2020s Rap Albums That Deserve 5 MICS?
In this superchat conversation we tackle a question that cuts right to the heart of hip hop culture. One of our viewers asked if any albums from the 2020s so far truly deserve the legendary 5 Mics stamp that The Source Magazine used to hand out. For those who remember, 5 Mics wasn’t just a rating, it was a badge of honor that represented the highest level of artistry, cultural impact, and replay value an album could have. Only a handful of projects in hip hop history ever earned that status and they are still debated to this day.
So what about the 2020s. With so much music dropping every week and the way hip hop has shifted in sound, style, and accessibility, does the 5 Mics standard still even apply. We go back and forth on the albums that stood out to us in this new decade, the projects that felt like instant classics, and what it actually takes for an album today to live up to that historical benchmark. From mainstream releases to underground gems, we break down which records have the potential to be remembered as elite contributions to the culture.
Join the discussion and drop your thoughts in the comments. Which hip hop albums from the 2020s would you put in that 5 Mic category. Which ones feel like they’ll stand the test of time. We want to know what you consider classic level material in this era.
