Hov's Art collection vs. Nas'Make a thread on it. And we need a thread on Nas braids vs Jay's dreads too

To Live and Die in LA would go crazy at a wedding as well
Illmatic didn't go plat til 2001. 2Pac second album went plat in 1995. I get around and keep yah head up were ringing off everywhere, I was 8 and 9Nas was bigger in 94 than Big and Pac
Illmatic sold more 1st week
Biggie didn't blow until he hopped on remixes
More revisionist history
wtf is playing illmatic at a wedding or funeral???
The thought of anything from Illmatic being played at a wedding is wildI was gonna say Makaveli but you can play Illmatic at a wedding or funeral and you can't do that with Makaveli
I think it hurts Hov stans that during the Golden Era of hip hop 1988-1996… the era of Pac, Biggie, Wu, Rakim, Kane, KRS, Cube, Snoop, Bad Boy, NWA, Fugees, Bootcamp, Nas etc
Hov was irrelevant![]()

D'evils is probably the best Hov song ever.
Nas was born in ‘73. He was in his age 19 year when the recording began.Oh my god he was 18 not 17
Everybody stop the presses.
BTW Live at the BBQ was 1991. So yes, Nas was a teen when he broke through and Jay was much older when he finally made noise.
"Let both bodies of work and artist stand for their selves" doesn't mean scrapping context around the albums but the complete opposite which @Whips-n-Chains has explained well through out this thread.
Nas was born in ‘73. He was in his age 19 year when the recording began.
U tried to pass off him being 17when Illmatic dropped while putting Jay down as 26
It’s well known Nas got it popping younger and Jay was an older man relatively speaking when he blew you don’t gotta lie and exaggerate to kick it though![]()
