just can't decide. it's like picking between mmlp and tes, too difficult

gun to my head i'd probably say illmatic but there isn't much between them

this track is GOAT though

I think there are stronger songs on IWW and the production is better, yet Illmatic just feels like a more consistent album without filler.

I take Life is Good over both of em though!

Illmatic is more consistent and the better overall album but I like the highs on IWW more

thats a shock tbh


Really? LiG is awesome. One of my favorite albums in recent memory. NAS sounded as good as he did on his early days. LocoMotive, The Don, Nasty, Black Bond? Sooooo good.

Life is Good is a solid album but I don't think it could ever touch anything Nas did before he signed to Def Jam.

It Was Written
I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.

I just listened to Nas for the 1st time. Well, I loved Illmatic... but I thought IWW was better. Will listen to them again to form a more solid opinion.
