Likely the greatest rap album of all time and probably will be forever. Everything about this album is pure hip hop perfection in every sense. From the production from legendary producers including Premier, Pete rock and Q tip, to masterful storytelling and lyricism from Nas himself, and even one of the best features of all time from Az on Lifes a bitch, Illmatic is everything you could ask for in a hip hop album
Fav tracks: The world is yours, Halftime, Lifes a bitch, Memory lane, Represent, ... read more
Definitely messy at times but when it hits it hits like classic kanye

Fav tracks: Life of the party, Pure souls, Believe what i say, Off the grid, 24
Ye's tightest album by far. The highs may not reach those of his best projects but it certainly makes up for it in consistency.
Fav tracks: No mistakes, Violent crimes, Ghost town, Wouldnt leave, Yikes, I thought about killing you
Incredibly influential album for the modern pop and hip hop scene and it makes sense why. Definitely stood out against the rest of its contemporaries when this released
Fav tracks: Paranoid, Welcome to heartbreak, Say you will, Heartless
Relisten: 80 > 90
Fav tracks: Spaceship, Through the wire, All falls down, Slow jamz, Get em high, School spirit, Two words, Family business, Last call, Breathe in breathe out, Never let me down

On Wither's review of J. Cole - The Fall-Off
"@PostWither I guess I can see how it may come off as lazy. I personally find it fine though given art inherently comes from places of personal experience and perspective anyway, but i understand how it may appear to be dull, especially in the case of Cole who, frankly, has a rather uninteresting writing style at times."
On Wither's review of J. Cole - The Fall-Off
"I'm genuinely curious as to why you think he's rapping about nothing here. I do find Cole's writing to be rather on the nose quite often, but I feel like he took a more mature approach on this album comparatively to much of his prior work. Also, why the negative perspective on him rapping about his own experiences? That's a common feature of a majority of so-called conscious hip hop, not like its something new, unless that in it of itself is the reason you dislike it. Great review nontheless though, even if I personally disagree."

On Phoenix_wrong's review of Ice Cube - Man Up
"@Ableist_abby honestly that explains my thoughts perfectly. West Coast hip hop artists, atleast the mainstream ones, were never able to really evolve their sound and it just leads to all their projects sounding so dull compared to other regions. Especially so considering how washed lyrically a lot of them are now, like with Cube here. Luckily there's some amazing underground or underapreciated west coast artists that still keep that side of the genre alive, atleast aside from some of the more modern big names like Kendrick or Tyler. In their cases though they've obviously completely evolved passed the typical west Coast sound."
On Phoenix_wrong's review of Ice Cube - Man Up
"Cuz the west coast legends were never that good to begin with in all honesty"

"@oSiley Lowkey I don't understand either. I moreso associate drum-less with this kind of mellow production style now more than I do it actually being drumless since the genre basically always has drums."
