"Illmatic vs Everything"


  

          

First, I know not everyone feels that Illmatic is the greatest hip-hop album of all-time so please save your replies in which you tell me "Album "X" is better than Illmatic anyway".

This is a different post.

Illmatic is 10 tracks, 9 songs and 1 intro and one could make the case that it benefits from its length because it has less opportunity to get knocked off the rails with a less-than-stellar track.

So my question is, what album, if broken down to just 10 tracks (whether that's 10 songs or 9 tracks and an intro) do you feel would be better than Illmatic?

For example, are the best 10 tracks from an album like Cuban Linx better than Illmatic whereas maybe you feel the full album as it stand now isn't quite as good due to some joints that aren't straight A's?

We are obviously nitpicking here but post up what album you feel would be better and post the 10 tracks you would select.

GO!

I love Wheelz of Steel now, but in the North when that dropped, it wasn't a favorite at all.

It has a different vibe and feel than the rest of the album. Which is fine because it's still cohesive and fits but the increased bpm's sets it apart where I wouldn't mind losing it.

Mine too. I could live with that or Living in the World Today.

>Did you exclude BIBLE because it's Killah Priest?

Yes. Figure with 10 cuts, I'm leaving off songs that don't feature the album's artist. So, like, as much as I like Faster Blade and Assassination Day, I'd leave them off a ten-song version of Iron Man.

Speaking of which...

8. "Ready To Die"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

1. Intro
2. Things Done Changed
3. Gimme the Loot
4. Warning
5. Ready to Die
6. The What
7. Juicy
8. Everyday Struggle
9. Big Poppa
10. Unbelievable

There's enough great songs on this album that you don't need to take up a spot with the intro, but that intro is a classic, sets up the album perfectly and leads into "Things Done Changed" so well that I couldn't leave it off.

BTW great post idea. Gonna make playlists with the condensed versions of a bunch of albums now.

I played the album through the other day and it just feels too long.

After Make 'Em Pay I'm pretty spent so that probably amplifies the distaste for The Mall for some.

Still a classic.

Guru really laid it out there on that ablum, there is a lot of visceral emotion on that album, even in the sample choices. That's what makes it a masterpiece. I can let it ride and I never get tired of hearing it.

that guitar/bass loop is pretty serious. Probably would've been better put to use as a short intro to the song.

Album is hella underrated.

It's always one of those high quality joints that people tend to forget about for some reason.

Supreme display of lyricism and creativity.

Beats ridiculous and most of the production was Monch/Prince Po.

Excellent follow up album to their debut.

What I like most about the album is that it's like "Releasing Hypnotical Gases" expanded in album form.

Dope album for real, and in absolutely no way, overrated.

It is underrated to the masses AND overrated by the underground.

That's what I guess I meant by strangely.

Dope album but I've legit seen it listed as the best album of 1994.

Shit is not on that level.

94 has a ton of great albums. Stress is dope and is in that list but I just shake my head when I see it listed at the top of the list or top 5 because it feels like people do it just to be different.

Right when it came out I loved it and recognized it as a complete statement.
I'll take it over Red's album, Jeru, Method Man and some others. Top 10 rating from an underground head isn't shocking. Top 5 rating just means it resonated with that person more vs some of the other undeniable classics. Similar to Masta Ace's Slaughtahouse which I rate higher than many other classic albums of that time because everything about it just worked to me.

I liked "Inshallah" just a little better. And thought that and the title track made the album really flow at the end. (I haven't listened to "Just About Over" is years)

If illmatic was done the way Nas wanted, it wouldn't be the classic that we love today? They rushed released it due to bootlegging and that's why we got the short tracklist. Knowing Nas history, some duds would've made the cut if he continued working on it lol

There are albums listed that I still don't think are better.

I love Dare Is A Darkside but outside of Can't Wait, that album doesn't reach the highs Illmatic does.

I don't have any links or anything but I could've sworn I read that he had a lot more tracks but that these 10 were the only certainties and once the deadline came he just submitted that.

You're probly right I just always thought otherwise for some reason.

He was signed to Cold Chillin with his group 2 Deep back when Marley was the top producer in Hip Hop, and after they did that album he started doing production/engineering.

I love Stakes is High and think it's classic but agree it could use a *little* trimming, and also agree that BMS is rated higher in their discog because of its brevity. Both amazing albums tho.

I'll have to come back and make my own "top 10" list for Stakes but I may end up just repping yours once I think about it haha.

