Anyone in the Hip Hop business will tell you from old to new school, that Illmatic is one of the bext albums ever made.

Illmatic > anything from the west minus pac
sorry but if your a hip hop head you will agree illmatic has to be in the top 3 best albums.....illmatic was nas's prime album
Tupac is not my favorite rapper and I know where he is originally from.Originally Posted by XLR8NMr2
Matter of opinion and preference. If you like his style over WC styles, then maybe so. I don't like his style. Doesn't mean I don't think he's one of the best.Originally Posted by XLR8NMr2
I've been listening to hip hop since 1982. I know all sorts of things you wouldn't expect a 35 year old white dude to know(lolol). I consider myself a "hiphop head" and a sort of know-it-all. As I do consider Nas a top rapper, I don't have him in my personal Top 3. Maybe 5, but not 3. And that does not put me away from "hip hop head" status. it just means that we have different tastes in styles. Later, QD.Originally Posted by XLR8NMr2

Illmatic is probably in the top 3 or 5 best albums ever.
To a religious person, the Bible is a basis for all life. So to call a rap album a Bible to rap, the album would have to be a basis for all rap. I don't think it is. That's all i was saying. Nothing derogatory to Nas.Originally Posted by Julio
Lolol. I posted that at the same time. Later, QD.Originally Posted by Julio
