on the contrary, i think the raw bluntness in how he does his raps, on songs like Iron Galaxy and A B-Boy's Alpha, are great moments on the album. if anything i think that Vordul Mega is less interesting at times.

Vast's style is simple, yes, but it's how he works with it that makes it great. (aka-it's not what you have, it's how you use it)

If you're just listening to Illmatic, then I've got a lot to teach you guys about hip-hop. Everyone who hasn't already listen to 'Distant Relatives' with Nas and Damian Marley, please give it a listen. I'd rank that album in the top 5 best albums of 2010.

haha I think the hip-hop heads on this forum probably have a lot to teach YOU. There's always classic albums out there that people haven't gotten around to listening to yet, Illmatic was one of those for this guy.

Are you trying to prove some sort of point?

It's just that a lot of people join musicbanter thinking they know a lot about music when they don't really.
