How does Nas feel about illmatic putting him in the hall of fame while Big Sean called an album hall of fame and isn't even close to sniffing it?

Don't you ever compare Nas the Gawd to Big Sean

@nikkaz In Paris



A classic album is supposed to change or define its time. Illmatic did both. The Notorious B.I.G. borrowed everything from art ideas to album structure. It was so blatant that Ghostfaceand Raekwon dedicated an entire skit to mocking it. Jay-Z took a hot Nas line and made a hot song on Reasonable Doubt. If you listen to Sean Carter before Illmatic, the rat-a-tat is straight from Big Daddy Kane. After Nas dropped, Jay-Z suddenly got smooth. Those are just the two most famous appropriations.
