2. I never said all it's songs were wack. Most of them were though. Nas Is Like and a few others are an exception.

3. I said he's a stupid piece of shit cos he said Nastradamus is a classic. Anyone who claims to listen to real rap knows it is not.

4. I said those albums "suck ass". This means on a whole they are bad, not every single track.

5. There is a difference between Eminem and Nas. When Eminem comes out with a commercial album, he makes tracks for hardcore fans with lyrical content and meaning, as well as a few singles to sell. Nastradamus and I Am were complete sell-out bling-bling pop albums, on par with "Nellyville" and "Get Rich Or Die Tryin" in musical terms (not vocal). This means pretty much every song was a pop song - it was just a matter of which one would sell the best. On the Marshall Mathers LP for example, Criminal would never work as a single, it is a lyrical song. On "Get Rich Or Die Tryin" 90% of the songs could sell like crazy, because every song was made on the basis of "what will sell" rather than "what is the best". Nastradamus and I Am are by no means THAT BAD but they do fall into the same category.

6. I am NOT hating on Nas. He is my favourite rapper, and Illmatic is my favourite album. I also like Stillmatic, God's Son, and The Lost Tapes. It Was Written is above average.

7. Dez, I don't care if you talk bad about Eminem. He is average and boring these days, I couldn't care less. But he had great lyrics back in the day, but you seem to think that he's is forever gay because he is making money from a few pop singles each album. Your the one who brings him up most of the time with your "anti-Eminem" bullshit.

Oh...God..You seem to lose brainmass each time you post.
Criminal on the Marshall Mathers L.P is not a lyrical song. Everything n that album was made for shock value. Nastradamus does not belong with 50 cent's release or nelly's release. That is dumb...
Oh and N.Y State of mind pt. 2 and Nas is Like are way more lyrical than anything on the Marshall Mathers album. And I find it funny, that like a week ago, you were hopping on em's nuts, and now he's boring. We influence the children, Dez.
