Most Underrated Track On Illmatic...

[Type Username Here]

The entire album is a masterpiece that will never be surpassed. It is perfection from start to finish.

 

[ThaRealness]

It's by default the most underrated track because as you said it hardly gets mentioned if at all. Hell I bet the Genesis intro gets more mentions than the track.

But it is still the worst track on the album. Very solid though.

That shyts better then Halftime

 

[T.he I.nformant]

One love was always the weakest song for me beatwise

 

[Inspect Her Deck]

That shyts better then Halftime

HELL NO wtf....

That first verse is pristine. You should feel foolish for questioning the god

I was lost but now I'm found. The first verse is dope but that shyt he's doing on the second verse is nuts.

 

[GeeEffKay]

probably is one time but the other tracks are so damn strong it naturally doesnt get talked about as much

 

[UpAndComing]

royally pisses me off that it gets left off of every 'making of illmatic' interviews about it etc.

Hipsters control Hip Hop media now

 

[Bugsmoran]

the song sounded outdated to me when I first heard it


Quite is kept Halftime wasn't nothing to write home about either

 

[KravenMorehead™]

glad you came around

 

[StretfordRed]

For me it was One Love. Something just threw me off about that joint

Represent is criminally underrated. But Halftime is the dogs bollocks

Amen. The pocket he was in was just dope. Delivers all his lines real smooth. It was like the coolest dude just talking real laid back about himself and what an average day was like for him in his neighborhood. Then there's this subtle shift and transformation in tone where he proceeds to talk about about rap and how ill he is and it's just the coldest shyt ever.

 

[KiD WavE]

Its automatically the most underrated track because its the worst on the album

but thats like saying your the worst player in the greatest HoF class of all time so yea

Worth another spin on the week of my favorite rapper dropping a new album.
