Chuck D: Nas single handledly dominated a HIPHOP era with consistency

I like Nas, but he never dominated during any era and his consistency is questionable. He's been a consistently strong lyricist, but the quality of his albums have oscillated a bit.

Facts.

I didn't notice it at the time, but Nas probably had the strongest discography from 94-03 (ten years)

Illmatic- arguably the greatest hip hop album of all time

It Was Written- classic album

I am- good album

Nastradamus- meh album but it had its moments

Stillmatic- classic album

God’s Son- good album

I can remember driving around Harlem in a snowstorm listening to the I Am bootleg bumping We Will Survive.

Illmatic was a gift and curse for Nas. Gift as in every rapper wants an album that’s appreciated like that in their catalog. As curse as in the fact that now every album he released afterwards got compared to it and shitted on cause they wasn’t Illmatic even tho they were great or good albums(except nastradomus and streets disciple)

and I’m gonna be honest. Illmatic is a classic but I. Like it was written more. That’s my favorite Nas album