In response to Reply # 59


          

from the end of Side 1, like Island Degrees, Dinninit, or Dog Eat Dog? They are decent songs, but elevated mostly by the lyrics and delivery. The concepts and beats are kinda vanilla, but Pos and Dave bring it. Hard to imagine those would've stayed on if Prince Paul was still involved. They screamed out that this was a new and more mature De La, for better or worse.

I hated to take off Escape and I prefer the Get On the Mic remix to the original (double that for I Got A Love) but the original fits better on the album.

Considering this is a Pete Rock album I was tempted to remix swap, but that would have gone against the spirit of the post....SPINOFF post!

I had to leave off a few songs I personally love, but that's just a testament to how good this album is.

and honestly there's no real wrong way to do it because those Pete and CL albums don't really have any superfluous songs on them. Everything serves a purpose. I went through this about a dozen times and just settled on the last tracklist I did LOL

I almost did the same thing until read your post, ha!
The I Got A Love remix got mad rotation and ended up on so many mixtapes I made for cats back in the day. For some reason I didn't have the Get On The Mic remix until way later...but gotdamn! The bassline and those Whatnaughts drums are instant headnodders. Might have to make that spinoff post, b....

and that whole albums was just in the middle of PR's remix tear. He did some super wild stuff after that but most people don't really mention it much (like that Respiration remix with Thought replacing Comm).

I'd probably switch out "Tread Water" and **gulp** "Buddy," maybe. Maybe it's because I prefer to the remix to the album version.

...but the problem with that is that the album doesn't have an ending.

Maybe I'd switch out "Ham and Eggs" for "Go Ahead and Rain" and end it on that.

Umi Says is really one of his signature songs and lifts the album to another level especially with the Jordan commercial.

I have a hard time losing that because it adds a different level of artistry to the album and reaches new audiences.

In response to Reply # 156


  

          

and it's funny because the first 3 verses were super ill to me, but I can skip the song and not feel bad. It's something about the presentation that I like a lot less than the parts that make it up.

118. "It Takes A Nation"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

1. Bring the Noise
2. Don't Believe the Hype
3. Cold Lampin
4. Louder Than a Bomb
5. Show em Whatca Got
6. She watch channel zero
7. Night of the living baseheads
8. Black Steel
9. Rebel without a Pause
10. Prophets of Rage

I agree with the argument of albums benefitting from being short and tight ( even if I also really enjoy the attempts at epics spanning into multiple disc range - ie Wu Tang Forever. ) Illmatic certainly benefits from this. Trimming the fat is always a good idea - though that also lessens the chances for deep tracks and opportunities for experimentation. Also one mans throwaway track is another mans favorite track - especially when experimentation comes into play.

That being said - the coffee seems to be working better after flipping through the tracks above! I'm gonna go hurt myself by tryin to break through a wall like the Hulk now.

Fucks wrong witchu!?

1 My World
2 War Games
3 The Chosen One
4 Dangerous
5 Far From Yours
6 Stronjay
7 MUG
8 You And Yours
9 Hypocrite
10 Jewelz

I love every track on this album but to me this is the best mix.

I would've kept Its Only Right over You And Yours but one thing that always bothered me about the album was how hit the title track came in off of Its Only Right due to poor mixing/mastering.

and it's good because it makes you look at the Hip Hop album in a different, and probably more meaningful, way than just the personal perspective of what you like or what you don't. Contrary to popular opinion, there are aspects of art that are quantifiable.

he was on a tear from 95-2000, on the low, with what he was lacing people with. Honestly I'm amazed Rawkus didn't try to lock him in, especially for album cuts.

In response to Reply # 187
Fri Sep-22-17 11:50 PM by Brew

          

... needs to be there but I would hate to see Snoop's intro/the vintage Death Row *jail cell door* "welcome to Death Row" go.

Maybe we can do what Anonymous did with "Stolen Moments 1-3" and just splice the Intro with "Fuck w/Dre Day" (they kinda work together as it is) and get the best of both worlds haha.

In all seriousness I need both "Stranded" and "Lyrical Gangbang" cause Kurupt stole the show (and maybe sneakily the album ???) with his verses on those tracks. Come to think of it, hammam must have an anti-Kurupt bias being that neither track was included in that list ....

where he talked about how a song on one of his albums (i can't remember) was inspired by "let's get high" and how that song captured the LA House Party vibe perfectly and how he wanted to make a song like that.
