Of course. It’s a great project and maybe even a triumph especially for someone so far in their career. Just can’t call it a classic personally

I can defiantly see where he’s coming from, I agree with his definition that a classic album should be one you can just press play and step away from and you can’t do that with I am. Trimmed down to a 10 track album it’d be a debatable classic though

I’m in rare form

OP left out Distant Relatives and y’all aren’t acknowledging that enough

Happy that wasn’t included

Only stans think this

Would’ve comprised the legitimacy of the thread

@op selections were perfect

Distant Relatives>God’s Son

KD2 is an improvement over KD but it's still far from being a classic

KD & KD2 are classics already

let the old heads have fun, man.

Never

AOTY 2 years in a row

Stillmatic is a classic for sure

Nas the goat

But honestly he has some misses

Not kd2

KD2>KD1 (both are great tho)

You think so? Idk why but i aint feeling it as much as the first one which i was playing constantly

Illmatic classic
It was written classic
Stillmatic classic
Lost tapes classic
Gods son cult classic
Life is good cult classic
Kings disease good album
Kings disease 2 great album

I’m not mad at that opinion at all, Gods son and LIG are defiantly debatable classics and KD AND KD2 are a little too recent to be actual classics, although both defiantly have massive potential to be

Agreed

Niggas in here hot taking but i ain’t mad at it

I get it… after every artists drops the first 48/72 hours is “classic classic classic”

Bottom line though, is both albums are very good

Classic by Nas standards is groundbreaking…. His first two albums are ground breaking

I love Nas but KD1 and KD2 are most definitely NOT classics
