this is better

biggie and pun were better desu

>>70332882
Illmatic and The Unseen aren't comparable.

>>70332888
Biggie and Pun are easily among the most over rated rappers in existence

>>70332863

Low End Theory

>>70332863
This and Madvillainy are literally the two most overrated hip hop albums of all time.

>>70332863
Come close to being as overrated? I mean I can think of a few, but not many.

>>70334948
yeah reasonable doubt was garbage

>>70332882
That's not even the best Madlib project.

>>70334948
It's fine not to like an album, but I don't understand how "overrated" is in any way a legitimate criticism for an album.

>>70334966
Bit of filler but pretty damn good. 2nd best Jay album

>>70335172
It means "it's not as good as most people say it is", punk. That's a perfectly valid relative criticism.

>>70335172
It's a criticism of people like you who fawn over it because you don't know any better.

>>70335180
jay is a snitch and stole everything he ever made after doing everything in his power to destroy his peers which he saw as competition

>>70335229
No it's not because the term is meaningless unless the claimer can somehow prove that the praises a particular piece of media gets are for some reason unfounded, yet neither of these posters have fleshed out their opinion. An argumentative claim is only really valid if the claimer can flesh it out with evidence, but no one ever does, and until then, the claim is unfounded and the argument is invalid.
>>70335239
So you're claiming that people who like an album only like it because they don't know any better, rather for the genuine merits an album might have? That's a projection, and dismissing an argument by attacking the character of a claimer instead of his claim is the definition of an ad hominem, which is, again, an invalid form of argument.

>>70335180
Fuck Jay and fuck that fake ass nigga Diddy too. And fuck Kanye for riding they fake ass dicks.

>>70335307
Wrong

>>70335307
Everything about this is wrong

>>70335577
>>70335606
You people seem to be very good at making claims without fleshing them out or supporting them in any way, as you've done once again. Haven't you ever learned how to construct a cohesive argument before?

>>70334823
ten times better that illmatic

>>70334823
The beats on this album are mediocre af

GZA has mad rhymes but Illmatic is both dope rhymes and beats

>>70335856
It's replay ability is shit. Nas sounds boring and has the sand flow in every song. He hasnt made a good song let alone album since it came out which leads to me think half the lyrics werent his. None of the beats were his either

>>70335856
The best thing about LS are the beats you pleb

Objectively only 90s HH album that comes close to Illmatic.
Ironically,it has a Nas feature.
