[BigTyme Records]

True tbh. Ye first 2 are classic.
. Nas got Illmatic ,

IWW and and Stilmatic are only like a 4 outta 5

 

[bigde09]

They’re tied. Illmatic, stillmatic and it was written for nas and college drop out, late registration and MBTDF for ye

 

[Yehuda]

Yes. He has more classic albums than Tupac as well.

 

[Kliq_Souf]

No poll?

 

[weather so breezy]

watch people entertain this troll thread

Spoiler

but yea its true

 

[Metal Face]

kanye has no classics
nas has one

 

[JustCKing]

Illmatic- obviously

It Was Written- a game changer

Stillmatic- impact

Personally, I have Lost Tapes, Life Is Good, and KD3 as arguable. ^^but those three definites.

vs.

College Dropout

Graduation

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

*808's & Heartbreaks is the tie breaker, but it has NO rapping, but obviously was impactful and influential on the genre.

 

[Ziggiy]

They’re tied in my opinion

Nas has

Illmatic
It Was Written
STillmatic
Life Is Good

Ye has

College Dropout
Late Registration
Graduation
My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy


Where Nas has the edge is overall discography. Gods Son/Untitled/Kings Disease 1-3 and Magic 1-2 are better than anything Kanye has released aside from his top 4.

Nas easily has the better, more consistent catalogue. Illmatic and IWW are better than any Kanye album. Stillmatic and Lost Tapes are also classics and some of the HB albums will go down as future classics IMO. He has also several good albums like LIG and God's Son. Kanye had a solid run of about four good to great albums in the mid to late 00's and then fell off a cliff, possibly the biggest fall off ever (between him and Marshall). And we also have to acknowledge that the rapping on Nas worst album is still better than the rapping on Kanye's best album.

Life is Good is not a classic. I'd even put KD3 and Magic over it.
