Im not sure if this song was remade, but its s dope song from a dope album...

Most wont agree, but IMO "It was written" is a better album than "Illmatic"

I don't agree, but it was a tight album, I don't understand why people hate on it, I guess it's what happened to Snoop on "Doggfather", the first album was too much of a classic. Only bad album Nas made IMO is "Nastradamus"

Message is one of my all time fav tracks btw...didn't know the original was by the police

i dont think nastradamus was a bad album...nas did some experimenting and it just didnt turn out the way nas fans wanted...we all expected too much out of it.

The message is a sick track. Now that I know who did the original, I'll have to download that on kazaa when I get home. I'll still give Illmatic the edge of It Was Written although I liked the production of It Was Written a little more. IMO, Stillmatic is Nas's best LP.
