Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood Is Just A Decent Album, Nothing More

But X came outta nowhere and dropped 2 number 1 albums (setting a record in the process) Helped make Ruff Ryders record label hot, did like damn near 100 guest appearances while killing every verse, starred in Belly and damn near single handedly brought rap back to grimey street shyt.:banderas:Sounds like 98 was a good year for Dark Man X or anybody in music.

ehh, not trying to be a d*ck or anything but a lot of yall need to expand your horizons.

yall talk about the same rappers over & over & over, to the point where you place ridiculous titles on these rappers.

this is preposterous.

Great times to be a Nas fan though. 3 great albums within a year. That's not to mention that verse he dropped on Face's The Fix. He also had a lot of commercial spots that year from remixes with Brandy, J. Lo, Alicia Keys, Jagged Edge, Jaheim, and Boyz II Men to touring with Usher. Then there was that whole thing about him signing with Murder Inc., him performing on MTV, and appearing on the 8Mile Soundtrack.
Forget a Nas fan. As a MUSIC fan you had to be like :wow::ahh::blessed: during that period!!!
