NAS: Illmatic LP really is one of 5 best rap / hiphop albums ever. Not that
long, but all those 10 tracks are dope. When you compare this material to
his later material, you can definetely say " Nas fell off". One of the only
surprises being
"Nas is like" -single from last year. Ofcourse it was produced by Premier,
who produced some good tracks on illmatic ("memory lane", "represent").
Anyways, IMO best track on Illmatic is "Halftime" - the first Nas solo track
ever.
-Jussi Vesikansa.
