I remember when The Realness came right before The Blueprint and Mega jacked Jay Zs beat for Fallen Soldiers while Jay Z jacked Megas beat for Lyrical Excercise. I always thought that was some sort of mutual salute they were giving to each other subliminally.
days. 
compared to The Realness??

No it aint...That album was a disappointment. Everyone had Jada as next...We were all expecting Ready To Die part 2 and that didnt happen...Jay had to come a month later and make the album we all expected Jada to make.
I'll never forget the disappointment of that album because it came out around the same time Aaliyah died. So many skippable tracks. I remember locking myself in my room with a bag of hydro cuz I was so hype....by the time I came to this track...
I felt like the album ruined my high....That hook
I'd put Eves Scorpion over that album....I'd put Clues, Professional 2 over that album.

The realness n black trash are the two most ubderrated hip hop classics

You're full of terrible opinions. Thanks for reminding me to add you to the ignore list.

Cormega has to be one of my own under looked favorites.....I hadn't heard much of him in that summer of 2001, asides from 'Affirmative Action' and a few verses here and there, maybe 'fukk Nas', but his name was everywhere on the forums, anyone up on the NY scene was fukking with Cormega. Way out in San Diego, as a kid in sophmore year of high school, no one I knew was fukking with Cormega. I'm reading stories in XXL about him, interviews, and finally I see 'Get Out My Way' drop, and I had a real audio file, as soon as that Bleek sample hit, and the beat dropped, I was in.
I remember reading at least a dozen track by track reviews on SOHH, and another site, and I had to get that one. You remember when you are a kid, and so broke, you don't even know where any little money you had came from? Somehow I came up with 15$ or so, and I copped this from Wherehouse Music, and just instantly loved it. I had to take summer school because I failed math, I had to walk like 2 miles every day, I used to run this in my headphones, the rawness and street edge of 'Thun & Kicko', the prophetic 'They Forced My Hand', (I sniffed so much coke I froze with nose bleeds) the ominous 'Killaz Theme', the heartfelt bittersweetness of 'Glory Days', i couldn't really comprehend that I'd really feel like that one day, all friends gone, eras vanished into years past....
Cormega is like a summer tradition for me, next year 'The True Meaning' which I probably prefer, dropped, and I could write another essay about the power of that music, the memories tied to it, and lifes lived to that soundtrack.

Lurking Class Hero
Medicine for loneliness
I've always liked this album but never loved it. To this day I jusf see it as a good albium. I don't see what raises it to classic or near classic status.

How the hell is Nas a student of Mega? Mega was in jail when Nas dropped Illmatic. Mega aint never helped Nas with no lyrics or show Nas how to make songs
nas was in that project window watching cormega and drawing inspiration though
