Lmao funniest part is when he says Nas first album "with if i ruled the world" was great when it dropped.
Yea he was wrong,but the fact he didnt think about ILLmatic,shows how much that album flopped.


They duckin that shyt like its contagious:sas2:.


"Bu bu but Nas had the critics:mjcry:"

Had the critics,the backing,5 mic ratings,crowned as the golden child and still flopped:dahell:?

Mightve flopped worst than Jay all things considered,much more embarrasing at least.

Snoop crushing all the false prophets momentums:blessed:

People acting like going 5 mics in the Source but flopping in sales means you were 'hot'.....

BUT....there is a way to go 5 mics and go platinum in equal measure very quickly....trying to remember who did that....

oh yeah.....

people in the streets were not buzzing about jay-z like they were buzzing about nas when he was getting to drop illmatic or snoop doggystyle
nikka how old are you?
Illmatic was not even remotely received like Doggystyle.
Snoop went plat within two weeks and illmatic went plat within 8 years.
illmatic was hot in queens maybe

That's like saying "nobody caught on to 400 Degreez til Back That Azz Up dropped". Hot or not, it still was a great album which is more than what anybody can say about that hot doo-doo grease he be dropping.
nikka,no

i swear yall cats try so hard to be smart asses lol...just stop...

anyway, not trying to rewrite shyt, just asking what 'making a mark' is cause i'm legit confused....people bumped the album when it dropped, to me, that means it made a mark....apparently, to yall it's about sales...thanks that's all i wanted to know...

if that's how yall determine if something made a mark, then no, jay didnt 'make a mark' with the album...
What exactly do you mean by this?
The album was largely ignored and meant nothing. No mark was made

This is an Internet argument. Dude probably was introduced to RD thru the Internet.

That was a good number back then tho. Gold debut with no major push was a success. It parlayed him to a bigger deal. IIlmatic took years to go platinum as well. The haters are the ones tryna rewrite history.
they were not good numbers and it was a major release.
WTF

Future sayin RD a classic and hard he just sayin it wasnt "hot" cuz it wasnt that popular at the time... he not lyin' and he not dissin' jay... like many said before me in this thread... jay has also acknowledged this.

I think he tried to make the same point with nas by mentionin' "if i ruled the world" after illmatic. Illmatic changed the game for mcs and hip hop heads and it gave nas a platform to blow up with his next project.

Aint futures uncle the one who started the dungeon family in atl? Future been soaked in hip hop since most of u was in the first grade
How did it change the game?
What/who is/are a hiphop head?

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
He said When nas frst album came out with "if i ruled the world,it was hot then"
So in his own way,he did say that
He said when Nas first came out. He was hot then. When "If I Ruled The World" first came out. It was hot then. It was 2 different statements. Nas and Future got the same manager yall don't think he knows Illmatic was Nas' first album?
