When i first bought BOP i loved it. I'm not as keen on it now but i still think its better than V. Atleast lyrically. In all these posts about favorite albums i've noticed BOP near the bottom.

Why do ya'll dislike it?

The album has no identity. Pop in any of their other albums and each track has a sound that jumps out at you as being a part of that album, but BOP seems like a random collection of uninspired, completely generic songs. SFBM may be just as simple and perhaps even more pop, but at least it has a unique sound.

Exactly.
