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.
If thats the case Pac is 10x the lyricist Nas is

If you take out that god awful One Love track, Illmatic is damn near one of the most complete albums ever made (Note : I am a Hov stan) (2nd note : Nas a great storyteller, I just cannot stand that song. The beat annoys the phuck out of me)

:mjlol:

Godawful One Love track are you kidding? :heh:

That's a tremendous storytelling track and concept song the third verse is a blackout.

That's arguably the best song on the album, and when the album dropped it was one of the most praised songs by critics. The xylophone is ill I have never heard anyone say that song sucks. :wtf:

I've heard people say they don't like the song, but its usually girls or younger people, think it's the beat. Personally I've always liked it.
