Stillmatic and God's Son are definitely not classics. Nas has one classic: Illmatic. Funny cause it's definitely one of the greatest records of all time.

I agree and disagree. Classic = definitely longevity, but a lot of 90s albums were definitely instant classics. When Cuban Linx dropped, no one was doubting that it was going to be classic. If an album of that quality would drop today it would definitely be classic, but we all know that won't happen.

About 5 are classics already.

I think you can judge classic status by the impact an album has, when you listen to it everywhere and its the soundtrack to a period in your life. Like someone says 2011, the first thing i think of musically is : classic drake album.
