why does eveyone hate on post-illmatic?

[SHEEPISH LORD OF CHAOS]

yo to be honest i thin street's disciple is da shit yeah there were some shitty songs on there like the slow ones but overall it was pretty good at least 4.5 mics and God son is my fuckin album right there everything Stillmatic, Iam..,It was written are all great fuckin albums but illmatic is his best work to date most jay-z fans won't even admitt it

NYSM II blew me the fuck away. When i bought that cd a saw he made another verson i went nuts. An album i never here people talk about of his is "the death of Escobar". He redid 'take it in blood' (that last verse in the orginal is one of his best) and it sounded great. The man will never fall off; and just like Jordan wanted to play baseball; Nas wants to make the music he makes and they are both the Kings of the game. so just take it for what it is worth

Nas lyrically is always a beast, he always brings it. But the production after illmatic has been struggling. The Jordan comparision is good, but I would relate it to when he went to the Wizards. Even a key player has to surround himself with at least someone decent. I guess it goes with they saying your only as strong as your weakest link. Nas didnt fall off, but he has fallen completely away from the classic bangers by Premier making a lot of his songs/albums unlistenable.

To me all that niggas joints was hot except Nastradums. God Son caught a lot of niggas of balance but I still think it was NAS thought he just came at niggas from a different perspective. Streets D' shouldve been a single disc but it was still hot. I thought he was coming with the Lost Tape 2
