No way does anyone actually believe Honestly Nevermind is better than Let's Start Here.
I do
Let’s start here is fucking ass
@@samuelcalkins that's crazy
Flights Booked is a masterpiece, the album is great.
album is a good album people hate it because it isnt a rap album. also it was rated very highly by cirtics
Is my video glitched? When Anthony started to defend Honestly, Nevermind, I thought I saw him wearing clown makeup for a second.
Lets start here is soo underrated😫😭
Anthony was actually so spot on in every description and totally had the W opinion in this vid
@@marckofler5599Nahhh, music nerds rated Black Seminole as like the 4th best song of the year so far. Defo not underrated
@@marckofler5599underrated? The album has been getting TONS of praise
Apple pie being called one of the weaker songs has ruined my day
Fr
its my 2nd fav song out of the album also ok alright disrespect will not be tolerated
@@quazorr2963 fr
@@quazorr2963most underrated Travis song. The plan too
W@@austintascher
4 of these are genuinely really good matchups that got me thinking. then theres honestly nevermind vs lets start here and lil yachty wipes the floor with drake
Rodeo smears ALLA fr tho
@@fauxsuede. agreed. Idk anyone who thinks ALLA is even close to Rodeo lmao
Lil Yachty is garbage
@@DonovanGG__ALLA clears 😂. Flying high sucks and ALLA has no skips
@@reallebron236 yeah Flying High does suck I agree. I do think that ALLA is the more consistent album bc Flying High is bad and Wasted is just ok. But the amount of amazing highs that Rodeo has just makes it a significantly better album. But I kinda reverse back on what I said 6 months ago. I could see why you think its better, its not an awful take.
Calling Apple Pie a weaker song is absolutely insane imo. An absolutely amazing track, and everybody ik loves that song
ION WANT YOUR APPLE PIE MAMA 😭😭🎵🎵🎶🎶
Corny asf song. And I have an original hoodie from welcome to the rodeo release lol
ROXANNE TONIGHT 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
@@aka626ratio
@@aka626 DO A BACKFLIP OUT UR WINDOW 😭👍
Rodeo vs AT.LONG.LAST.ASAP is easily the hardest matchup here. Both albums are so unique and have alot of replay value.
rodeo >>>>
@@Jacob-ex2dm at long asap better, not by much but Rocky did his thing.
Alla is rockys worst album easily
both in my top 3 rap albums in terms of how much i listen to them 😭
@@mindworm7689horrible take it's obviously testing and it's not even close
Bro ant is the biggest Drake stan ever 😭😭
hes from Toronto and admitted to being biased at times
I would love to see 2001 vs illmatic since both albums are ant and lucas favorites
@Operation: Heavener nahhhhh
@Operation: Heavener major W
@@JS-sx9ex easily
That will literally ruin their friendship
They would both die for illmatic. It would be hard for either of them to argue against it
During the conversation: 🤬😤
Immediately after: 😅😊
imagine having to defend Honestly Nevermind
they enjoy the album so not hard for them ig
Man will you shut up if they like the album that them music is subjective
Honestly Nevermind is over hated.
@@ypoots6012 They would enjoy listening to drake pissing on a loop for 40 minutes.
@@milkdab6977 I can agree lol, but going up against let's start here it didn't have as much of a chance
I’m going with TLOP over DAMN, and I say this as a bigger Kendrick fan.
On paper DAMN’s concept is more complex, but I think TLOP comes together so well as an album experience. It’s an abstract representation of Kanye West’s mind and the track sequencing follows a perfect stream of consciousness. I’ve always found the album to be a very emotional experience. I like DAMN, but honestly it has more skips than TLOP (despite having less tracks). Production wise TLOP wins quite handily. Kendrick is of course the better MC, but in terms of an overall performance I have to side with how passionate Kanye is on TLOP.
To me DAMN is a great album, while TLOP is an utterly amazing album (my favorite solo album from Kanye).
