Neck ties and boxing gloves.
again the lines have failed to be explained on how they are examples of elite lyricism

nikkaz only parroting opinions made by cac publications like a bunch of sheep.

Fck outta here sheep ass nikka :mjlol:

No, Junior, I get where you're coming from now.

It's okay.

The Source was the first to give any album five mics but you're a rebel who knows better.

Fighting the power.

Adorable.

And I didn't even need an emoticon.

Its Illmatic. College Dropout wasn't even the best version of College Dropout that came out. Keep the Reciept and Home>Legit CD.

do you idiots not realize that imagery is one of the prime principles of lyricism? you can listen to all the lyrical miracle spiritual rap you want, doesn't change the fact that imagery is one of the most important standstills of being an effective lyricist.

I mean you can act like little kids and take lines out of context all you want, fact is those lines are good as it progresses the narrative of the set of bars and paints a picture in your head. if you don't think it's lyricism, you have no idea of the fundamentals of hip-hop.

that intellectual reciprocal idiot even admitted nas was a great storyteller.....yet the cheetah line he always posts to make fun of is an example of just that, as is the whole song. stories of his life in NY.

backslash on the other hand is just a jay nuthugger, can't blame him for jerking off the other troll in this thread.


but anyway yeah, Illmatic is not only the best debut of all time but the best the best rap album of all time. CD can't compare.

Better comparison would be Late Registration vs Illmatic

Illmatic would still win though
