Aside from all the negativity that was surroundin D for the past 8 years if we just look at this strictly from a musical point of view do you think his 2 albums Brown Sugar and Voodoo are enough 2 qualify him as a legend?
with only 2 album to his name D did more enough imo to earn him himself that status..
He has it all. He can play, he can sing, he can write, he can arrange, he can produce, he can compose, he could do everything.
Brown Sugar is definitely in a class of its own definitely one of the best debut albums. At ten tracks, this album is a perfect length and bears incredible consistency. Higher the last track on the album alone makes it worth every penny..one of my favorite songs ever

I dont consider Biggie or Pun a Legends either for their material . I will say their are legendary figures in Hip Hop because they died but as far as musically I dont think they have enough material. They could have feel off after their last albums . -
I thought that" brown sugar" album was a classic, then musiq soulchild took the style and ran with it on "Ijustwannasing."
I have no idea anymore. but both are personal favs tho -
He did usher in the Neo Soul movement and open up the door for Maxwell, Musiq,etc.
