Nas wins because his cover art is better and possibly the best rap cover art of all time.

the highs on I Am are better than the Vol. 3 ones
the lows on Vol. 3 are better than the WTF was Nas thinking moments on I Am

This shouldn't even be a thread. I AM was a really weak follow-up to the greatness displayed on "It Was Written".

Vol 3. signified Jigga being CEMENTED in the game. There's Been A Murder, Dope Man, Hova Song (Intro) & Outro.....I'm not even going to mention Big Pimpin'....I remember when that shyt first hit the radio in like what, early 2000?
