    That's a huge classic. It could be year 2035, I'd still be banging it. 10.

    I'm not beefin' or disputin' ... I'm just curious.

    yeh good question... i didn't want to give the impression that i don't appreciate nas' ability on the mic... i agree lyrically that the album was definitely groundbreaking... it's just that i hate those four or five beats so much, that i can't get past them...

    6 is very harsh score, it's probably closer to a 7, but it makes it more interesting than everyone saying... 10/10, 10/10, 10/10...

    Anyone who didn't give this album a 10 or at least a 9, didn't hear the album around the time it came out, regardless. When illmatic came out that shit was like, THIS NIGGA IS CRAAZZY!! The album is still ill. I've bumped this album every day for about 2 years straight, in my boombox and never got tired of it. I heard someone playing this in their car while I was on the Ave the other day and I got amped up.

    you make it sound as though opinion isn't a real word...

    anyway to answer bedlam's question... i like the three premo beats, the world is yours and halftime... i don't like any others...

    and teknicestyles, i'm old enough to have heard it when it came out... i've never once disputed nas' part of the album, but even he can't elevate some of the music...

    like i said, i don't like it... just because the album is a classic doesn't mean it is an automatic hit with everyone...

    Even though there are 2 songs I don't really love, i'm not a fucking idiot and i'll say this is a classic. Easily. Should be in everyones top 10 list.

    A young and very humble Nas raps on point for each and every line of each and every track on this album. This is what music should be like 10/10

    ^ word, On the Real is fuckin amazing, that piano is ill. and that first verse sounds like classic Nas, just like how he says he wrote it 10 years ago in the song.
