ILLMATIC FOREVER

There are alot of new heads in the rap game nowadays.  And that brings along alot of new fans to the frontline. I would like to welcome all of these young bucks to the show and would like to let'all know that Lil Wayne did not start this shit. As part of a history lesson provided by this site, I would like to invite you to reach out and get your grimy ass hands on a copy of this CLASSIC HIP Hop album. Nas just performed on the second night of the San Bernadino edition of the Rock The Bells concert series. I am sure he ripped shit, but I am also sure that there was more than one under 20 in the audience pissed off that Soulja Boy wasn't headlining the show.










I have recently peeped out the VH1 Behind the Music on Nas and found out a few interesting facts on the man named Nas. Did you know that Russel Simmons had the opportunity to sign Nasty Nas to Def Jam and passed. What a big mistake. Or how about the fact that Nas did "NY State of Mind" in one take. That song is a classic and that shit sounds so smooth, its hard to believe. But according to Complex magazine, “If you listen to ‘N.Y. State of Mind’” continued Premier. “You’ll hear him going, ‘I don’t know how to start this shit,’ because he literally just wrote it. Before he started the verse, I was signaling him going, ‘One, two, three,’ and he just goes in.”









Easily one of the Top 5 Hip Hop albums of all time, Illmatic still gets play in the rides of many hip hop fans around the world. And if you happen to run into a youngster that has not heard this album, let that cat listen to yours and lets educate this generation of skinny jean wearing heads.
