Nas (albums, rapper, member, title, covers)

"Illmatic" and "It was Written" deserve to be in the hip-hop hall of fame if there is such a thing. He definitely fell off a bit but there is no doubt Nas is still one of the illest in the game right now.

He should have decided to go for an all Dre album after Illmatic instead of now. Then I would have cared. His new album I haven't heard, and won't, but if he goes through with the Dre thing I'll pick it up. If.

Anyways, I just bought his Illmatic cd, slightly late I know, but I want to know which one I should pick up next? I was thinking God's Son or It Was Written....?

Thanks.

It was written is (in my opinion) an underrated album in Nas' catalogue, pick it up.

nas is amazing, and has more talent then some rappers could even think of

1. Illmatic- best hip hop album of all time
2. It Was Written
3. Untitled aka ******
4. Stillmatic
5. Lost Tapes
6. Nastradamous- this album gets very unfairly sh*t on
7. I Am
8. god's son

I got Illmatic, I listened through it, but the car was louder than the stereo and I wasn't paying attention. But I like the tracks Ether and Hip Hop is Dead a lot, so I'll be sure to give him another listen through. I wanna grab Stillmatic too.

its all about Illmatic....cant go wrong with any of those tracks. Nasty Nas lays down the knowledge

One of the greatest rappers..a legend. Untitled was a pretty sick album imo.

I like "I Am". Covers every topic that a rapper should. Has the hard stuff and the thoughtful stuff. Is he underground too???

I mean I thought only underground rappers had any skill. If more than 5 people know who he is then he must suck right? I mean he is on the Roc A Fella label isnt he? You cant be making millions and still be an artist right???

FU backpackers! STFU!!!!!!!!!

Illmatic - best hip hop album of all time