TLOP is the second most kanye kanye album if yk what i mean. feels like he was really being himself (ye is number one to me)
Nah Damn>TLOP
Better build concepts and storytelling thats why kendrick is the goat
Damn has 0 skips, TLOP has at least 3
TLOP has no skips, also you would expect an album with 20 songs to have more skips than a 14 song album
I love how passionate your discussions are 😂
Honestly just 2 true music fans debating their opinions and they seem the know alot
I would love to see Die Lit vs LUV is Rage 2 in a future instalment of this series if you guys decide to do one
@Operation: Heavener That would also be an interesting matchup
Die lit clears 99.99% of albums
@@tunnell72 L take. Don’t get me wrong it’s really good but 99%? No
Lir2 wins that
@@BACKDOORBROWNIE710bro LIR 2 is so mid 💀
Honestly Nevermind is one of the worst albums to drop last year, comparing to one of the best of 2023 is insane.
honestly nevermind is fucking terrible
By the end of 2023, it dosent end as a top 20 album of the year
Scarring The Hoes better than both by like 500 miles
Worst album last year? One of the worst albums of ALL TIME! bargain store Weekend
@Operation: Heavener this is a hotter take than the sun. Yeah DEFINITELY didn't drop a better album, lonely's album was good but only half was really worth listening too and nudy hasn't dropped a better album. Also redveil didn't even drop an album.
Honestly Nevermind over Let's Start Here is insane
Fr
Not really. Jimmy cooks is better than any Yachty song.
@@MrASAPAB hell nah
@@rahzgoated Yachty sucks lol
@@MrASAPAB even if Jimmy Cooks was better than every song on Yachty’s album (which it’s not), that doesn’t make his whole album better. Come up with a better argument
"I knew you were gonna bring up the pulitzer prize" that was too funny
Yachty's lets start here completely wipes honestly nevermind. The fact he was able to do a 180 on styles like that and make it successful was super impressive and Im going to be listening to it for years to come.
Have you listened to any psych rock before?
@@crazysk8ta123 yes. Big Pink Floyd fan and many of the songs on yachtys album gave me that vibe
VIDEO IDEA: Stack 2 artists discographies against each other and rank their albums, obviously it has to be 2 artists with almost the same number of albums. like Nas vs Jay then make a combined list of album rankings
I need this
Thats fire
Outkast vs Kendrick
Discographyvise nas doesnt have shit on hov
@@-Scrapper- illmatic? Magic? All 3 kings deasies?
It’s frustrating and uncomfortable when they fight but so entertaining ! Love these videos ! Waited all week for free time to watch it
“Let’s keep it civil”
First minute “I knew you were gonna bring up the fxxkin Pulitzer prize”
No way Lou dissed L$D💀💀💀 U can’t tell me that beat drop doesn’t make you float
I will never forgive Ant for saying Apple Pie was one of the weaker tracks on Rodeo
Fr bro
Rodeo is so much better😂
Facts ant had a hard job
Both brought valid arguments, but seriously why they arguing 😂🤣
it's free smoke, they have to take sides as it's a debate series. they're not just discussing which is better they pick sides beforehand and debate it
@@d1queer i love free smoke
What a queef off🔥🔥
my picks are as follows
TLOP
let's start here
heroes n villains
igor
rodeo (extremely close both albums are masterpieces)
@@russo9474 no lmao
No misses here
Lmao rodeo is far better than anything rocky has ever done. Comparing one of the greatest albums in history a generic proj is wild
@@slattslattslatt you highkey meat riding rodeo rn my boy, it's amazing and so is ALLA
@@d1queer both are good. it's just that rodeo is in another tier of its own. there's a reason kanye considers travis his equal. the only projects that aren't above rockys discog are owl pharaoh and dbr. Rodeo, bittsm and astro are objectively perfect and house some of the greatest pieces of music in history. comparing rocky to travis is like comparing rocky to kanye or cudi, it's insane considering those 3 are so far above rocky in every way possible. rocky is great but his music lacks the depth, complexity, production, story telling, theme, etc that travis has. literally the worst track in rodeo is better than anything rocky has done. it's not meat riding at all when the greatest artists in history show more respect to travis than they ever will to rocky
Ngl I like TLOP more than DAMN
kendrick lamar is my favorite rapper but i do like TLOP more than DAMN. DAMN is my least favorite kendrick album, i just feel like its TOO depressive lol its such a drag to listen to it completely
@@alejandromarmolejo13 if Kanye didn't fix TLOP, it would be a lot worse than DAMN.
