Thats not the argument here. U can have a GOAT discography without 5 classics which NOBODY has, not even Michael Jackson.
Don't u dare bring Michael's name into this -
1If you really think about it, his entire discography is solid.
Solid is different than classic. -
OutKast has a Disputable 5 Classics...

Beef with you know who...
Fire album, return of the king... -
More? asked why Stillmatic is a classic lol
Stillmatic got more impact than Reasonable Doubt and that's Jay best album
The funniest thing before Reasonable Doubt it was an album called Only Built For Cuban linx which was much better. -
3Only in Hip Hop would an album like The Lost Tapes not be considered a classic. In every other genre there are multiple examples of non albums tat are considered masterpieces, even greatest hits collections are considered classics. Outside of everybodys crazy, The Lost tapes is basically flawless and it's a more cohesive album and listening experience than anything Nas has done since 1996.

A lot of ? not gonna like my list but this is objectively what are NaS classic albums. I know it's the Reason and the rule #1 is "thou shall not speak Ill of NaS or the nation of Naslem but let's keep it 100. Out of his large discography he has arguably 5 bonafide classic albums. The other albums you can make a case for but in terms of impact and quality of music the 5 I listed best exemplify that.
And this don't mean his other albums were bad or anything, it's just these 5 albums had a tremendous impact on rap music during the years of their release.
What impact did DR and Life is Good have on hip hop? They are both dope albums but them ? ain't have no impact on hip hop.

Because if Illmatic isn't a classic then there are no classics in hip hop -
