    Not saying it's not a great album. It's just hilarious to see it mentioned in the same breath as Illmatic, 36 Chambers, etc.. as the greatest album ever when no one was even checkin for it when it dropped.

    Ya I agree. In no way shape or form should it be in anyones top 10.

    I dont have one

    Life After Death
    It's Dark and Hell is Hot
    Stillmatic
    Death Certificate


    Are some of my favorites

    I'm biased towards new york they got the best rappers to me

    I love your list of albums you have, I love New York too, but in all honesty yes they have the best rappers or whatever, but you can't name too many albums past or present from NY that is lyrically, production, and put together better than ATLiens, or Aquemini.

    LMAO @ REASONABLE DOUBT BEING BETTER THAN THE SCORE

    Son, no one was even checking for that album in NY. I remember cuz I was there that entire summer. That ? was getting ZERO burn. But Killing Me Softly and If I Ruled The World dominated the airwaves.

    Lol I don't give a ? what wad getting "burn", lollipop was dominating the airwaves doesn't mean it was better then untitled.

    atliens > it was written

    the score was a great album, but many people's mindframes' were not ready for reasonable doubt at the time . . . reasonable doubt - a top ten album right there with only built for cuban linx

    Nas is the GOAT imo and #1 on my top 5 doa, but I never really ? with IWW like THAT. ATLiens is one of my favorite albums of all time, so it gets my vote hands down like 6:30.

    I'll rank Illmatic over IWW and I'll say IWW = Stillmatic = lost tapes
    And all other nas albums below those four

    I'd rank Aquemini > Atliens, and I'd say Atliens > southernplayalistic but only by a hair, other kast albums I don't ? with heavily, but I'll say that big boi's speakerbox disc was dope, I used to listen to it all the time when it first dropped.
