If you started listening to hip hop after 96 you shouldnt be allowed to post shit...these niggas today rap about absolutely nothing...If you were born after 95 shut your fucking mouth PLEASE
@sunkcity02 I was only 5 when illmatic came out.The first song I liked by nas was made you look but i was about 11 so didnt really think about it that much then a few years later i heard i now i can and by that time i was more mature and started to track back to his old stuff, I listened to one mic and thought it was the best thing ever, listened to gods son then listened to it was written and finally i listened to illmatic.unlike you every album i listened to by nas got better

YOUTUBE ZIN PHOX HIP HOP IS NOT DEAD ...I KICKED A ILL FREESTYLE TO THIS TRACK ITS ALL LOVE TO ALL MY NAS FANS ..................AND FACEBOOK ZIN PHOX PEACE ...THANK YOU NAS YOUR WORK INSPIRES ME
DJ Premier said that Pete Rock did all the scratching for this song in one take. That is some crazy DJ skills. This is one of my favorite songs of all time.
@socomXpert1 thats some real talk bro. lil wayne weirdos would be like,"what does he mean by this" "I dont understand why hes being so chill, why doesnt he talk about the bunch of cars he owns?" these kids nowadays wouldnt know what a metaphor in rap is if it hit them and pissed in their faces..and they wouldnt know what hard lives ppl lived back in the day before every rapper was singing about being the boss and owning 6 mansions.
@CrissTrainz Yes, you're right. 36 Chambers is a legendary album.. It's just that Illmatic is the MOST legendary album. MOST people agree Illmatic is the best, not all, but most.
@AllAbouTheBenjamin95 On my youtube homepage, Illmatic is number 1, i agree that this is the greatest album of all time, we can say 36 chambers is the greatest group album of all time
its impossible to have a top 5 list of rappers from 90's they all had different style and flows, today they just all sound the same and no one has their own style. Ofcourse apart from the real underground rappers today which most of people sadly dont know about.
If the lyrics on this is "suede tims on my feet" then where did Mac miller get the sample with "nikes on my feet"? Is this not the original song? (and btw I think Mac miller is whack so don't roast me on that)
PEACE. I'm not sayin fuck niggas but fuck emm. Check it who cares if naas really did that or not its called being a artist and painting a picture for tha public. Pas really lived his lyrics aand look what happened. I like pac aand nas and ppersonally I don't ppl should be commentating on anything this artist do..this video is a classic,all pacs material is clasic. So leave it at that shut tha fuck up hit a blunt sip some rosay wit a bitch and have some good sex...100
@polkin56 thanks bro...im fucking sick of muthafuckas that say that pac is best because they only heard that from someone and they dont know shit about him... theres a lot of sick emcees not only pac...
@ilija97 Great list i can't do just 5 the top 10 is so close but 1. 2pac 2. Nas 3. Rakim 4. Andre3k 5. Black Thought 6. Big Pun 7. Ghostface 8. Big L 9. Big Pun 10. Ice cube honorable mention GZA, Deck, KRS-one, Slick Rick, Chuck D, Scarface, Method Man
@MAB9413 It's the greatest hip hop album of all time. and he has other 5/5 4/5 albums. and amazing lyrics on almost every track he's ever recorded... so yea. He's a living legend. I think he's the greatest rapper of all time.
@MAB9413 A lot of people think Nas is the best. And Illmatic wasn't his only good album. Ever heard of It Was Written, Stillmatic, Gods Son, I Am..., and pretty much all of his other albums? Just because it isn't popular doesn't mean it isn't a good album. AZ proves that, AZ gets no love, he is so underrated. Nas is the greatest ever. And really?? he is kind of wack now??? have you heard his new song, Nasty?
@MAB9413 Nas is the greatest in my opinion. But do you honestly think Kanye and Eminem are better? I can understand why you think biggie or 2pac are better, even though i dont. But Kanye???? Em??? really?? But yeah, Michigan is the best :P
@AllAbouTheBenjamin95 Eminem maybe be crazy, and raps about insane things at times, but he knows about rap. He raps from his experiences. Which is what rap is all about, putting your troubles and difficulties of life in the ghetto(where rap started) in a poetic form. Eminem knows this and he does this. he chose to rap about HIS hard ships, whether crazy or not, instead of rapping about the millions he's made over the years. And he can rhyme any two words, which is the fun part of the art.
@Mx5322 you dont know shit about rap if you forgot JAY-Z you scumbagg, theres so many more rappers your forgetting so go flush this list down the toilet.
@jsaca5519 "self expression and having a good time" is definately not the definition of hip-hop. There is a much more slecific sub-culture associated. I guess some is up to personal interpretation, but regardless how much wishful thinking you cant pick and choose according to personal preference. Seems like you may just be a hater in disguise.
His records were stopped due to the things he was leaking, im not one of those guys on the corner talking about the world will end(they know the truth or something i dont know and i would be glad to hear what they have to say) but listen to his lyrics and you will understand.
believe in 90s revival. The original golden age hip hop originators are coming back stronger than ever.MCs and producers/beat makers. Kanye is playing an important role with bringing back bass filled beats and jazz sampling. Look for new albums from Goodie Mob, Nas, AZ, Wu-Tang, Method Man, Outkast,The LOX, and a Pete Rock DJ Premier collab album to pave the way.
While I'm just as excited as you are about the 90's revival, i cant help but be excited for the likes of Jay Electronica, Kanye West, Lupe Fiasco & Kid Cudi who are bringing something different to the table and are part of the new wave of MC's. J Cole, Drake, Wiz Khalifa, Curren$y and Lil B have a wayyyy different appeal than the 4 I just mentioned...
@petahhhhhhh as good as those albums will be, I doubt they are gonna make a dent. I wish they would but you got people stuck on Gucci and Wayne out there. and the whole new wave of "care free stoner" shit like wiz and Mac Miller that is so half ass.
@FreestyleFletcher Dude wth,? You said some real true shit bout Gucci wayne and mac miller so why do you go on doom videos and act like you like them?
@Illlumin kids walking around in vans and hats back aint hip hop, thats lil wayne pop. hip hop at its core, REAL hip hop is about self expression and having a good time.
Word no doubt about that! By the way if you check out my channel I have 5 slideshow vids of some of my own songs. If you like Nas you'l like my stuff check it out and holla!
Completely agree with RaminME, i dont even consider Lil Wayne/Drake/Nikki Minaj rappers. Theyre just fuckin clown entertainers. so if your gonna view a classic nas track on here and start talkin about one of these wanna bes, get d fuck outta here!
@JLBHipHop Man can you believe I had never HEARD of any of those cunts before those idiots started dissing them and stating their names on EVERY SINGLE goddamn underground hiphop page. Pathetic. They all bragging about how hiphop sucks now but aren't able to quote 2 artists who are active and got some quality shit out last year. And there's been plenty.
this is definitly the zone out smoke,and plot the next move song,its untouchable,nothing will ever compare,the only things that evokes the the same feeling and passion is J Electronica's shit

