Am I wrong for thinking the first artist to have 3 5-Mic albums will be.....

[the gangsta m crisis]

Jay-Z?

From my research a number of artists have 2 5 mic albums:

Jay-Z
Nas
Run DMC
Scarface
2PAc
Ice Cube
A Tribe Called Quest
Dr. Dre
Notorious B.I.G.
Boogie Down Productions

But nobody has 3. The only one who's come close is Ice Cube, but to me, his effort with NWA doesn't count because it was a group album, not SOLO.
Even if Blueprint 3 isn't 5-Mic worthy, Jay has already proved that he is still capable of producing superior material no matter his age, and you can betwith that Live Nation deal, he's gonna push out a few more joints.

Discuss.

Yes, you are wrong.

The answer is Lil' Kim.

She definitely has two more classic albums in her. The naked truth was too fire.

jay already does:

reasonable doubt
blueprint
black album

ATCQ, I have NO idea how MM got only 4 mics.
That is a 5 mic album.

Illmatic
IWW
Stillmatic

RD
Blueprint
Black Album

For me, AG and Untitled are both 4.5 mics

 

[jomitm]

5 mics from what? are you specifically sayin from The Source? or 5 mics as in classic in people's eyes?

.......................

outkast should've already had this, imo.
as for jay, TBA or AG would later be bumped to 5 just like how rd did...
that's how i see it. i prefer AG though...but that's me.

If by classic albums, you mean penises, then yes, you're correct.

But chances are, when Detox drops in 2022, it's gonna be a '5 Mic' type album... So Dre'll have three.

even though I was slowly waiting for someone to say something like this... it still amazed me

 

[jayjay414]

Idk didn't kingdom Come get like 4.5 in the source...hahaha...that was funny to me but TBA got 4...

 

[worldbeefreeg]

There is a problem if someone thought I was serious.

 

[t i c a l]

Outkast should've already had it done, too bad the Source sucks.

- Tical.

UNCALLED FOR But I was goin to say do u really want to know how she got those 5 mics

 

[rocyaice]

There's already dudes out there who have 3 5 mic albums in my book and Jay-Z is one of them. Now if you're talking about the garbage Source magazinesrating system than I guess. But in my IMO, Ghostface has done it, Beans has done it, Scarface has done it, Jay and Outkast all have done it. And I sort of wantto put Kanye in there too but Graduation just dropped so i'm gonna let that album breathe for a bit.

 

[Bonafide]

em should have 3

Yup, I know what she really did to get the 5, cause that had to be the biggest bull***** rating I ever seen in history.

 

[dmbrhs]

The Source is a joke, so I hope you're not basing this off their ratings.

 

[kflows503]

The Slim Shady LP, The Marshall Mathers LP, The Eminem Show are all classics.

Illmatic, It was written, Stillmatic, and lost tapes if that counts
