OMG DUKEY!!!
That would be life-changing for both of us! It’ll be another record to add to our mosh pitting collection!
I really hope we get Die Lit!

the only issue with my die lit guess is that means that april has to be a rap debut with 8 tracks
which i CAN work if with a but of a loophole
yeah its an EP but its almost 30 minutes long (i can count that as considered an album)
and its TECHNICALLY a debut..... its the first album they had under the bone thugz name (they did have an album but under a different name)
BUUUT this is very unlikely.. not JUST because of the loopholes but also because it was an RSD album last year

I'd really like this choice, but Die Lit is a 2nd record with 19 tracks. It doesn't match either month.

Debut album
The self titled project is a mixtape
(You all were mentioning asap rocky and longliveasap came after live love so I consider it valid)

Ye I don't consider it valid since the debut mixtape is on the same label as the debut record, but they like to build hints around these technicalities so

What matters to VMP is what wikipedia says, and wikipedia says it is the debut album. I agree that the distinction between mixtape and album can be very blurred.Ye I don't consider it valid since the debut mixtape is on the same label as the debut record, but they like to build hints around these technicalities so

I love how we go from countless to 5 or so examples over decades and multiple genres being thrown out...

Storf said on Twitter somebody correctly guessed May RHH but was then flatly dismissed by everyone else. I’m too lazy to read through the VMP Twitter replies and Reddit to narrow it down though.

All critically acclaimed, "classic," underground or non-pop music fits that description. I was referring to multiple decades and genres when I said countless. If you thought I meant countless alt rap albums in 2012, you misunderstood me. For your statement that no classics get overlooked (by the vast majority of people) to be true then all the best music would be pop, which is ridiculous in my opinion. I'm not interested in listing a sufficient number of examples to convince you this is true.
It is completely subjective of course. If you are the kind of person who doesn't think anything is great or classic unless it was in the top 10 charts, that's cool, we are very different types of music fans and there's nothing wrong with that.

Did you expect a list every occurrence? People providing examples to better illustrate their point does not preclude other multiple other examples from existing. Your argument was essentially that their is no such thing as an under appreciated classic. Retorts were provided. Genre shouldn’t matter in this discussion as examples could be found across multiple genres.
Let’s just say you are not a fan of VMP’s curation. Which is good to know, you can put your money elsewhere, procuring albums that you deem as “Classic”. Nathan’s hyperbolic statements aside, gauging from the threads replies you position is debatable.

If this means that you are saying that you aren't that type of music fan, then your position on classics is very confusing and unclear as you seem to be arguing against everyone saying that underground/underappreciated classics are relatively common throughout music history.

Ok so I guess I'm only slightly lazy and looked around a bit. Didn't see anything on Twitter, and on Reddit someone pooh-poohed it being Edan's Primitive Plus because of a recent-ish Rough Trade exclusive. But that's really all that stood out for me.
Oh wait! Someone suggested YBN Cordae's The Lost Boys and everyone shot it down immediately by saying they misread the clues. What if the reason we haven't gotten RHH figured out is that the guesser was actually right all along and the "8, 19, 20" clue really does mean year (2008, 2019, 2020).

i did mention that i guessed die lit and no one noticed so could that be called flatly dismissed?
and that could mean...

that is really awkward... it COULD work (since only later 90s to 2020s would be counted so you can remove the 19 and 20 and be understood) but its just a very stupid way to do a clueOh wait!

Wait no this couldn't work
Because they didn't do this for country.. there is no consistency
They did all 4 numbers of each for the country albums even though we would know what 73, 14, and 63 would mean (country didn't start until the 20s and they are not going to compile a bunch of rare 78s.. though Washington Phillips or something could be impressive)
It has to be track list or year difference

and in the end we all get angry with everyone saying "fuck guess they got me back in" or "VMP sucks fuck storf etc etc".... and also often bothVMP guessing games are so fun. Not only do you have to guess the pick from the clues, but you also have to guess how theyessed up the clues and make things fit as well
tbh i find this new social media hint giver even more annoying because storf at least gave the clues.. this new person teases too much and made us wait 10 days before we had an idea
