I felt like that when I was younger but i've study Illmatic i've heard it about ten thousand times and lyrically it's the best album ever made. PRODUCTION I Z also perfect. BIBLE OF RAP! -

IT Was WrittenCan't really compare cause one is a group album and the other is a solo album but It Was Written easily both are classics but It Was Written is something else haha

The InfamousImo The Infamous is the better album.

IT Was WrittenNas one of my favorite rappers, he took his skills to the next level with this
-
The InfamousIta all in the production which is largely due to q-tip because the origianal infamous album does not sound half as good.
Though the 'temperatures rising' is damn near identical except for the chorus which is one of the albums highlights.
Big up havoc -
The Infamouspersonally, the infamous, its grimy as fk. i could probably do with a refresh listening to them both again back to back though
Hell on earth over them both -

Your a follower and thats what the media tells you so you believe it.
In my opinion iww is better production wise and lyrically
Silent murder > any song on illmatic
I gave you power > better than any song on illmatic
I will admit illmatic is a purer form of boom bap hip hop but that does not make it better
Off the wall > thriller
Exact same thing

I can because It Was written was a micro view of the streets and life where illmatic was a macro view. both are dope classic albums in their own right. But illmatic has general statements about life and a young nas really did his thing. However it was written looked at specific deeper micro themes and story's as nas was learning more about life.
"But uhh, a thug changes, and love changes
and best friends become strangers, word up"
That ? is a biproduct of the maturity of nas between illmatic and it was written. Likewise ? like i gave you power and black girl lost are deeper than anything in illmatic. Now you can say the bars and cohesiveness of illmatic was better. But you can't deny nas reached a new level of deph and focus in IWW over Illmatic. -

yeah its a great track, but it really is all good on that album. any album that can afford to leave apostles warning to the end has to be some other level of fire. Whole album has that nightmarish sound to it and still sounds fresh.

The InfamousThese albums are much closer than the poll is showing
-
The Infamousthe Nas stannery is too much on here. It Was written is a great album but The Infamous is a transcendent masterpiece. Hell on earth vs It Was written is a better question.

IT Was WrittenThe Infamous is my favorite Mobb Deep album
