    2pac B.I.G

    The game Mos def

    Dr.dre NAS

    Eazy e Jay-z old songs

    ice cube  Talib Kweli

  • Represent and One Love are my favourite tracks of this album. I swear the flow and beat on Represent are just out of this world.

  • I never commit the cardinal sin of pausing a Nas song

  • @ss2lakhan u got that off wikipedia......

  • @massshysteria I didn't, it might be on wikipedia idk.

    In the description of life's a bitch, it said that Nas committed the cardinal sin of being outdone on his own song, so I kind of got it from there

  • it aint hardd to tell that nas is the GREATEST ever

  • Is your brain on drugs to all fly bitches and thugs/

    nuff respect to the projects im ghost 1'LOVE.

    reallist shit!

  • Im crying for the calm in my hood...the child half's synonymous...Im mastering moshood....the saying and the line of clothing i design....coincides with my callous of my tyme...im a cook and artist fine...Im a whore and virgin rhyme...i do all but do none of the bull that im fly'in ...one time time time time for your mind....peep the game find the lessons asinine

  • Yo....Represent...hotted NAS track ever !!!!

  • im only 12 and im the only one who understands hip hop in my city i try to convince kids nas is ill waynes garbage but they dont belive me and it get really anoying knowing you know the real shit but no one sees it its like you see a ghost and no one sees it

  • @OshawaStateOfMind right get jay z 99 problems tel them to listen to it. every lyric. then tell them to listen to lil wayne got money. every lyric. theyle see that jay z s 99 problems is a giant step up from lil wayne bollocks. then theyl start listing to things like this

  • @OshawaStateOfMind forget what your friends think, stay doing you. your smarter than them anyways

  • "Represent", "Halftime", "NY State of Mind"....this whole album is full of lyrical masterpieces. Puts shit thats out today to shame

  • r they sellin a remastrd vrsion now?nas is the bes artis of the 21st century.this is automticly top 10 albums of all time

  • Ive been luvin Nas since high school! I remember like it was yesterday when Illmatic dropped. I first copped da bootleg but after mentally visualizin his music while he was spittin fire through my boombox I had to buy da cd & support da brotha!

  • NAS you are the king my son

  • love dis shit. All da greats rap from the heart.

  • damm i wish i new about this album when i was younger then i would have knownreal hip hop....Nas is the greatest...

  • @vVSiiMzVv

    Hey, don't worry, honey..

    I have this album on my ipod...

    you can come to my apartment and listen to it...

    We can take off our shirts, pinch our nipples, and maybe kick a freestyle :)

    Bring chocolate syrup :)

  • I wish i grew up to this shit.. not shitty wayne and g unit bullshit everywhere

  • u aint lyin

  • true say man

  • @torontoskater2 That's when it was all about a personal message and not corporate materialist bullshit. Hip hop was all about individual identity, not materialist conformism like today.

  • @torontoskater2 yeah, these were the golden days of hip hop, I don't listen to rap anymore.

  • @torontoskater2 i grew up 2 50 cent and g unit BUT i was smart enough 2 change over :)

  • @torontoskater2 Nas said Wayne is in his top 10 lyricists EVER & G-Unit ain't been shit since 05 so...................

  • I did. This is/was truly the golden age of REAL HIP HOP. West coast, east coast, "dirty south" just starting to get their just dues...

  • this blew it up

  • I just started listening to this album the other day and i can't get it out of my head.  He flows so hard and he's sooo lyrical

  • nas had 2 prove himself on dis album bcuz HE HAD CRAZYYYYYYY BUZZ AROUND HIM B4 HE REALEASD iLLmatic BEST ALBUM OF ALL timeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  • really? how!?

  • represent fucking big tune fire!!!

  • name of song?

  • vocals'll squeeze glocks, em cee's eavesdrop though they need not to sneak. my poetry's deep.

  • can't believe he was only 20 when he dropped this classic... shit...............

  • peace im from germany and im fuckin stoned at the moment and i love this classic hip hop so nas is one of the best oldschool rapper and i think too that this is one of the 5 best albums and i listn to this shit and i can feel the lyric skillz!

    PEACE from germany

  • peace brother. keep smoking

  • heres a fuck u from america

  • Sick album of all times...

  • One of the five best albums ever, not just rap. Picture-painting lyrics, great song placement, everything flows. An artist at his best, the pinnacle of musical recording.

  • reasonable doubt was great album also classic but illmatic was way better lyrically he went it there was no dance or radio joints just straight from the basement shit we need more of it in hip hop but again you wont sell records

  • honestly the best track in my opinion is the last track.. it aint hard to tell.. even to this day... it has never gotten old.. and it will probably will never ever get old and it is still good... but that is with regards to the album.. as for the most popular track dancefloor friendly.. I don't know. That is quite an achievement though...a paramount of an album/ a statemtn in hip hop and street culture. seriously.

  • dis ablum is hot but honestly i like resonable doubt, nd buleprint better

  • from the queensbridge muthafukkka!

  • so now ive been listenin to his whole illmatic tru youtube .. thanks for uploading his album on here

  • One of the greatest hip hop albums!

  • plus every morning i go out i love it its sorta chilly than i send a shorty from my block to the store for phillies!

  • nas' lyrical word play is untouchable on this album. best debut hip-hop album ever made.

  • 6 mics

  • the production of this album was really good and nas lyrics makes it crack best hip hop album ever made when u think about it

  • Love this album.

  • I used to listen to this cd in the summer of 2005 on my to work it so mellow

  • give my respects to dude..debut album had no big name artists featured.. but look at the recognition this album gets.. truly the greates hip-hop album
