Man, you're argument is bizarre and off topic. What does Wu-Tang, The Fugees, or The Roots have to do with Illmatic's accomplishments? There's a reason Illmatic is considered a classic. The lyrical excellence and production values are through the roof. Apparently, DJ Premier, Pete Rock, Large Professor and others aren't good at making beats in your opinion. I love the roots, wu-tang and KRS, but that has nothing to do with the quality of Illmatic. Learn how to make a coherent argument.

The Fugees are way better then Nas anyday, listen to their entire album "The Score", it fucks Illmatic up the ass and leaves it in a gutter crying to itself while The Roots shit on it along with about 200 other artists

Uhm, the Fugees? Did you just actually compare the Fugees first album, Blunted on Reality (which came out in 94, so it didn't come out before Nas' classic), with Illmatic? Wow...that's disturbing.

peterspud1 (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