Listen up Everyone. On September 15th all of Tupacs fans are going to watch 2pacs Hit em up video on youtube which currently has 39 million views. Justin biebers baby has 300+million views which is a disrespectful thing to the real rappers like biggie nas and tupac! So everyone get together, click on hit em up, refresh your page 5 times to give it 5 more views and lets get the real song more views! Paste this message to all the real rappers like nas, dmx, biggie, 2pac etc! SPREAD THE MESAGE
Nas is better than 2pac,everybody wants to go dickeat off of 2pac because he is dead and he had emotion in his voice when he rapped but in reality nas could lyrically kill 2pac in a song.i aint sayin 2pac is wack either just my opinion
@Suckafreeteam And opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one. 2Pac was a TRUE revolutionary. Nas speaks it while 2Pac lived it. How many cops Nas shot and got off at trial??? And in defense of another man no less. Lyrics ain't everything in life bro. Nas could most def rip it up lyricaly but when it comes to walkin what u talk 2Pac can't b fuked with.
@RelaxednCaIm Living it does make you a better emcee in my opinion. Would you go to church and follow a pastor who doesn't live a Christian life? How about following the advice of Oprah as a nutritionist? There is a lot of respect gained by living what you speak.
but in reality, there's plenty of pastors who can carry on a good service who don't live by the rules. if oprah gave you good advice on nutrition and it made you healthier, her being overweight wouldn't change it. if you have great skills in your profession, it's not effected by your personal life.
the difference between hip hp now and back then is that back then they wrote shit that spoke out about the world and new age hip hop is the same shit money sex and drugs so it doesnt relate to the average person
opinions...they are like assholes ...every one has one...and if you a slut yours is wide and gaped...and you dont mind putting a few dicks into it at the same time. and if you got money you can pay a doctor to look into yours a couple times a year to make sure you dont got cancer growing up there. but if your just a noob liveing in the ghetto most likely your asshole is unhealthy and got cheap toilet paper stuck to it.
i know every rapper says this but for real if u check out my music i have some real hip hop elements not too comercial dont get me wrong im no nas, rakim or guru but im not a hip POP artist either
I remember this!!! Nas came out of nowhere....and got his 5 mics from the source LOL!!!!! From the classic album illmatic!!!! When the source said you was hot everyone agreed!!!!
if i could i would make Rap like this again even though i suck at rapping i would still try and open the path for more people to try and revive rap and kill this mainstream pop rap

