if you look at Death Grips as a rap group and nothing else it makes sense to say its one of their weakest, but its always had the strongest vibe to me, feels nostalgic and surreal at times with production that almost feels like an early 3d videogame soundtrack that you'd make up in a dream with its minimalistic synth production and looping composition that goes in circle.

People acting surprised that he didn't talk smack on Kanye when dude has actually given Ye alot of praise over the years, He's openly stated he loves Kanye's first 3 albums, That TCD is a 10 and one of the greatest albums of all time, He's given tons of praise to TLOP and Ye, And he gave KSG a 10 as well. Not only has Ye been acting a fool past few years but his music quality has fallen off quite a bit, Donda & Vultures were ok but sound so bland and boring compared to some of his earlier work which still manages to sound fresh to this day.

The issue isn't really that tbh and I'm not just speaking on the Kanye situation. For a couple years or so, Melon has become increasingly politically charged and he, at times, lets that COMPLETELY cloud his judgement and acts very immaturely and biased. It's come to a point where it's simply annoying and obnoxious. If you've watched the full reaction to the Vultures album, there's nothing normal about the way Anthony was acting throughout that review. He came with a preconceived mindset to simply hate on the album no matter what and that's apparent. He was legit acting very fake, obnoxious and exaggerating like 3/4 of the video. I know many Kanye fans are stupid and sheep-like btw but the way Melon gatekeeps opinions on his (and many other's) music by saying 'iF yOU LikE tHiS You'rE A moRoN' yada yada is like.... C'mon. He was never like this before and I've been watching him since I was a kid. Anyways, I could go on and on but I know one simply gets called a Kanye 'mEatRideR' or smth else if you criticise Melon even a little.

@@patrick13183no chance
I mean, dude has zero golden era albums on the list, which says enough about his knowledge. Illmatic is close, like Wu but just insane to not include anything early
government plates at number 1 is crazy fantano
That’s the best DG album

if you look at Death Grips as a rap group and nothing else it makes sense to say its one of their weakest, but its always had the strongest vibe to me, feels nostalgic and surreal at times with production that almost feels like an early 3d videogame soundtrack that you'd make up in a dream with its minimalistic synth production and looping composition that goes in circle.
Finally liquid swords getting the love it deserves
Agreed. The beat dropping on the opener gets me hype every time no matter how many times I listen to it.
“When I was little…”
Bro have you seen its RYM score?
I think OB4CL is better personally, but Liquid Swords is definitely one of the best of all time!
@polarbearswag7342 liquid swords is more concise, but OB4CL has higher highs. I constantly flip flop with which I like more
Ready To Die and Illmatic landmark rap records. Also, The Blueprint.
The Blueprint ain't even the best Jay album tho
Nah no blueprint but reasonable doubt no question!!
@@bernabefernandeztouceda7315 The Blueprint made a bigger impact. Reasonable Doubt might be slightly better in terms lyrical content though admittedly.
@@zachreeder8902 it's a flawless record in production and lyrics. It's arguably his best. Never gets old. Never leaves my car.
All Eyez on Me
People acting surprised that he didn't talk smack on Kanye when dude has actually given Ye alot of praise over the years, He's openly stated he loves Kanye's first 3 albums, That TCD is a 10 and one of the greatest albums of all time, He's given tons of praise to TLOP and Ye, And he gave KSG a 10 as well. Not only has Ye been acting a fool past few years but his music quality has fallen off quite a bit, Donda & Vultures were ok but sound so bland and boring compared to some of his earlier work which still manages to sound fresh to this day.
also he made Donda a 7, like some kanye meatriders dont do that, so the critism that he hates kanye is so false
He’s dropped the 10 from KSG because he hates ye
Lol crazy cuz melon basically always mentions "btw I actually love and do not deny the merits of old kanye" any time new kanye comes up
The issue isn't really that tbh and I'm not just speaking on the Kanye situation. For a couple years or so, Melon has become increasingly politically charged and he, at times, lets that COMPLETELY cloud his judgement and acts very immaturely and biased. It's come to a point where it's simply annoying and obnoxious. If you've watched the full reaction to the Vultures album, there's nothing normal about the way Anthony was acting throughout that review. He came with a preconceived mindset to simply hate on the album no matter what and that's apparent. He was legit acting very fake, obnoxious and exaggerating like 3/4 of the video. I know many Kanye fans are stupid and sheep-like btw but the way Melon gatekeeps opinions on his (and many other's) music by saying 'iF yOU LikE tHiS You'rE A moRoN' yada yada is like.... C'mon. He was never like this before and I've been watching him since I was a kid. Anyways, I could go on and on but I know one simply gets called a Kanye 'mEatRideR' or smth else if you criticise Melon even a little.
@@mohash21 Even the choice to be "apolitical" is a political choice. There is no way to check your perspective at the door when giving critical feedback. This take is a double nothing burger with nothing sauce with a side of curly nothing and a nothing cola
No Nas Illmatic? The Disrespect💀
Yeah but I’m sick of people thinking they need the critically acclaimed things in their list if they don’t have it there then it’s their opinion it’s not a requirement to have anything there
"The disrespect" me when somebody had a different top 10 than mine
Opinions are a thing?
Cause it’s boring as hell. It’s the typa shit 14 year olds listen to.
@@Brunothegekoman it is called a comment, it ain't that deep. ALSO, it is his opinion to say "No Nas Illmatic?" and he has free will to do so.

