He hit a skid in the middle of his career with Nastradamus and such, but since Stillmatic it's been nothing but quality. I didn't know the new one was out yet but I am going to run home now and grab it.

Saden, what did he end up calling it?

Word. Illmatic is dope. Not sure if I could name just one greatest album, but it is definitely one of them.

Just curious, what do Japanese people think is the greatest hip-hop album of all time?

Japanese people have curious taste in Hiphop since it's impossible for them to understand the words (hell, my dad can't understand them and he's American born and bread); so they evaluate it mostly on beat, delivery, and overall attitude. I'm not sure if there is a consensus pick, but they tend to favor Tupac over Biggie (to my consternation) and struggle to get into a lot of older New York style stuff.

Kanye is big, but you are just as likely to hear someone talking about how dope Kris Brown or the Blackhead Peas are.
