The thing is it came out in 1994. At that point the things producers like DJ Premier and Q-Tip were doing were both new and interesting. And his lyrical content is amazing. He might not have the most interesting flow in the world but he does rap with technical proficiency and soul. Released at the time it was a 10/10 album topper. Today it'd be a 9/10 indie album. It's not the best of all time though. I don't think it beats 36 Chambers
