Exactly how I feel! I like Love-King although for me, that album hasn’t aged very well. The-Dream’s Love vs Money has aged well and is still The-Dream’s masterpiece/best album.
I don’t think it will The The Roots’ How I Got Over because of how ridiculously well-known they are and because of how cheap the current pressing of the album is. With Method Man’s Tical and Knxwledge’s Hud Dreems, I understand why they were picked even though they were readily available too. They are lesser known releases artists/releases and weren’t as acclaimed as How I Got Over.
I think it’s going to be Big Boi’s Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty.
I agree that it won’t be The-Dream. I know it hasn’t been pressed before, but not a lot of people would be interested in Love-King. And I just don’t understand it being picked as a ‘Rap & Hip-Hop’ ROTM.
@radiodead - I know you really want it to be The-Dream and it could be it. Who knows? Maybe Storf genuinely thinks it will be as big as OutKast! But I think there’s pretty much no chance it’s Love-King because it’s an R&B album, and it’s not really an R&B that fits in with VMP’s target audience. Also, it’s an album I can’t see being anywhere as popular as southernplayalisticadilakmusic!
Also, someone mentioned VMP’s strong relationship with Big Boi! I also see this Big Boi release being big, especially if they do the original album art. Shutterbugg is a huge hit and still gets played!
