Now, were people bumping illmatic in '94?

I'm in South Florida, nobody was bumping that shit down here.

Hell no...first time niggas was fuckin wit Nas is "If I Ruled The World"

 

[hnic1978]

The simple fact that its debated to this day makes it a classic. People don't debate over bullshit.

I tried to tell these niggas from NY and on the reason this shit.

I used to bump illmatic in my walkmen. Niggas was like you ain't bumping the new DoggyStyle.?

 

[YamoleySensei]

Reasonable Doubt >>> Doggystyle

 

[ohhhla]

Reasonable Doubt >>> Doggystyle

I agree with this but can we agree that "It wasn't bumping in my region." is a fallacy?

Like really?

 

[hnic1978]

politics as usual ..........terrible, you pose to be a dope dealing thug yet you.rappin over Ron Isley's romance beat? ummmmm nawl

22 twos ........had dope concept yet the beat was so wack its unforgivable.

Aint no nigga ........wack beat and the concept condones simping which im against. On top of that Foxy murked him oj his own shit.

Yall niggas gotta be kidding me with the wack beats on regrets and coming of age

^ ^ Those alone cause the album to not be a classic.

Feelin it and friend or foe wasnt wack but wasnt super duper great either. I actually like friend or foe 2 off of vol 1 better even tho its extra short.

both can i lives were dope tho

overall some joints were very good like the ones in my last post. some like feelin it were ok, but some were down right snoozers or too fuckin retro and thats the honest truth. I dont see what the fuss was about with people throwing the "classic" word around loosely. And before people dismiss me as a Nas fan, I feel like It was written was better than Illmatic overall so I aint just tryna be hard on Jay.

There you have it, happy 4th of July niggas!

If you gonna talk shit about something have ur facts correct the sample is from the Stylistics.

Jay wrote that shyt, homie

 

[ohhhla]

LOL@ Foxy rippin Jay on 'Ain't No Nigga'.

He's the reason why it was tolerable.

 

[DR. JEK]

Once again.

You guys are playing "It wasn't bumping in my hood" fallacy.

In the spring of '94 in South Florida, niggas was banging to Death Row, not illmatic.

What makes illmatic a classic if niggas weren't bumping it?

BTW, I do think illmatic is a classic and the hip hop bible, mind you.

So, don't go there.

Illmatic got so much play it was one of the most bootlegged albums of all time...it didn't sell cuz it was aimed for ghetto niggas no party jams like ready to die or reasonable doubt..

Reasonable had poor distribution..

And Reasonable Doubt was commercially more appealing than illmatic and had classic singles.

I respect illmatic more than RD but RD is a classic.

Niggas will sit up here and lie to say it wasn't bumping in my neighborhood to discredit.

Dead presidents was a classic single but a grown man should be embarrassed to call aint no nigga a classic. The shit is a golddigger anthem fool, what the fuck wrong wit you?

 

[ohhhla]

My bad, Dr. Jek.

You were right about Ain't No Nigga.

Can you please flag that disgusting post of mines?

It's only fair.

Yea I never heard of Jay til hard knock life. Could be showing my age. Not trying to discredit him. But I just didnt hear that nigga til the Annie sample.

 

[DR. JEK]

Reasonable Doubt >>> Doggystyle

Hell no!!! Maybe when it came to overall wordplay its better but The production on Doggystyle buts the beats Jay Z used to absolute shame with the exception of D Evils and Brooklyn's Finest. Only weak beat on Doggystyle was Loddy doddy.

Pump Pump beat >>>>>> any beat on Reasonable Dought

[ohhhla]

[DR. JEK]