Completely agree with RaminME, i dont even consider Lil Wayne/Drake/Nikki Minaj rappers. Theyre just fuckin clown entertainers. so if your gonna view a classic nas track on here and start talkin about one of these wanna bes, get d fuck outta here!

@JLBHipHop Man can you believe I had never HEARD of any of those cunts before those idiots started dissing them and stating their names on EVERY SINGLE goddamn underground hiphop page. Pathetic. They all bragging about how hiphop sucks now but aren't able to quote 2 artists who are active and got some quality shit out last year. And there's been plenty.

Nas is better than 2pac,everybody wants to go dickeat off of 2pac because he is dead and he had emotion in his voice when he rapped but in reality nas could lyrically kill 2pac in a song.i aint sayin 2pac is wack either just my opinion

JoeyAjax93 1 year ago
@Suckafreeteam And opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one. 2Pac was a TRUE revolutionary. Nas speaks it while 2Pac lived it. How many cops Nas shot and got off at trial??? And in defense of another man no less. Lyrics ain't everything in life bro. Nas could most def rip it up lyricaly but when it comes to walkin what u talk 2Pac can't b fuked with.

living it doesn't make you a better emcee.

@RelaxednCaIm Living it does make you a better emcee in my opinion. Would you go to church and follow a pastor who doesn't live a Christian life? How about following the advice of Oprah as a nutritionist? There is a lot of respect gained by living what you speak.
msuttle1904 6 months ago
@msuttle1904
but in reality, there's plenty of pastors who can carry on a good service who don't live by the rules. if oprah gave you good advice on nutrition and it made you healthier, her being overweight wouldn't change it. if you have great skills in your profession, it's not effected by your personal life.

the difference between hip hp now and back then is that back then they wrote shit that spoke out about the world and new age hip hop is the same shit money sex and drugs so it doesnt relate to the average person

hip hop is alive in the UNDERGROUND!
people want real hip hop to come back but they are not supporting the underground!
spread the word on some underground artist. people like AKIR, PRINCE ALI (PA) and SIVION.
only young rapper that is getting spot-light that is worth listening to is LUPE!
Lupe got songs like "never lies".
i mean c'mon now!
