It is. But that's nothing against IWW, Untitled is just an AMAZING album to me.Originally Posted by MidEastBeast

Lyrically, Nas didn't fall off.
He's the same dude, just with different production, a different mindstate, and a different "concept" of an album.
So yeah, lyrically Nas on IWW = Nas on Illmatic.
...
I don't want you guys to get the wrong perception.
I love IWW, it's an amazing album. His most successful commercial joint, 'If I ruled the World' is one his best "mainstream" efforts(andbest songs overall)
"I Gave You Power" is just
The Message, Take it Blood, it's a great album.
But at the end of the day, Nas has 3(4 if you count 'The Lost Tapes') better than IWW.
Just speaks to his catalog...
IWW was canned for trying to be too mafioso etc. when it first released, Now it's lauded as a classic.
The truth.
This disc caught some flack because of the direction Nas took with it in order to get that plaque.
Dope album, but no where near top 15.

really not 1 (and if not VERY few) songs on that cd that arent good. LAD is EASY top 10 IMO
whats the filler?Originally Posted by MidEastBeast
I love Biggie as much as the next guy but LAD is not top 10. There's too much good music. Cut LAD down to one CD and I wouldn't be mad if you said it was top 20.
Lyrically IWW is not on illmatic's level. Pick any random verse from both and you will see for yourself. There is too much filler on IWW to call it the greatest album in the history of hip hop (which is what you are doing when you put it above illmatic) I loved Untitled also, and it's my pick for best mainstream album of '08, but its not as good as IWW.
