How is this true when jay albums like reasonable doubt, blueprint, AG,etc have aged much better than illmatic and it was written. Especailly illmatic, it sounds way too dusty.

I'd say Illmatic, It Was Written, Stillmatic, Blueprint, Reasonable Doubt, and The Black Album are all tier 1 albums
Aged better my ass. Illmatic is looked at by most Hip Hop connoisseurs as timeless and the culture's zenith musically and It Was Written, along with Cuban Linx, is the influence to what a good portion of Hip Hop fans consider Jay's best album (Reasonable Doubt).
This nikka got the nerve to call Illmatic dusty

Most people only pretend to still listen to illmatic because they want to appear knowledable. Luckily I'm too grown for that.Aged better my ass.

Lmfao this is a lie. RD, blueprint, black album, American gangster, and 4:44 are better than the majority of nas albums.
Nas's third best album, stillmatic, isn't better than any of those and its on the level of jay's vol albums. The main problem with stillmatic is it's production

I wouldn't say this personally, I like RD better than It Was Written.
I'll call it a tie RD is just as good as IWW.

Even on the court we stay flyy, Jada & A.I.
RD ain't Jay's best album tho, its clearly the Blueprint....y'all just love clinging onto any and everything 90s, just because.
If Jay never said it, y'all wouldn't even think to instinctively herald it as his best project the way y'all do.....and I love that album.
And as for Nas' discography, that shyt gets extremely overhyped on the internet , outside of a track or two off Illmatic; the entire It Was Written ; and a few tracks here and there from Stillmatic and Lost Tapes; his shyt has no replay value. Let's just keep it a buck. But y'all got such a man crush on the dude that y'all live in this alternative reality where y'all put him in the weigh class as Jay in terms of discography. The shyt ain't close tbh.
And let me rephrase, I said DISCOGRAPHY not as a rapper. He's clearly up there, if not better than him as a rapper, for wateva that's worth.
