Ok so I know first thing that y'all are gonna say is "why isn't this in the music section"
Illmatic is more than music for real, its a lifestyle, its education. Its a way of living
A lot of people were raised off this album. A young Nas spilled his E&J and Becks pumping heart out onto these tracks and massaged so much flavor and style into this ****.
This album reflected NYC on a whole during this area. I'm talking about piss in project hallways, 10 year olds selling crack, graffiti all over the place. i'm talking about copping gold teeth from Jamaica Coliseum Mall!!..Im talking $1 slices of pizza on Flatbush ave!!..Green BMW 7s riding down the block with the sunroof down and you and your boy sitting on y'all porch drinking quarter waters pointing talking bout "That's my car!"
Im talking about SUNRISE CINEMAS IN GREEN ACRES MALL *flex bomb*
Vintage Ralph, Figaro Chains, Army fatigues
The Album was just a reflection of an era on a whole for real for real
Now we got grown *** men doing the nae nae with pixie stick residue still on the sides of their lips and old taffy taffy stuck between their teeth
