Skits are fine but they need to be on a separate track. TDE has the shittiest album formatting I've ever seen. These Days, Oxymoron, 90059, and TPaB were all victims of this poo poo, either 2 songs on one track or skits in the beginning/middle/end of a song, or having to hear "I remember you was conflicted..." every other track. Both Summertime '06 and Tetsuo & Youth stood out for being well put together albums, both in content and presentation.

I don't know what TDE has on Kendrick, Ab and Jay but they seem like the shittiest management in the rap game right now.

I did not get into hip-hop until the mid-2000s and thus my exposure to earlier hip-hop has been more in individual tracks than in full albums.

Man I'm only 23. Classics are the classics for a reason. If it was like Grandmaster Flash I'd understand but how do you avoid Biggie?

Bronson calling himself the image of sex on Baby Blue is the most unnerving line of 2015.

Avoid is a strong term. Haven't gotten around to? Never really thought about it?

I like metal too but I don't go back and listen to all of Judas Priest's albums that came out when I a kid.

I did. It's an important frame of reference. I'm sure we all have embarrassing albums that we've never listened (I'm the guy who's never listened to The Chronic) to but Ready to Die (and at least a couple of Priest albums) are way up there.

Also hip-hop was a thing for 15 years before that album. That's like calling Led Zeppelin early rock and roll.

earlier as in before I started listening to the genre actively, not early. I'm well aware of how far back these things go.
