Below The Heavens (Blu) vs. Graduation (Kanye West) - Which is the better Album?

- Start date
The last few lines is[Verse 1: Blu]
I got a call from my girl last week
She telling me about that time of the month and how it may not come
Dropped the phone right before she said I might have a son
And I started asking God how come
I got dreams I ain't reached yet – ends that ain't meet yet
When it comes to being a man, shyt I'm barely getting my feet wet
Trying to hit reset knee deep in debt
Trying to figure how to feed a mouth that ain't got teeth yet
How the hell am I gonna show a child to be a man
When I'm twenty-two without a clue on how to take a stand
Against this system when it's just us, wanna show him justice
But last year I was just in cuffs
What the fukk am I supposed to do when he's telling me 'Dad I need some food?'
I'm looking down at my stomach and mine is grumbling too
What can I tell him when he's twenty-two
And he's asking me what the fukk I was thinking when mommy's tummy grew?
Was I scared, was I getting prepared?
Or did I even think of leaving her without a father's care?
Should I tell him that it's hell here and life ain't fair?
Or should I try to make a change when he's pulling on my leg?
(Show me) and he keeps on telling me to
fukk jewels I think my soul glows bright enough
And fukk whips I learn more when I ride the bus
And fukk gold it's bad enough that we fight for bucks
And fukk hoes cause in the end I need a wife to love
Plus heaven is the life for us

I enjoyed Kanye's album more so Graduation.
How you gon call Illmatic overrated and big up Below The Heavens in the same breath?
shyt is beyond ironic
Yoda is a newbie. BTH dikkrides Illmatic so hard (sampling Nas vocals, referencing Nas in rhymes)
Reebok Jones

Both great albums but Blu was really spitting relatable content, especially if you was a teenager when you listened to the album.
So it’s Below The Heavens for me. Classic album…really did have impact the time it dropped despite it only being restricted to 5000 copies printed at the time & not having a mainstream platform.
Bootleg didn’t effect the impact too.
