Not even close.

And Nas didn't call it Illmatic 2.

Nothing in his catalogue comes close to Illmatic. IWW is the closest.
IWW is better than illmatic


but on this topic....kanye and mike dean would be amazing for ghost but i doubt we get many of those tracks now

I agree that Nas was definitely a better MC by '96, but IWW was nowhere near the level of Illmatic.

Maybe if that's someone's first Nas album, it could be a sentimental thing. But IWW didn't have the impact or level of perfection that Illmatic had. Everything stopped in Hip Hop when Illmatic dropped. It literally changed the course of the culture. IWW is a classic, and I copped it the first day it came out, but it wasn't even in the same zip code as Illmatic, in terms of quality.

You're not gonna make a better album than Premier, Q-Tip, Pete Rock and Large Pro in their prime, with '96 Trackmasters, lol. That sh*t is impossible.


But he didnt tho... he made an album with premier, Havoc, Stretch, & Dr. Dre.... AND trackmasters.

Love Ghost but I’m gonna be furious if he fukks this up lol

Side note - anyone find it weird that in the 30th anniversary month of Cuban Linx, we’re getting Supreme Clientele 2 and not Cuban Linx 3? Also, Supreme Clientele 25th Anniversary was in Feb so should’ve released this then

My guess is it drops the 15th.


I hope Ghost does more press and marketing for this album than Rae did for Emperor’s New Clothes. This is the sequel to one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time. It deserves the bells, whistles, pomp and circumstances, the same that Rae got when he dropped Cuban Linx 2.
