Hell On Earth > IWW >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>War Report
You really wasn't feeling CNN's shyt though?

In real life people love that shyt though, in the streets, everyone bumped that G.O.D shyt getting hyped lol.
I'm not saying it's wack it's a classic, Hell On Earth (Frontline) is one of my favorite songs All-Time, I just don't see how anyone can say it's better than The Infamous and it's definitely a second to third tier classic. Hell on Earth is not wayyy better than IWW like some are saying.

underrated albums?

how...

Underrated?

A lot of people outright dismiss Nas post-Illmatic pre-Stillmatic, although I guess those are primarily Jay-Z dikkriders. Maybe I've been talking to the wrong people, but a looot of people only came to see IWW as a classic in hindsight, even though it's clearly Nas' second best album. Hell On Earth isn't underrated, but rather overlooked.

I don't think it's way better artistically, songs like I Gave You Power are incredible, but the streets perspective normally is it is way better than IWW, it's not really a forum thing. That's how a lot of people feel in real life. But like you said I'm not sure about way better either, not in an artistic sense certainly, but as a cohesive project it's arguable. I think people have always had that debate with Infamous and Hell On Earth, most people say Infamous, some say H.O.E, sometimes cause of the beats, I don't even know which one I like best without relistening to both again lol. Both are great.

Man this is like asking who's your favorite child...:banderas:. I refuse to pick but if someone held a gun to my head I'd say It was Written is the better album but I enjoy Hell on Earth a lot more. P on that album is just....yeah words don't do justice for his performance
