this opinion may change tomorrow, next week, next year, or in the next 5 minutes. but rest assured this is one of my favorite albums of all time.
I wouldn't put any of the ones already listed into my top albums, Ras Kass is raw but SOI's production was eeehhhh....plus it doesn't have the consistency, like krazee said with illmatic, you could listen to the whole thing straight thru....same with ressurrection....but there were plenty of skippable tracks....I dunno why I'm picking on that album tho....time for some xbox
