I like both. But outside of album sales and popularity, Nas just has the better discography. The only Jay album that I can listen to start to finish and consider a classic is Reasonable Doubt. If you think Jay has three classics your stanning him hard, or you need to evaluate what constitutes a classic album. Illmatic, It Was Written, The Lost Tapes, Stillmatic and Life is Good is better than Jay's catalog.
To me I Am.. is a solid album the cohesion wasn't great but the guess features from Diddy, Aaliyah, DMX and Scarface were solid. It also has one of Nas' best songs Nas Is Like. The album is unfairly hated on, it was the perfect mix between Illmatic and It Was Written.
Irony in this statement is that nikkaz wasnt calling RD classic till Momma Loves Me
So...it kinda makes this statement seem silly






Let's break this down.


Lol...what are you mentioning which decade the albums came out in for? What does that have to do with anything?
