5 Greatest Albums of All Time

[Tebows Youth Group]

Nice. Nas is my Favorite Mc and he inspires my writings greatly. Jay-z has had greater Success in his Album because of the fact he usually has atleast 1 radio single per album which is a smart way to go. Success is one key factor of course and Nas has his fair share of success. I like to look more towards an Mcs influence on Hip-hop all together and I would deem Nas as a greater influence mainly in my opinion. I could be considered bias, but his Album Hip-hop is dead truly raised the bar for Hip-hop artist. All the Newcomers speak about how they are bringing hip-hop back to life showing influence as well as artist such as Logic and Kendrick lamar openly sharing how Nas influence their skills.

I can certainly agree with what you say. Personally, I enjoy Nas' music more than Jay-Z. I am a big fan of his collaboration with Damian Marley (Love that album). It seems Hip-Hop today can go in one of two directions. The Wayne, Drake and Kanye route, where the music seems to be more about the fame and possessions or the Nas, Common, Immortal Tech route, where its about the message. I see Jay-Z as some where in the middle. None-the-less he was really the bridge between the start of the genre and where we are now.

Distant Relatives. Beautiful. I agree with your views of Hip-hop as well. I notice those two routes seem to be the only things. I also notice the new up roaring of underground rappers or come ups seem to miss and cling to the boombap/90's hip-hop.
