Farrinto
Who's the best MCs? Biggie, Jay-Z, and Nas
Agreed. Not too many people agree with me but I like that album over RD. He hit his lyrical peak on there despite the Jiggyness.

seriously guys?? you guys are picking vol 1 over no way out??
Yeah Jigga had the rhymes and was at his peak and all but NO WAY OUT is a CLASSIC no matter if you agree or not. This album banged out hit after hit with some of the guest's best performance they've had. Sheek has a classic verse, Biggie has 2 MONSTEROUS VERESES on Victory, Ma$e came in and ripped it on both his appearances and became songs that are played TODAY! "I love you baby" was the a way for Black Rob to be introduces to the masses, Kelly Price was shining on the hooks she was singing, kim has a memorable verse that 20 some years later any body will recite it when you hear benjamins, etc. The amount of songs that stood the test of time and people know word for word is unmatched by a lot of albums especially vol 1. What song on Vol 1 besides "Where i'm from" can you play today and people rock with it?? Just cuz some of you are strictly anti mainstream don't mean that a commercial album like "No way out" or "Harlem world" can be a stand out classic in its own right. I will go as far as to say it's almost the east coast's "Chronic" in a commercial aspect just because of the production this album had. come on now

Volume 1 is a top 20 goat album for me. No Way Out is classic but Volume 1 takes this all day. My favorite Jay album. It's got the hardest beats Jay ever rhymed on and he was just so smooth in that era
i got tricked into coppin his joint
is there really a match up here? In My Lifetime, duh.