Cloud trill and trap godfather
Liquid Swords is my favourite hip hop album ever as well
I am legitimately shocked that melon didn’t say Kanye was a bad person when he was being discussed. And I’m even more shocked that this list is ACTUALLY GOOD.
yeah because the album is actually good

Bros never listened to doom
not fun list
I agree with this entire list but I'd rearrange it a bit, and replace RTD with OFFLINE by jpegmafia and MMLP with MADVILLAINY by madvillain. Also that's chronic 2001 right? Fire list overall.
@@epikmeme4568 I’m actually a huge DOOM fan (ALL CAPS). I just felt all in all he’s kind of an acquired taste to many. The average listener doesn’t know who DOOM. It’s a tough one but I had to take many things into account.

@@Ozdestro JIK is great but it doesn't make top 10; I think Vultures is 10th.

Fantano with the MX-80 Sound Vinyl!
I’d rank Madvillany higher and tpab a little lower but that list is pretty good
Good music reviewer, but we can't be reviewing the same albums over and over. Would like to see you expanding, listening to genres all over the world fam, you've got that potential of being that big...but other than that, you solid bro
Melt my eyez see your future and Melodic blue deserve a spot
I see you Fantano rocking the Faith by the Cure vinyl in the background
no hov or nas is kind of crazy, but these are actually still respectable picks. solid list with some unique selections

same
Not every single person's list is supposed to have Illmatic, grow up
@@grandmaster5183 cry about it
@@bianesas you couldn't have revealed your mental age better with that dry ass reply
Reasonable Doubt, Blue Print, All Eyes on Me, Gods Son all have strong cases to be made but aren’t terrible to leave off. However MMLP, Illmatic, Ready to Die, 2001 all need to be mentioned in any top 10 album list for me to take it seriously (even an honorable mention would work)
God’s Son is mid in my opinion, but everything else is fine
I think you have to appreciate a good top ten list if you think at least 7-8 picks are justified...even if there are, in your opinion, glaring omissions. For me I'd add some Tribe, Death Grips and Danny Brown but it's still really solid.
No Illmatic tho?
Think the biggest slights are Pinata in a top 10 over one and /or over (or both?) or either Low End Theory (tribe) or Blueprint (JZ)
nah pinata is a top 10
Liquid Swords was a dope album. That was on heavy rotation when I was a kid. Surprised Me Against the World and Ready To Die didn’t get any love
Vultures 1 is should be in the number 1 spot, but the rest of the list is fine.

Swap live love asap with long live or at long last and this is a perfect list to me
Where is Chronic 2001, Illmatic, Get rich or die trying?
These lists always missing Deltron 3030 which is easily in my top 5. But W list regardless!
Has Fantano covered Coast Contra at all?
What name is the background music? dude
Aye my ass got got I thought he was gon have illmatic up there. List is actually heat tho
Move everything down one and put manic in first and then move madvillainy up to third and that list is perfect
I’ve never heard Fantano being this positive about music before, damn
What did you add to this
Putting Pinata #3 gave him some street cred, other than that it was all safe picks.
Man On the Moon by Kid Cudi is a worthy mention in that list.
True, it's sad he didn't mention it cuz he's too cool putting up Kendrick Lamar's lyrical miracle poems in the top 10