My Picks based on what they talked about but also my personal opinion:
- Life of Pablo
- Let’s start here
- NAHWC
- Igor
- ALLA
Life of Pablo changed my life and made me the biggest Ye fan. When DAMN came out I loved it but not as much. But the more I got older and grew with the albums. Bro Damn is just a whole another level. A lot of it goes over peoples head but I can’t blame ppl because not everyone can relate or understand the lyrics. I thinks it gets overlooked cuz it has a “mainstream sound” But man the structure of that album is crazy. I wish I could explain this more but I be writing a whole essay lol
can say the same about TLOP. the “which one” concept is executed so well throughout the entire album by being conveyed so well through both the beats and rapping by ye. FSMHP1 conveys both sides of kanye perfectly, with different beats that separate the shocking bleached asshole bars (meant to represent the rap and fame life) with the “i wanna wake up with you” chorus representing the family-oriented, gospel life. this is just one song, not even getting into the manic and creative beat on something like feedback or the amazing rapping on saint pablo. i could also write an entire essay on this album, for me the creative genius of kanye stands out with this album and it’s in his top 2 or 3. i think damn has some great performances, and is an interesting concept but to me it’s not even a competition, TLOP is revolutionary and so much more creative and imo just the better album
Tlop is far better.
I think it would’ve been more interesting to hear an Igor vs Flower Boy discussion. The album that set him back on the map vs the album that made him take a huge risk making
Pablo clears
Absolutely love the chemistry between yous two, keep it up boys
they always beefin 😭
straight out the gate I'm saying Life of Pablo. Love DAMN though, good match up
Yeah Pablo for me to .easy
Agreed. Lu made a good point bout Humble being slammed between to slower paced tracks, which myself also found distracting and still to this day. TLOP has better production, has so many different sounding songs and themed songs, and doesn’t have a low song imo while DAMN has 2-3 weak links.

Did a good job representing our boy Pablo! Album is underrated af
Pablo top 3 Ye for me I think apart from graduation it’s got the highest highs of any Ye album
@@carrotgod850 shit it’s my number one as far as favorite.
@@shawnyinger1757 Same for me, my favourite Kanye album, at least for now, as I listened to all Kanye albums only once
@@prorokdc I mean his actual best quality album is dark fantasy but my favorite is Pablo 4sure . With dropout a close 3rd
@@prorokdc oh damn only once . Man they just keep getting better and better . Give ‘em all time and they do age with you really well .
I'm liking this series only thing id add is a moderator or something so you guys both get equal time to make your points.
My picks DAMN, Let's Start Here, Heroes and Villains, Igor, and ALLA
Enjoying this series
Defiantly do this again this was really good
The beef is so hilarious I love this dynamic with moments like 19:19 lmaooo
I dont even listen to half the music you guys debate about on this channel, but i do love hearing how passionate you get about it lol
Debating Honestly Nevermind is crazy 😭😭
DAMN is probably one of my favorite albums of all time.
Really
It’s alright
I can see why. It’s a very interesting listen. If God and Yah were removed, it would be near perfect
@@peamut547 I love God 😂😭 also love Yah too
@@AGETheGawdYT Nahhh. God is a fine song but Yah is so miiid.
Props to Anthony for seriously doing his best to defend “Honestly, Nevermind”, that album was painful to go through lol
VIDEO IDEA: album tournament designated to a specific rapper like kanye, jayz, nas eminem it has to be a rapper with multiple albums to do a bracket
the thing is is with some artists, there albums are oftenly quite obvious better albums
Anthony saying “No” n whispering in the background errytime Luca talked was hilarious 😂
Watching y’all get heated at each other will always be entertaining 😂
Ik Luca fav carti album is self titled and Ant is die lit. I’d love to see an a free smoke on those two albums considering they two different types of carti. Would be very interesting
self titled sweeps
To say apple pie isn't top rodeo is absurd 😂
i mean it's not better than 90210, nightcrawler, pray 4 love, pornography, or Maria i'm drunk
Dear Maria is top 5 Travis Scott
Rodeo is just superior
Damn is really underrated in the industry.
