Oh I dont know about that, Common seems to speak about Illmatic highly and hearing it around his block in Chicago vividly.

nicca, Common is a NY nicca... he be in NY circles especially around that time.

* An OP mentions Illmatic in thread title for attention and hits * Check

* @intilectual recipricol pops in like clockwork when he sees Nas or Illmatic in the thread title to spew his routine drivel * Check

Just another day in The Booth

Common does do NY better than every NY rapper... he's better than every NY rapper not named Jay Z.... but barely in my top 10

Lu >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Twista >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>


to make it clear, the average rapper Kanye has a naS flow... if he had a Twista flow he'd be much better

Without Illmatic there is no Resurrection. Let's keep it 100 - without Illmatic, there's no Chicago hip-hop, period. Not only did Illmatic bring NY back - it gave birth to a whole city's scene. Illmatic basically saved hip hop.

So the bigger Nas stan Lupe is better and one of the biggest artist in music period has a Nas flow (who put Twista back on)?

If you say so

nikkaz outside of NY dont give a fukc that illmatic with its 4 or 5 copies sold "brought NY back"... when in actuality it was RTD... also check how Rakim, KGR, BDK, and Treach were rapping in 1990 and try to act like illmatic influenced them

Stop saying dumb shyt. Did you read my post, Nas' contemporaries and artists of today cite Illmatic as influence. Rappers from all over the country not just NY nikkaz.