(HIP HOP albums for me) 1. Lauryn Hill TPAB Illmatic Madvillainy Endtroducing... 36 Chambers 8. Donuts and then past that, i can't really decide, but here's some HOs. Black On Both Sides, Low End Theory, Ready To Die, Liquid Swords, Things Fall Apart. Think that's my list rn
Was so ready for Total Xanarchy being #1 as a troll.
I was praying for a troll pick at number 1, but solid list ig
All of the albums on the list are great but Illmatic should be there imo
Not including the Marshall Mathers LP or The Eminem Show is an unforgivable crime.
That number 1 pick is GOATed
few things id change, illmatic at 2, tpab at 1, black on both sides for rodeo, liquid swords instead of college dropout
piniata being that high was really left field but this guy was cookin
Who’s list is this? It’s cool
Of course putting Sexyy Red at #1 is something Fantano would agree with 😊
Take off the bottom two and Freddy Gibbs, scoot the rest down, and put up top It Was Written, Black Star, and It Takes a Nation to Hold Us Back.
Illmatic and Life After Death are solid top 2 IMO
Ain’t no way we’re putting rodeo over alblums like illmatic 2001 and MMLP
Rodeo, Long Live Asap and Pinata should not be on this list. You can't seriously say those albums are even remotely as good as classics like Illmatic, Ready to Die,The Low End Theory, MBDTF, miseducation of Lauryn Hill, Marshall Mathers LP, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx, Reasonable Doubt, The Infamous and so many others. I get that music taste is subjective but this is just ridiculous. Worst thing is that Fantano, who's suppose to be a professional music critic, is actually agreeing.
you tripping, all these albums deserved. Especially Piñata that album is legit almost flawless
Pinata is pretty fucking damn near perfect, even if it shouldn't be on a top 10 of all time
Rodeo is crazy influential.
@@Ilikefeatherymangoes Just because it's influential does not mean it's a top 10 album of all time. Also, there are far more influential albums that are not on this list like Paid in Full, The Chronic and It Takes A Nation of Millions.
@@Skrogansauce I'm not saying it's a bad album, it's just not a top 10 album like you said.
Notable absences from the Golden Era. No Gang-Starr, Tribe, PE, Nas, etc. Still a great list mind.
The big day at number 1 is a crazy pick.
I know Melon is a fan of the Heist by Macklemore but I don’t think it belongs in a top 10 imho
The one time Fantano covers a list with only bangers I was so expecting some wild card like Cardi B 💀
I like this list. It's mostly valid but I feel like liquid swords and college drop out should maybe be left out. and illmatic HAS to be in their come on!
You know a list is valid when it doesn't have the Marshal Mathers LP, I'm sick of seeing this album (which is ems best work) be compared to such historical albums that alone makes it a w
TC2-TC3 are two of the greatest albums of all time
Idk about ten but I have the top 3 easily. I think 3 is gonna have to be vulture 1, 2 is probably vultures 1 and 1 is definitely vultures 1 I think.
I want to listen to good old hip-hop stuff, lyrical stuff.... Can anyone suggest good artists and albums...
For east coast i would recommend: Mobb Deep, Wu-tang clan and the members solo projects ,The roots, A tribe called quest, Biggie, Eric B. & Rakim, Big L, Big Pun, Jay-z and Nas. Album wise i would recommend you to start with either illmatic, enter the wu-tang, The infamous or The low end theory. These are arguably the most important east coast hip-hop record of the 90s, so will make a good starting point on your journey. Hope you enjoy :)
beastie boys theyre white but they were VERY important.. check out my beats
Were is vultures 1?
College Dropout is a W but for me. His best work is Dark Fantasy🔥
Don't agree with the order but indeed not a single miss.

This is probably just a different order of my top ten
every album he picked is great but illmatic has to be on the list
missing a few big ones (Chronic, Illmatic, BOBS etc) but good list full of big W's
Gibbs of Nas was a flavorful choice for sure
if ksg is 10 and college dropout is the best shouldnt it be a 10? i think it wasnt included in 2000s tens list
Except Ksg is not a 10
This was a very agreeable list tbh so the Ws rlly dont mean that much
No i think it was a pretty unique list with good but unexpected takes, sure an obvious Kenny here and there and some wu-tang and all but how many people actually forego Biggie, Nas, and countless other classics to include newer picks like Rocky and Travis?
