This needs to be a video.
Tyler clearly only disses the old school era and says shit like this (going for God's Son over Illmatic for example) just because he knows it gets the old heads backs up and causes his name to be said more. Which to be honest, is quite a good idea to keep yourself in the news. He's been doing it in interviews for over a year now.
Based on his twitter, seems that it's pretty genuine. He seems to really not be a fan of 90s hip hop and older.
I don't see the problem of Tyler having another album than Illmatic as his favorite Nas album. God's Son is a really good album imo, I can bump it front to back.Also,there's nothing wrong with not liking the "golden era" rap either? I acknowledge Gang Starr's, Rakim's etc etc contributions and status in the game, but I don't listen to those albums.
