This post is about a 4 album run

Illmatic is probably the best hip hop album ever. It Was Written is amazing. Then I Am/Nastradamus happened. Stillmatic, Lost Tapes, Gods Son - all great, but then Streets Disciple happened (should've been 1 disc) and Hip Hop is dead, which was just ok. I enjoyed untitled - though I think it's not on the level of Stillmatic - God's Son, however Life Is Good is great as well (probably deserved more praise when it came out tbh). I also really enjoyed Distant Relatives. Nas is my favorite rapper ever but he has at least one dud or very underwhelming album every 4 releases IMO.
