Nay just about right regarding the album.

Don't agree with the AZ hate tho.

Even if you don't think this album is whack it's pretty average. Inconceivable to call it classic.

theres no need to defend IWW... Harlem is the only dude on here that hates on it.

the album is near-classic.
 
Harlem's taste can never be called status quo...Dude knows his music, so I respect his opinion, but this album is a through and through classic to me. You can take the Massacre, I'll bump my AZ till the death.
 
Let's just let this thread die.

Chances are you favorite emcee doesn't have a better album than It Was Written, nor does he have a better record than "I Gave You Power," and he probably doesn't have a better verse than the first verse on "If I Ruled the World."

"slimmer than that %#%$# in calvin klein pants"
 
Watch Dem N's is one of my favorite Nas songs of all time.


"See it's paper I'm adddicted to, wasn't for rap, then I'd be sticking you, the Mac inside the Triple Goose"

"It's mandatory, see that @#%, they hand it to me, I got no game, it just some b's understand my story"

my gator brand is maury
 
#1 - the hook and beat on Watch Dem Ns is wack but Nas goes in

#2 - even with all the fake thuggin there's no way in hellllllll that I AM is better than it was written

#3 - Lyrically, Nas was arguably the illest he's ever been on It Was Written, this was the last full album where you could say lyrically dude was far ahead of any of his peers, Illmatic being the first.  The production and the fake thug !**! killed it, but Nas goes in.