The thing of the double album that kendrick do is extremely innovative and brilliant, cause there are literally two albums in damn and you decide if kendrick lives or die, and that's incredible
stop that cap, DAMN is not underrated at all, it literally is the only rap album to ever win a Pulitzer
@@hedidit55 underrated in the community
Damn is not underrated at all. Its highly rated amongst fans and critics and was a huge commercial success.
literally most overrated kdot album
It’s not underrated it’s just that he has 2 albums that most would agree are two of the best the genre has ever seen
bro i was dying when they were yelling at eachother at tlop vs damn🤣
fav series is back lets goooooooo
I love when they get mad at each other it’s so funny and shows how good of a relationship they have
Luv is Rage 2 vs WLR, Jeffery vs Savage Mode 2, My Turn vs Please Excuse Me For Being Antisocial, JACKBOYS vs Super Slimey, After Hours vs Dawn FM, beerbongs & bentleys vs Stoney
Having listened to all of these albums and hearing your arguments, I can confidently say that The Big Day clears.
Some matchups for future Episodes:
- Ready to Die vs All eyez on me
- Get Rich or die Tryin vs The College Dropout
- Madvillainy vs 36 Chambers
- Death Certificate vs Supreme Clientele
- Whole Lotta Red vs Eternal Atake
Bro how long did you take thinking of these like these are the hardest matchups ever.
@@Hyrule-Maniac Ready to die, College dropout, Madvillainy, Supreme clientele, Whole lotta red. But I just chose some of my favourite albums
I love these so much
Luca likes synths and Ant likes Rapping. That's the whole video.
Facts lool
Lou was a big W in this one. He picked the better album in every round
Except maybe n.a.h.w.c
Please do a vs with more underground albums
My fav segment 👏🏻👏🏻
Lil Yachty’s a credited producer on most of that album and he is a pretty credible producer on his own. so i feel like he makes this album a real experience. there’s hundreds of notable artists in history who sing better than yachty but with the vocal effects i think it makes him a lot more interesting. especially in the sound scope of the entire album with added experienced features it makes Lets Start Here a really good album.
We need Illmatic vs 2001
Easy Illmatic W
2001 better
@@styleformen7535 Illmatic is levels above. Way more compact, and the lyricism and the story-telling is superior.
about equal tbh
@@StalinNation not the production tho
I've been listening to let's start here a couple times a week since it dropped
amazing video but the way the albums are placed on the screen in comparison to you guys got me confused
let’s start here vs. honestly, nevermind is such a fucking ridiculous comparison
yachty wipes so hard
Aight let me say who wins each round
TLOP
LSH(easily)
HAV
Igor
Rodeo
5 for 5
@@d1queer 👍
They both made really good points for Honestly Nevermind vs Let's Start Here but I prefer LSH at the end of the day
Only built for Cuban Linx vs Liquid Swords would be a heated one fs
This convo definitely got heated 😂🔥🔥 with TLOP and DAMN and I loved It great work NFR
You need to do more 90’s albums
They don't do older albums. The real classics
I honestly think both made really good points about honestly nevermind and lets start here, but honestly nevermind is by far weaker
1. the footer should have the album being defended by the person on the left (lu) on the left and the album being defended by the person on the right (ant) on the right as seen on igor vs cmiygl. for consistency and lack of confusion on who's defending who. 2. DO NOT HAVE THE IPHONE TIMER GO OFF LOUD AF IN VIDEOS NEXT TIME PLSSSS IT IS SO ANNOYING 3. wilshire is pronounded will/sure. LA here. 4. great video guys!!! :) wouldn't mind album free smoke section being 8 mins.
Let’s start here is a god damn banger 🔥🔥🔥🔥 absolutely fire ❤
WE NEED MORE
Stop using the alarm clock sound bro that shit got me trippin out lmao😂
i think the full episodes should be given to one debate, after every round i basically decided who won based on which album i preferred already, because there was no time for an actual persuasive argument that could sway my mind to the album i enjoyed less originally
LOVE the free smoke album debates… 5 in 1 today 😍
Okay I just had to say, was there actually a competition between Let’s Start Here and Honestly Nevermind?
