Nas- Greatest East Coast Rapper of All Time!!!!

[infinite59]

Best East Coast Album of All Time-  Illmatic

Best East Coast Rapper of All Time- Nas

..........Biggie shouldn't always be regarded as the best just because he died, put Biggies first two albums against Nas's first two and I think Nas is way better.  Big is second best though.  And everybody else is far behind those two.


And this Lost Tapes album is bangin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Now_Im_Not_Banned]

Rakim is the best east coast rapper...Nas put out the best East Coast album though ("Illmatic" of course)...But it's your opinion, and it's not a bad one neither...PeAce

I'm the R the A to the K-I-M
If I wasn't, then why would I say I am

YOu know what's interesting........ Eminem got his line off that......

I Am/
Whatever You Say I Am/
If I Wasn't Then Why Would I Say I Am/

[Sikotic™]

He's off the hook and one of the best. I agree with the other about Rakim being the best though.

As did Nas

Yo, I'm the N the A to the S-I-R
And If I wasn't, I must've been Escobar

Also the 21 emcee theory line from Pete Rock and Eminem

I take seven ill drums put 'em in a line
And add seven more snares to make it combine
It'll take seven more horns before I start to rhyme
Now that twenty-one beats made up at the same time

I take seven kids from Columbine, stand 'em all in line
Add an AK-47, a revolver, a nine
a Mack-11 and it oughta solve the problem of mine
and that's a whole school of bullies shot up all at one time

You could go on forever

I can't decide which east coast MC is the dopest ever, Rakim's  much more consistant than Nas, but "Illmatic"'s the dopest east coast album ever to this day

[Jome]

1. Rakim
2. Jigga
3. Nas
4. Biggie

[=[Euthanasia]=]

Nas is defo in my top 5 MC's/Rappers of all time list, but i'd personally give the crown of the Greatest Eastcoast Rapper/MC to Rakim. I mean if it wasn't for Ra Nas prolly wouldn't be the MC he is today, Ra was a HUGE influence on him and if you listen to his music you can tell, thats why Nas gets compared to Ra alot. I know alot of peeps consider Biggie to be the greatest but he's not for me, he's not even in my top 5 Eastcoast MC's/Rappers to be honest.

[Hittman]

1. Chino XL
2. Nas (For the earlier music & Stillmatic)

[DJ_Jay_Deee]

Please believe Nasty Nas is the king of NY.Illmatic os the best hip hop album ever.  Don't like Rakim anyway.

illmatic is the dope album. iww production is trash besides a few songs. stillmatic was the mediocore comeback. lost tapes is more like a greatest hits cd of old unreleased material.
