great from what I've heard, but "The Love Below" just transcended genres like 'whoa'. I think a wider variety of people can appreciate it.

"The Love Below" trumps "Revolver", I'm sorry. I actually own both of those, though.

In terms of conceptual hip hop, it's a great album. But I wouldn't say it's the greatest album of all time. Not even the best hip hop album of all time.

I wouldn't even really call it a hip hop album, really. I don't know what I would call it, but not hip hop.

Other than the llast song, he only spit one verse on the whole album..
Classifying music is gay anyway.. |

Yeah, what Kris P said.
That last song is the shit, though. "A Life in the Day of Andre Benjamin". I think I'll listen to that RIGHT NOW. |

Canibus- Rip The Jacker. Best rap album ever made.
RJD2- Deadringer. Best instrumental album ever made (w/ some rap). That's all that there needs to be said. |

if you want to talk hip-hop albums....
then Common's "Be" destroys everything. and on a second note... Outkast beating the Beatles? not on this fucking planet. |
