wait that makes it sound like I don't like anything before "One Love" when really it's just my favorite song on a totally great album, and the one whose lyrics I have most thoroughly memorized

I am roffling. I'm imagining the Reverend as an Oxford don hitting students' knuckles with a ruler for failure to pay attention.

my favorite part of that album is:
Back in eighty-three I was an MC sparking But I was too scared to grab the mic's in the park and kick my little raps cause I thought niggaz wouldn't understand And now in every jam I'm the fuckin man I rap in front of more niggaz than in the slave ships I used to watch C.H.I.P.S., now I load glock clips I got to have it, I miss Mr. Magic Versatile, my style switches like a faggot But not bisexual, I'm an intellectual Of rap, I'm a professional and that's no question, yo These are the lyrics of the man, you can't near it, understand Cuz in the streets, I'm well known like the number man In my place wit the bass and format Explore rap, and tell me Nas ain't all that And next time I rhyme, I be foul Whenever I freestyle I see trial niggaz say I'm wile I hate a rhymebiter's rhyme Stay tuned, the real rap comes at halftime

my favorite tracks on illmatic are still the large pro ones

i will probably get a beatdown for this, but az's verse on life's a bitch might be my favorite on the album.
― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 20 June 2007 23:56 (eighteen years ago)
i mean it's tied with the first verses of 'ny state of mind' and 'one love' and 'sittin in the park,' but still.
AZ blows Nas away on Life's A Bitch so I won't be beating you down anytime soon. It's my favorite of all time.
