unwarranted praise huh

"We used to always hear it [Illmatic] chillin' with Nas [in Queens]. What's funny about it was he was humble with it. I would listen to it and the songs were so ill, it made you wanna cry. He was just calm, like, 'How you like it?' We was hearing it piece by piece, so when it came out, it wasn't surprising to hear everybody's reaction. Everybody was going crazy. You could not walk through the 'hood without hearing Illmatic. It was on your brain."

And that's a quote from havoc himself. So, havoc is apparently livin in a world of fantasy to ? :mjpls:


not to mention before illmatic mobb deep weren't the cold young thugs they were on their second album and temperature's rising is a clearly (excellent) rip off of one love.

And Hoe is the best mobb imo

How is temperatures rising a rip off of one love when they were talking about Killa, something they were going through? Big misconception there, shyt wasnt no rip off.

And I agree with dude who said Pee had more quotables, every goddamn line he spit on infamous is memorable & a quotable. Theres a reason hes the most sampled rapper in history. Having said that, Illmatic is the second best album of alltime:manny:

You must have read false history if it said illmatic is better than infamous.

Infamous is way better than illmatic it's not even close.

eye for an eye would summarize the two, nas was more technically proficient but the mobb had the soul & authenticity.

*illmatic is the better album tho, shyt is flawless. infamous has some skipables & is a little repetitive
