    boyz n the suburbs In my city, I'm a young God

    Jan 31, 2016
    I was talking to a friend earlier, which sparked this idea. People mostly focus on their beef, but not a lot of people really talk about which rapper has the better discography. The Dynasty isn't included for convenience and MCHG isn't included due to Nas not having an album to compete with it.

    Reasonable Doubt vs Illmatic
    Vol. 1 vs It Was Written
    Vol. 2 vs I Am...
    Vol. 3 vs Nasradamus
    The Blueprint vs Stillmatic
    The Blueprint 2 vs God's Son
    The Black Album vs Street's Disciple
    Kingdom Come vs Hip Hop Is Dead
    American Gangster vs Untitled
    The Blueprint 3 vs Life Is Good
    To make it easier, just copy above and bold whichever album you feel is better.

    Overall Jay Z is better... that being said Illmatic and It Was Written are the 2 best albums between the 2 of them
