good answer^
but after Tical, he wasn't too consistent.
i'd probably say Redman instead of Method Man.

I just think that with both of them on top of their game, Method Man takes it.
There aren't many I wouldn't put Redman above, though.

well sorry for the non-descriptiveness.
i meant as in who can you start listening to from any one of his random albums and just be like "wow."
thats it, because you are too stunned and/or blown away to think of anything else.

Agreed. As far as consistently putting out the fire, Jigga has really been the man. I don't know about being the most skillful though... he even admits that hes not playin up to par (if lyrics sold then truth be told id probly be, lyrically, Talib Kweli)
There are too many greats out to just say one guy rules it all. To a point you know like... BDK is in the hall of fame and The Game isn't, but its up to taste at a certain point. I say Common because he been hot from back in the day till right now. Plus, he's stayed true to himself the whole way along

Yea Nas is awsome. Did anyone else find HHID a bit... overstated, though?

I didn't even get that far. Illmatic is the only one that remotely interested me, seems like he got lucky with that album, cos nothing he produced since has been as good.

I really like Streets Disciple. Tell me you don't love that album!!! But I honostly find that Nas is often over rated... he's a great, but he so inconsistent, its a real shame. I think he's gonna come with the hotness on Ni&&a though. He's had a lot of stuff to talk about these lats two years.
