FelonyShineFeb 23, 2003This album is definitely a classic album by a masterful artist. An artist should be rated by his ability to adapt to his circumstances, which are constantly changing. No one does it better than Esco.

MCDishDec 14, 2005I don't know what the critics are talking about, but Stillmatic is still the shit! It's got songs like One Mic, which'll hit you emotionally, cuz it's poignant, and Rewind is like Memento-the-rap song. This album is ingenious, it ain't like all that other pop, bland 50-cent materialism bullshit we hear on everyday radio.

BigDDec 14, 2005Fuck Asia Z, he don't know what he's talking about. Stillmatic is da bomb, and you know it.

AlishaMJan 19, 2006Practically every song on this album is perfect and unskippable. I can't say that for most albums. Classic.

Nov 27, 2010This album brought Nas back to the forefront in Hip-Hop. Aside from maybe one track, this entire album brings that intensity that only Nas can bring.

Apr 30, 2012It's not Illmatic, but that's like saying Othello isn't Hamlet. Just because it's not as good doesn't change the fact that Stillmatic is an amazing album. Weakest track on the album is probably smoking and that's still very good. Though I don't get all the hate on Every Ghetto.
-
Jul 13, 2012GREAT ALBUM. Great compostion, great song matter and of course with Nas' lyrical talent this album goes as far as being an album that truly represents rap for it's originality and purpose.

Aug 1, 2012After Nastradamus, Nas was almost not king of NY. Well with Stillmatic, he redeemed himself and I'd say he still is king of NY and always will be when he is rapping with advanced lyricism, and good production which are two reasons why Nas is the best of the game today. This is the definition of his name Nasty Nas, striking with another classic.

Jan 6, 2016A classic Nas album. Stillmatic is a strong LP that contains some of Nas' greatest songs from the aggressive Jay Z diss "Ether" to the retrospective "What Goes Around", to the creative storytelling in "Rewind". The album only has one dud, and it is "Braveheart Party", however, everything else is greatness.

Sep 23, 2016if you don't like this then stop being a nob head, this album is great lyrical and all the beats make me cum, jay z is a overrated **** big up little t
-
Nov 17, 2017CLASSIC, the only word to describe this masterpiece. Nas showed he still had it and always will. Ether will go down as one of the greatest most vicious diss record of all time.

Feb 28, 2020Visualising the realism of life and actuality
crud whos the baddest a persons status depends on salary
and my mentality is money orientated
been destined to live the dream for all my peeps who never made it
we were beginners in the hood as 5 percenters
but something mustve got in us cause all of us turned to sinners -
Aug 19, 2021Nas risen from the dead with this masterpiece. It was an silencer to all the criticism that he was receiving from his competition
-
DonovanCMay 20, 2004This album is just sick! This is how your suppost to come back after a downfall. He came back aggressive and deep. Tracks 1-14 are ill. I think any rapper who can rap a whole song backwards makes an instant classic. Best rapper alive!!!!!!!!NAS

Stillmatic is all the proof anyone needs that Nas isn't as special as he was five years before the album's release.
-
BlenderA surprising return to form. [Feb/Mar 2002, p.114]
-
VibeIt's infuriatingly inconsistent.... But this album's bittersweet beauty lies in the fact that Nas cares. [Feb 2002, p.120]
