OK. Fine.

And?

Pretty much. Primo would probably be the greatest even if the masters of Illmatic were lost in a fire in 1993. And if Reasonable Doubt never came out, either.

You really think Nas's discography is better than that of Gang Starr? GTFOH.

*smh* Typical disrespect to Guru. Dude has a grip of classic songs, and somehow it's all gotta go back to how great Illmatic was.

>Oh, and let's not even speak on 'Nas is Like'

Those songs are fucking great. All of the Nas/Premier collabs were great. Was each of them better than any and all Gang Starr songs? You really honestly believe that?

How about you get off Jay-Z and Nas's dick for just a second. Thanks.
