An album is a collection of recorded songs, it can drop on any format.

And I'm a 90's Hiphop guy too, but I don't think it's fair to just write TI off because he doesn't sound like MF Doom. His sound is commercial, sure, but at his best he's a major league lyricist (although whatever u like is the worst song I've ever heard)

Hmmm, he's definitely not as bad as some of the cats on the radio now (like lil wayne's entire crew), but i wouldn't put him as major league even at his best. If we're talking crazy lyricists of the present, I'd give that title to cats like Celph-Titled, Esoteric, Immortal Tech, Murs, etc... I think they'd rhyme circles around TI (but this is just imo, of course).

Funny you mention Doom too... dudes got crazy lyrics and wordplay. But I liked his delivery a lot more when he was with KMD. He just sounds real monotone and off-beat nowadays.
