Very interesting album great lyrics also very melodic

Illmatic is a undeniable classic with records like "The World Is Yours" or "NY State Of Mind" this project shaped the trajectory hip-hop was headed and is and will forever be one of the most influencal hip-hop albums of all time. The lyricsm is outstanding, one of the best out of 80's gangsta rap absolutely unbelivable Nas wrote it when he was just 19.
