Not ignorant... you're a cube fan who thinks bow down was hailed a classic. QBs finest was hailed a classic too I guess.

I've never heard bow down referred to as a classic. At least not by credible cube fans.

you are desperately clinging on to this Bow Down argument and deflecting from every other aspect of the argument revolving around Cube vs Nas discog in their primes because you know the result is one-sided, with or without Bow Down's classic status

can you address how Nas has two duds in this prime run and still is better than Cube?

also......Westside Connection - Bow Down...is this a classic album? [poll added]

If it was truly a classic why would people be making threads asking if it was?

and who was cubes comp during his prime?

trying to assess how it has gone down as time has passed

and even outside The Coli, the anniversary of its release has been regularly celebrated

Cube's comp was pretty damn high.....Guru, Redman, Chuck D, KRS-One, G Rap, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Slick Rick, The D.O.C., Treach...and this was around the sorta time when he was considered the best rapper on the planet.

:russ: Now you're pushing it :ufdup:

:francis: why you gotta troll bro

with me as well of all people...I don't troll you
:ufdup:

Illmatic has 9 undeniable, everlasting songs that hip hop fans play often.

I can't name 9 undeniable Ice Cube tracks across the 3 albums. It Was A Good Day is certainly an undeniable, everlasting song. I'd throw nikka Ya Love to Hate in there. There are obviously more but does it get up to 9?

A lot of decent and necessary material. Influential, even. But the production on them shyts don't hold up across the board.
