This isn’t even remotely the case for this question tho.

 

[Peak]

I'm going with the one who didn't have to convince people his album was a classic.

Tell me Im wrong on this site

 

[L. Deezy]

Reese Nibbled Out is better

If you know you know

DMX album and its not even close. Damn near every song on that album is great/classic.
Jay shyt was just a very good album with some classic songs on there.

Both still get burn to this day, but I play X album a lot more.

 

[Tommy Gibbs]

RD had better beats and lyricism, IDAHIH had better club anthems and more energy. Depends on which of the 2 you are looking for..

 

[Mike Ock]

Both are great albums, but no doubt that X's album had waaaaaay more of an impact than Jay's.

Overall Jay's album is better, but DMXs album had certain songs that shine more than any on Jay's album.

"How's it goin' down" was just incredible when you add in the video for it.

I'll take It's Dark and Hell Is Hot...


DMX brought back the grimey, demonic feeling to Hip Hop in 1998.


There's not a bad song off that album. However, I'll listen to Reasonable Doubt more these day. It was smart for Jay to reissue it in 1998 during the run for Vol 2.



Good thing that I have a copy in my booklet.

Beware Of Dog aged terribly. I don't even think that Bow Wow listens to his older records like that.


I can hear the Snoop Dogg/JD influence on it.

 

[Rhyme 4 Rhyme]

X is actually winning this?

 

[Boolean]

Reasonable Doubt…by far

 

[Yehuda]

I picked It's Dark and Hell Is Hot but I don't feel strongly about this and honestly wouldn't try to argue either way.
