this is definetly the best debut album of all time, also nas's best album, it doesn't have a single bad, or even mid song, all songs are perfect, even the interlude is engaging, nas goes 10 for 10 or 9 for 9 on this album whatever u wanna call it (if u wanna include the genesis or not), and despite the low number of features it is still a perfect album
