The Blueprint vs. Stillmatic

[tdot04]

I'd like to know which of the two you guys think is the better album. Obviously the two albums are closely related; both were released within months of eachother, Jigga and Nas were feuding at the time, albums contained diss tracks aimed at eachother, and both albums were considered to be pretty solid - better than what they put out previously (better than Vol. 3, Dynasty, Nastradamus, I Am... etc.)

Which album do you favour? (not which diss do you favour, of course, that's been done)

I like 'em both, but I like Stillmatic better. Not as consistent as one would like, but it had a few classic cuts (2nd Childhood, One Mic, Rewind) that I can't ignore.

Hmmm, I thought that said Illmatic... I almost laughed.

lol, yeah, no doubt that's what I would have voted for. But since it said Stillmatic, I have to say The Blueprint. Damn good album! I love "Song Cry" and "U Don't Know"! (y)

Muh, I simply hate him on a different level, not musical.

i say the blueprint.

often immitated never duplicated. (production wise)

The Blueprint. Easily. Stillmatic was built up as an equal, but is far from it.

The Blueprint!!!

Its a classic, Stilmatic is aiii-ight.

having nas dress up in an orange jumpsuit, perched up on a ledge like the pigeon next to him, is cringeworthy. the album itself it patchy.

blueprint wins easily. heart of the city is my jernt. consistent from beginning to end.

Not even close. Stillmatic is 50% filler, although some of the songs are great.

BLUEPRINT, HANDS DOWN.

No its not. Reasonable Doubt I don't even think is a classic.