Free smoke is back let's go can't wait for the twitch live stream later
Here are my picks:
DAMN
Let’s Start Here
Heroes & Villains
Igor
Rodeo
Apple pie being called a bad song is something I never thought I would’ve heard from a human being’s mouth
1. Damn vs the life of Pablo is a tough one. Love both of these album , but i choose TLOB. Kendrick albums always make me sad, dont know why. TLOB on the other hand is for me the best Kanyes album. Repepetive value on this is crazy.
2. Honestly Nevermind vs Lets start here. This is actually easy. Lets start here for sure. Really solid album. Songs like reach the sunshine, the black seminole or pretty are crazy. Leftovers no skip though. Honestly nevermind is literally bad album. 95% songs are skips. Only Jimmy Cooks is good song from this.
3. NAHWC vs Heroes & villain. For sure heroes & villains. Just a lot of great songs. Cool concept. Cool transitions. Not all heroes wear capes.... Ahhhh I tried to convince myself to this album so many Times. I cant even go through it and listen to the whole project. Its just a boring album for me.
4. Igor vs call me if you get lost. Love both of these but slightly prefer CMIYGL. Especcialy the estate sale.
5. At. Long. Last. ASAP vs Rodeo. Both classic. But Rocky album is just a good album for me. Cool to listen but not amazing. Overall rocky for me is great, but not a TOP tier. Now Rodeo. Just crazy. No skips. Solid tracklist. Songs like 90210, nightcawler, 3500 omg. For sure trav takes the W in this one.
AYYYYYY ITS BACK
Wish you guys had more time to speak on each album seems like everything was crammed, still great though
The passion+music knowledge just comes through and makes all the content is so spectacular! 🙏🏼🔥
My picks:
DAMN.
Let's Start Here.
Heroes and Villains
IGOR
Rodeo
Lou won every round to me lol but rodea and A.L.L.A is extremely close. both tyler albums are pretty close too. good vid guys!!
I’ve seen you guys on UA-cam shorts for the longest so I decided to Watch a full show and this rules. Really love how heated you guys get I hope one day it get physical and you murder eachother with swords
“ let’s keep it a little more civil “
- Famous Last Words
Life of Pablo Better
I truly think cmiygl is better then igor and im so glad you guys brought it up. Not to mention the new deluxe that was amazing, and inside it is probably tyler's best song sorry not sorry its like kanye's runaway just perfect
those alarms scared the shit out of me every time hahaha
Luca and Anthony hello, im a new subscriber from Greece, i was previously watching your video on the top 10 verses of 2022, and after seeing Luca including cole's verse on london, i wanted to ask: As things stand so far in 2023, would you put J Cole's verse on 'on the street' on the top 10?because i find it a freaking awesome verse but I don't see it spoken that much. Keep up the good work guys!
DAMN. easily
Idk if I’d say easily but yes
Last time I checked damn never had father stretch hands
Pablo easy
@@rogue9230 facts it has better songs. XXX, duckworth, pride, DNA, fear, feel>>>>>
@@Wavy-fs4mr saint Pablo wipes them all as it still restraints with Kanye's story and the broader world
TLOP, Let's start here, Heroes and villains, Igor, Rodeo
Bruh the whole point of humble being in between lust and love is to create a contrast
I LOVE when these two debate
Lu advocated perfectly for let’s start here, it doesn’t matter if he wasn’t the main focus of a song in order to make an actual great song, that should be common sense, at the end of the day those songs are within lil yachty catalog no one else’s, which means he doesn’t have to cover up every single minute of the album especially if he knows it won’t push him forward to put out an actual good track, sometimes the song structure is more important than a solo artist performance when just making A GOOD SONG
damn, lets start here, H&V, CMIYGL, & asap
Bruh hot take:these guys are beefing for real at this point. Huge fallout between them coming 2024! Can’t wait for the boxing match 🙏🏼
Ant might have some of the worst takes I’ve ever heard, apple pie is a bad song?
