I was inspired by the Resonable Doubt contest by @Michael , and I thought it'd be fun to start a series about it. Think about the hundreds of albums that have changed the game and the landscape of hip-hop. The contest will be quite simple
Each week, there will be one album that is chosen to be appreciated. Users have to make an annotation about a certain lyric and/or song that they appreciate and why. Do you like the wordplay? Can you connect with it? Is it a fun line? These are the kinds of things I'll be looking for. At the end of each week (Sunday till Friday, yes I know it's 6 days), the contest will end and I will review each one. The top 5 will receive points
First place - 3
Second place - 2
Third place 1.5
Fourth place - 1
Fifth place - 0.5
In order for you to compete in this, you must upload your page with the lyric/song that's annotated to this album:
The album today you all have to appreciate is known as The College Dropout by Kanye West. Considered to be groundbreaking and soundchanging, I highly suggest you take your time, as there are so many different songs to choose from! Good luck everybody
