Illmatic

  1. Is there a better album out there? Every track on that shit is straight fire. Every time I listen to it I have a new favorite song. Nas just absolutely kills it.
     
  2. I just listened to Illmatic and 3 other Nas albums. All ive heard so far is fire. Illmatic itself is a sick album though, im with ya.
     
  3. nas > big
     
  4. Illmatic is definitely one of the best hip-hop albums of all time. Listen to It Was Written too, every track on it is fresh as hell.
     
  5. Illmatic and Stillmatic

    There are a lot of amazing albums man... Nas delivers

    Big Pun was underrated as well.

    And for all us smokers, Devin the Dude.
     
  6. nas is pretty ill but i wouldnt go that far...
    at best i would put them equal. i still favor big more though
     
  7. illmatic is the best album ever.

    I find myself in awe when I listen to it. I've probably listened to the album all the way through at least 100 times. It never gets old.
     
  8. It is an ill album & definitely one of the best ones to ever come out but I wouldn't say it's the all time best.
     
  9. whats better? iyo.

    Well when I said it wasn't the all-time best I meant that there's releases that are on the same level IMO. I can't really think of a lot off the top of my head but I've listened to a lot of shit and some of which IMO is as ill as Illmatic. I mean there isn't a lot obviously but there's a few on the same level.
    Enter the Wu

    It all comes down to opinions though; and they're just like assholes.
     
  11. Yeah, all great albums. Its hard to say theres a best...
     
  12. Word. That's what I'm sayin'.
     
  13. i think illmatic is prolly the best album in rap history. it had everything

    better than biggie, better than pac, better than public enemy...and ive always stood by that.
     
  14. theres really a song on Illmatic for any mood you can be in. Its amazing.
     
  15. The production was so ill too.
     
  16. Yeah man, Illmatic is definitely an album I let rinse from start to finish.
