Untitled
are all classics to me
Untitled has aged exceptionally well, and that shyt was so far ahead of it's time with what Nas was talking about. Soo much knowledge in it, think we're gonna get Nas the professor back with a sped up flow over more commercial production on the next one. At least that's what his recent guest appearances are hinting at
Life is Good is close (4.5 mics, although I find myself skipping over Daughters, Summer on Smash, Bye Baby... and World's an Addiction and Cherry Wine could be shorter or use another verse. Bonus tracks make up for it a little.
God's Son, Streets Disciple, I Am, HHID = 4 mics... HHID isn't aging well for me, still love the concept tho
Nastradamus - 3.5, but I fukk with it, still gets spins like twice a year
nobody is fukking with that catalogue tho
